Moztrodamus

Well this wasn't that hard to call, but to get the turning point right, takes some doing:

"Well de Jongh, who has a test tackling success rate of 93.5% is back, and no doubt the Stormers' defence will be as tightly sealed as a can of Dr Pepper. And all of those flippy Brumbie passes look like interception material with Aplon, de Jongh and the Jean ready to pounce."

The Stormers were good value for their win, although it was in doubt until van den Heever's interception. Aplon was spendid, as was Jean. Van den Heever is a test quality wing who needs some support. De Jongh looked a little rusty....but he and Jean get up so fast. It's structure not necessarily heavy tackling that disrupts an opponent.

To me Jantjies, whose aimless second half kicking got the Stormers in trouble was the only problem. He did hold his pass well though for Bekker's try. Taute did some good things and some clumsy things.

In the pack Bekker is now playing to his awesome full potential. That rip tackle of George Smith shows the strength of this man. The rest of the pack were very good, Kitshoff excepted....he gifted the Brumbies crucial points. Kolisi had a good first half but was wobbly in the tackle in the second.

And once again George Smith outplayed another aspirant Bok fetcher on the deck. Coetzee and Kolisi just aren't test material.

I accept your version - but have to point out a few things.   Coetzee was not playing in this game - or did I miss something there?  

De Jongh was not rusty - he was just playing his normal sub-par game.   He missed two tackles and the commentator spoke about a third one.   He also knocked on 2 balls and that is fairly standard with him.   Not test material at all and never will be.

My main problem with Kolisi was his determined effort to gift the Brumbies a win.   I counted that he gave away three penalties and he knocked on a crucial ball as well.  Just not good enough.

Taute was on for a short time and I was somewhat disappointed by him.   Kicks directly into touch is just not on and cost loss of territory in games.

Ou Maaik still beating his drum after his early mouth embarrassment...hahahaha!  I was reminded of this song which seems to fit your circumstances:

Did they beat the drums slowly?
Did they play the fife lowly?
Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the Last Post in chorus?
Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest?

Keep to rugby responses - after all this is a rugby sight = not one for quoting verse as n escape mechanism.  Why no response to the strictly rugby commets by me?

"Moztrodamus", wehe!

What a pathetically needy and attention-seeking post!

"Hey, look at me everyone, I actually got something right for a change . . . well, I'm going to pretend I got something right anyway . . . but look at me! Hey, why aren't you all looking at me? I'm Moztrodamus! I can see the future! Hey guys, why is no-one listening to me? I was right about something guys! Hey, guys . . . listen . . . why is no-one listening to me?"

Moffie, you never fail to surprise me. You always manage to make yourself look like a bigger dick than even I imagined . . . and trust me, that barely seems possible!

"Moztradamus"! LMAO! That is a keeper!

Bwaaaaahaha ...RooiAaas you couldn't look like a bigger dick than you already are . At least you think I still have some margin.  But hey,given your prediction for Bok losses against the Lions and in the RWC 07.....I can understand how sour you feel watching not only correct prediction, but precise pin pointing of the element that makes for a mighty Stormers victory.

Moffie, first off, please point me to where you predicted a Stompies victory. Spare me all the sputtering and the obfuscation, just put up a link to where you predicted this result ("predicted" as in before the game). Thanks.

Secondly, it wasn't actually that hard to predict. I know you think you're pretty special and important but before you puff yourself up too much, I also predicted a Stompies win this weekend . . . but the difference is, I made my prediction on Superbru so mine is very simple to prove and there for all to see. As I recall, you were too much of a coward to enter any prediction or fantasy comp and it looks to me like your "predictions" are more like "postdictions" again.

Finally, the real compliment being paid in this little exchange is the fact that you have to go back 6 years to the 2007 RWC to find a wrong prediction (or should I say, allegedly wrong prediction) of mine. Pffffffhahahahaha!

Looks like Moztrodamus has been pwned yet again! But of course, being able to see into the future, you knew you were going to get pwned, didn't you Moffie? LMAO!

You will find this under the Rubik cube link....not only did I predict this, but also said it wouldn't be close. Enjoy:

"Jake's intemperate statements will chill the ice in Stormers veins and fill them with resolve. Frankly I can't see this even being close. The Sardines embarrassed SA rugger guys with their woosie display. The Stormers will restore some pride."

Game, set and matchahahahahaha!

Oh, I see. Thanks. If I didn't see your prediction earlier it's because it was on a thread you started. I normally only read your drivel when you post on other people's threads.

Anyway . . . wow! What a visionary! The only person in the word who predicted a Stompies win this weekend . . . Moztrodamus! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha!

Sorry to be the one to burst your little bubble, Moffie, but note that 66.66% of Superbru players in our conference predicted a Stompies win and note that not one of them is jerking away on his dick pretending he's some kind of soothsayer or calling themselves "Sasukadamus", "Oimatadamus" or ""Bobbokadamus" or anything like that. 

I realize you don't often get things right but running around punching the air and demanding that everyone recognizes your ability to see into the future seems a bit sad when two thirds of this board actually made the same prediction on Superbru . . . but don't let me stop you celebrating!

Game, set and match . . . pfffffffffffffffhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! "Moztrodamus" indeed!

Children, children, put aside your personal vendettas against each other and do something constructive!

Look RooiAAAS you sad lush....nobody was celebrating predicting a win by the Stormers, most rugby folks with a brain expected that. The point was this comment:

"And all of those flippy Brumbie passes look like interception material"........  a prophetic prediction and the turning point of the match.

So before you try this again, get off the booze and read the posts. I'm bored with beating you like a drum.  

Don't worry Moffie, I'd also be a bit embarrassed if I was shrieking about how wonderful I was and calling myself Rooinekadamus only to find that two out of every three people had made the same prediction as me.

ROTFLMAO!!!

So now you can't read the bits in bold....huh? Look why dontcha accept you are on the deck again and keep lying down loser.

What amazes me, Moztrodumbass, is that with your ability to see into the future, you knew you were going to be exposed as an ignorant and pompous old fool yet you went and talked yourself up anyway!

Too funny for words!

 Exposed how?

Moz you rpredictions were pretty sound this week. However one point is that de Jongh should not be there in place of Allende. Allistair is also getting it wrong in not playing Fourie at 6.

I really hope Taute gather some momentum. If he is firing at 15 and we have Allende at 13 we will be better off.

Oh for Schalk and Etzebeth to return to fitness and form.

Have  to say though that Steenkamp has done us proud. Real workhorse. I am also very impressed with Kitshoff and the amount of tackles he puts in. He was unjustly penalised at scrum time on more than 1 occassion as Mallet pointed out.

Bekker has been awesome and has showed he is a far, far superior player to wee matfield as I have always said.

I also agree that Catrikillis should never have been released.

I do hope ou rooitwi is going to up his game sometime!

Beeno forever living in hope!

Moffie, I must be honest, I always thought English was your first language, but if not then I suggest that you run this thread through one of the online translation services or else get someone who understand English to help you out.

Just to recap, you were exposed as being the kind of sad and pathetic loser who gets so excited and joyful when he gets a single (pretty straightforward) prediction right that he puts up an entire post to celebrate the fact while calling himself "Moztrodamus". . . which has to be the most lame, boastful and pompous name anyone on this board has ever given himself.

Rooitwit my guess is if you had ever got it right like Moz did you probably wouldnt be so green with jealousy!

Bwahhahahahahahaha

Hope you are doing well rooitwit!  I ahve bought some brilliant books by John Lennox. Science has buried atheism is the only conlcusion that can be arrived at. The poor atheists are on the intellectual rack. Hahahahaahhahahaha - one reason is the information coded into the Human Genome (written in a 4 letter language over 3 billion characters long . Its all over rooitwit. Finished. Just a moping up excercise really but some irrational atheists simply refuse to accept the scientific evidence now available.

Mozart, Good thread. Fair reflection of what happened. Bekker is playing some great rugby, just not happy with him going to Japan, the boks need him.He also needs to stay injury free.

Dejong was rusty....thats it, he will be better as the season goes on. The same can go for Taute who as you said did some good and some really stupid things.

Thanks 107. I was delighted to see the interception prediction work out. What de Jongh brings to the party is a very tight defensive line......and Jean was very comfortable back at 12.
