Red Rose 

Name me one pertinent good  thing Estehuizen did  and I will give  you 3 where he failed badly.   He is still the same as he was in 2018 and 2019 leading to his omission from the WC squad.   When they needed a backup player in 2019 they correctly called up Willemse.

I do not think that Etehuizen will make it into the Rugby Championship squad.

Ja, I s was hoping for so much more from this game. A bit naive from me but I did notice the large amount of duds in the team to. But thought we would get at least two scores ahead. 

Gelant was abysmal, so was Esterhuizen.

I think Niena and Co game plan is based a very pragmatic approach that doesn't allow talented players to use their gifts. Only those players that play in the system succeed.

Etzebeth had a brain implosion towards the end.

Hendriks and Pollard seemed solid

Great clearance kicks from Hendrikse.

Pollard had some excellent runs

Gelant was guilty of closing out space and not bring the wings into play. 

Fassi jus went awol 

Nyakane offered nothing

Thomas the tank was solid, but got pulled of way to early.

Kick for stupid Knockon to end the game with the boks in a prime position

This change was too drastic and very unfair on the players.

This is not how you build depth or a winning culture.

We are heading back to the dark days of Coetzee

Only one player in my estimation deserved a 7 and that was Marx the rest mostly deserve 3 or less except for Pollard and Hendricks.

Gelant is no Springbok he was useless in the final against the Bulls and he was just as useless against Wales.

No wonder the Bulls let him go.

This squad is a non starter for the WC.

Old and over the hill with no new real talent to replace the old men.

The hooker and front row player (in the second half) who the F--- choose them, useless.

 Koch was no better.

Kolbe fooled people into thinking Rassie's Bok side actually has a few rabbits to pull out of the hat.

No Kolbe, no rabbits.

Not even a hat.

You are on the money AJH. For me most responsibility has to rest at team selection. Arrogant it was to put all those new lambs onto the field expecting them to find their games and act as a cohesive unit. At least half that team has no business ever wearing the Springbok jersey. Hopefully a valuable lesson in humility with a helping oh humble pie for the coaching team a year and a bit out from RWC!

Gelant was class. You dope fucks don't know flair if it hit you in the face with a sledgehammer. Was smart and solid. A lot of things were better. Fuck me. A little light at the end of the tunnel and you stupid fucktards are ready to throw in the towel. Get a grip. 
Rooinek, go fuck yourself with a spear. End of.

Dud Toit a 7.5….poor lineouts, poor tackling, penalties conceded….no penetration on the run. The only good thing he did was one offload.


Totally overrated.


Fassie, Kriel, Gelant and Arendse…..showed nothing.

Pollard, Marx and Etzebeth were our best players.

Roos looked nicely physical….but never really made things happen.

Coetzee and Dud Toit were nothing burgers.

I would rather have nothing burgers like Du Toit on the field than duds like Mo0stert and Wiese.

Roos got dragged around in contact. Ebenezer was dominated and was doing illegal shit. Gelant is a good playmaker the only one actually. Elstat is a brute knocked the shit out the wallies. Marx is overrated but had some good breakdown moments. Opensider?
