Newbie Here

I am new here and with some trepidation as I see that new people are not very welcome here and are easily scolded and pointed at as spies etc.  I come in peace and want to talk rugby with like-minded people.

Some comments on this site have my hair standing on end, but I know not the history so I will not comment.

1. Super Rugby:  The log will be topped by the Chiefs - the Stormers - the Brumbies as leaders of their conferences and we will have the likes of the Crusaders and the Bulls in the mix as wild cards.

2. Springbok Rugby:  Hell, how quick does the mob turn on the coach?  He has not even begun to assemble a team and already he is being scolded and sworn at.  Those with the big mouths should probably apply for an assistant jobby as it seems you've got more knowledge that the incumbent coach! 

Hey there Lunatic.

Just remember bieng new here does not in any way reflect on what you know. so feel free to state your mind.

Regarding your Super rugby comment. I will reserve judgement, for another 2 weeks depending on how the two teams you have mentioned do.

Sprinkbok coaches will always have their detractors, part and parcell to the job, if you expected wnything else I believe you might have been living in dreamland. Even Kitch Cridtie had his detractors(not many I daresay) and he had an unbeaten record.

Lunatic, judging by your name and opening post, coming in peace and being a tranquil bystander will be anything but...............welcome and enjoy the ride. As for Meyer, he will need a kick up the arse if he is going to load our Bok side with a bunch of hasbeens. Its time for Bok rugby to move on and he needs to embrace that...........failing which we will continue to languish at 4 or 5 in the world rankings

Welcome Lunatic! :)

I'm a noob as well, and have seen some of the "drama" on here. Guys are fine though. Just be honest, and state your opinion in a civil manner and you will be fine. Everyone has excepted me. Remember, it's just the internet. Try to think of it as sitting around having a few beers, and talking rugby.

 Thanks for the welcome!  And so I shall do, speak my mind and hope that the civility is reciprocated. However, reading some of the back posts it seems as if there are some clear self-image problems floating around.  Try as we might we shall endeavour to respect the “expert opinions” of the people.

 Just agree with me and all will be well with you!!!!!!!!

Hi there Lunatic,

You have stated your intention and are so welcome to this site and forum. As it has already been mentioned, state your case, be polite and everything will be fine. Good luck...

Lunatic all are welcome here whether you come in peace or not - I suspect you come here to stir which is fine but I would be happy if you could give us your ss board name.

Some comments on this site have my hair standing on end, but I know not the history so I will not comment.

Bwahahahahahaha you know not the history. What a laugh!!!!

1. Super Rugby:  The log will be topped by the Chiefs - the Stormers - the Brumbies as leaders of their conferences and we will have the likes of the Crusaders and the Bulls in the mix as wild cards.

A possibility

2. Springbok Rugby:  Hell, how quick does the mob turn on the coach?  He has not even begun to assemble a team and already he is being scolded and sworn at.  Those with the big mouths should probably apply for an assistant jobby as it seems you've got more knowledge that the incumbent coach! 

It seems you are a bulle supporter? Well  time to get your head out of the sand and acknowledge that ou Meyers plans to reinstate victoria, du Preez, danie Rossouw and use all the bulle coaching staff including vodacom backline coach Loubscher smacks of blue/pink madness. Only a lunatic would do that surely!

I have had high hopes for Meyer I am hoping he is not going to be another pdv!!!!

 God you are paranoid and an obvious screwball with some sort of agenda against new posters.  Are you the site owner?

ADMIN: Please explain to me what the SS is the poster is talking about?  I am already wondering if it is worth debating with posters here because if this is how you lot treat a newbie the God help the newbies.

Ignore Beeno, the bloke is paranoid and the lift dont go to the top floor!!!!!

And the hamster has fallen off.

Newbies are welcome Lunatic, as I and others have stated, unless you reading ability is impaired you should have understood that. Bwahahahaha some lifts haven't made the ground floor they are stuck in the lowest part of the basement!!

We have had a number of moles here already so the possibility is distinctly there that there will be more. Time will reveal the truth.

LOL at Ceradyne! Posting is a battle and always will be. No friends here just opponents. LOL

Hey Beeno1, I normally like your posts even though I don't always agree with them, but dude, you are sounding a little paranoid. Who cares if there are moles anyway, we can just out argue them...

Nah opposing points of view and a good laugh is the order of the day bluebok.

Diversity is the key and that is why I welcomed even a lunatic and even if he came to stir. Poor oak thinks he has not been welcomed. So again I say welcome lunatic!

""Ignore Beeno, the bloke is paranoid and the lift dont go to the top floor!!!!!""

With lift you mean an elevator?  'Cause I cannot see anyone giving him/her a lift.

 With the green grass at the bottom here, there could well be moles....

You are probably right bluebok, its just the lack of honesty and deviousness of it.  If I wanted to go back to ss board I would have to use an alias. No need for that there.  Why use an alias here?

I trust ou saffex will not get after you because of your views on the one dimensional victor. Hehehehehehe - how far up does your lift go stuff!

Yes lunatic there have been and one may have taken down this site earlier this year .

Who do you support as a team?

Correction....newbies are very welcome. Thinly disguised interlopers aren't.

Elegantly put DR Moz. I do hope they go and look up the word paranoia as clearly they have no idea as to its proper meaning.

Beeno the mole exterminator and nemisis of moles - dealing only in realities!
