Nominees for SA rugby player of the year

Eben

Ox

PSDT

Kolbe

Strange that such shit players like PSDT and de Allende were nominated

Kolbe wins player of the year

Rassie coach of the year

Boks team of the year

Sacha young player of the year

JJ junior player of the year

Nohamba URC player of the year

Renzo du Plessis CC player of the year

All the players are shit, the team is shit and Rassie is both lucky and useless

Good call on Cheslin . . . the player Moffie said would never make it as a test winger!

LMAO!

And JJ? And Rassie? Was it possible for Moffie to get even more egg all over his stupid, fat face?

I wouldn't have thought so . . . but , , ,

Not more than the weakling who called Erasmus an opportunist before the WC final and then heaped praise on him after he beat a NZ team playing a man down by one point.

The same Bok side that has just beaten the AB’s four times in a row - once by 1 point the other a Bok record against the AB’s

Game set and match as always

At least Rooi was man enough to admit he was wrong about Rassie - you could learn something from Rooi

Respect to Rooi

For the record, this is what I said about Kolbe:

The same height as Shane Williams, Kolbe gave a more than perfect imitation of the Welsh stepper at Cardiff. He was virtually impossible to stop in space, bamboozling up to 4 tacklers in one run. Yes but, is the reaction to his virtuoso performance....but he is too small. Yet he took high balls well and brought down bigger opponents reliably.

In a toothless backline he is certainly an attacking weapon and a refreshing departure from the behemoths. Is he a WC weapon? Maybe not, but he did damn well this year apart from one instance where he flew inside on defence, something of a new Bok trademark.

Kolbe has vision, is as fast over the first 30 metres as any player in the game and has perhaps the best step in the game....and he is smart. Credit to Rassie for taking a risk on his potential.

Ummmm . . . this is what you said about Cheslin Kolbe before he applied all that egg to your face and you changed your tune:

" Is Kolbe really going to work out as a test wing? I doubt it."

Are you denying you said that, liar?

I can’t remember that specifically, but I had some doubts Kolbe was big enough to succeed in modern test rugby. So yes I could have said that. But when was that Time Stamp, based on the above posting, maybe earlier in 2018?

And then there’s this in my post on the 2019 WC final:

’And really all the backs were good today. Allende was solid apart from a bad miss on May in the English in goal. Am showed great touch in the Mapimpi try. And while Kolbe's try was huge, even better was his smother tackle on Lawes when England had a big overlap. Willie found his mojo with one smart early break and fine general fullback play.’

….

Seems I have been supportive for a long time.

Saf, don't you think Rassie is useless?

I mean why does he choose such crap players!
