It's quite telling, even with a game ahead of Australia and New Zealand, the Boks are bottom of the pile for offloading. 

  1. Australia (17)
  2. Argentina (14)
  3. New Zealand (10)
  4. South Africa (4)
I'm not one of those who advocate throwing the ball around recklessly, but I do say that we need to be able to get over the gainline and continue the attack with offloads when appropriate to really pressure the opposition. In Esterhuizen and RG we have the two best offloaders in the game, and the likes of Pollard, Wiese, Am, Mostert et al are more than capable themselves. What we have been witnessing is the full horror of Stompie ball: Stodgy phase play. Run-Crash-Ruck rinse and repeat. Yesterday, the Boks tried to open the game up and looked utterly hopeless ball-in-hand. Even some of our better attackers like Pollard and Willie have looked very ordinary. It's a worrying concern that the Boks are regressing. Sooner rather than later this is going to take its toll. We can't hide in South Africa forever. For metres per carry, the Boks are in at number three, behind Australia and New Zealand. Worrying trends.

It's an upside down world the Org lives in.

Players who do well are in his opinion no good.

Astonishung stuff from the Org.

Players who do well? Who has done well that I have said isn't good? Low standards is your problem Herr Sitzsack.

Hell Harrassmus has eliminated clean breaks from the game plan:

NZ …14

Oz…..8

Bargies…5

Boks…4

And we have been playing against the Bargies with a Niagara of good ball!

Dave

You should by now know what they will say  - the opposition was so weak even the shit Springboks  managed to beat them.   I counted a total of 7 threads started by either the Kindergarten Imbecile or Mozart  all comprising of total BS  and  respond ed to one or two  of those  - the rest of those were repetitive BS.

Are you telling me that a concern that we are continuing 8% of all offloads in the competition with a game more than two competitors is devoid of common sense? Do explain Sitzsack.

Looking back at past discussions, it's actually quite remarkable. Everything Meyer was criticised for, Josè is. They are literally are eating up the incarnation of everything they claimed to hate, that which no intelligent person could ever accept. Amazing. Aimless kicking, limited game of the lowest quality. Stunning.
