Clearly, only a genius could have planned for 4 scrum penalties in 15 minutes and a 50 m kick through driving rain…the man is amazing.
We're winning the close contests we normally lost in the past...and under Rassie the Boks have proven that we can beat any opponent anywhere in the world...we are much better than we were 4 years ago....GO BOKKE!!!
Yes number one in the world and in the final. But Doos insists on trashing Rassie and the Boks and fake Bok supporter Mozzzzz says nothing.
Dave these two have been the biggest mamparas posting here for some time.
Hahahahahaha.
Clever as long as we don’t have a scrummie injury….or an injury to Pollard. Yes we have players who can step into those roles….but they are not regulars at scrum half or goal kicking and would be required in those roles under maximum pressure.
Do we really need 5 locks in the team? Twenty % of our team are locks.
Rassie the "genius" . . .
Just about everything Rassie has done up to this point has been the opposite of genius, it's been downright moronic.
Picking 4 scrumhalves in the initial squad (and then not even putting a 2nd scrumhalf on the bench in the final), replacing the injured Mapimpi with Lukhanyo Am when we desperately needed a hooker (and then not giving Am even a minute game time), the kick-and-hope game plan (when we have so much talent in our backline), the 7-1 split on the bench for the final of a RWC game . . . just about every inportant decision has been botched . . . yet we've made it to the final through a combination of luck and having such a good pool of players to choose from.
If we play anything even resembling the kind of game we played against England in the semifinal then the All Blacks are going to put 30 points over us.
Yet, for all that, let me just say that if we win - however we win and by whatever margin - I will take back all my criticism of Rassie and proclaim him a rugby genius.
Go Bokke!!!
Rassie is in love with Rassie.
The more I see, the more I believe that Erasputin is the coaching version of Luke Watson.
