I don't know what to say about the game I just watch but I wasn't convinced that we are heading in the right direction. Yet again it was the old firm and tired game plan.


Forward forward forward dominance. Only up to the 75th we were able to pull away. Kwagga is not a started. The back row looked poor but our back three was awful. To hunk Willie is still our fist pick 15 and Fassi offered nothing.


Rassie need to start winding down and time for new blood.


What was even more shocking was Stick taking Rassie spot in the team photo and Fassi getting picked.


I think there are political forces at play here once again.


Sorry Rassie, you got to caught up with the politicians and now they are coming for you.


I predict a drubbing in New Zealand


Pollard, Etzebeth and Kolbe can't keep saving us

Today's game could have gone either way. Four injuries and suddenly we have a patchy side that struggles to beat an equally patchy and error ridden Wallabies. Everyone's talking about NZ who's still blowing hot and cold and struggling to figure out exactly how they want to play the game, but I'd be worried about Argentina as well. The Argies can take this RC if they get their shit together - the Big Three are all facing challenges at the same time like probably never before in the competition.

Well, last season the boks had a chance to have a clean sweep of the Championship only to throw it away with Libbok missing a sitter.


Yesterday, it was another disjointed performance. I don't see how Rassie is going to get synergy into this team. We are well on out way. Now have to travel to NZ and try to figure out what team we going to put out. Dud killed all backline play and Kriel form has dropped a lot over the last two games.


Every game we end up with more answers and having to look at these tires players trying to slug it out.


RG was the right choice to start and Even in the bench is probably better.


Mostert must now be done for, once and for all
