Hieneke Meyer: 3 time winner of Super Rugby,
and the Springbok coach with the 3rd best win
ratio for all tests played so far.
Saffex: A self proclaimed expert that can
identify future talent from players within the
Springbok under 21 squad or provincial squad
lists in the pre season.
The man who brought us Eztebeth.
A freedom fighter against Apartheid from his
shack in England. The coach of his sons rugby
team. It seems his son plays both school and
club level as a 14 year old.
Saffex "the legend" was forced to give up
the game when his collar bone was broken
by Hennie Leroux - who later transpired to
be his own team mate.....
Otherwise Saffex would have made the Bok squad
that won in 1995 in place of Brendon Venter or
even Henie Leroux. Saffex invented the
crash ball play in his hey day, even though
he now coaches an expansive style of play.
Also an avid boxer who strives to be the best
at what ever he does.
Is known to all show up at bars with out a
jacket and stinking.
Saffex says: "Meyer, why are your selections
allways wrong"? They are insulting to the
rugby public.
You are selecting washed up has beens like
Bryan Habana, Fourie Dupreez, Victor Matfield
Meyer says: "Bryan Habana is the best wing
in the word, FDF is the best scrum half in SA and perhaps the world,
and Victor Matfield proved at SuperXV in 2014
he still has what it takes.
Matfield was given man of the match on many
occasions and got extensive praise from
commentators, journalist and former players
in all 3 countries this year.
He is the best lineout jumper in the world,
great at kick offs and his work rate is good.
South African teams score most of our tries
from the lineout so it is imperative that we
dominate this phase of play.
Matfield may not be the most physical lock
around but given that our loosies are bigger
than other countries, it is not something that
should effect our play. Also most of our best
young locks are number 4's. Matfield won more
man of the matches in SuperXV this year than
any other lock, so he is the form player.
Saffex: JJ is was our best prospect since
Danie Gerber at outside centre that I
identified FACT.
Oh, and I am not comparing them because
I only said best "prospect".
Meyer: Actually I identified his potential to
be an outside centre. I brought him to the
Bulls as a wing and converted him to a centre.
Saffex: Why do you let all our young players
leave South Africa:
Meyer: I can only select a team of 30 players,
not the 200 that you want in the squad.
Many of your players are not 1st choice players
for their regions, and when they go overseas are
also not first choice club players.
Saffex: Where is Elton Jantjies.
Meyer: In Japan
Saffex: The modern game requires a player to
run into space and not into a defender.
Meyer: Are you saying that rugby used to
not require space?
Saffex: What are you a conservative stupid fool
that is not in touch with the modern game.
You are an ignorant idiot.
Meyer: What?
Saffex: You are too stupid to understand rugby.
I should be coaching the Springboks not
my sons school club team.
Meyer: Ha, Ha, Ha...
Saffex: You Dutchman. where is your kaki shorts..
Saffex: I am going to Puke on your Bok squad and support New Zealand and Australia.
I hope they win so that you have to change
your team each week with the newest players.
If I was involved in South African rugby I
would fire all of the coaches.
We have the best rugby depth in the world
and it only requires the correct (my) team
selection to beat the All Blacks.
