Plumtree never said that.

Its all shit fake news.

I mean honestly. How gullible and dumb are some of you.


He did not say it exactly like that...and I don't have either the time nor the inclination to research it right now, but I can recall Plum being unhappy about Fransie's weight and fitness at some stage and he voiced his concerns in the media. 


I like Fransie and I don't share the view of his bashers, but he was a source of controversy over the years...and although I don't agree with Maaik's and Saffex's stance on the man, not everything they say about him is wrong either.

Mozart

Which game was that one you quoted the stats on and in what position did Steyn play in the match?   He never played at center when De Allende started and the latter was never replaced by Steyn - so lets have the info, please.

Well ... Fransie boy is on his way to 40 ... and as we all know, one's metabolism takes a bit of beating around that time ... and so with his love of take aways and large sodas, he's bound to have stuffed his face during this time and picked up a ton of weight.

I'm expecting to see Fat Fransie return with a boep that covers his belt ... chubby thighs ... as well as a double chin.

He lost his ability to play rugby a decade ago. I seriously don't understand why some of you are so excited to see this hyped up hasbeen on the field again. De lendie is a better option.

We already know what he'll bring to the park. Drop shots from his own 22 that'll go woer woering into the grandstands ... head high tackles ... hogging the ball ... turning ball over ... and plodding along at full speed like Mike when he's off to get batteries for his power tool.

You know you're in trouble when Fat Fransie is considered the best you have.

Wanker why do you always humiliate yourself like this? Haven’t you  learned yet that when other posters say something you think is wrong you should check first before making your usual bombastic statements?

Frans started as inside centre against Canada and Dud was started at 13. As you can see from the numbers above Steyn was much livelier than Dud.

Say you’re sorry.

Against Canada - what a joke - that is what I expected,  Steyn was inside center handling 19 balls which included 9 passes by him and 10 carries - De Allende passed the ball 3 times and carried it 4 times.   The average carry gains were very similar, 4,9 meters per carry and 3,75 meter per carry,  

However, in that game there was another problem  encountered iro Steyn - his tackle stats was horrendous - 4 tackles made  3 missed for an MTR of  42.85.  That  is another proof that he cannot play in Springboks teams other than perhaps against Canada and Namibia.

One of the Canada players were red-carded at minute 36 after which the Springboks ran riot.  I would never advocate that game for comparison purposes.

Damian is not a test quality player. He is a very poor Super rugby player. In fact, I saw several Currie Cup games where he was still poor. Vodacom Cup? There's no comparison. Dud1 has been a clog in the pipe for years and years. Just when we got over Lambie and co we get Dud1 and Dud2. The Boks are cursed, must be the 666 on their jerseys in honour of their Knights of Malta 33 degree Mason and sellout/terrorist Mandela.
