Imagine being blamed for a try when you aren't even on the park. This from the addled brain of OOm Maaik:
" However, he played Alberts - who had only 3 Super 15 games, but under-performed in all three he played in. Selections like those are the death of SA Rugby - we cannot have under-performers and expect miracles. I think that if we had a more mobile and more balanced loosie with better defence credentials - there would have been very little chance for Messam scoring his second try just after the siren went and also of Read not been tackled and the consequential try of Ben Smith be averted."
A good theory, but poor Alberts had been stretchered off 5 minutes before.
