What now chaps, it’s so bad it’s just not worth commenting on really…..all we can hope and pray for is that Coetzee and his band of chimps get the boot, for nothing he does moving forward will improve things……not only is he out of his depth as a coach, more so than even PDV was, there is no chance in hell the players respect him as a coach after his 11 tests in charge
Where to now
I think they need to go out far into the veld somewhere
Somewhere where there is a nice scenic lake with some underground caverns
Then they need to dress up like Lions and give Coetzee his Springbok attire to wear, then give him a two hour head start, all the while knowing that it will take at least 12 hours to reach any civilisation on foot.
Then, they need to systematically hunt him down as a collective and once he is caught, force him to watch all these losses over and over and over until he cries for mercy and admits he is out of his depth at this level .
That should build some team spirit, and maybe, just maybe, when hunting him down, make them work as a team for once.
Bobby Skinstad has tweeted the following
"First, Springboks need an administration cleanout, an identity and positioning reset, then would benefit from a NZ/AB coach"
I do think that the way to go would be to hire a foreign coach - eg Plumtree - or go back to Rassie Erasmus.
Unless the coach issue is settled and the Government interference is ended and players selected on merit there is no future for rugby in SA. I would support the Springbok team if I am sure only the best players - irrespective of race - is selected. If the Springboks are without any White players selected on the basis of merit I will support the team.
This would hopefully allow SARU to be run as a business- and hire in an expert coaching team that can select their team- instead of jobs for pals. Ideally a coach like Robbie Deans.
Most of Coetzee's coaching team was chosen before him- and this is just pathetic. The first defence coach is a family friend of Ruan Oberholzer - who seems to have his hands in the pot at every occasion.
Other than tight forward play- all the coaches have been useless. Three defence coaches later- and the team is poor.
