We have selected players whose handling is what you call BS.   The moment you select a player like Juan de Jongh in the team - write off the team.  He cannot tackle and his passing game is what one can call piss-poor.   He cannot play rugby - so what the hell is he doing in that squad.   Then you have Kolbe who cannot pass balls to save his life and you are doomed.

Yes because not watching a match and judging a players performance by a rare try is exactly how you come to the conclusion of how good a player was...

Why the Springbok Sevens are BS

Why? Because.... "South Africa beat Argentina 29-14 in the final of the HSBC Cape Town Sevens, round two of the series, moving them to second in the overall standings".
Hehehe...

De Jongh really cost us the match against Kenya -  he was pathetic in that game.   De Jongh looked good in attacking play - but what he has shown in the 15 man game is still very present.  When he gets tackled ball possession loss happens way too often,   And in defense he has been exposed as well.  I am not overly impressed at all - but mpst members do not consider both the positives and the negatives, but I do.

 Oh well, at least we didn't get pomped by the USA :) "Why the Kiwi sevens are BS" Sevens is like T20, entertaining but meaningless.

Plum, sevens maybe like T20, but at least it is taking the game to many places the 15 man format is not! Any exposure rugby can get is good in my book.
