After all the ballyhoo about Stampkar vs Wales, one wondered, did they miss the two times he lost the ball on the Welsh line? We got a piece of the answer in the match against France. Once again Stampkar lost the ball on the line....but the toothless charges into the first tackler were even less effective. France had clearly looked at the tapes.
So against the Poms do the Irish persist with this unproductive tactic...he is scarely making a metre a carry....and there are so many carries? And if they do, have the Poms got a plan to take advantage of this predictable stuff?
An upright, not very powerful runner with no offload has to be a gift to the opposition.

I've heard of bifocals....but two pairs? A little anxious to defend Stampkar are we?

The ignorant twat is squealing again.
Let's drop CJ after winning MOM on debut and being the most productive blindside in his second test.
Moffie do you have any brains?
But you will be pleased to know that the s18 starts this weekend so we can look forward to more of your predictable anti any SA player who is under 25....drum roll please

Where is JJ ranked on the list of Bok Centre greats Vetsak. Stampkar is bog ordinary.

Just checked out the ODI batting rankings...not one Aussie in the top 10. That must be a first.
BTW Denny, do you remember a couple of months back when I said the Aussies were already there in tests? I think I have been vindicated somewhat by their no.1 ranking after their total domination against NZ in the recent test series. Aus are on fire in the test department, and I think we are going to battle in a big way against them when they arrive here shortly.

Ag Bluebok, with Australia's rich culture in cricket it was just a matter of time before they took over the reins as the No 1 test cricketing nation but you'd have to thank the Proteas for giving them a helping hand after losing to the POMS. Still when I run my eye over test teams there aren't any as good as the ones of yesteryear eg. I don't believe the current Ozzie team is as good as the one of the Shane Warne, Ponting, Langer, Hayden and McGrath era and I think the Proteas have fallen away through the loss of Kallis and Smith. The trouble with South African cricket is that there isn't any young good test batsmen coming through....I'm talking around the 23-24 years mark.

Ah Moffie ducking and diving
I'm still waiting for your expert take on the other blindside flankers who played in the first two rounds of the 6N's.......you pathetic little man.....all ignorant noise when it comes to CJ but too chicken shit to comment on the other blindsides who did sweet FUCK all
And Moffie while you are at it.....why not talk us through your take on the role of a blindside flanker
I take it you are watching the France v Wales game right now.....how are the two blindsides featuring you ignorant twat?
Lydiate 2 runs so far 1 metre gained.....the Frenchman 5 runs 3 metres gained.....this at halftime......lets hope for your sake they have killer second halfs......you fucking joke

Stampkar doesn't even average one meter a run....and he's beaten about one tackle in 30 attempts. Defensively he is slow off the line as well. Another of your bog ordinary youngsters....oops I guess he isn't so young. This hype will pass.

Like the hype on Morne Steyn, Matfield, Pienaar, Alberts and Burger passed years ago - but was maintained by some till the last moments in the WC?
Hype is where players produce nothing of note and is written up as match-winners. That is the case in most of the ancients Meyer selected for the WC - he knew what they can produce, but never produced in recent years when playing for the Springboks.
You write constantly that their departure would result in dire situations for the Springboks - but would the Springboks be poorer than they were in 2014 and 2015? I doubt that very much.

Oh please. Victor was the consensus MOM in the 2007 WC final. Morne Steyn won the Lions series and the 2009 TN. Burger was World Player of the Year in 2005. And you want to compare Stampkar a mediocre player in his mid twenties with these giants? Get real.

Matfeld was pathetic in every game he played in since Jne 2014 and is still a flop for his club. Sure Burger was good in 2005 - but last year was 2015 and in the ten years that elapsed his game did not maintain the standard it was in 2005.
What you don't appreciate is that players performances go down with age - especially when you get over 30 years of age. So the greats of 2005 - to 2009 wqas not great in 2014 and 2015.
But in the case of Stander you have a case where he is in opposition to Alberts - the biggest flop ever in the history of Bok rugby as a loose forward. And you sopported Alberts consistently.

Alberts has the strength to break a tackle. Stampkar gets knocked over by the first tackler...just another boring, effort player.

When did Alberts ever break a tackle - must have been in 2011 when he broke one. His worst attribute was a nea r absence in defense. Still the worst loosie SA ever played on top level. Fact is he was a prop pretending to be a loosie.
