Doos XL during Boks vs Ireland game:

"Boks to win by at least two scores."

"Imagine what the game would have been if we had test quality half backs. Not just place kickers, but actual test quality half backs. We can still win though. And we will."

Doos XL after the Boks vs Ireland game:

"Don't count your chickens. Italy to beat New Zealand and the Boks to have a surprise trip to the finals as Scotland beat Ireland. Heard it here first"

"This was nothing close to the second best team in world rugby. The Boks looked clueless, dumb, lacking a hard edge, skills, and looked very poorly coached. All Ireland needed to be was average with accuracy at key moments. That's all that is needed to beat one of the worst Bok sides that has ever been."

Doos XL on announcement of team to play France:

"Horrible. Simply horrible. If France can't beat this rabble then they are clueless. Not only are the selections bad, the game plan is even worse. "

Doos XL comments during NZ vs Ireland game:

"All kaks look laboured on defence. "

"Ireland look far better on the ball. "

"NZ has breakdown shenanigans and the chip. Nothing else. We need a result that finally does the game of Rugby Union justice."

"Retallick and Savea are the totality of the All Blacks. Let's see what Player 16 does. I predict he finishes Ireland off."

"One of those days... RIP Rugby Union."

"This is one of the lowest points Rugby Union has ever seen. It's been a horrendous cycle."

Doos XL comments before Boks vs France:

"The Boks are a very, very long way from being the best team in the world. This is the worst ever Boks side to play in a World Cup."

"It's the most limited team we've had in a WC. The worst coached, prepared, trained, and by far the lowest IQ team we've had. There are very few positives."

"There is so much flaccid nonsense being spouted about the Boks. It would take an early exist for some to show more honesty and integrity in reporting it the way it is. Who do we have who dominates or can dominate the line? Esterhuizen, Eben, Wiese, RG. That's it. Kwagga could be added to that list of he ever gets a chance in this campaign. Of those players who is a starting Bok? Not a good look, is it? "

Doos XL comments during the Boks vs France game:

"Boks looking low on IQ."

""Boks are a great defending side and physical" - Every dumb pseudo Bok Fan."

"Mr Arendse, the free space runner who offers nothing else."

"Interesting penalty. Libbok.... Mr Deer in Headlights. "

"This is bizarre. The Boks with 3 tries despite playing favella rugby."

"Nothing wrong. Yet, we aren't doing anything. That's a problem."

"Flabherbe flubs."

"The Boks have shown nothing but a kick and a prayer. F minus rugby."

"Well, the Boks aren't going to add quality. Terrible rugby."

"When the Boks need to create they look like a tier 3 side."

"Boks have done nothing. P16 turning the momentum. Tier 3 Rugby from Boks"

"France have made the Boks look very poor."

"Faf is a stupid and unskilled player."

"How bizarre. The worst ever WC Bok side win doing utterly nothing."

Those are just from the first page. There are more hilarious clangers in the build up to the RWC. A truly ignorant rugby noob, his only redeeming feature being the humour he adds when he talks himself up as some kind of rugby guru.

Where are his acolytyes now?

LMAO!

Brutal Rooitwit brutal.

But you do seem to be doing some chest beating. Bwahahahaha.

Doos just doesn't understand the game. He also is very immature. If he doesn'tike somebody egc he gets so incredibly biased his ability to assess anything reasonably ceases to exist.

Rassie has schooled the poor guy repeatedly and left him in an hysterical mess.

I wish Alucard a genuine recovery. 


Oct 16, 2023, 16:48

I only respond to Doos to remind him what an ignorant twat he is

How can someone profess to be a rugby follower when he gets everything so wrong

Utterly clueless

Oct 16, 2023, 16:51

I’ll take Deus over group think in a heartbeat.

Oct 16, 2023, 18:41

... group think too...he's group is just smaller and less informed...8-):angel:

Oct 16, 2023, 18:50

The Boks ranked number #1 in the world have the worst attack and defense out of the top 10 test teams...

Oct 16, 2023, 21:07

Moz you need your head checked taking anything ignorant Doos has to say over anything

Oct 17, 2023, 02:10

My head is fine….I predicted the exact Irish loss and but for Faff’s stupid pass into the French player, I would have been within a point of the exact Bok win over France. As it is, I confidently predicted the win when many on here were vacillating. So did Deus.

Oct 17, 2023, 07:21

Lol Deus is about as far from groupthink as can be.

We just struggle to tolerate other's opinions.

And Old Rooi, the personality void that he is, adds to so little to this site these days other than waiting for what he sees as opportune moments to dog pile or attack a perceived weakness.

When last did you give anything more than a superficial take on anything? Quite strange that you look down on Deus, while's he brave enough to voice unpopular opinions and explain himself while you, as usual, just sit there with your bucket of vegetables.

Old Rooi, the grumpy and sour tosspot is so engulfed in his frustration that he likely doesn't even remember when he used to make the odd worthwhile post.

Snap of of it, Rooi.

Shine some light for once in your life.

Oct 17, 2023, 09:00

The only trouble Plum is that the Doos doesn't explain himself. Dishing up complete nonsense is not explaining yourself. 

Given the Rugby nonsense Ou mozzz sprouts no wonder he supports Doos.

We are expected to believe the currently number 1 ranked sude in the World has tbe worst attack, the worst defence, is the worst Bok side ever, has tbe worst coach, has a glass jaw and a soft underbelly and the host of other absurd things he goes on about.

Yey ou Mozzz says I will take Deus over group think every time. BWAHAHAHAHAHA. thank goodness the much larger group recognizes that Doos is talking nonsense most of the time. Very good in politics though.

No mozzz supports Doos because they are on many rugby issues. They have the same group think. They both think Rassie is terrible, both think Du Toit is useless and ditto Allende and Malherbe. Both think very poorly of the Bok side tgstvwin the last world cup. Etc etc etc.

In fact their group think has only served to reinforce the absurd take on issues. 

But here is the try hilarious part. They think the coach is useless, the real riddled with problems but they joined me and others I predicting NZ and Boks would win. Even now thry don't get how plain mixed up they are HAHAHAHAHAHA. 

As for Rooitwit this was a great summary even if very incomplete.

And yes Moz does need his head checked for the presence of spiked proteins!. 


Oct 17, 2023, 12:17

Moz you are not alone my call is we are going to win the WC

But my point is more about ignorant Doos in general

His takes on anything is a load of utter shit

Look no further than his latest saying Kriel is a better attacker than Am

Fuck me

Oct 17, 2023, 14:04

I don’t necessarily agree with that particular call….but it makes you think. What exactly did Kriel do on offense on Saturday? He made one good break, the only one from non broken play the Boks made. And he put through the perfectly weighted grubber for Kolbe’s try.

Am in the last WC final produced the magical offload that created Mapimpi’s try.

Overall I’d give the nod to Am, but it did make me think and it’s still out there as a proposition to be considered. It added value to the debate. That’s the point.

Oct 17, 2023, 14:37

Kriel is in the form of his life - but Am not as good as Lukhanyo.


I watched a video of Kriel on YouTube a few days ago where he was giving an interview about game strategy and plans.
He is a polite and intelligent person. I was expecting a simpleton, but he was anything but. 

Oct 17, 2023, 15:23

"He is a polite and intelligent person. I was expecting a simpleton, but he was anything but. "

Your prejudices prevent you from seeing the bigger picture...you assume you've got all the relevant facts, but you actually don't...why on Earth would you have assumed Kriel to be a simpleton...based on what? You assumed some things, what were they?

Oct 17, 2023, 16:29

Based on how he was playing a few years ago when he never passed the ball.

If a player crash balls all of the time, I assume that they are dumb muscle. (e.g Johan Deysel, Trevor Halstead, Jorrie Muller).


A player like Vermuelen and Steph Dutoit are intelligent players who understand running lines, draw and pass, etc-  more so than say Wiese. 
They have the muscle but also the brains to play an all-round game.

Oct 17, 2023, 16:52

So Bill Gates and Einstein should have been great rugby players...?...things are not as simple as you believe them to be...take a step back...and this is not a lecture for you...I do it too...we tend to forget that there are some things we are not privy to...

Oct 17, 2023, 16:57

Kriel is playing like he used to pre Am coming into the picture

My guess is that his confidence is back and that will be as a result of his selection to start despite the presence of Am

But Am is in a completely different class. Am is gifted with the silliness which sets him apart. He glides, he steps, he makes the right decisions. He has a great rugby brain and soft hands.

Kriel is none of the above - he is muscle bound and solid, robotic in what he does. He lacks finesse and is blessed with a standard rugby brain on par with the likes of de Allende, Esterhuizen etc. Not a bad a thing but not special as is the case with Am

Everything Am does is better than Kriel it’s not even close

Oct 17, 2023, 19:18

Kriel is possibly the best defensive center in world rugby. 

That grubber kick for Chrslin was top flight. 

How match ready is Am. Kreil can play 80 minutes doubt if Am could at this time. 

Maybe we will see Moodie on the Wing. To move to center of Am starts. 

Who knows.. Just have some doubt about Am playing and how that effects the bench etc. 

Oct 17, 2023, 19:33

The team will be the same - bench might change if he goes 6/2

Possible change could be Am for Willie on the bench

Oct 17, 2023, 19:51

If your coach employs the HIA tactic he could give AM a 10 minute break so his lack of conditioning wouldn't be a factor. Let's see if the powers that be do something about it.

Oct 18, 2023, 19:30

Just win at any cost it is my considered opinion you need an emergency HIA assessment. I suspect something is just not right. 


Oct 18, 2023, 19:42

Ha ha Beeno, if I get an HIA it is for strategic purposes just like the Boks:P

Oct 18, 2023, 19:51

Draad,   

Gates is not the complete package. I said brains AND muscle. 


Oct 18, 2023, 20:10

I met a famous Bok back many moons ago...he didn't come across as too smart in general, but one of the best players ever...you cant judge a book...

Oct 18, 2023, 20:23

Draad - Danie Gerber?

Oct 18, 2023, 20:43

Wiese has an all-round game. He's still gonna get a lot better.

But we need him and Roos playing together.

Oct 18, 2023, 20:54

Wiese has no finesse he is a powerful fucker though. Same raw strength as Marx and the du Preez twins

Roos has to be our 8 post WC, not sure where Wiese would fit in, not really a 7 but could pass as one I guess

A 7 in reality needs to be an athletic lock that offers line out options
