    I mean, no one has said it that I’ve seen, but the Boks are fucking roided up to the nuts, their coaches cheat with HIAs, their coaches attack referees, their players are mostly fluffybunnies, there isn’t a single neutral fan who wants them to win.

    Beautiful. About time someone said this.

    Doesn’t go far enough. I heard they’re mean to small animals and break children’s toys. They also cheat at golf and park in handicap spaces.

    Worst of all, they play rugby to win not to entertain other countries’ casual fans. Scum.

      @Smuts Serious question here. Was it just Dyanti, or was it just Dyanti who got caught?

        They've done it again. If this doesn't get you fired up you might need to check your pulse.

        The first guy was impressive, I had hairs standing up, and the second guy just yelled.

        But go the ABs!

          Telling Coles he wasn’t playing must be the toughest thing Fozzie’s done. Can only imagine how much fire he’s going to put into the lads this week.

            Every podcast I've listened too (and there have been many) is talking about how the ABs need to counter the Boks.

            There is next to 0 chat about the threats the ABs pose and what SA will have to do to deal with them.

            Am I crazy or is this a bit weird?

            It's being talked about like it's a given SA will be the ones applying the pressure all game.

            might just because Sa have come out with this unusual bench etc....they are very obvious in they way they look like theyre planning something...we're we have largely stuck with the same starting 23

                Older article but

                https://www.sarugbymag.co.za/aphiwe-dyantyis-long-lonely-road/
                "Social media went berserk. In the past there have been positive findings against a platoon of high-profile rugby players such as Johan Ackermann, Chiliboy Ralepelle, Johan Goosen, Ntando Kebe and Monde Hadebe, but Dyantyi’s was the highest profile of the lot."

                  I think Rassie will have his team playing like England, like 2019, with a lot more kicks. The waterboys to do more metres than his players

                    @Kiwiwomble I think it's justified chat, however, we are sure as shit going to test them too.

                    For me the most relevant talking point is can they cope with us to start.

                    If it's close and they bring on the bench, then yup, it's gonna be tough for us to counter (but I back our boys to do it).

                      A sensible team - we've gone with our big boys to counter their big boys.

                      Would have loved to see Roigard in there but that was never going to happen, was always going to be Christie for the knockout games.

                      But the tactics from SA are obvious, grind, kick and strangle. I can only hope the 7-1 split comes back to hurt them, but that's injury dependent on the day.

                      im really surprised it hasnt bitten them already , its not that uncommon for 2 or even 3 backs to go down during the course of a game , ankles , hamstrings, knees etc .

                      that normally happens when they get tackled

                      when your backs never touch the ball, they don't get tackled, and therefore don't get hurt

                        Unless attempting to catch a ball off a kick, I would be surprised if the ball gets past 10.

                        Surely we target Faf this week, legally of course.

                          Wow, tough on Coles. I thought he'd get the nod as if we're being honest he's been in better form than Sami.

                          Anyway, what a great career, went from a front rower in a backs body to a genuine tough forward.

                              But even the boyos try to keep their gear out of their trophies. I’m kidding. The welsh don’t have any trophies

                                  We don't need excuses, the reality is we're just here to make up numbers, you lot are unbackable favourites.

                                  You have the mastercoach Rassie of the Erasmus's and we have some bloke who was eating pies near the team bus and accidentally hopped on.

                                  You have the Bomb Squad and we have Finlay Christie.

                                  The game is such a lock for you guys that you didn't even bother giving Suzie her first class ticket to France, she's just going to sit at home in Jo'burg and watch contented on the TV.

                                      @Rancid-Schnitzel get your excuses in early. I like it.

                                      We don't need excuses, the reality is we're just here to make up numbers, you lot are unbackable favourites.

                                      You have the mastercoach Rassie of the Erasmus's and we have some bloke who was eating pies near the team bus and accidentally hopped on.

                                      You have the Bomb Squad and we have Finlay Christie.

                                      The game is such a lock for you guys that you didn't even bother giving Suzie her first class ticket to France, she's just going to sit at home in Jo'burg and watch contented on the TV.

                                      Why pay for a fictional character to attend a rugby match. Especially when your best minds are already hard at work preparing new excuses?
