I would prefer young Pienaar to be groomed as a fly- half where he played quite brillinatly in the World Under 21. S A already has a couple of really good srumhalves with strong back ups. In my opinion not one fly-half of International standard compared to New Zealnd who have five or six. Lack of a good number 10 has been the Springboks downfall for some years now. Quite extraordinary. Any reasons? Hamba Kahle

Can any one please tell me why Boots & All is not on CSN at 19:30 on a Thurday night any more? And when and where it now showing?

It still shows in the MNet guide that it is showing in the above mentioned time slot.

What is going on?

gecko,

1981 demo tour of NZ. Enter Johan Heunis. Came on as a sub, without a no. on his back, courtesy of coach Nelie Smith, who had allegedly seconded a whole set of rugby jerseys for his private use and distribution. Heunis was an instant success. Safe as houses under the high ball (Gysie’s downfall) and pulled off a front-on try-saving tackle on Andy Haden a few metres from the line. Thanks for coming, Gysie!

I played against both, and also in the same team as JH. Gysie was special. Heunis was a genuine great. Ask Ray Mordt.

Further to 89, I think his buck teeth surely makes kissing difficult.

FUZ,

Can I post you stats later on loose forwards later, since you have brought up that argument several times on various threads.

FUZZY

Do not agree though, Habana has skill and was my favourite player at a stage. But he is surely the laziest winger in world rugby.

I would think she gives him nothing.

ja big g, point taken. Joubert these days is pure KAK…but the truth be told, i still have dreams about the way he shredded those all blacks at ellis park.other then that, we get that team or a team close to that, and those all blacks could have a thing or two to worry about.

now scahlla, if you were to replace willemse with snyman and joubert with just about anybody (maybe cook, barrit or olivier and maybe move jean to outside) i’d give stan’s lefty to watch that team play!!!

rugbystudent, nice side at 20, leaving out Os is a big call tho.

rugbystudent, there’s very little separating Andrews, Barnard and Rautenbach, all kak. Sephaka’s a better scummager.

The best TH’s are: CJ, BJ and Visagie.
The best LH’s are: OS, Lensing (Nam) and Guthro.

Koos – some people might not know, but Gysie only made the Bok team due to Pierre Edwards being injured in the second test vs South America just before the Lions series – and then got voted by the Lions as the player that had the biggest influence in that series.

Is does seem trange that although Pienaar played 1st class rugby till ’87, after ’81 he never got a sniff of the Bok team again.

Koos – Gysie scored that try against the Lions in 1980. Famous photograph with Bruce Hay on his knees in the background.

HAHAHAHAAA

you lot must be joking, bosman at 10, joe at 8.

Whatever, joe and bosman are overrated! Joe used to be a special talent in the days when he was with the lions. These days, he just crashes it up, no skill from him anymore. Even his great tri nations game last here was only good because he made some strong runs. No great skill involved, just alot of strenth. When is this guy gonna start performing like we all know he can. Every CC and Super 12/14 and EOYT he plays kak. Then he has one, maybe 2 good games during the tri nations and he’s a super hero again!!!! Give me a break. Look at the other guys who play good rugga every week in and week out. Enough of this pri madonna ****!

Bosman could become a good player for our next WC but he is nothing special right now, and there is no way he is better than Jaco or petoors, or even butch for that matter. He got lucky last year when everyone got injured for the EOYT. And played ONE good game this season, and the rest was KAK!
