hard to see how you class white’s motives as more sinister than meyer, white might want a longer contract extension, but it could be argued at least he’s not asking for the political power that meyer is (which has a greater impact on everyone else).

There is in fact a huge difference between Heyneke and Jake’s actions.

Heyneke is not blackmailing his employer with suggestions of a more lucrative offer elsewhere. Jake is.

Heyneke is not asking for better job security or an extension to his contract. Jake is.

Heyneke is requesting greater power over the coaching structures at the Bulls. Contrary to your statements, Jake is not requesting less political interference from parliament, because frankly, that subject is taboo.

Bottomline. Jake is negotiating a better deal for himself – a longer contract, removal of the performance clause, and a bigger salary (that’s what the whole “R 20 million England offer” hints were aimed at.)

Heyneke is not concerned about his own nest egg, but rather about the best way to achieve success at the Bulls.

And Heyneke definitely has not flown to job interviews anywhere else in the country – or in the world for that matter – ala Jake White.

Frankly, there is no comparison between the two situations whatsoever. And no comparison between the integrity of the two men either.

Miskien bewys hulle my verkeerd, maar ek sal verras wees. Die WP bring altyd die beste uit die Bulle. Bulle met 15+

Wp het glo goed gespeel teen die Haaie en ek dink hulle kom met geweld Loftus toe. Die Bulle kannie vir altyd die Wp wen nie en onthou die Bulle het ook nou ‘n nuwe afrigter – dit gaan taai wees.

Dit gaan die Bulle ‘n jaar of wat vat om weer bo uit te kom.

it just happens to have come a week after the white debacle, very funny.

Jake also wants more power and authority to select players, to rest players, and to give opportunities with their province. Just like Heyneke.

Handing in a letter of resignation is a pretty big gun to the head as well.

How about some info regarding the boardroom-war that is going on behind the scenes at the Bulls.

According to Rapport, Heyneke gave them an ultimatum and actually handed them his letter of resignation, which forced an emergency board meeting at which they finally gave into his demands.

Apparantly Heyneke is asking for more power over coaching structures and player contracting, while the administrators are resisting him all the way.

According to Rapport, this is an election year, and administrators are electioneering rather than putting the good of the union first.

Get us some up to date info! This is serious stuff.

Just shows you the difference in character between Heyneke and Jake White.

For Heyneke, its all about taking the Bulls to the next level, and he needs more power and authority to do this. For White, however, its all about more money. Heyneke is tight lipped about the whole thing, keeping it low key and behind the scenes, while Jake shoots his mouth off a day before the Boks play a test against France, effectively holding a gun to Saru’s head. Integrity vs. greed.

From a Bulls perspective, we need to get the Bulls-fans to back Heyneke all the way in this endeavour.

This team has to gell and a new coach is always a disruption. PHuman has his work cut-out for him and it definitely helps him that that “senior players – boks” are not there, because people always resist change.

The Bulls must make a clean cut and give PHuman all the power – PHuman must have all the backing – even if they don’t win the CC – building needs to be continiously. (groot woord vir ‘n boertjie)

HMeyer must put all his time in the S14 and go that exstra mile to win it… he will have to change some of his methods, gameplans, and structures and although many people don’t rate him as a coach – i think he’s one of the best and as a person, motivator ect. he is up there with the best.

So lets wait and see – but it ain’t gonna be easy!!!!!! But then again what in live is easy?

En om alles korrek in Engels te stel in ook nie maklik nie – so moet my nie laat weet wat is die spelfoute nie asb.
