    Yet agian the SA Rugby cover sucked… Sorry, but it does. You should get Joost and Amor on your next cover. They haven’t been on any ‘Huisgenoot’ covers for a while and I’m pretty sure they have popped out another little ‘Van De Westhuizen’.

    brian, believe me, I have given that some thought too. Have you noticed, anything Snake likes or dislikes are the same things CJ likes or dislikes. Keo for starters, Watson, being fired and all, not understanding a fetchers role, only into BIG men etc, etc.

    I’m sorry. I just realized my comment was not very ‘constructive’. OK, how about Minki’s ‘new’ pic’s on your next cover. You know, the one’s with her in her bath. I’m sure you would sell a lot of mag’s!

    frenchie, they did ask for constructive crit’s, Personally I don’t like it either. I find it bitsy, I don’t like the white background and I think the couloured MEN looks like it should be on the cover of a child’s colouring book. And you say pull out cover? I hate folding covers! Other than that, it’s fine.

    It is just as well I don’t buy a mag for the cover.

    Ig-give credit where it is due-the bloke didnt read the mag-or even see it so how can he judge.Constructive critism is on thing when you know wgat you talking about,it something completely different when you dont.Its similar with someone like CJ-She does not have a clue at times and its simple-comment on what you know-not what you assume.

    spies looks like a moviestar on the cover. some mafia type.

    and JFourie, is a great player and all that but he look really weird on this cover. like a naughty schoolboy. met ore soos handjies wat sweets vra.

    he doesnt look like that while playing, thank goodness.

    Grr..your childish quirps are not welcomed and unappreciated.Why dont we discuss something that you know something about,whats going on with the Lions camp?What are views on Anton van Zyl-the lock that made an impact in the CC?

    It’s a very bad job of cutting, they could at least have fazed the edges a bit. And what’s with the small sa? does this mean RUGBY’s bigger than SA? And 2006 in a white box? It should have been 2006 in white, not in a white box. Tch.

    frenchie, you didn’t do this cover did you?

    No,but it was a bit different-i didnt think it was that bad,i agree though that you buy the mag for the content.Keo at least poses questions that other journalists dont dare to go>As for thr cover,not bad,in fact better than seeing Brent in a Tank

    And that’s just the cover! Now lets start on the second page. I don’t like the feel of the paper. The ink looks faded. The D halfway down the page has a smudge.
