Has the latest issue of SA Rugby magazine rocked your world?
If so, we want to know what you liked about it. If you didn’t enjoy the mag, give us some constructive criticism.
We have received a lot of letters regarding Peter de Villiers’s appointment and the scrapping of the Bok emblem, but please keep them coming (judge@hsm.co.za). At the end of the week, we’ll pick the best one (and the winner of the Bok jersey).
Simon has written 2608 articles.

It was very good especially liked Cardinelli’s piece on the best black fifteen players and their prospects for the Springboks.
But I thought the issue should have had a piece on up and coming youngsters. Guys who are tipped to take the new super 14 by storm. They almost always have a piece on that every year. I hope at least it will be in the feb edition.
17 Jan 2008, 13:00 pm
Yeah, I liked JC’s piece as well.
17 Jan 2008, 13:22 pm
No.
17 Jan 2008, 13:32 pm
no, why cant we have more action pics?
a large apeal to me in a magazine is to see some good action shots
and some scandaal behind the scenes of whats going on in the rugby world
17 Jan 2008, 13:46 pm
no, i need to get a copy.
17 Jan 2008, 14:09 pm
rubbish
cant buy it in the uk

Get an interview with Solly. I’d be helluva impressed if you managed to track him down…
Also, perhaps a nice idea would be an entire article with commentaries by players who were coached by Peter de Villiers, so each player has about two or three sentences or so. Could be nice, since it seems people know very little about Peter de Villiers as person and as coach.

Dit was nou sommer n piele uitgawe

Great mag. Recruiting Jake as an columnist was a very good move.
Enjoyed the piece on Schalk as well.
17 Jan 2008, 15:07 pm
The mag was ok – I’m still waiting for my royalties…
Interview Pieter d V, And Jean d V
17 Jan 2008, 16:39 pm
Mag was oraait.
Perhaps an interview with NZ rugby bosses on their next 4 year plan to win the world cup!?
Please.
17 Jan 2008, 16:46 pm
And also a section on “players to watch”. Its always good to have while pondering my fantasy rugby selections. Although I must say, you guys weren’t exactly spot on last year. I probably won’t be taking your advice.
17 Jan 2008, 17:53 pm
LOL interveiw with Solly
Please!!!!!!
What about an interveiw with Henry?? on the reconditioning and rotation of players for next RWC??
17 Jan 2008, 18:41 pm
As enjoyable and informative as ever…but you forgot to include Luke Watson in the list of potential black Springboks
17 Jan 2008, 18:58 pm
would love to be able to buy it in the USA.
any chance of it being available digitally??
that way us expats could buy the mag and read it without having to fork out for the extortionate postage charges.
other than that, as WPTID said, an interview with Solly, ask him why he has thrown away everything. Does he know how many guys would have killed for what he had and it seems as though he can’t be assed to put in the effort anymore.

Guys
please get your act together.
Why advertise subscriptions to SA Rugby Mag on ebucks, when no such facility exists???
Go try it yourselves before you advertise it on your freekin site.
Maak my die donner in.

I thoroughly enjoy the current content, but I have a suggestion: Using the sometimes deranged and fanatical fans on Keo as yardstick – it’s damn obvious that at least 85% of South African rugby’s character and charm is provided by the supporters……(the incompetent and always entertaining SARU provide the ohter 15%)
These clowns, love ‘em, hate ‘em or irritated by ‘em, play an integral part in the game we love, and I for one, would love to see these “characters/clowns” of the game receive some coverage.
Visit a few fanatical Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Lions and Cheetahs fans, attend a game with them, visit their homes etc etc. Gatecrash a Presidents Council meeting. Visit Harold Verster at one of his homes……
Whilst the players, coaches and technical ins ands outs of the game form the core of the mag (as is current norm) – it would be great if you guys could find place in the mag for the HEART of the game, as found in the characters mentioned above…..(Just please NO Tacitus inserts….)
And, as I am a Stormers gal, you may present me with the Bok jersey – I am still 100% behind the Boks (unlike some of my friends up north – who in protest will no longer be wearing Bok replica jerseys, but Bulls truie alleenlik….)

ruck
You really are desperate for that jersey… I say give it to her fellas
18 Jan 2008, 07:36 am
hey ruck, are you offering your abode during the next test as the first port of call? they could capture those ‘enthusiastic and fanatical’ supporters moments to a tee!
18 Jan 2008, 08:14 am
Great idea, Ruck. They could do a piece on me, for instance. A Lion far away from his den; stranger in a strange land. A keo journo could follow me to a Newlands game and document the challenges faced (and immense courage shown) by a lone Lions supporter who finds himself in a large, hostile crowd. Irate Province supporters putting down their picnic plates, pushing back their pastel sweater sleeves and warning me to be the hell quiet or they will have me thrown the heck out. Could make for good reading.

Hey Katman,youre a legend ,dont change your ways no matter how many times they chuck you off.
18 Jan 2008, 08:25 am
Ai tog Ruck moes jy nou daai laaste lyntjie ook inkry. Die dark side issie so tros nie man.
Agree with bod. Give it to ruck.
18 Jan 2008, 08:27 am
It could be worse katman
They could do the selfsame interview with you at Loftus…
18 Jan 2008, 08:32 am
If I go to Loftus, Bod, I swear to god I’ll sit in the black stands.
18 Jan 2008, 08:35 am
Black stands?
18 Jan 2008, 08:40 am
Ja, like Johnny Clegg.
18 Jan 2008, 09:11 am
Kwagga – jy weet seker teen die tyd, jy is nie een van my teikens……Eintlik is die Bulls posters hier op Keo (met 1 of 2 uitsonderings) van die beste en greatest ouens. Hoe boring sal life nie wees as mense nie mekaar so klein bietjie afkraak, en spot??? Hahaha – it keeps one grounded!! (Truly) Always remember, I love the game of rugby TOO much to really “hate/dislike” anyone involved in the game……well…almost..
18 Jan 2008, 11:18 am
Ruck
Nee wat jy het nie pyne. Altyd reg met n skerp iets. Geniet jou posts moerse.
Gaan nou waai. Lekker naweek
18 Jan 2008, 17:27 pm
Katman
Unlike Newlands we dont have “black” stands at Loftus you half bread!
18 Jan 2008, 17:59 pm
That’s great news, AB. I presume the stands are wonderfully cosmopolitan these days.
Have your say
