Most magazines use photoshop to cover-up blemishes; but your design team have made blemishes look cool… I’m going to get into a fight tonight to look like Jon Smit…

:-D

You guys have good players, what you don’t have is self belief. best SA side in local matches but fall apart against international opposition.
hate to admit it (as a SHarks supporter) but expected the Cheetahs to lead the SA charge in this years S14.

If Gary was an average player then all Bulls to date never even made ‘has beens’.

I am thinking of sending a proposal to Johan Rupert to buy the Cheetahs ! We can finally have some cash to buy some good players. :)

It paid off for him, and it paid off for Jake when he kept Luke W out of the bok set up.

It was Maarkgraaff who destroyed the Bok winning team in 1996 and lost the first home series to the All Blacks. Pienaar was a great captain but was not as good as Tiaan Strauss, the forgotten 8.

And your opinion is correct for you, I think why I say Pienaar (because I did rate Teichman) is because of how well he did with the public as does Smit. Teich really didn’t come across very intelligently and wasn’t articulate so he didn’t endear non rugby fans to the sport, if you get my drift!

I think Teichman was a much better captain than Pienaar! Pienaar won the WC but further thats it!

He said guys like Kanko would be very important under the new laws. And how strategic planning for each test would ensure that every test is taken seriously and they would play the best possible team for every test. I will make a few notes of the interview and post it after lunch.

-> I reckon PDV is gonna be taking on a modern manager type role as found in football.

Keegan Daniel on the new laws and gaining weight
-> Please tell me how

Danni Cipriani: England’s rising star
-> Yep, his good. Honestly believe we have our own Cipriani in Rose. Just needs to be managed and developed properly.

Glad that he can still show his mettle.

I would have liked to have seen how he would have approached the new laws.
