Great issue as usual but please can this be the last we hear of Luke Watson. I am sick and tired of this fool getting underserved column space in such a great magazine! Let his name be forgotten by SA Rugby forever!

Ryan..your article on Jean was amazing- awesome story which just highlighted the fact that he really is the best player in the world. Such a humble person with such talent is a rare find- SA Rugby should hold onto him for as long as they can!
Hope to see him as our new captain in the near future!

Really enjoy the new edition…especially the article about the Sharks by Ryan- hope you are right and we get to see another few trophies sitting in the Sharks cabinet in future!
Also really liked the cover by Rory- was very catchy and something different nice work guys!

I have the perect answer to the bok/protea question. Rename the Springbok the Proteabok, that way those who want to support the boks can still do, and those who want the protea are also happy. its a no lose situation plus the emblem does not have to change or shift right or left or anything. Good luck for the politcal gurus to find fault it that one as I am sure 90 % of the people complaining about the bok does not even know what the emblem looks like.

2008/12/01 Springbok day. Bring out the oldest green jersey you have and wear it, or cap, or shirt, showing the springbok. To all the Springbok supporters throughout the world. Make a visual protest and stand up for the springbok emblem.

Los die bok. Die springbok het tog immers ‘n wit streep, bruin vel en swart poephol.

For me thats the logical choice, leave thbe Bok where it is, and put the King Protea on the other side, like in the SA Rugby mag. But if it were the other way round [Which SA Rugby and the politicians are talking about], I do not support that at all.

SAVE OUR SPRINGBOK !!!!!!

But here’s my logic.

Forget the flipping Protea. It’s already on the emblem anyways. Or is that a daisy?

While I would be happy with that, the politicians won’t be. They’ll agree to that and then slowly they’ll swap it around and then they’ll just kick the Bok off and we’ll be the stinking Proteas. I’m telling you know we will be the Proteas before the next world cup. But I’m not going down with out a fight!

Soccer? You want to put the SPRINGBOKS in the same group as Bafana Bafana?

#3 roddis: I don't think this is the best time to become a referee. With all the different sets of rules you'll have to do three times as much studying (OK I was a lazy student).

Or just a fresh Spring Protea

Just a thought, what if they do drop the Bok (If you will pardon the pun) and that bloke still does not get selected, would that constitute anti transformation tactics or good rugby sense, just asking!!

Considering your readership/ target market, I suppose ‘our’ confirms their ownership of the team/ symbol – in these times of financial woes, YOU seem to be using every trick in the bok…err book to sell more magazines!

Liverpool suppoerter… huh, looked like they were walking alone when they got stuffed 4-2 against Spurs. Man Utd for life

IMO the solution is even simpler than that.

Take the King Protea and the Springbok, comine them and you have…

…King Bok. Fixed. Done. Sorted.
