Useless, pathetic and annoying that they are still in the Super 14
Bring in the Southern Spears next year for the love of South African Rugby

Is it only the Stormers who didn’t get a bonus point against them for four tries scored?

“Muir Tinkers with Tight Five” – Muir may as well go tinker with his car for all the difference it’s going to make.

@ All the losers that commented on **** Muir, I wonder if you have what it takes to accomplish what he has. I really think you should take a look in the mirror and ask yourselves what you have accomplished in your missirable LIVES.
I doudt between the load of you there is enough brain power to coach a pre-primary school team.
Wake up, soon he will make you eat humble pie!

@Wanderer(Wanderer)-11: Only people who seem to believe that a pre-primary school has a rugby team would to be you and **** MUIR.

@KRONUNG(REDJ) you have just proved my point, actually the BULLS,LIONS and the Sharks have jnr club rugby teams that start at U/6. I suggest you keep your sarcasm to yourself and start reading about the rugby development that is done in every province.
There is even provincial club teams that are chosen and that play against one another. This assists youngsters that are not chosen for the Craven week teams.
Your Sarcasm makes no impression and only shows your total lack of respect for others that are at least willing to make a difference.
The fact that you are so willing to down play the LIONS and their proud history makes me sure that you are not a true RUGBY fan. Have you wondered what the affect be if the Lions don’t excist anymore.
Enjoy your jokes at the expence of the true LIONS fans but soon we will see the decline of other franchises, but unlike you we will feel the pain of every loss with you, and not ridicule you.
LIONS TILL I DIE!
