The Boks are going to be smashed again on saturday
its the same pathetic team as last week besides a few enforced changes

Gotta be Roots Manoova…

Yeah he could put all his riddles and analogies together and bust a sick rhyme…

Ok so enjoy the good Cape wine then. I cannot get Delheim here but I have beento their estate.

The Tourettes Disease reference or analogy will be correct and apt if you are applying it to those who administer the wonderful game of rugby in our country.

I will give some rugby knowledge that I doubt you really are aware of, and that is that H.O. was the first ‘Bok that I am aware of who acted, way back when, in the non-racial interest of S.A. rugby.

At this time of night, I always do, Delheim Pinot to be exact.

And as for you post, tourettes actually described some of the points nicely – so great mistake there.

Even in the land of its origin I never ever go there.

Both really, but thanks for the correction albeit an attempt to score a point.

Now I can finish my lunch(that is what drove me to rush) without further disturbance.

I hope you are not enjoying a red.

Tourettes or tourists?

1.” Springbok assistant coaches Gary Gold and **** Muir have had a major influence on the team’s playing philosophy,…..”

2. ” That the Springbok team is run by committee should be obvious to anyone who has read John Smit’s autobiography. It should have been clear to anyone who understands the game that the Springboks did not achieve their success against the British & Irish Lions and in the Tri-Nations playing the off-the-cuff rugby that De Villiers spoke about when he first took over.”

3. ” Behind the scenes a long battle was being waged in 2008 to get the Boks back to the game that won the World Cup just a year earlier. The players were part of that battle, but the assistant coaches were also facing each other across the trenches, with the different philosophies of **** Muir and Gary Gold having an impact on the initial formulation of policy, as well as the evolution that followed.”

4. ” The reality is that strategy within the Springbok set-up has never really been driven by De Villiers….”

5. ” But the senior players cannot be fall guys because they are seen as indispensible. The assistants may be more expendable to De Villiers, which explains why it was management who were in the line of fire when he thrust out his chest and proclaimed ‘I am the boss!’ That was what De Villiers’ media outburst was about.”

The above quotes are just some gems of the intrigue that is S.A. rugby, so seemingly democratically and non-racially run but to me and others so very seedy and canned.
This is just one of the missing puzzle pieces(5 or so still needed) which points to PDiv. allowing himself(and to an extent forced) to be blackmailed to be able to earn some of the glory(ill-found nontheless) that his psyche craved as the the non self-respecting underling.

It is clear his controllers working through the Gold, Incense and Muir(gone wrong) agenda gave him very early attention after his appointment in Dec. 2007(much non-Black anger) and the first physical expression thereof was Div’s rushed trip to France and the U.K.(Fe.2008) to beg some of the delinquent “2007 WC seniors”(I used these words first in May 2008 already)to return(Smit, Matfield, Monty, James).
When he(Div) was acting out of line later they quickly reeled him in(E.L.tapes). It is abundantly clear who was dancing and who was pulling the strings of the tunes.

Also a look at his first squad against Wales had few of those ’2007WC seniors”; no FDP, Bakkies, Burger, Monty,Smit and Matfield(both minimal?) but came the last game before that 2008 TN most were back in place despite not performing really with the new elvs.
By the eoyt all available “seniors” were not only back but rumoured to be in control(LW dispelled) and at last performing to their abilities and getting winning results – see how ‘positive player -power can be or alternatively make or break a coach..

Can there still be doubters who question that PDiv is now where he had no intention of wanting to be even just from a rugby standpoint – he truly is just now trying to save face and the sometimes good results have just confused him more about this glory that he so wishes to attain.

Those who choose to ignore the real playing out of the facts can continue to be delusional even if another wheel does not fall off this Sat.
Be careful a nut who screws and bolts may still hog the headlines. Will it be Burger or danie or even replacement Flip as frustration upon frustation is heaped on the tourests?
