And to refer to him as a “hardman” is laughable.

I watched Springbok, Natal and Province rugby for many years and Kempson was a dirty thug in the mould of Bakkies but without the impact that Bakkies at least sometimes manages.

As a scrummager he was average at best and I lost count the number of times he got his head shoved up his *ss. As for his contribution around the park – negligible. I remember seeing him being handed off and missing tackles that cost the Stormers and Boks dearly. Overrated as a player and his opinion should count for nought.

…..every ‘great’ team….

Too much vested in Smit as the Leader for him to be dropped. Mores the poignancy of his continued support given Biz is such an incredible athlete at 2 but is a sarnie or 3 short of a picnic upstairs whereas Smit has all the smarts but lacks the athleticism. The thing with a Leader having too much power, as opposed to shared responsibility, is that it tends to flow thru the game and less of the XV taking leadership decisions. Every team has 3-4 leaders at least, without FdP there Smit really only has Matfield. And Big Vic suddenly doesnt look so smart when he’s not taking 110% of all lineout ball.

poor delinquent daydreamers thinking if F. Steyn and F. Du Preez were playing it would make any difference. Just a pity they not because would be the real McCoy wake up call if those two messiah’s were contributing to this kick and chase garbage collectivity of delirious delusions and sent packing just the same.

Problem starts at the engine room, Smit is the fundamental problematical architect of the entire dismal debauchery of debilitated denial. Ab’s must just destroy any semblance of any such ingrained idiocy so that we can once and for all recognize exactly where the cancerous dead end game plan originates.

I won’t be happy nor disappointed, I encourage courage not cowardice, Bok’s like they were under Jake just too chicken to step out their imbecilic archaic comfort zones so let the Ab’s teach them the lesson just like Australia taught them with a 49-0 snotklap.

Chief proponent of the loss factor John Smit

When they realize how dead this dead end road to nowhere is that is when they will shake the encrusted sleep from off their dreamy foggy free falling eyes.

I’m encouraging AB’s to smack Bok’s right out their slumber zone another snotklap exactly what the doctor orders and not a game too soon.
