Limpopo will play in the Vodacom Cup as a separate side for the first time this year.
The region, which is a sub-union of the Blue Bulls Rugby Union, has been granted a place in the tournament in its own rights to help foster rugby in South Africa’s far north. They join the 14 provincial unions as well as the returning Pampas XV from Argentina in the tournament, which kicks off in the second week of March and concludes in mid-May.
The Polokwane-based Limpopo team will play in the North Section of the competition, along with the Blue Bulls, Golden Lions, Griffons, Leopards, Pumas, Valke ...

I am Michael Copley’s brother. Out of respect to my late brother, I am continuing the Copley way of posting on this great portal. I hope you understand. I am not a rugby guru, but my brother has inspired me to get involved.

Thank you all. Our family is releasing Jinx’s CD “Soul Petrol” this weekend. Pardon me if I am being unprofessional. I do not have a contact list for him. Jinx is watching the Green and Gold.

I wonder who is calling the shots now for the Boks once PdV and his entourage are back?
Is it PdV who preceded over Rassi on returning?
Or
Is Rassie with the Help of JS runs the show while PdV and his assistants are just in a nominal role like AC was after E Jones hads joined the Boks?
or
Any arrangement which falls in between?

Jinx
Knew his rugby.
Enjoyed a cup of tea in the garden.
RIP

Am glad Jinx’s bro is here it will temper some of the madness flying around here lately
3 Aug 2011, 19:04 pm
According to KEO’s logic re the 2007 Boks being in the starting 15, surely then Steenkamp and Van Der Linde will be propping up the Boks’ esteemed captain? With Beast and/or Jannie joining Bismark on the bench?
3 Aug 2011, 19:05 pm
@Jinx2(Jinx2)-270: Welcome to this site buddy. Your brother was my favourite blogger here. Think Jinx was everyones favourite blogger. Still miss his posts.
I blog on RT and listened to that song when it was put up there last year. Great work by Jinx.
Will also try and get a cd. You say just to phone you mom? Will look the number up in the phone book.
Hope to see many more posts from you here.

Boks resembling England just prior to RWC 2007.
Lots of the old guard still present.
Conservative game plan.
But look where England got in the comp.
Can Boks go one better?
3 Aug 2011, 19:07 pm
@grant10(grant10)-268: Jinx was 2 years younger than me Grant. Think he was 53 when he passed on.

ALL you pitiful fools.
He more than adequately announced himself after the dismal result Sat. against the ABs.
But true to ‘verkrampte’ form you choose mostly to remain uninformed allowing you to jump to sad, sorrowful conclusions.

@race of tan(race of tan)-245: well noone has noticed because you’re lying. jake went to australia & new zealand with his b-team & left the main bokke in cape town with rassie for a MONTH.
where do u get ur facts?
3 Aug 2011, 19:25 pm
Your pitiful posts will be taken more seriously when you stop premising them with “you pitiful fools”
There are more assertive ways to debate which will lead to win win situations
Insults never cut the mustard

{{ Calculating Majola lied, says report.
A forensic audit of Cricket SA (CSA) run by the accountancy firm KPMG paints a picture of a dysfunctional sports body in which chief executive Gerald Majola appears determined to line his own pocket, allegedly lied, and a board of directors appear ignorant of moves being made on the organisation’s behalf.
Majola is said to have single-handedly negotiated bonus payments with the Indian Premier League (IPL), did not disclose he’d received a bonus for his part in hosting that event and then received further bonus payments for the same event. The same happened with regard to the ICC Champions Trophy }}
Now this clearly is a CHEAT as the forensic evidence reveals. There is a lot more.
He has sullied his family’s good name earned so well by his father the late great Eric Majola(rugby and cricket) and his late brother, Khaya(mostly cricket).

Gary Botha, Johann Muller, Albert Van Den Bergh, Wikus Van Heerden (who did his bit – and admirably so – when Schalk was suspended), Bob Skinstad, Ricky Januarie, Andre Pretorius, Wynand Olivier, Akona Ndungane.
Just a reminder of the fringe players who went to RWC 2007 as part of the Bok squad.
For me, the make-up of the squad is not the issue.
I disagree that new players haven’t come through.
Mtawarira, Ralepelle, Brussow, Alberts, Hougaard, Lambie, De Jongh, Aplon…
The big concern is the lack of coaching and technical nous displayed by the current “brains” trust.
I am placing all hope in this regard on the shoulders of the man with the disco lights.

Hey ET, go **** yourself.

The TRUTH does pitiful quisling.

@PissAnt(PissAnt)-283:
True to the ‘verkrampte’ tradition.
Give more, please do.
3 Aug 2011, 19:36 pm
@ET.(ET.)-285:
No…
My previous post pretty much sums up all I want to say to you and arguably all you deserve too.
So refer above please.

Hooliha!

@PissAnt(PissAnt)-283:
Seconded.
3 Aug 2011, 19:42 pm
Only a sorrowful, sad delinquent could equate this to “win win”. This is not a game, but maybe for you it is.
Life is about the TRUTH which unfortunately affects millions of innocent people mostly..
Where are the ethics of any religion in such matters, ever?
3 Aug 2011, 19:46 pm
@PissAnt(PissAnt)-286:
Sadly you follow my instruction and do, in fact, give more.
Outsmarted is what they call it.
Still enjoy that ‘verkrampte’ vulgar streak as you did late one Sat. night in your highly drunken state after your holy national team were thrashed?
3 Aug 2011, 19:48 pm
@ET.(ET.)-277: and I have apologised to Jinx 2 …..I did not know the connection…..surely if jinx 2 can accept my aplogy in good grace that is enough?

@ET.(ET.)-294:
Refer #283, if this was twitter it would trend worldwide.
3 Aug 2011, 19:50 pm
When the emotional levels get high and anger hits the fan like flying ****, that is when I fold my hands behind my head and smile before roaring with laughter.
It is the best medicine, especially if the TRUTH brings on the reactions of anger time after time.

@grant10(grant10)-295:
Wonder if Jinx 2 is a poet as well?
Balmy summer evening here, now about 23 degrees, bright sunshine….Mud island at its best!
How is winter in Cape Town?

@grant10(grant10)-295:
The simple LESSON, do not jump to conclusions. Without fail it reduces embarrassments.
But white and right go together in S.A., now the land of sour milk and bitter honey for the Minority.

Twit. Why on earth do you assume everyone here has a drinking problem.
Is it an issue you are dealing with yourself.
