RYAN VREDE says that Rassie Erasmus, Fourie du Preez and Victor Matfield must not be spared criticism if the Springboks’ game plan is ineffective and fails to yield results.

@RugbyGuru_0_(RugbyGuru_0_)-298: i reckon we rather wait and see….the kiwis really seem on top of there game ….lineouts may be a kiwi weakness but we will need to play our best 15 to have any chance and as long as plod, spies and M Steyn are in the mix I dont believe we got a chance…
also feel we will need a fit juan smith and brussow….
The A bekker loss may come back to haunt us as well

@poppa69(poppa69)-299: boet topaz is an ars ehole.
look at his nic, he hates me because i take him on just the same way i have just done with you?
so if a saffa reads your posts for the first time he is justified in thinking that all kiwis are a cunch of bunts?
who cares where it starts and ends buddy, its your choice but you will NEVER change the people who you are aiming at, you will simply become their mirror image.
maybe you dont see that but i hope that you realise it soon because if you carry around what you are displaying on here daily, you will eventually act out in real life and your intolerance will affect those around you, not just the bloggers on this meaningless website.
good luck, i must go now.

@JL1(JL1)-303: for me the boks only chance of winning the wc will be a pack consisting of juan smith, bissy and brussow….absolute must haves to beat kiwis as well…..we will have to pray matfield comes through unscathed….we dont have a decent 5 lock in reserve…

@ grant10(grant10), keep the faith brother, boks will beat aussies this weekend and we will beat Nz the following weekend. Yes Nz looks awesome but they always do, if we implement our kicking game plan with du preez, james, fransie and if matfield can disrupt the line outs then we will give ourselves good chance of retaining WC

@grant10(grant10)-305: Well Juan is still on the sideline, Bissy makes a difference but …….. yc proned and he needs some back up, soft on scrum as well
Brussouw is key, absolute key
10 Aug 2011, 21:21 pm
@grant10(grant10)-307: I also heard via the grapevine that these Boks want to put their bodies on the line for 7 big games to win the cup, and be heroes with fat pay cheques for life

@rangerman(rangerman)-304: Hey Range… very well spoken Bru. Perfect.
May you be blessed with your full quota of bugs & abundant uncrowded surf.
Catch you later for a bulldust.

well played ranger, even for a squirrel hunter, you still have a heart!
10 Aug 2011, 23:23 pm
Give it a rest Poppa. Your incessant whining is tiring.
Perhaps you need another break from Keo? Grant10 has had at least 7 breaks from Keo already.

@Transformation(Transformation)-314: suck up.

So much for the much vaunted ’30 k man squad’
VITO CALLED IN
Thursday, 11 August 2011
8.38 a.m.
Wellington and Hurricanes loose
forward Victor Vito has been
brought into the All Blacks
training camp, a precursor to the
trip away to face South Africa.
The 24-year-old will train with
fellow squad members over the
next two days before the team is
announced to fly to South Africa
on Friday.
Vito will be looking to add to his six Test
caps, all of which were achieved last year.
His last Test was the All Blacks’ 23-22 win
over Australia in Sydney.
Vito’s inclusion comes after coach Graham
Henry indicated his side would likely take
just 24 players on the trip instead of the
maximum of 27.
It is understood star first five-eighths Dan
Carter and flanker Richie McCaw could be
rested in order to give themselves a chance
to freshen up before the World Cup.

Why single out Matfield and FDP among the players? Why not throw in the two WP veteran midfielders?

@poppa69: 296 Here’s a stat for you NZ have never beaten the Boks in a WC
95 – Loss in Final
99- Loss in 3rd/4th playoff
Only time you boys won 87 Boks not there. We have plenty faith in beating you. Quiet frankly I agree with Louis Luyt on this one Boks in 86 beat NZ(only John Kirwan did not tour). That Bok team was quite possibly the strongest we ever had likes of Naas Botha, Danie Gerber, Carel DuPlessis. You lucky we did not play

@Champs 95 07 and Beyond(Champs 95 07 and Beyond)-320: Not quite, brother. They knocked us out in 2003.
11 Aug 2011, 08:45 am
@stormer in a teacup: 321 Boet quite possibly you are right. That is a year I have obliterated from my memory. I think my mind sizzled to pulp when we only managed to scrape past Georgia. The worst showing by Boks by far. Man those were dark years
11 Aug 2011, 10:11 am
@Champs 95 07 and Beyond(Champs 95 07 and Beyond)-320:
2003 you muppet. they thrashed us in the QF before losing to Aussies in the semis.
just stick to the fact our success rate at world cups is 50%, theirs 17%
