    @Heavens Game(Heavens Game)-145: well, a Bokke loss would then set up the possibility of an Ab vs Bokke final, so would not be too bad a thing imo… it could also mean one side of the draw would be a veritable minefield, imagine Eng, Aus, Sa and NZ/France on the same side of the draw after the pool stages….

    @UptheGuts(UptheGuts)-146: real dumb of him… I understand he has to show faith in his side, but adding fuel to the oppositions fire isnt the way to do so..

    @poppa69(poppa69)-151: If NZ are on their “correct side” – i.e. the one they are expected then undercooked in the final?

    Counter intuitive, yes but consider:
    Scots/Arg quarters
    Then Wales/Ire Semi… Sheezus – both Wales and Ire will be farked by the time they meet ABs

    The other side of the draw will be naturals selection – survival of the fittest, and the survivor will be one gnarled, tough team by then…

    Could be interesting.

    Is no one going to tease Keo about his ‘advertising’…”You can place a bet with Marshall’s”

    Tomorrow it might be “Get your shorts whiter than white with new improved Daz washing powder”

    @Heavens Game(Heavens Game)-158: two sides to that coin though, teams on the harder side may just use to much petrol in getting to the final…

    regardless, I truly think whoever wins the thing will have to really earn it…

    @RL(RL)-171: Would agree that he hasn’t been the enforcer he was in the past however a WC could have been just the platform to get him back to that level. Its all about the squad and not individuals though and hopefully the 3 wise man have thought about the impact of various “risk” scenarios such as this on their game plan.

    expect a bit of ‘rust’. The Taffs will come out firing for sure. I do expect the Boks to take it but it wont be a stroll in the park some want us to believe.

    Just purchased two A tickets for the game on Sunday… I’ll be supporting the boks (cos I want to see an AB v Bok semi final) and my wife will be supporting Wales (something to do with the lovely friendly welsh supporters she met at a game at Millenium Stadium…. ugh). I am excited, this will be the game of the round – possibly of all the pool matches.

    Can’t wait to Sunday! The stadium had better have sorted out its sh*t sound system that made such a mess of the Bok anthem last month….

    @Tecumseh(Tecumseh)-181: Yes, I hope so! Although she supports the AB’s, she tends to support the under dog as well, so cheers when the AB’s get a try scored against them…. there must be a law against that!

    Hey all. Have been lurking on this site for some time and have decided that, with the World Cup, it’s time to participate (yeah yeah, call me a troll). Grateful if someone could explain why South Africans always cheer when Bryan Habana gets the ball. After all, he hasn’t scored an international try in over 2 years (obviously, the tries against Italy don’t count) . . .

    @Sweet Nubbins(Sweet Nubbins)-183: Once Habs gets his confidence back he will be back to his try scoring ways. I think the Bok supporters cheer him on to build his confidence???

  • 185.Sweet Nubbins: Reply to this comment
    9 Sep 2011, 00:16 am

    Or clap because he for once managed to be onside and actually capture the ball instead of handing try-scoring opportunities to the opposition with his dumb obsession with intercepts?

    @Sweet Nubbins(Sweet Nubbins)-185: Habana is legend… simple.

    Saffas might slag him off or moan about him from time to time, but when the real crunch comes most would rather have him there than almost any other 11 on the planet…

    Its not just his scoring that counts ( which is also adversely affected by Dippy Divs tactics) its his wokrate especially his cross cover defence – none better. He also tackles better than most centres because way back when, he was a pretty good one…

    Capiche?

    @Heavens Game(Heavens Game)-186: I agree. I’d much rather face the Boks in a semi-final without Habs. Although he is out of form, he could still pull off a 14 point intercept when the AB’s are hot on attack, and put the game out of our reach.

    Still, it must be a concern for the Boks that so many of their players are out of form, or coming back from injury. They are leaving a lot to fate…..

    So the self same Mark Keohane that tells the rugby public in South Africa to “grow up” following the delightfully humorous “moer hulle” send off, refers to a voilent terrorist atrocity as a reference to Sundays game

    Nice one, keo. Your hypocrisy and shallowness know no bounds.

    @corporal punishment(corporal punishment)-187: I must say, my main concern with Habana is form. Appreciate he is still young by most standards but I do wonder whether the Boks should’ve been more focused in the past few years of developing some new talent. We shall soon see.

    9 Sep 2011, 02:39 am

    @Sweet Nubbins(Sweet Nubbins)-189: As long as he doesn’t find form prior to the end of a semi’final or final against the AB’s, I will be happy

    Good luck to all teams at the RWC, its both a pleasure and an honor to be the host, the atmosphere is superb, many cars with all teams flags, banners, you name, most people here are embracing this event thats about to start

    About to head down to the waterfront for some serious celebrations n stuff!

    Picking Samoa to shake a few sides, and might squeeze into the quarters ahead of Wales, with SA topping that group
    Also picking England to snuff out Aus in their potential semi
    and like most kiwis, lets hope we can get the gorilla off our back….

    Kia Kaha!
