  We understand Mark. You’re a ‘the glass is half empty’ sort of guy.

  They are all over-priced. I paid $2.50 (almost R14) for a can of Iron Brew the other day from the supermarket. If it had been at the SA shop it would’ve been nearing R20.

  I’m not too bothered if he doesn’t. Rugby is a 22 man game these days, and if we can keep things going with John on the field, then imagine what we’ll do when Bissie comes on. I’d be one of the few that would be a tad dissapointed in weakening our bench if they started Bismarck.

  @Mr Black(Mr Black)-18:

  My opinion on the matter… they try upskill people in New Zealand by spoon-feeding them through Polytech courses. At no stage is there any concern about their work-ethic. Nothing wrong with packing someones groceries, or driving a truck if you take pride in it and work hard. Now they’ve got 50% of NZ sitting with tertiary qualifications that they don’t know what do with – a large amount in management, even though their personalities mean they will never in their lives go into a management role.

  South Africans have one-upped the Aussies again. Brewing giant, SABMiller, has flexed its muscles and laid claim to the iconic Australian brand, Foster’s. The takeover of the Australian beer maker should be complete by the end of the year, and the price tag has been confirmed at $10,2 billion, with a bit of change for some dividends.

  The breakthrough deal, which has been on the cards for months, puts SABMiller at the head of the Australian beer market, and further cements the brand’s position as the world’s second largest brewer.

  As part of the deal announced today, Foster’s will return A$0.30 a share as well as a final dividend for year the year ending June 30 2011. This puts the total value of the deal, including debt, at a bit over $12 billion.

  SABMiller History

  The Company was founded in South Africa in 1895 as South African Breweries (SAB): the business operations were mainly limited to southern Africa, where it had established a dominant position in the market, until 1990 when it began investing in Europe.[5]
  After listing on the London Stock Exchange in 1999[5] to raise capital for acquisitions, the group purchased the Miller Brewing Company in North America from the Altria Group in 2002, and changed its name to SABMiller.[5]
  Following this, the group’s next major acquisition was of a major interest in Bavaria S.A., South America’s second largest brewer and owner of the Aguila and Club Colombia brands in 2005.[5]
  The company became engaged in the hostile takeover of Fosters in August 2011,[6] and in September 2011, the board of Foster’s agreed to a takeover bid valuing the company at Aus$9.9bn (USD$10.2bn; £6.5bn).[7] The deal expected to be completed by the end of the year, but exclude the Foster’s lager brand in the UK and Europe, where it is owned by Heineken.[8]

  Hey Keo,

  Why is that even though Ireland beat Australia, and we are actually gaining confidence, getting our selections right slowly but surely, you still don’t think we have a chance? Have you not learned anything from past tournaments?

  The World Cup has nothing to do with what a team looks like on paper, or how good they were before the tournament. It’s all about who wants it more on the day, and who is prepared to stop at nothing to get there. The Irish lost all of there warm-up games, and then beat the Tri Nations champions. The team you said are a shoe-in to face NZ in the final.

  Why is it so hard for you to admit that we are contenders. You say we are going home? How about rather focusing on ways that will aid us in our quest? Patriotism is one thing, maar jy is net vol op pessimisties. Writing us off is retarded. If ANYONE in this tournament is good enough to beat both Australia and New Zealand, then it’s us.

  Australia blew it. Quade Cooper blew it by becoming public enemy no. 1. Their tournament is over, New Zealands is starting tomorrow, and ours is well under way.

• 65.Couchcoach:
  23 Sep 2011, 10:07 am

  Some interesting things I have noticed at this WC:

  1. The game is becoming increasingly professional. No longer do we see those teams who play in 80′s type rugby jerseys, big fat props and “lank en maer” locks and flanks. Players are well conditioned and structures are in place.
  2. Defence is the focus. Rugby union is increasingly beginning to look like rugby league. Teams believe that they can win games with defence only, but what happens when you have two teams who both believe that? The most boring rugby on the planet.
  3. There is a lot riding on this WC for many teams and individuals. J Smit has a helluva lot to prove, as does PDV. The AB’s simply have to win it in their own backyard to prevent a national disaster. Robbie Deans is yet to knock the Wallabies into shape. The NH sides have to prove that they are more than capable of the odd surprise.

  In short, it has been and proves to still be a very interesting WC.

  right keo, some perspective

  - we will beat Aus because we will apply the pressure and not fade like we did in Durban. Quade will have a mare, throw a speculative pass in his 22 and we will score.

  - we will beat New Zealand because they will be put under some pressure and when they are down after 60mins they will start to implode

  - final will be the easiest of the lot.

  Oh some additional perspective – after following keo for the last 7 years the one thing I do know is his predictions (based on his perceptions) are mostly WRONG

  @KEO & general rugby public

  Mate, hats off for trying anything to sound like you behind the Boks but goodness me let’s get real for a minute. Since when I wonder has being dressed like a clown that got hold of Springbok kit and promoting getting pissed on Klippies and coke had anything to do with being fully behind the Boks or made you proudly South African. It’s embarrassing to say the least.

  Now it finally makes sense the nonsense you were writing. I mean how can anyone write anything worth reading when they pissed on that ****. Mate, rather lay off the booz, watch the game and do the writing first and drink after if you really have to. Stay away from the camera if you gonna dress like that with a bottle of booz under your arm please, you making us true Bok supporters look like we love carrying screw drivers & other tools in our socks 24/7…

  I didn’t care about the score against Namibia as the score takes care of itself if the quality of the play is good. But it was a pretty bad performance from the Boks. I gave us a 2/10 against Wales, an 8/10 against Fiji and to be honest I can’t give us more than 5/10 against Namibia. We had many good moments but I’m only gonna talk about the bad ones. Our lineouts were bad, the scrums were good in the first half but we put in less effort in this department in the second half. Our handling errors were appalling in general even though it got better in the second half. I couldn’t help laughing at the comment Bobbie Skinstad made in the first half saying that we should expect the handling errors to be this bad, as the Boks aren’t used to getting so much ball. Still don’t know what he was talking about, don’t think he does either and maybe felt he needed to say something, anything, doesn’t matter how bad or stupid it might have sounded. I mean these players have been catching a rugby ball since they were 4 years old, how in God’s name do you suddenly understandably drop the ball because as a Springbok side you not used to having it so often. Goodness gracious me Bobbie… rather say nothing when you gonna say stuff like that mate. The actual reason we were making so many handling errors and generally being so average to our standards in the first half can be summed up by one word, intensity. It just wasn’t there. One thing we do have a tendency to do in South Africa is drop the urgency and intensity when the game is already won. We tend to slack off when we have achieved our goal or think we have instead of putting the pedal down and really taking the other team to the cleaners. It’s the same reason that Australia and New Zealand and many other top teams always have a chance of winning against us as we tend to lie down and take a breather when we think that we might have done enough to win. The same reason that we have many times been over 15 points ahead of other top sides and then only won the game by a few points when the final whistle has gone. That is the one thing that the Boks need to change going into the play-offs if they are to make sure that they bring the cup home. Plsy to increase the lead, DON’T DEFEND IT!. Trust me on this it’s true if you think about it. And never trust anyone unless it’s me. Intensity or urgency is our main reason for the poor performance against Namibia.

  But mark my words…This is the best Bok side we have ever had and they have all the potential to easily win this World Cup but beware of defending a lead because in my mind this could be their only downfall.

  And just for Keo because he loved it so much…
  Go Bokke!
  Viva Bokke!
  Bliksem Hulle!
  Moer Hulle!

  Bring the Cup Home where it belongs! You have what it takes; show the world what I already know!

I suspect he pulls this type of nonsense to get everybody rubbed up. It’s more attention and traffic on his site. I was listening to Ali Coetzee and Heyneke Meyer on TV the other night. It was so refreshing to hear some proffessional perspective from men who actually know what they’re talking about. There’s a reason they’re paid the big bucks to coach while others are writing columns. As the saying goes; “Critics are the ones who hide up in the mountains while the war is being fought, and when it’s done they come out and shoot the wounded”.

  paul joseph GUNTHER Goebbels is, by his admission, white and as such cannot jump adequately but more importantly cannot adequately pump too.

  Imagine the enormity of his exposed inadequacies, as a typical white, if he should go up against Dennis Rodman?
  Now that man Rodman can really jump and pump with the very, very best of them in this world as his history will reveal.

  So what does Gunther Goebbels do? He goes to Europe and buys something 14′ long and black(but he is white).
  Does anybody doubt that that thing solves not one but , in fact, two problems?

  What else can it be but a 14″ long, black s t r a p o n?

  23 Sep 2011, 17:58 pm

  WTF was that? Stick to the articles china
  As for not klapping Oz –
  1. Our forwards are going to bend their pack backwards that they see their poepstrings. If Pocock isnt fit by then theyre in even deeper dwang
  2. We have Brussouw and Matfield, we have Bismarck and Gurthro and Beast, we have Jannie and Bakkies and Danie, we have Burger. Nuff said
  3. If its wet there aint going to be much running buddies – our favour
  4. They got nailed today with injuries by USA – cant see them all being fit for the quarters. Jury still out on Pocock and Ioane too.
  5. Quade is jittery, his tackling is suspect – he´s going to get his Boofhead shoved up his alie
  6. Their kicking is up the pole – come finals that is going to be a big no no – as opposed to Morne Steyn who has scored 2 rounds of 100% kicks thanks very much
  7. Our team is finding some nice synergy and if we stick with Frans Steyn at 12, keep Habans gamtime limited in favour of Houghaard and bring Aplon in off the bench and possibly de Jongh we can match their backs – period. We are finding some form at the right time.
  8. The Wallies confidence got dented by that loss to Ireland – they dont feel so invincible anymore, and this big win over the USA may just have brought back a bit of cockiness which is all we need.
  9. Pray tell why we should be worried about the Wallabies? We can take them – will be tough but we can take them. If we believe we cant we should just go home.
  10. Our pool has been tough – so we´ll be battle hardened after they cruise in with wins over USA and ahem cough cough – Russia. We will be waiting and relishing the carnage that will ensue.

• 128.Samba Bok:

  @Slumtown(Slumtown)-127: Don’t get too cocky. The Wobblies ship is creaking but they still seem to be much more capable of intelligent play than we do. They can still one up on us. Brute force alone will not help us win. If we keep Frans at 12 we have a better chance. If we bring JdV back and move Frans to 15 you can kiss this RWC goodbye.

• 129.Samba Bok:
  23 Sep 2011, 21:42 pm

  What’s this kak about Keo saying Jdv should be back at 12 and Frans to 15? Its all over rover if that happens. Its little wonder why the Boks have been so static on attack. JdV brings nothing to the game and adds no value.

  Steyn offers physicality, excellent distribution skills and vision. He has really varied his play now and is offloading in the tackle sucking in two defenders at a time because of his size. Morne seems to thrive off Frans. Keep the current midfield partnership. And keep this impact bench thing going but with some tweaks, start Hougaard on the wing and Bismarck. And then this team will do the business in the QF.

  JdV should be on the bench or out of the 22. In fact I would rather see JdJ replace Steyn if he got injured. Replace Frans with Jean and watch it all fall apart. Watch Morne go back into his shell. The ball will not get past 12. Crashball robotic idiot. I don’t rate JdV at all anymore after seeing the new improved Frans.

• 130.Samba Bok:
  23 Sep 2011, 21:52 pm

  @Rugbylife(Rugbylife)-116: Keo profits more from the Boks demise than their success. There is more to write about in failure than success. It is also because Keo will know that he will have massive sloppy egg on his face if they do win the RWC.

  I for one though am not a fan of PdV and it is no coincidence that the Boks have suddenly improved with the inclusion of Rassie in his coaching team. PdV has done a total Jake White. From the team he has picked to bringing along technical advisor and hey presto dramatic improvements.

  If we do win this RWC Rassie should get the credit for it not Div because he has shown in 4 years of coaching he did not have a clue. You do not suddenly become a good coach overnight.

• 131.Slumtown:
  23 Sep 2011, 23:23 pm

  @Samba Bok(JayDaFiveOh)-128: Just saying the way Keo and co goes on its a foregone conclusion that we stand no chance whatsoever. I´m just saying get real. Those are a lot of factors in our favour too. Proof is in the pudding I guess. I think the Oz backs are devastating but theyre not a complete team yet and their success in the Tri Nations and Super 15 this year is going to their heads.

• 132.Slumtown:
  23 Sep 2011, 23:29 pm

  @Samba Bok(JayDaFiveOh)-129: Dont forget Buthc at 10 and drop Morne. The kuk they write and that were supposed to lap up. Jean De Villiers is the cancer in the backline if you ask me. And whilst theyre at it they can keep Habana on the sidelines too. My perfect team for the finals would be:
  1 Gurthro
  2 Smit (hes going to be there so he´s in)
  3 Jannie
  4 Danie Rossouw
  5 Matfield
  6 Brussouw
  7 Burger
  8 Spies (not convinced about Alberts at 8 – too slow)
  9 Fourie du Preez
  10 M Steyn
  11 Francois Houghaard
  12 Frans Steyn
  13 Jacques Fourie
  14 JP Pietersen
  15 Patrick Lambie
  16 Beast
  17 Bismarck
  18 CJ van der Linde
  19 Bakkies
  20 Alberts

• 133.J.B. Cowper:
  23 Sep 2011, 23:40 pm

  I agree with all the pro-Bokke views so far – this side should keep its A+ game for the quarters (where they will defeat Australia, no doubt at all about that – irrespective of what game the Wallabies bring to the table) and then play the Game of their Lives in the semi-final: if they can do that the whole country of New Zealand will go into deep trauma, shock and mourning.

  Frans Steyn is in majestic form – as we who have never waivered in singing his potential have said all along. His centre play is a revelation and what’s been missing in our backline for as long as I can remember.

  Having said that I am open-minded to his playing fullback because that is now the area of weakness – Lambie, Pienaar, whoever, are all very ordinary there – and it is the CRITICAL position. Steyn is the best fullback on the planet and has been for 10 years. Let’s try out Jean de Villiers against Samoa – though, if it’s a rib cartliage he’s unlikely to survive it. And if he doesn’t play well – then we have to move Frans back there – because it is a critical position also; and play Lambie – but prepare for the Antipodean teams targeting him and it will be torrid.

  As for that Bok pack ….. yirrah, yissus man but can they donner?

• 137.Alucard:
  24 Sep 2011, 01:14 am

  @J.B. Cowper(J.B. Cowper)-133: Jean will not be any better. It’s like saying, lets play Carter at 15, he ticks all the boxes in terms of skill set, so seeing as it’s THE weakness, we must have him there. He just won’t be able to do it. Frans is not even in the top 10 15s at test level. He has never been a world class 15, and was badly shown up by both Kirchner and Aplon last year. He is not a natural 15. 12 is a far more important position, as seen by how Jean has singlehandedly stunted our backline the last 4 years. We will never beat any meaningful opposition with him. Frans simply must play 12, it’s the ONLY way we can get the most out of him and truly benefit the team. Agreed though on Lambie. An average player all round.

• 138.Samba Bok:
  24 Sep 2011, 01:40 am

  @J.B. Cowper(J.B. Cowper)-133: Lambie has had two games at fullback still coming back from injury and suddenly he is an average player. ***** I say give him another chance. You can’t move Frans so who else is going to play fullback? It is another example of poor planning by the 3 stooges.

  And good god what have you some of people calling for Smit to stay been smoking? You want Smit to play for 80 minutes?! You can’t be right in the head if you think that. You want a fat slow cumbersome hooker on for 80 minutes in place of the best hooker in the world, a human wrecking ball and an extra fetcher. Bismarck is 5 times the player than Smit and he is practically 2 players in one.

  It is a goddamn disgrace that this oke is sitting on the bench right up until the 60th minute. And dropping Louw from your 22 is also shocking. He was brilliant against Fiji. I would prefer to see Louw and Brussouw combine as a loose trio instead of headless chicken Schalk. With Bismarck, Louw and Brussouw you would have 3 fetchers on the ground and if you bring on Alberts you’ve 4 big ball carriers there. It would cause absolute havoc for the defending team.

  I agree about dropping JdV. Keep Morne where he is for now. He seems to play much better with Frans next to him. Habana should be subbed half-way through for Hougaard.

• 139.Kobus Kitty:
  24 Sep 2011, 02:01 am

  @Alucard(Alucard)-137:

  So umm… you rate Kirchner as a better fullback than Frans? Oh. What a thickshit. Steyn is better suited at 12 and should remain there for the rest of the world cup, but that is not to say that he is not a devastating fullback. He kicks 20-30 meters further than any other player in world rugby.

  Lambie should be alright at fullback as long as du Preez is there. du Preez is always fielding at the back and taking the pressure off the 15.

  @Samba Bok(JayDaFiveOh)-138:

  @Samba Bok(JayDaFiveOh)-138: Smit will stay. Thats it. Make your peace. My point is, and I am surprised that you are unable to see it, that Smit was called fat and useless 15 765 times in the past 6 months. If someone is so fat and useless, how would he be able to play for 80 minutes? Can you play test rugby for 80 minutes? How much do you weigh?

  I’ve said it many times. Bismark is better. No one can dispute that. But, Smit is playing his heart out. Acknowledge that. He will go down as a Great. Respect to the man.

  As far as your other “facts” about who should play when and where are concerned, I agree with most.

I did my research before posting you think stompi. A big boot at 15 is not enough. He is not a good 15, not a natural 15. One try does not change that.At best 15th best test option, that ONLY because of his boot. He is however our best 12 by a considerable distance, he even says so himself.
