  @cab(cab)-229: If you look at this blog we all want to kill Divvy , lets support them regardless if your favourite player does not play.

  @wpstormerbok(wpstormerbok)-241:
  no you know what the worst type of bok supporters is, its the same as the worst type of old nationalist, the one who runs with the wolves and hunts with the hounds – having a go at PdV is the easy target, and most of you fall into that category. Smit has had his time, it is simply completely unfair that he is starting over Bismarck.

  @cab(cab)-240:

  That’s alright and I know you’re no basher.

  But I want to ask you, can you at least see the merit of the decision of starting JS, and it’s been working so far so why should they change it?

  By merit i mean – Div has decided that John is captain, he’ll run on and keep a calm head in the opening exchanges. The game will be tight so this will suit him. JS is also no impact player therefor there’s no use in sending him on at minute 50.

  Add to that you’ll gain max impact out of Biz from minute 50 when defences have tired, also even if Biz started he won’t have the same impact from the beginning as the opposition will be more alert and fired up and contain him better than they would’ve after after 50.

  Can you at least see into Div’s decision when you look at it that way?

  @cab(cab)-230: Morning Cabbie,

  One thing I have huge, huge respect for Peter is his loyalty. Never seen anything like that ever. For me that shows top class quality in a person. He has my respect.

  His only mistake in this world cup was playing his key players against Samoa. Should have rested them. Our reserves would have done the job. We might not have had as many injuries and still had our play maker in Fransie. Easy said now but he should have.

  We must all just get behind Peter and his Boks.

  I have also learned over the years to enjoy his way of saying things. Damn funny. At first never did. But he has grown on many of us to really enjoy him.

  Whether he is the best coach or not, he has my respect and support.

  @cab(cab)-252:

  I’m presuming you’re not really meaning I’m having a go at Div when you said ‘most of you fall in that category.’?

  Just to be clear I’ve been backing him all the way during the WC as his decisions have proven correct just as I criticised him last year when his lack of development of players got shown up, his decision of fattening up JS failed and his choice of not resting his key players on the end of year tour 2009 came back to haunt us.

  Div obviously doesn’t share you view that JS is done, in fact he’s put his faith in him to do the job as i’ve described above and he’s backed John do come at this very moment since the start of the TriNations.

  thats also fine, he is right more often than not, and he also has a sense of fairness that completely bypasses most u morons.
  you on the other hand been whinging about de villiers since his inception and all of a sudden u taken the patriotic highround – what a laugh.

  its like the old SA ne, if you dont support then you a traitor, well guess what i’m proud to a traitor, i’ll stand by my own principles when i consider something to be unfair unlike most wafting fanny-arsed compliant sheep.

  and the truth of the matter is, i dont give a fk about the springbok never have, but i still hope above hope that south africa does well.

  rotten, rotten, weather in Wellington this week. Wet wet wet, and windy windy windy. The sneakinesses won’t like that at all, that’s for real! This weather and the soft ground is perfect for Bokke rugby, and a disaster for the Aussies.

  @cane(cane)-247: YouKnowWho was (erroneously) informed that he and his ilk could rewrite history in our new rainbow nation. So forgive him, but he is on a mission to change a few things. His big project this year has been to change the definition of Nazi from “rightwing socialists who advocate Aryan supremacy” to “nasty people who poke fun at fat coloured expats”. He’s been struggling for traction on this, but is one determined little beaver.

  @wpstormerbok(wpstormerbok)-253: I think also with John starting we can weigh it up and see the situation. If we start to fall behind then we just bring on Bissie. Even if it means in the first half. If we are still close on the score board then we bring on Bissie in the 2nd half. Not after 50min. I would bring him on for the full last 40min or 35min. When the otherside will be feeling tired in their legs.

  Just have to see how the game is going. If we need Bissie sooner like I said, we just bring him on.

  John is a powerful scrummager he will tire them up for Bissie to just run havoc over them. I wish we had Beast though on the bench too.

  Correct and I even said yesterday the gamble is that we can’t fall to far behind, but on balance it’s a good decision because can anybody honestly put his money on the Aussies going into a 20 point lead at halftime?

  @cane(cane)-269: No Cane. We would still have won that game. I am talking of 4 players that should have been restested and protected from those thugs. Fransie, Burger, Brussow and JPP should have been rested. We should have put them in cotton wool for the quarter. We had good enough reserves to take the knocks there for the best players to play in this quarter injury free.

  We would still have beaten them with our reserves, I have no doubt about it.

  I’ve been missing the wall to wall rugby from the pool weeks, slight withdrawal symptoms! It’s been perked up by the bok and aussie supporters in town however, and I think it will be a good night tomorrow with all the bars full of supporters. That is if they aren’t hiding in their hotels due to the awful weather!

  it is a real shame these two teams have to play each other so early in the comp.

  @capebull(capebull)-205:

  Would rather have a guy who gets over the advantage line at will-ball carrying,is destructive at collision points-his cleaning is superb,makes his tackles especially of the premier ball carriers who opposition use to get over advantage to drive momentum-Alberts with his superior bulk/power/technique hit them behind advantage while Spies just rides tackle.Would much rather have a player who counter rucks with accuracy and power which Alberts does.

  Alberts is a bigger,stronger more powerful player vitally intergral especially to dominating collision which Boks have been talking about all week AND knockouts place premium at collision point.Spies isnt as adapt at those points.

• 291.Slumtown:
  6 Oct 2011, 11:38 am

  My 2 cents worth – Bismarck should be starting but if Smit can hold his own for the first half then I think Bismarck will be unleashed just after half time and man he´s going to be like a bull in a china shop. If we can pressurise the ozzies till then theyre going to struggle come subs time.
  CJ instead of Beast – I know its for the tighthead aspect but Beast is far more dynamic. Again glad F Louw is there as insurance for Heinrich and if Heinrich is struggling it might be wise to put Burger at 8 and have both F Louw and Brussouw attacking the ball in tandem – Doubt very much if Pocock could handle that. Then bring Alberts on in the last 20. We have loads of loose forward fire power in this pack, ideally you would want to play Bismarck, Rossouw, Alberts, F Louw, Brussouw and Schalk at the same time with Jannie and Gurthro making up the numbers. The ozzies wont stand a chance in the loose with that configuration.
  Lets just hope Jean catches a effing wake up and starts passing the ball.

  @mshiniwami(mshiniwami)-288:

  Ye Spies is the only selection which I’m not entirely comfortable with.

  There’s nothing wrong with his ball carrying when there’s a bit of space, but the thing is there won’t be much on offer in this match early on that’s why he could’ve been better from the bench as you suggested. Also his defensive is soft.

  Let’s hope he fronts as Keo and his gang always say.

  i too don’t see him as an idiot at all but just feel that he is not competent as a coach or tactical/intellectual reader of the game (if you will). he is however an outstanding ‘man’ manager with a great charismatic ability to get the players he coaches in the right frames of mind imo.

  well ive tried to keep it as civil as possible, Smit is a great springbok, but it is completely unfair that he is starting over Bismarck, and there are ppl on this here forum that cannot even tolerate that viewpoint despite them being some of the biggest naysayers in christendom – as much as i want this team to do well i simply cannot listen to kak.

  But Katman is quite correct, he’s criticisms i will take on board, since he is one of the few that are not complete bladdy hypocrties on here.
