    Stormers supporters already crowing like they’ve won their first piece of silverware in 13 years.

    I seem to recall them saying the same thing about the Sharks in this years S15 semis.
    That was until Brock the Rock and the rest of the Province front row got taught a serious lesson by Crockett etc.

    Stormers, sort your tight 5 out before you start your BS please. You’re acting like a place in the semifinals of a seriously diluted CC gives you bragging rights.
    It doesnt.

    hehehe
    of course i didn’t mean it that way, a bit freudian maybe.
    also, like your wife it seems other people don’t like the throat slitting thing either.

    You seem upset.

    If you want to get moist about the hokey pokey maybe you should do it somewhere else?

    @TheTackler(TheTackler)-44: Impossible to say. So many haven’t even taken place yet.

    But seriously, it’s not bad. Would have been a real contender if it weren’t for the time zone.

    And the weather.

    And the refereeing.

    And the incessant Macarena.

    And the tiny stadiums.

    Other than that, well done.

    It seems Hawaii is putting in a bid to hold The Best World Cup Ever in 2059.

    They are hoping to trump the haka with the hula.

    Saw a show on National Geographic last night about real life cannibals in Papao New Guinea. some scary sh*t happening in those jungles.

    One of the guys they interviewed was a spitting image of Wil Genia, minus the shard of bone through his nose and the necklace of (possibly human) teeth, of course.

    Strue.

    Dagg is a class player & will only get better with time which is a scary thought for opposition defenses. Remember him playing for NZ Colts as this skinny wiry youngster who had a whole back of tricks. Also from the conveyor belt of Gordon Tietjens disciples from NZ 7′s. But easy with the hyperbole’s….Culllen is possibly the greatest attacking player in history of the modern game of union. Had a career spanning 8 years in the black jersey.,,10 oe so tries vs SA alone. Dagg while very good,is slower than Cullen,Cullen with an iota of space was good night nurse.

    Oh and finally if you REALLY watched the RWC11 without only noticing the flash moments-you would see Jerome Kaino is the undisputed Player of the Tournament.

    @Brads(Brads)-9: “SA fans on the other hand, having hardly seen the kid before” – having not seen him where…he was special when he was still playing sevens and some of us noticed his talent in 2009 already, in a patchy highlanders team, i even remember ragging some of the sharks supporters here that year saying a kid called israel dagg was going to cut them up alas the ‘landers lost in durban.

    the try you’re talking about we’ve discussed here with mshini & mpundulu ad nauseum, that plonker spies was the first to let dagg past and next up aplon and kirchner were late to react and bang…

    In my humble view Christian Cullen is the best rugby player in the history of the game. Simple as that. And I say that grudgingly, considering he is a Kiwi and all.

    @mshiniwami(mshiniwami)-65: the cullen comparisons are churlish imo…dagg is dagg and shouldn’t be compared with the sole purpose of putting him down.

    the boy is fire.

    @Tacitus(Deucalion)-68:

    Wow…..Thats some praise Tac.

    I wouldnt argue with that assertion neither though. In full flight,Cullen was unstoppable.

    Personally I think Dan Carter is.(never has there been a player who can do EVERYTHING at a HIGH level of efficiency/skillset than Carter).

    But hey thats another debate altogether

    @Transformation(Transformation)-71:

    Fair enough.

    But you know they are bound to come,attacking FB in a Black jersey etc And they arent completely out of context neither.

    Biggest Test is can he do it for nearly a decade. Thats the true measure of a legend. He will be tearing opposition defences for at LEAST the next 2 years as they are still trying to figure him out as he put hid imprint of international rugby.

    After that period is where TRUE class is determined.

    surely the mantle of the greatest of all tiime must go to Plod…..no doubts whatsofarkenever….

    the bloody con job that he is !

    @Robzim(Robzim)-85: Matfield must be right up there – imo the first man to truly make line-out play scientific and strike fear and confusion into opposition. And the tallest 12 to boot when given some space..

    @grant10(grant10)-87: True, he could hold Bismarck from the team with only a motivational speech pre-game and some arguments with the ref. Stuff of legends!

    Sadly, had he retired in 2007, he would have left with so much more

    Ja, I’ve really come to disrespect Smit over the last 2 years. He knows just like you and I know that he wasn’t good enough anymore. But he stuck it out on the 10% chance that we might fluke the World Cup even with him in the team, thus giving him the glory of captaining two World Cup winning sides.

    He put his own ambitions above the good of the team. Simple as that.

    A whole nation’s hopes sacrificed for his vanity.
