Slop has his own column here already.
2 Feb 2012, 07:59 am
Who got fired?
Or has Vrede finally packed his bags for New Zealand?

@au revoir mon tout noirs, au revoir…-3:
I guess it would make you proud to have your lover doing something that you
could both boast about at your next Women’s Book Club meeting.

Well if they hire fuckadilly they are going to have to install another shortarse urinal at Gnome Towers.
Will he able to upload his articles from his nokia 3310?
2 Feb 2012, 08:08 am
how much you paying Simon? But better realize I’m no ‘junior’ writer, you want some hard core no frills left field sarcy head high journalism give me a call, and you don’t need my CV you got 5 years of curricular activity to determine whether I fit your bill or not. Otherwise employ a ‘junior’ if that what you looking for.

@Fern is not a stud,he is merely no19-1: Salary would be discussed at the interview.
2 Feb 2012, 08:11 am
@Simon-10: I wanna earn more than Keo and be able to ban all WP-supporters from this site.
These are my conditions.
Take it or leave it.
2 Feb 2012, 08:11 am
My vote goes to one of the following 3
1 Gwant10
2 Justbuggery
3 Asshampoop
For pure comedic value of course.
2 Feb 2012, 08:11 am
a junior sports writer?
How about starting with just getting A sports writer?
Skop, you will have to insist on a new Nokia.
2 Feb 2012, 08:12 am
Ryno Gerber signed a short term deal with the Bulls.
See, Im more than competent.

@stormer in a teacup-5:
well who would be the most suitable of all bloggers on keo?
@Great White Sharks gonna get ya-7:
no. if i had to play the naughty way then skop would not be my kind of man. i also would not belong to a book club, but its all moot as i am thoroughly onside in my sexual orientation.
no offense skop.
@the artist formerly known as gunther-8:
he would be like debra patta on acid… with a loaded magnum. hard hitting journalism would take on a whole new meaning.

@ashampoopaloo-9:
Ja like he’ll even consider hiring someone that’s bipolar.
2 Feb 2012, 08:13 am
Warning to all who are interviewed…
If you do not declare your love of Puke Twatson, no job pal.
2 Feb 2012, 08:14 am
@Simon-10:
could you at lest give us a ballpark figure?
2 Feb 2012, 08:14 am
@ashampoopaloo-9:
Ja no, if you want to hire an 1di0t Simon, definitely give this guy a call.
2 Feb 2012, 08:14 am
@au revoir mon tout noirs, au revoir…-15: well, as long as they don’t consider Eternal Tripe…
2 Feb 2012, 08:15 am
Dawn would be perfect. All her one line sentences would make for easy reading.
2 Feb 2012, 08:16 am
@au revoir mon tout noirs, au revoir…-18: 2c per word and a case of Windhoek on the 25th
2 Feb 2012, 08:18 am
full or part time?
2 Feb 2012, 08:20 am
Where is Vrede? Did the dwarf fire him because of his over the top punting for Luke – for reasons unknown to us (and him apparently him too)
2 Feb 2012, 08:23 am
@Taahirah-11: Then you’d have to man up and get a real name. One that isn’t a girly one.
2 Feb 2012, 08:26 am
Why don’t you get a buddying journalist from the ‘previously disadvantaged’ community??
Now that would be cool.
He could learn his trade from the ‘greats’ – Mark Keohane; Ryan Vrede; Simon ….. and some of the others whose names I cannot remember!
2 Feb 2012, 08:27 am
@hendrikp-6: @RL-24: Guys, settle down. I understand the desperation to know if I was signed by a rival website on transfer deadline day. But I’m still here. New Zealand can wait. I work in Cape Town and earn more money than a Man City player. Why leave? And for the record, I didn’t ask anything about Luke at the press conference.
2 Feb 2012, 08:30 am
@Ryan-27: so what you are saying is one more season of the Vrede show on Keo tv.
2 Feb 2012, 08:32 am
@RL-28: What I’m saying is a couple more seasons of irritating the living **** outta you. That is more satisfying than any facet of my job.
2 Feb 2012, 08:34 am
@Ryan-27:
Hehe that actually made me laugh.
True, my guess would’ve been Mark asking the Luke Watson questions… didn’t see any of it but read there were questions asked. It’s a very Keo-like thing to ask.
2 Feb 2012, 08:35 am
@Ryan-29:
2 Feb 2012, 08:35 am
@Ryan-27: I think you meant to say ‘I earn more money than a Man City supporter.
Can I apply?
I can be your fact checker.
And thanks for clearing up the Luke Watson thing. What did you ask?
I’m genuinely interested.
2 Feb 2012, 08:36 am
@Ryan-29:
Long as you guys stay out of North Shore I’m happy. One more strange Keo-TV video at the SA shop, and I’m jumping from Harbour bridge.
2 Feb 2012, 08:37 am
@RL-24: Correction: For reasons we “wouldn’t understand”
Check yourself buddy.
2 Feb 2012, 08:37 am
@Ryan-27: Keo dollars don’t count as real money…
2 Feb 2012, 08:37 am
@stormersboy-32: ” I think you meant to say ‘I earn more money than a Man City supporter.”
Classic.
2 Feb 2012, 08:39 am
Will you be holding psychometric evaluations and judging presentations by the candidates?
Have you made a HSM jacket for Pissant and guaranteed him the position only to appoint the poodle-****** at the last minute for ‘non-rugby’ reasons?
No but seriously on this site there would be no better than Morne (PA) you could give him a part-time freelance job, let him keep his current employer (even so he spends more time writing on rugby)… but he has to be able to keep Ruggaworld
2 Feb 2012, 08:39 am
Hey Ryan, why don’t you recruit the guys in the office to face off against the Keo regulars?
Guys from ‘The Rugby Club’ all play… including Phil Kearns, Rod Kafer, Tim Horan, Greg Martin & Brendan Cannon…
http://superrugbyfantasy.foxsports.com.au
After deciding your team, join the league named ‘keo.co.za’. The league code is 150-3348
Just a bit of fun for the Keo regulars. Good luck to all.
2 Feb 2012, 08:40 am
Ps he’d probably do it for beer and a braai-pack per day…
2 Feb 2012, 08:40 am
@stormersboy-32: He didn’t ask anything. Keo was sitting on his shoulders to be able to see over everyone else and he had to hold Keo’s notepad between his teeth.
2 Feb 2012, 08:40 am
Without Ryan there wouldn’t be any Blue Bulls articles, and then what would the likes of Tacitus do?
Stormers bashing gets boring after a while if there’s no Blue Bulls to compare them to.
2 Feb 2012, 08:42 am
@hendrikp-17: Yes, if you don’t have a poster of Luke on your bedroom wall, don’t bother applying.
2 Feb 2012, 08:44 am
I wonder how much shorter than Keo you have to be to qualify as a “junior”?
2 Feb 2012, 08:45 am
@Taahirah-11: lol.
2 Feb 2012, 08:45 am
@Simon-42: hahahahahaha
Classic.
How about Butch?
I read his book.
You can quiz me if you like
2 Feb 2012, 08:47 am
@Simon-42:
Now that we’ve established that…
I don’t think you’re going to find a credible candidate on here
Best advertise elsewhere.
2 Feb 2012, 08:47 am
My wife publishes the odd article, mostly in magazines on psychology related matters to do with kids and stuff.
I think she’d be the perfect writer for this site,
Plus she’d class up the joint a bit too.
2 Feb 2012, 08:49 am
On a serious note:
(1) Mshiniwami
(2) Pissant
(3) willievz
Though I doubt any of these guys would be interested in a junior post.
2 Feb 2012, 08:49 am
little Hendrina hendrapoepy living like a luke bashing displaced japie in New Zealand calling the desperate devious shots from over there. At least Luke is still an African and a proud as punch one at that, what can fak’d out displaced half relevant nincompoop expatriated exiles like this dutchy dewdrop delinquent who thinks he might still have any thing relevant to suggest about anything African let alone who keo.co.za employs or represents, from his displaced convenient sissies chicken arsed hideaway hidy hole in somebody else’s island country over there?
Him and his east Timor great white brotherhood protection racketeering mercenary, should start another colony for displaced dewy eyed delinquents who couldn’t quite cut it in the real world over here.

@trupisero-20:
et couldn’t write his way into a toilet cubicle. he’s got some sort of hunter s thompson slash stream -of-consciousness thing going sure, only thing is its not good, often incoherent, poorly written, badly spelled, very rambly and shot through with bad grammar.
i really, really would not pay money or even subscribe for free to any journal or other that he would/could write for. its mostly 1980′s sounding udf kind of slogany nonsensical stuff. yes, there is a message deep inside the medium somewhere or perhaps a medium deep inside the message… but there is also a lot of white noise and static.
@trupisero-22:
well, as long as they dont make me buy the windhoek..?…
