@ufo-296:

UFO you have a dodge and step that Christian Cullen would be proud of.

au contraire, mon ami

not playing dodgeball at all…

simply pointing out that any self-acclaimed kiwi rugby fan who did not know that burger is out injured for the year and that bakkies is playing in france… and that neither were named in the CURRENT bok squad as gonzo asserted is no more than a fair-weather fan… and is not here to discuss rugby per se… but to mix it in the bitchfests (his word)…

i won’t take anything he says seriously… if you wish to take that burden upon yourself…

please do so…!!

@Hurricane-294: Sounds fake, most of those haters can't speak English, let alone write/type it!

@the artist formerly known as gunther-251: Well with a south african making a FB page for the haters of Bryce, you see plenty of " Go Die " and " when i see you i am going to beat your head in " etc. Couldn't get through the 80,000+ haters comments on there. But to deny anything of the sort, you really have your head in the sand.

@Atreides-288:
You actually believed that?
What if he said that we are not coached illegal tactics in NZ, would you believe him then?

@ufo-290:
Man very picky i must say.
He got the current players point wrong, but does not mean the rest of what he is saying is incorrect.
You seemed to have dodged that. This is proof of an expert blogger

@gonzo-289: When did i say it's fair play? I said it's not gouging. Stop putting words in my mouth!

@Atreides-288: I'm not disagreeing with that - no doubt, NZers are coached to hold on to people, slow them down, all illegally. What I'm arguing against is this suggestion it's not the same in SA.

@gonzo-286:

obviously not…

what you’re missing gonzo is that the vast majority of bloggers here… whether from sa, nz or aus do in fact know their rugby… whether they get caught up in the spats or not… they still know what they’re talking about when they do discuss the rugby…

seems you’re just here to mix it in the bitchfests… so enjoy them…

but as i said… don’t expect anyone to take you seriously…

gonzo… you are the weakest link…

goodbye

@Atreides-287: Oh sorry, you're right, crushing your fist (which by the way is formed of fingers) into someone's eye is fair play.

@gonzo-286: Uh bud one of your most prominent scrumhalves proclaimed on live tv that they get coached to cheat, so I think the cat's out of the bag already

@gonzo-284: Dude are you kidding me? His hand was in a fist, you can’t gouge someone with a fist. He made reckless contact with the face, and sat 3 weeks.

For your info, this is eye gouging; http://bit.ly/OQqgFT

@ufo-285: I'm not here to discuss rugby? Seems to me 90% of threads here break down into some RSA vs NZ b*tchfest so at least I'm not alone. People here are claiming NZ has a system to promote cheating and it's not the case in SA. That's the point I'm arguing against.

@gonzo-283:

you made the point dude… live with it…

neither was named in the current bok squad as proclaimed by you…

no.. it’s not really the point…

the point is that you’re not here to discuss rugby… so don’t expect anyone to take you seriously from here on out…

you gonna talkcrap on this site you’re gonna get called on it…

@ufo-281: I know Schalk is injured but if he wasn't he would be in the squad. And with Etzebeth injured, Meyer has said he may bring Botha back. But that's not really the point is it?

botha playing in france..

@gonzo-276:

ahh… no dude…

differences of opinion are cool… why most of us post on this site…

but when you get the facts SO wrong you reveal the depth of your interest in rugby…

neither schalk burger or bakkies botha are members of the current bok squad… burger is out injured for the year and botha is playing in fence… the squad was announced on the weekend and neither are in it…

so you see… differences of opinion are not the issue here…

but the fact that you are not even aware that schalk has been injured all season or that bakkies left to play in france show you up as a lightweight… intent more on shitstirring than discussing rugby and differing opinions…

@gonzo-279: Not saying they didn't do anything wrong, you asked a question and I answered it. And Bismarck's finger didn't end up in Thompson's eye

By: gonzo

gonzo — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 09:27:35 +0000

@Atreides-278: Ok so they were both guilty for attacking the face - real fair play. Bismark's fingers happen to end up in Thompson's eye, while he watched him face on. I'm sure it happens all the time

By: Atreides

Atreides — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 09:17:16 +0000

@gonzo-276: Botha was banned for 'attacking the face' but there was no video evidence to suggest biting or a gouge. Bismarck for careless play, his hand made contact with Thompson's cheek and left no mark (this happens numerous times in any match, just watch the guys defending a rolling maul)
