Your problem is – you cant stand us winning, can you? Like many on here, we get accused of cheating, of corruption, of poaching, of influencing refs, getting away with forward passes, travel factor that has less impact than others, the list goes on.
I mean, come on man, what else have you got? Through all of this, we play the quickest brand of rugby, with highly skilled athletes, and a big dose of intelligence.

Only in very recent times, have we actually started to see some SA fans genuinely acknowledge that their team is simply not as good as New Zealand, or putting it more succinctly, NZ are way ahead of the pack.

And all you can do is be a cry baby about it.

Harden up f*** face.

Having now had the opportunity to compare the version from my couch with the version from Block 321 Row J, I would have to say that I was a liitle less right than you were more wrong.

SBW was very strong. Very strong indeed. The ‘Showpony’ in him still looks for himself on the live replay screen between each break however. He was excellent nevertheless.

But if you think Nonu is a decent 13, well all the evidence points to the contrary. Hes a brilliant 12 but how many defensive errors and spilled passes at 13 do you
need before realising its a specialist position where a GP wont do ?

I’d put NZs superior record to SA and Aus down to the fact The ABs know how to use both the the club and the rapier.

They can physically front up to the Bok in a 10 man game of attrition and triumph, a week later play a high speed aerobic 15 man game against the Wallabies and still come out on top.

SA continue to struggle to evolve a world class attacking game and Aus only field a world class tight five once a decade at best.

This ability of the ABs to change their game plan to suit the occasion is a huge factor in their ongoing success.

Spooner is himself trying to adopt another persona and it’s not fooling anybody.

Especially when he wants the Sharks to put 100 past the Kings. He’s one of the Saarks clan all right.

Lions supporter, my arse.

HI TO MY FELLOW RUGBY GURU’S, LOVERS AND REALISTS, I KNOW THERE ARE MANY OF YOU.

I COULDN’T HELP NOTICING THAT MANY WERE SUPRISED ABOUT AUSTRALIA GETTING HAMMERED IN THIS GAME, ESPECIALLY THE AUSTRALIAN RUGBY EXPERTS. HERE IS A REALITY CHECK, IT’S NOT JUST THE FACT THAT THE ALL BLACKS ARE SO INCREDIBLY GOOD, BUT ALSO A RESULT OF THE AUSSIES BEING SO INCREDIBLY BAD AT THE MOMENT. AUSTRALIAN TEAMS AND MOST PLAYERS WERE TERRIBLE IN THE SUPER15 AND THIS WAS MERELY A CONTINUATION OF THAT FORM, NO ROCKET SCIENCE, JUST PLAINLY OBVIOUS. AFTER WATCHING THE SUPER15, COULD YOU REALLY EXPECT ANYTHING LESS THAN A DRUBBING TODAY? MAYBE IF YOU A DIE HARD AUSSIE SUPPORTER BLINDED BY YOUR SUPPORT FOR YOUR COUNTRY THEN YES. BUT TO ME, IF ANYTHING I WAS SURPRISED THE ALL BLACKS DIDN’T WIN BY MORE. SO, ARE THE ALL BLACKS BEATABLE? OF COURSE THEY ARE. THAT IS IF YOU KNOW WHAT I KNOW. PLEASE NOTE I USE THE WORD KNOW NOT BELIEVE OR BELIEF AS I AM STATING A FACT BASED ON KNOWLEDGE OF OUR PLAYERS AND CURRENT FORM AND THIS IS NOT A MATTER OF OPINION AS IS THE CASE WITH BELIEF.

SO WHAT DOES THE SUPER15 AND THE FORM OF PLAYERS WHO PLAYED IN THE SUPER15 TELL US ABOUT THE REST OF THE RUGBY CHAMPIONSHIP? FIRST OF ALL IT TELLS US THAT THERE ARE ONLY 2 TEAMS REALLY COMPETING HERE. THE ALL BLACKS AND THE BOKS. IT TELLS US THAT THE AUSSIES BASED ON CURRENT FORM WILL HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF NOT ENDING 4TH BEHIND THE PUMAS. IT ALSO TELLS US THAT EVEN THOUGH ROBBIE DEANS IS NOT THE RIGHT COACH FOR THE AUSSIES (ONLY BECAUSE HE IS NOT AUSTRALIAN), THAT IT IS NOT BY ANY MEANS HIS FAULT THAT THE AUSSIES WERE SO POOR IN THEIR OPENING GAMES OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP AS ALL THE AUSSIE TEAMS BAR ONE OR TWO PLAYERS WERE SIMILARLY POOR DURING IN THE SUPER15.

FURTHERMORE, IT TELLS US HOW IMPORTANT HOME GAMES ARE AND EVEN MORE IMPORTANT WINNING AWAY FROM HOME. IF THE BOKS WIN THE GAME AGAINST THE ALL BLACKS ON THE 15TH OF SEPTEMBER IN DUNEDIN, THEY WILL WIN THE FIRST RUGBY CHAMPIONSHIP. THAT’S A CALCULATED PREDICTION BASED ON CURRENT FORM, AND A VERY REAL CHANCE OF IT HAPPENING IF CERTAIN THINGS HAPPEN THE WAY THEY SHOULD BE HAPPENING. BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THAT THE BOKS CAN EASILY WIN AGAINST THE ALL BLACKS IN DUNEDIN IF ONLY THEY KNOW WHAT I KNOW. THEY HAVE THE PLAYERS TO DO SO. THE QUESTION OF COURSE IS NOT IF I KNOW IT OR NOT BUT RATHER IF THE BOK PLAYERS DO. AND FOR THOSE WHO WILL ALLOW THEMSELVES TO GO DEEPER INTO THE RABIT HOLE HEAR ME WHEN I SAY THAT IF THE BOKS PLAY FOR 80 MINUTES LIKE THEY PLAYED THAT BRILLIANT FIRST 40 MINUTES IN THAT ONE GAME AGAINST ENGLAND THEN THE BOKS WILL NOT ONLY WIN IN DUNEDIN BUT ACTUALLY HAMMER THE ALL BLACKS BY MORE POINTS THAN THE ALL BLACKS PUT OVER AUSTRALIA TODAY EVEN IF THE ALL BLACKS ARE AT THEIR BEST. TRUST ME. AND, NEVER TRUST SOMEONE THAT SAYS TRUST ME… UNLESS IT’S ME OF COURSE LOL. MORE OF WHAT WE SAW DURING THE SUPPER15 ALSO TELLS US THAT THE BOKS WILL HAVE A MUCH EASIER OPPORTUNITY TO BEAT THE ALL BLACKS NOW AS SONNY BILL WILLIAMS PLAYED HIS LAST GAME FOR THE ALL BLACKS FOR QUITE A WHILE TODAY. THE ONES READING THIS HAVING NO ISSUES WITH PUTTING THE EGO ASIDE WILL AGREE THAT SONNY BILL WILLIAMS IS NOTHING SHORT OF A SUPER STAR. HE IS A ONE IN A LIFETIME PLAYER THAT NO OTHER TEAM CAN MATCH AT THE MOMENT. BUT, AND THIS IS A BIG BUT, HE IS ONLY ONE PLAYER AND A COLLECTIVE TEAM IS OBVIOUSLY ALWAYS BETTER. HAVING SAID THAT THE ALL BLACKS ARE A MUCH WEAKER TEAM WITHOUT HIM PLAYING. MOST OF THE CURRENT ALL BLACK BRILLIANT STATEGY WITH REGARDS SCORING TRIES IS BASED ON SONNY BILL WILLIAMS BRILLIANCE WITH (AND WITHOUT) THE BALL FROM OFF LOADING CREATING EASY TRIES OR ACTING AS A DECOY TO DRAW 2 OR 3 DEFENDERS CREATING TRIES ON THE OUTSIDE AS WAS THE CASE IN THE FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH THE AUSSIES WHICH THE AUSSIES SADLY FELL FOR ON BOTH OCCASIONS IN THE FIRST GAME.

THE PROBLEM FOR THE BOKS NOT WINNING ENOUGH IN NEW ZEALAND, AND EVEN WHEN REACHING FULL POTENTIAL… HAMMERING THE ALL BLACKS IN NEW ZEALAND OVER MANY YEARS HAS NOT BEEN A CASE OF SKILL, FORM, OR QUALITY. THEY HAVE HAD MORE THAN ENOUGH OF THAT. THEY HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM FOR MANY YEARS, AND NOBODY IN THE CURRENT OR PREVIOUS COACHING STAFF HAVE REALISED WHAT EXACTLY THAT PROBLEM WAS AND MORE IMPORTANTLY… HOW TO FIX IT. THE PROBLEM FIRST OF ALL IS A HUGE ONE THAT LIES BETWEEN THE EARS. THE PROBLEM IS IN THEIR HEADS, NOWHERE ELSE BUT BETWEEN THE EARS.

SO, HOW DO THEY FIX IT, HERE’S HOW. INSTEAD OF SPENDING 90% OF THE BOKS TIME COACHING TEAM SKILLS, GAME PLAN OR STRATEGY RATHER TURN THAT AROUND INITIALLY AND SPEND THAT TIME FIXING THE INCORRECT FIRST FEARFUL THOUGHT WHICH IS THAT IT’S HARD WINNING IN NEW ZEALAND. REPLACE THAT INCORRECT THOUGHT WITH THE CORRECT ONE WHICH IS KNOWING THAT WITH THE CURRENT PLAYERS WE HAVE IN SOUTH AFRICA IT’S ACTUALLY HARD TO LOSE IN NEW ZEALAND. AND ONCE EVERY PLAYER KNOWS THIS ADD ANOTHER WHICH IS WITH THE CURRENT PLAYERS WE HAVE IT’S ACTUALLY HARD NOT TO HAMMER THE ALL BLACKS IN NEW ZEALAND AND EVEN HARDER NOT TO DO SO AT HOME. ISN’T THIS WHAT EVERY SPRINGBOK PLAYER SHOULD KNOW? AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT REALISES THE PROBLEM HERE… BEING IN THEIR HEADS? WHY HAVE NOBODY FIXED THIS PROBLEM? WELL IT’S TIME WE DO. FOR THE SAKE OF SPRINGBOK RUGBY GET THE RIGHT HEAD DOCTOR IN, USE MOST THE TIME TO WORK WITH THEIR HEADS NOT THEIR SKILLS, GAME PLAN OR OTHER. OTHERWISE THE SAME WILL HAPPEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THE SPRINGBOK RESULTS WILL FOLLOW THE SAME PATTERN AS YEARS GONE BY AND LEGEND AFTER LEGEND WILL COME AND GO WITH THE BOKS CONTINUED FAILING TO DELIVER WHAT I KNOW THEY REALLY CAPABLE OF. WE SAW IT IN THE FIRST 40 MINUTES IN THE ONE GAME AGAINST ENGLAND AND WE CAN SEE IT AGAIN. THE QUESTION IS WILL WE?

SO HOW DO I GET THE BOKS TO BELIEVE WHAT I ALREADY KNOW? QUITE OBVIOUSLY THERE IS NO WAY I CAN MAKE THEM REALISE WHAT I ALREADY KNOW, BUT I CAN ALWAYS HOPE SOMEONE IN THE CURRENT COACHING STAFF REALISES IT, AS I DO AND ACTUALLY FOCUS THEIR ATTENTION AND TIME TO FIRST FIXING THIS PROBLEM WHICH IS A INCORRECT THOUGHT IN THEIR HEADS BEFORE FOCUSSING ON THE CURRENT THINGS BEING STRATEGY, SKILLS ETC.

I CAN ONLY HOPE SOMEONE CLOSELY INVOLVED WITH THE BOKS WILL OPEN THEIR EYES AND SEE THE LIGHT.

FOREVER HOPING…
