Comments on: Boks will win well http://keo.co.za/2012/09/28/boks-will-win-well/ An independent look at South African rugby Fri, 24 May 2013 01:48:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: neilster2012 http://keo.co.za/2012/09/28/boks-will-win-well/#comment-2242120 neilster2012 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 19:51:35 +0000 http://keo.co.za/?p=108716#comment-2242120 “…those who claim Meyer has a Bulls bias. That is absolute trash and Meyer cannot be accused of giving Bulls players preferential treatment. It is his right as coach to rate one player ahead of another.
He also remains committed to flyhalf Morné Steyn, but that is not a Bulls thing but a mentoring issue, in that Meyer pretty much shaped Steyn’s provincial and Super Rugby career, believes in the ability of the player and has backed him without fail”
I find this selective journalism incredible, how is the above not giving preferential treatment?
You are effectively trying to coach a player back into form on the highest stage, a player whose form didn’t warrant selection in the first place!
“Bias is an inclination to present or hold a partial perspective at the expense of (possibly equally valid) alternatives. Anything biased generally is one-sided, and therefore lacks a neutral point of view”
It is what it is!

You know, the English part of the Anthem…

Goes something like this, “sounds the call to come together…”

I reckon the Boks may have forgotten that part… Except Lambie and Beast, of course….

Got my Green and Gold jersey just in case…

“Once a jolly swagman….”

Gold Coast Gold that is…

These Wobblies visiting the Blou Ballas Cathedral are a good side.

They are under the cosh and are underdogs for this match…

Boks are thought of as favourites especially in the wake of Golden Goosen euphoria…

Not a good thing having Boks as overwhelming favourites and at the same time Ozzies as underdogs without a hope in hell…

Not a good thing at all…

This will either be King Heynekes Russian Front or his Blitzkrieg rebirth…

I have a sneaking suspicion it may be the former.

It builds international depth.” Hey Keo sounds like something I said way back.

The idea of resting players at the end of the year is a great one. Morne is on top of that list.

I agree about player selection, only the kids here and the irrational few think some provinces are choosen over others. Ludicrous to even think that way.

Back to the beginning of compo, How the boks perform tomorrow depends if they pitch up but this time its how many as the backline were asleep a fortnight ago and the forwards were on fire. Win / loose/big win –> all depends on…

I suppose he might get one right one day. I have had more success at the TAB by not listening to his predictions.
