Taute’s groin torture
26 Feb 2013
Jaco Taute won’t play for the Stormers against the Sharks because of injury.
Taute took a heavy blow to the groin in the 25-17 defeat against the Bulls and is in hospital for observation after passing blood in his urine.
Stormers coach Allister Coetzee confirmed the Lions import has already been ruled out of the visit to Durban but there is less certainty as to the seriousness of the blow.
Joe Pietersen is expected to start at fullback and he may also be given the goalkicking duties to allow Elton Jantjies to settle at flyhalf and concentrate on his all-round tactical game.
Prop Pat Cilliers, who left the field with concussion, did not train but the management are confident he will be cleared for selection. Midfielder Juan de Jongh ran with the squad on Monday but a decision on his availability will only be made following Tuesday’s practise.

@nama1-295: No excuses… I am laying out the facts… You and all the other “kenners” have highlighted how the WP U21 or B team beat the Sharks at Dirtbin stadium just last year…
Now the main Stormers team comes to town ready to fark up the Sharks without those players… What farken hope have the Black and White got at all…
I mean the only difference other than the missing players above is Franco… and surely he cant make that much of a difference that Sharks are suddenly favourites…
Fark, I am saying the Stormers are going to roll the Sharks according to recent history… What more do you want? Farkit you spitting Breezers are never happy, eh…

@paalkat-299: Dry your legs, wench… Nothing will convince me that the Mercenary Sharkshits will beat Gods Gift to Rugby – the Stormers on Saturday….
Unless those Mercenary Money grubbers actually do against all odds, of course…
Maybe the only hope the Dirtbin Dyanmite has is that the Ref is fully on their side… But even then, hope is faint…

@Heavens Game-301:
You try to hard HG.
Maybe you should be a little bit more subtle in your efforts to make the Sharks the underdogs.
Last year is history, Saturday is still a mystery but going by both teams last matches, the Sharks must be overwhelming favorites. No doubt about that. We’ll be happy to come away with a bonus point…or two.
Wear the favorite tag proudly.

@Heavens Game-298:
So ZimBob SafariPant, you insist the country to the north of South Africa be addressed as “Rhodesia” do you? This from the person who claims a ‘real Africans’? An interesting, if somewhat paradoxical, perspective.
I don’t believe I used that word. As a real African I prefer to call an African country by its real African name as used by its real African citizens.

The green, green grass of Kings Park will be polluted red with the body bits of Stormers players bludgeoned into defeat by a rampant Super Sharks 15.

@nama1-304: Not trying hard at all… Just the truth…
And why is the truth so hard to take for the reigning Conference Title Holders and CC Champs?
26 Feb 2013, 15:54 pm
@BudYza-305: Being a “real” African… Was that truly the point you were trying to make?
Come now, Gukahurundi Girly… Lets not fib here, tell this aryan colonial what you really think
26 Feb 2013, 15:54 pm
Sharks are the favourites.
Defo.

The event Mugabe only recently again claimed was not genocide, but “madness”.

Where is that fake Transformer. I want to know from him why Puke’s dad is so ashamed of his lily white players.
“The Kings have recently come under fire for not picking enough players of colour, with Watson admitting they’re ashamed of the current racial demographics of the squad.”
26 Feb 2013, 16:12 pm
have the other guppys on here turned to toadying “ja broers”?
are there no other voices in guppyland except for the froth that engulfs this thread?
come on brave guppys, let your voices heard above the screeching

Kings ashamed of ‘white’ squad

Cape Town – Kings president Cheeky Watson says the South African Rugby Union’s (SARU) constant postponement of the decision to award them Super Rugby status in 2013 led to a number of top black players opting against turning out for the Port Elizabeth-based side.
SARU’s decision to allow the Kings into Super Rugby was only finalised in August last year – mere months before the start of this year’s tournament.
According to Die Burger, Watson made the statement in parliament to members of the portfolio committee on sport and recreation, insisting several top black players decided to sign for other unions as they weren’t sure the Kings would play in the Southern Hemisphere’s premier competition.
The Kings have recently come under fire for not picking enough players of colour, with Watson admitting they’re ashamed of the current racial demographics of the squad. He said he will make it his mission to correct the matter.
Watson said the Kings were denied luring players such as Elton Jantjies (Stormers), Odwa Ndungane (Sharks), Lwazi Mvovo (Sharks), Lionel Mapoe (Bulls), Akona Ndungane (Bulls) and Siya Kolisi (Stormers) to Port Elizabeth.
He also said the franchise lost an investment partner because SARU only assured them of one season in Super Rugby, and not three like previously promised.
The Kings opened their Super Rugby campaign with a 22-10 victory over the Force in Port Elizabeth last weekend, to take a shock early lead in the South African Conference log.
The Kings will have a bye this weekend, before hosting the Sharks on Saturday, March 9.

@Heavens Game-85: Sorry.You did include them.
26 Feb 2013, 16:37 pm
Watson still doesn’t get it: luring black players away from other established unions to play for his lucky packet team would not contribute to “transformation” – though it might, at least in the eyes of the simple-minded, make him look less like the dirty, money-grabbing hypocrite that he is.

26 Feb 2013, 15:24 pm @BudYza-290: ZimBob? You mean Rhodesian surely… Of course the Rhodesian label is always the last refuge of the liberal freedom fighter or the little Xhosa umfanawami who does not agree with the sentiments of the aryan colonial… But then again it could just be the Makwerekwere element that is turning you on… No, Budza…? (Now that’s a nice Mashona word like Gukurahundi)
See now?

@Heavens Game-308:
Please accept my apologies for the late reply, ZimBob SafariPant. I was delayed by more urgent matters.
I am only doing my best to understand the paradox that you are, Salamander of Propaganda. Let me see if I understand you, as difficult as that may be.
You are the Jimmy Kruger of ButWhoStandsWhere and you ordain what and where Africa is and who and who are not real Africans. And given your omnipotence, you have declared, and repeated thousands of times, my dear, that Cape Town is not the real Africa and Captonians are not real Africans.
But when black independence was won in Zimbabwe you fled to white South Africa. Then when black independence was won in South Africa you fled to your white Motherland and her United Kingdom from where you poured scorn on all Africa and Africans.
Then you were declared an undesirable alien in that Kingdom and came back to South Africa with your pink feather boa clutched between your legs because no other country would have you. And now you’re pretending to be an enLightened African and demonstrate your powerful CapeCrusading tendencies by Unilaterally Declaring the Secession of Cape Town from the continent?
I must repeat ZimBob SafariPant that yours is an interesting but definitely paradoxical perspective.
Keo bloggers are fortunate to be in your company. There is so much to learn from such a Wise Seer while sitting at the feet of the Master gazing up in loving wonderment like the little ignorant children we all are in your presence.
Thank you. Thank you. And thank you again.
Neat little laughyface BTW.

Hi Rye
The majority of Stormer supporters concede that the Sharks should be too good this Saturday.
Only HG doesn’t seem to want to see or accept it.

Good luck to your side for Saturday.
I think you are going to very placed by the time you go on tour.
But, getting a nice draw is only on paper, it’s up to the players to capitalize on it, but I think this year they will.
