Re: Concerts/gigs you WISH you’d been to..
Radiohead , Glastonbury 2003 Yes, this was their peak imo. Bonnaroo in ‘06 probably the other contender but that was never realistic. There There to open that Glastonbury is my favourite live performance, have watched that a thousand odd times. Have to Look that up on YT, my favorite Song of them

Re: Overcoming lack of size in International Rugby.
Kwagga coming on at 55min against tiring opposition was the most potent weapon the Boks had at the RWC. He was absolutely unplayable.

Re: Official Springboks thread
Weren‘t the Boks supposed to play Ireland again in the EOYTs?! Would make it a Grand Slam tour. The test windows in July and November are each just 3 weekends, so only 3 tests can be played. As a result it's unlikely that we'll get another Grand Slam opportunity anytime soon. The first test against...

Re: Chasing the Sun 2
So many good quotes, especially for Nienaber's speech. "You're just a f**king obstacle to hop over for them" "fudge you, we'll write our own script" And Rassie's speech at the end was unbelievable moving. That one minute carried more weight than any political party speech I've seen in SA in years. ...

Re: Favourite Rugby Commentator
Hugh Bladen. Not so much in his later years when he became quite clumsy though. But he was the enigmatic voice of South African rugby for many years. Bladen, for sure. Legendary. THE Voice of SA Rugby. Grant Nisbitt for NZ. He’s horrific. Yes he is. I rather meant he is the voice of nz Rugby

Absolutely, quite surprised how vital he seemed to be. He really is a big loss.

I remember that, that they only announced shortly prior to the fixture. Jacques also mentiones, that the constant changing of the squad also makes them less predicable and harder to analyze, which is exactly what they intend by that
