Perhaps because they would have more seen it as a sign of mockery as they had absolutely no chance to make the RWC final contrary to SA? Some people have really huge problems of understanding it seems....or more probably they are only trolling in order to have a go at Irish Bizarre lack of understa...

Also like the look of Siya Masuku at the Cheetahs Great eye MZ. You spotted him early. Completely flew under my radar, but admittedly, I haven't watched any Cheetahs games in ages. Not really - he played all over the show with little success. It was in his time at the Cheetahs that his game improve...

Odd for a team that says it 'out of respect to the other team', it doesn't seem to have been mentioned to Tonga or Romania....

Masuku really is the find of the season for the $harks. That was his 4th MOTM award in a row. Great performances and huge BMT shown. And to think he's been riding the pine behing Bosch for how long now? Great prospect and hope he gets a Bok camp invite. Janeewat Also like the look of Siya Masuku at...

I refuse to be gaslit by the Irish and Mr [one of my best friends is a Saffa] Bungle

Monk Zombie

Ok. If so, why say it at all? For a truly arrogant team bigging themselves up straight after beating a major rival it's a fairly odd, obscure way to twist the knife. We could all think of less flattering ones I'm sure. As has been said many times already they are not bigging themselves up. It appea...

Sketchy at the breakdown and missed a good couple of blatant fwd passes- but that's standard Raynal to be fair, he doesn't ruin a game.

Sharks with all their WC boks are masters of winning-by-1-point Clermont's kicker won it for the Sharks Clermont poor discipline in the first half that gave 18pts to the Sharks. The Shark pack taking over the proceedings from the 55th minute. And then that kick. It is harsh to blame the kicker for ...

The ABs 2011 - 2015 didn’t win 70% between world cups akin to Foster’s All Blacks. Boks should aim higher. They pretend their players are amongst the Jordan’s and Messi’s of world sport, but they just aren’t consistently good enough. But yes, Soc Med is awash with Saffer circle jerks. There’s tens ...

Thought he had a steady game.

The reason it was close was we didn't nail our kicks

Saints couldn't catch a ball in the first half

Mr. Raynal did well yesterday.

Clermont pack faded badly in that last quarter and that was the game

Saffas surrendered and took the draw :lol: Shameful! Junior Blacks dominated possession and territory but couldn’t convert it into points and almost lost the match. Still, it was a nice tough hitout against saffa behemoths in terrible conditions. The conditions were actually good practice for the w...

this faux modesty is hilarious

We say it to each other from underage in all sports, as teams and individuals alike that we respect highly. It's a cultural thing, to wish that you AND your opponent meet again, hopefully in the final. It's not hard to grasp, should be even easier when explained. Some lads simply psychologically do...

Good summary. Two options:

1. Actually interpreted that as arrogance due to being dim

2. Brainwashed by Rassie to have a chip on his shoulder

Knowing South African players, he's probably involved somewhere too.

Some truly bizarre Dutch surnames

My Favourites include Fokkerot [Fvck-a-Rat]

Niemand [Nobody] - which is common in South Africa - makes much more sense when you understand how it came about

Fortunately these incidents are exceptional in the game.

Generally the larger and meaner rugby players get the nicer people they are. Even Bakkies.

Ja - Munster’s tactics were spot on and executed well. They sat back and played the percentages beautifully. Cerebral stuff really. Crowley was central to the win and obviously enjoyed kicking on the highveldt. I thought I saw him smile at the distance he got on one his touchfinders. :lol: As for al...

Full marks for Rowntree with the rope-a-dope tactics. The Lions soon were well behind without Munster playing any rugby.
