I think he needs to play for a big boy team for a season then let's see.

I'm not sure about that.
The chances of Fassi and Willemse remaining injury-free all year are slim.

The Senegalese number 5 was an absolute monster.
Although it must be said, he walked around for most of the 2nd half.

assfly

Another mixed bag of a team.
I expect a win but another frustrating one.

What is up with Kolisi's injury?

Namibia run away with in the end against Sengal.

Algeria beat Ivory Coast.

Semi finals should be interesting.

Zimbabwe 43 - 8 Morocco. Close in the first half during the rain, but Zim ran away with it in the second. Ian Prior is the standout player. With him at 10 we look good. Our loosies and back three looked great when the sun came out and the game opened up. I hope this match isn't an indication of the ...

When was the last time we had Eben, Lood, RG and Sous in the same match squad? That's brutal

The Rugby Africa Cup kicks off next week in Uganda. Winner goes to the RWC. Namibia are the usual winners, but they don't look as strong as they usually do and their head coach just walked out. Got completely humped by Italy last week. I have little hopes for Kenya. The KRU is in a complete mess and...

I'm glad I'm not the only one amazed at the negativity on this thread. If it's not your thing, then just do something else with your time. Change channel. I mean they release the lineup months in advance, so why is everyone shocked? It looks like most of the people who were there had a good time, is...

Yes, totally out of his depth. Probably hungover from a week on the piss.

assfly

So it's the Boks' fault the Baabaas were utter shit?

You still need to catch the ball and make some tackles if you want to play the nostalgic running rugby the Baabaas haven't been able to replicate for 20 years.

I'm not normally a big fan of funk, but Nile Rodgers & Chic were fantastic. Incredible musicianship, vocals from the two backup singers and what a frontman. That's the thing I love about BBC's coverage of Glastonbury. Every year I end up being exposed to music I wouldn't normally listen to. Some I c...

The match is going to be a massive dud unfortunately. Field will be soggy, stadium will be empty (and not just because of the weather). Hopefully the last time they schedule a Bok match in Cape Town this time of the year. It's so stupid. Ja I hear people are a bit pissed with the price of tickets.

assfly

I like the Bok team. A mix of new and experienced.
It will probably lead to a frustrating game to watch, but hopefully not and both teams throw the ball around.

Wait until Rassie takes over our breakdancing team.

43rd position will be ours!

Three finals and three losses for the Bulls. For a team full of well-paid mercenaries, they should be doing much better.

It maybe just me looking from afar but cricket looks to be dying in SA. I looked at the twitter trends earlier and there was very little comment from Saffers and mostly it was Inds. Cricket will never die in SA. We have the same schoolboy structure for cricket as rugby. Its our main summer and wint...

Have you seen Marco Jansen? He looks like he needs a bloody good meal, nevermind some roids.

assfly

Decent start from SA. Makes me nervous though, seeing all these 4s.

assfly

Ja I think those tail-enders just took the game out of reach for SA. I think a lead of 200 would have made it a good fight, but I can't see them reaching that target on this pitch .

Close but no cigar.

Someone didn't have their mobile phone switched to flight mode. Despite being welcome to use Blu tooth.

And a slightly reclined seat.

Knock out rugby? Suppose Leinster/Glasgow dont play knock outs. Aimless dull kicking away of possession wont work against Leinster. It's 2025. The kicking game may be dull to you, but it is far from aimless. Having possession does not equate to winning. You should know that, we've won world cups be...

Wow are we still talking about this?

Crowley said he could still take the kick. It was the ref who stopped him.

assfly

He'd already been an ass after the first kick. The pattern indicated a deliberate attempt to put Crowley off. IMO, whether retrospective yellow or a note on his disciplinary record he shouldn't get away with it completely. If it was just the play acting and wink after the second kick you'd let it p...

A yellow card for a wink

Peter O'Mahoney must be glad he's retiring if that's where we're headed .

This woman’s accent is insane (purposefully so I’d imagine) but she does have a point

Ja that's quite funny. The accent is definitely put-on.

Facebook is not a representation of South African rugby fans. If you use that as your yardstick then the Irish aren't coming out any better.

The majority of level-headed fans see this as a non-event, despite the goading headlines of the press.

Add this incident to the ways SA teams have been manipulating rules around on-pitch/pitch-side health & safety provisions since before the 2019 RWC...standards set by Rassie 'the water boy' Erasmus from the top, if the rules have a point of weakness, they'll find them and milk them for every possib...

assfly

That's a bit harsh. OK we're not playing great rugby but finishing 3rd is quite something.

assfly

This is a Sharks team that is less than the sum of its parts, for unknown reasons.

Munster are exactly the team that could sneak a win here.

It will be close.

WR are learning, best news there- For the first time, the Men’s Rugby World Cup Draw will take place with all teams known.

That is just sad. Far too young. He had a serious heart condition, was the reason he wasnt picked for the boks anymore after it came out. His performances would have deserved so. Reinvented himself after switching from wing to centre. Ja I agree. He came back from the brink once, and fought his way...

Two outstanding games.

A reminder how far South African teams are from reaching this level.

Big weekend for the Saffas. After being nowhere near winning the series all year, they're about to win the Championship and be crowned the "champions" of this season. Complete rubbish format. The "champions" should be the ones who win the series through accumulated points. WR calls that the "league...
