Thats excellent. Hope Cape Town can close that gap. Rose-tinted glasses from me, a Munster supporter. I love having the Saffers in the URC, it's been transformational for the league. There are issues around knock out games and finals in the Investec Cup but the obvious solution is to follow the URC...

After watching Chasing the sun I'll give credit to Rassie and his coaching team for beating France. It was planned in detail like they always do. There was no lucky ran away tries. Even the charge down kick was planned by Kolbey. Vermeulen asked Rassie to stop playing the French anthem at practice o...

This... even including 2019 in that... I was pleased for them.. I think it's Rassie that has changed the sentiment... or rather kick started it? So the Bok fans made you regret this? Vok, do you know how many kant supporters the All Blacks and Wallabies have? Grow a spine. See pre 2019 you'd never ...

I think, regardless of sickness, everyone (including AB supporters) were very happy that the Boks won in 1995 Sadly, in the years since, some Bok ‘fans’ have done their best to make us regret that sentiment.

On paper, it’s the France game in Paris. France’s record against the SH under Galthie and co. Was actually really good. I don’t think they had lost to a SH side in about 2 years, and even that was a weird result against the Aussies. They obviously went into the tournament joint favourites, were ran...

Eh? It's the global leader in schoolboy sport. No.1 in every country AFAIK.

Can see Felix Jones work with England and Nienaber work with Leinster already.

That's why Rassie need to move on from the current Bok blueprint.

Stormers will invest heavily in their own schoolboy structures going forward. Dobson aim to keep at least the 10 best local schoolboy talent in the Stormers catchment area yearly.
