Still probably one of the cleaner Springboks around these days.

It's probably already been posted here but Commonwealth Games should just be hosted in the same city every 4 years, probably London makes the most sense. Clearly no appetite anywhere else to host it. Same goes for the Olympics. Might be a bit more complicated with politics etc but one city from each...

Don't drink any water that's not bottled. Don't eat anything that's not cooked in the hotel restaurant. Don't eat fruit. Don't take ice with anything. Wash your teeth with bottled water. Keep your mouth very firmly shut in the shower. Check whether you require malaria shots. Bring prescription stre...

The fact that you think the army of a democracy targeting terrorists and their infrastructure is the equivalent of Hamas killing and raping kids at a music contest, says all I need to know about you Goodbye :lol: you'd lap up any old bowl of diarrhoea wouldn't you... Mate, we're long passed that. E...

Isn't there a conspiracy theorist thread where all the loonies can jerk each other off without trying to indoctrinate everyone else? They don't realise that all these crazy conspiracy theories are actually put out there by the government to keep them occupied so they don't notice what's really goin...

Not exactly bang on the coast but Kampot in Cambodia is close enough. Cheap as chips and very easy going, far less developed than a lot of the ‘hot’ spots in the region. Good place to base yourself to check out the Cambodian islands before they’re all turned in to wannabe Phukets in the next few yea...

You've always hated the Crusaders. And you've always argued in favour of your beloved Ian Foster. Like Enz, you've tried to be clever and play both sides of the argument whenever his value has been questioned, but everyone knows you're a Foster fan. Are you seriously trying to pretend otherwise? Bt...

So those calling for a lifetime ban, would that include coaching? Should still be able to coach (or ref), but not play imo. Assfly, what is your solution to this problem? Are you satisfied with the way things are going on this issue in SA currently? I asked this question earlier on the thread to an...

A firm narrative of weed being harmless has been argued by many of those seeking legalisation . The truth is that for a small minority it most definitely is not . I don’t want it sold at the corner dairy , however it should be decriminalised and you should be able to grow it yourself and to a degre...

For alot of people it is harmless but those with a history of schizophrenia in the family it is very harmful. Evidence? Of the factual kind. Shall I ask my other ? Would you even read it ? Months sometimes years of progress can be undone with just a decent toke for some . Admittedly these poor bugg...

Nah can’t agree with that. Class A should remain illegal. Call me conservative on that front. They all cause harm. No one is arguing that they don't, but continuing with the approach we have been is clearly not working and it's getting worse and worse every year. We aren't going to be implementing ...

It’s a straight ideological policy from ACT. Their youth wing wants even Class A drugs like meth to be legalised if I remember correctly. Free market & free choice etc. And they say the Greens are loons…. :roll: All drugs should be legalised and regulated. In fifty years the govt will be selling cr...

I haven't heard the official rationale behind the policy change pertaining to cigarettes. However, all of the public health stats that I've seen tells me that it makes more economical sense for the population not to smoke cigarettes. I can only assume the policy change is due more to a liberal phil...

These bans are SFA deterrent. Not considering how competitive a market Saffer rugby is, and the relative economic benefits to be gained by having a pro career versus average industrial wage. Saffer underage rugby has a major problem, and if they won't clean it up, then it should be made clear that ...

If this is going on with players from Greys @ Craven week then you can assume it is a problem at the schoolboy level. If anyone knows what is not allowed it would be those folks. Do they still only do spot testing at Craven or is it now every player? Haven't seen any news yet from this years comp. ...

So you are pissed off and they are not. Sounds like a you problem. Who actually gives a fudge and why?
Why test at all then? Just throw the gloves off and be done with it.
Who tested and caught these dopers?

Nothing to see here boets.

naki111

The South Africans I've played with over the years have been by far the biggest dopers of any nationality I've come across. Every second guy is basically a Johnny Bravo lookalike and they are open about it. They are not ashamed at all. It definitely appears to be a cultural problem and this is refl...

Isn't the OP's point that he is being welcomed back as a hero rather than a villain? This is it. The que sera sera attitude from SARU and a lot of their fans is really disappointing. They don't seem to care about the wider implications for the game or the state of things in their own backyard. FWIW...

It’s comforting to see Australian rugby fans flat out deny the actual issue, racism in elite schools. Its all RL's fault and the solution appears to be throw more money at rural players in the form of scholarships. But they haven’t read what Kalyan’s mum said. She’s not sending him to a private sch...

Have to say I agree with D'Arcy on this. It's evident South African rugby has a doping problem at all levels of the game. I believe in second chances, but this was a golden opportunity for the SARU to put their foot down and say 'enough is enough', to send a message to those thinking of cheating the...

Have they found WMDs under than hospital yet or what? Not been following super closely. Big tunnel with metal door at the end. Too scared to go through the door. Apparently. It's been about a week since they stormed in? Call me skeptical, but I think if the IDF had found anything significant they'd...

When are RC dates normally announced? Early next year or? Probably around March time I think. If you look back at 2022 RC, that will give you a good indication of the likely dates or which week the games will take place. There is only a short window of when it can start to when it can finish with r...

So are you saying you would prefer Winnie and Dave to have their way, no matter how ridiculous that may be, just so they can make a deal, regardless of what that means for the country I’d like for them to sort things out so we can have a govt that can do the best for NZers. Unlike yourself, Eug, Bo...

Imo the best thing National and Luxon can do is be staunch on their bottom line. I'd they have to force another election so be it . I think National would govern alone if voters ate forced back to the polls. If another election is called because Luxon can't negotiate with Seymour and Winston, all b...

One team wasn't doing shit until Oct 7th showed up and the Palestinian boys went on a rampage. The idea that response has to be proportionate is bullshit . Who the fck ever came up with that one?

The 'Hamas nerve center is under the hospital' line has WMDs in Iraq vibes about it. We've all heard the 'slam dunk intelligence' line before.

This question directed more at the strategic voters in here, but with the benefit of hindsight, would anyone have changed their vote given what we know now? Quite a few very close electorate races and TOP turning out to be a nothing contender again perhaps might make a few question their choices?

There's way too much rugby, fans are not engaging anywhere near the levels that they used to and this is what they come up with :? . People want local derbies they can identify with, not these artificial ones cooked up in board rooms. I can't speak for NH but can't see Kiwi or Aussie fans giving two...

Why aren't the Australian franchises after Lincoln McClutchie, Alex Hartford or Josh Jacomb given no NZ franchise want them and they are arguably as good as or better than alot of the NZ 10s who got contracts.

+1 A few Kiwis not covering themselves with glory the last couple of days. Calling in to question the nature of the game, ref, etc. it’s something you expect from the Irish or the saffas.

So. The Boks are the World Champions of the game we all love. Their name is on the trophy and that will always be so. However, when it comes to the way they play the game, they play the dullest, least inspiring and most turgid version of the game. The beat the opposition by strangling the life out ...
