Can you tell us about its notes? £7.00 from the local Co-Op R150 is an expensive wine in SA, although not top end. I normally pay R40-R50 a bottle (around £2) The Eastern Cape has a local bottle store chain named Prestons. They have really good prices, at least R10 to R20 cheaper than Tops, Checker...

I'm sure you had a whale of a time but that's not a rugby memory

for me it's the RWC and Currie Cup final.

Great game to watch as a neutral. When I heard SA teams were joining the Champions Cup, these were the sort of matches I was looking forward to. This could turn out to be a very good rivalry. And kudos to Saracens for bucking the trend and sending a full strength team out. Pity the Bulls seemed to ...

Disappointed win by the Bulls. No bonus point playing against 14. Going to bite them. Still a better result than not winning. Very true. Travelling in business class will help them alot. Thought and hope they would beat Sarries with a lot at halftime. Those disallowed tries were unfortunate. What d...

I am coming to a firm conclusion that it is generally safe and sensible to ignore folk who start questions with 'So'. Too many such question are clearly not asked in good faith since the question owes sod-all to the words being responded to. To move from the general to the specific, you are now on ...

A reminder: what spurred this was Barnes disallowing a try to Aaron Smith consequent to the TMO finding a knock-on and bringing it to Barnes' attention.

I read that 100 trucks loaded with humanitarian aid has entered into Gaza.

Why are there still civilians in Gaza? Surely they should all have been evacuated out of the way of the advancing IDF?

Was the point of having an investor not to pump money into NZ rugby so that the best players can be kept on New Zealand?

You're actually the religious loon in a room full of atheists.
That analogy works too. Still hit me with your number one reason and I will pick holes in it.
It's cheating

Arguably the biggest cheat in rugby is celebrated as the Goat.

All this talk about Rassie backing him is ridiculous. He was asked a question and answered it.

Exactly. What was he supposed to say?
"What? That drug cheat, who has served his time? Play for the Boks again? Never!"

Did a 1/2 beef fillet on Sunday evening on the Weber.
Ate it with blue cheese. It was excellent.

It would be interesting to see the honest [ not the Ben Tune honest] PED testing schedules and results from the tier 1 nations.

Are we Saffers really so bad? Or do we test and release the results honestly? Like Shane warn when he got the water retention pills from his Mum.

Chilli, do you have a counter argument?

Go on, educate me. I'll bow to your innate Saffer experience/knowledge of such matters.
Your angry mind is obviously made up.
On PEDs in sport? Yup. Absolutely. Career ending.

It is not though. The man did what he did, served his punishment and is now free to ply his trade.

It's not a matter of rehabilitating, its a matter of bringing the game - and your country - into disrepute. I shouldn't expect a saffa to understand, i suppose.

The moral of the story is that drug cheats shouldn't be welcomed back to represent their country. Unless that country is morally decrepit and has a total lack of self respect.
