Probably never. We're a joke at world cups, especially Japan. That'll be a permanent embarrassment. I'm totally neutral in assessing the quality of the rest of it. Explain the boring winner? South Africa came from nowhere to win it, playing a kicking game through-out, but changing in the final to a...

It was a decent tournament, and I'm glad for Japan, but there's been plenty better,.

2003 and 2015 both blow it out of the water.

When will the Irish win a quarter final?

Sardy is a legendary poster. I formed the "brains trust" with him and Nipper, Nipper stormed out for reasons. Sardy remained in the programme. Sardy made crazy calls that paid off like backing AE. Nipper, without the "brains trust", unfortunately failed. Not surprising Sardy got the lockdown right,...

Ox posted that? I thought I was reading another of Sard’s moans about the lockdown.

Can't compare Ox to tards. Ox does not change his opinion every 5 minutes when his wife tells him to.

I'm not saying he's the best cricket player ever, but when AB walked out to bat, you got bums on seats and eyes on screens. He was not going to die wondering, the bowlers knew he was going to place the pressure back on them. Karen Zoid ask him about his popular in India. He open an Instragram accou...

Average at 50.66 in 114 games and 222 catches?

Do you recon an abusive husband/father would quit beating his wife/kids if he's not on the piss? I'm not a specialist but my understanding is that it's a behavioural thing. The grog probably enhances it but I don't think it's the cause. My wife had an abusive prick of a father and her first husband...

Rump is much more flavoursome than Fillet.

True, but sometimes it's lovely to braai a fillet and it's so soft it melts in your mouth. Good with a mushroom sauce.

Let's hope our players make sure they're fit before playing. These games will be high impact, saffer derbies are physical.

Nipper just hates his own people so much he cant help himself. He's constantly apologizing for the actions/thoughts/mentality/attitude of his countrymen. It seems the poor guy is experiencing his life on the internet, in the company of his compatriots, as one big embarrassment. Strange why he's sti...

Actually HM was not that bad during the last few years when the Bulls became so dominant, as i recall most of those seasons they tended to end top or close to the top in try scoring. But they did use their pack to deadly effect. Guys like Habana and even the centers like Olivier scored truckloads o...

Cashing in your pension and starting a new business in these times is extremely risky. I get supporting a fellow SA'n in trouble and egging (
