Look at little halfback Tomas Cubelli, no rugby for 12 months, no worries https://i.ibb.co/vPRTGFM/gettyimages-1285584660.jpg free image hosting Where are the Bokke? Hiding? From what I've seen thus far, even our u21s wouldn't be scared...but perhaps you're referring to our schoolboy team? :smug:

Your team couldn't even bring themselves to turn up, I don't think you get to talk about the present.... Current RWC champs, current Rugby Championship champs and current B&I Lions series champs. It would be rude not to let someone else have a go at winning something....good luck for the TN mate. :...

On the flight to Australia Ledezma refused a stopover in South Africa because his players might become soft. You seem terribly excited for...

Could there be different levels in a province, for instance Cape Town level 4 and the Boland level 3? Crazy to do that! You’d have millions of cars streaming up the N1 to buy smokes and booze in Paarl. The goal must be to get as much of the economy back to work as fast as possible, so the drop in l...

In Port Alfred, which is many kilometers from anywhere there are multiple cases. I don't think that you are correct. Perhaps you meant Port St Johns.

The president to address the nation at 20:30. Seems like some easing of restrictions are on the way. Very little, if any. I expect some restrictions to be eased in areas with no/low infections.

28 days to detect antibodies. I'll take your word for it. However, I believe that the majority of the COVID-19 tests are using PCR, which detect the presence of an antigen, rather than the presence of the body’s immune response, or antibodies.

It is all good and well to say that there should not be a full lockdown, but how else do you suggest they slow down the spread?

Best Springbok team I've seen is the 2009 side. Far better than both 07 and 19. Post 1992 (readmission), there is an argument that the team from late '97 to late '98 was the best.

yeah, if you are suggesting the 1995 All Blacks then you really should do it properly and say 96/97. Yep, humilating the RWC holders in their own back yard 3-1 certainly ranks right up there with winning back to back RWC titles in my book. We were very disappointed with the losses in '96, but we di...
