Little real advantage.
You can get all that stuff on video anyways .
He’s a talent but a mercurial one who hadn’t actually achieved much as coach in NZ.
If it were Wayne Smith involved with the Bokke I’d be far more anxious .
There’s no chance of that however .

Re: Israel declares state of war
14 year olds being 'punished' for throwing stones or just being in an area where stones are thrown doesn't really equate to them being criminals in my book. If a 14 year old and his mates when to any town or city centre in the Uk and started throwing stones at people they would be arrested and may ...
