reimagining of the laws
Unfortunately that is what you get with Faeces. Completely random and frustrating as a fan. He seems to view them as guidelines open to "interpretation" - even the ones that are really quite clear.
Not going to validate that pathetic video, too stupid for words.

@MajorRage is this what the game has come to? Pedantic reimagining of the laws to justify that your team gets beaten? FFS, people, the players are better than this, lift your game.
ALso, GAGR did it better with circles and arrows
To be honest, this one is so bad I feel you are disrespecting the GAGR one by even mentioning it in the same post!

@MajorRage whatโs really funny was all the ball and field position the Boks had in the first 20 minutes , and their game plan consisted of bashing into contact...
Itโs all very well to highlight decisions that donโt go your way..but if you look inwardly.
Ask themselves this question..what could we have done better when we had ball in hand...?,itโs was only when you were down 3-17 that you managed to get some ball in the hands of Cheslin Kolbe..
They probably had the most dangerous back on the paddock ,but in the first 20 minutes you reverted to Type..
I think they need to Take a bit of responsibility and look at your own teams performance. -

I think they need to Take a bit of responsibility and look at your own teams performance.SA, along with a number of other teams, play old style rugby. Why should they not try to expand their gameplan? I know they tried it a few years ago and gave it away when there was a coaching change. My basic understanding is that at CC level they play much more open, and the Lions Stormers and Sharks certainly try to play open at times. They shouldn't forget that back in the day we were the major exponents of 10 man rugby and at one time Wales led the way with running rugby. Perhaps their fans should ask why they persist with anti-rugby when they should be capable of much more?

Anti-rugby? What a load of rubbish. Ten-man rugby is a perfectly valid style of rugby.

Agree, there are many ways to win a rugby game. I'd be perfectly happy for the All Blacks to play 10 man rugby if it resulted in success.

@DMX more speed across the park is where I think they want it. Good set defences are hard to break, but if teams are going to kick to us (even shallow kicks) then quickness is what will diffuse it.
Even if itโs a so called grind, we still have the defensive game and what limited opportunities there are we will have the team to take them.
-
To be fair, for the Boks itโs 9-man rugby given Faf does a lot of the kicking from the base and Pollard less so ๐

But I'm happy that we are a little more progressive than that

Is that a George Bridge reference?

That last paragraph is a thing of beauty!
In spite of the spelling mistake? Or because of it?
Definitely and maybe only because of it!
Think of it like a shit that has the wind to come across the rear port quarter
