    @Snowy Certainly no Ben Tamiefunas among them. Commentary reckoned he weighs in at 150kgs and apparently it's right.

    Really interesting, backs up what a few of us have been arguing for a while. Also, looks like they've figured out how to use Barrett:

    IIRC from the match we started with a bigger pack anyway? So where does all of the BIG SA stuff come from?

    Almost like a myth (I miss the myth, great player) or even an Aura.

    I can't remember... who was The Myth?

    No. Genuine question due to old age.

    Thanks 🙂

    @booboo Some Wallaby prop (Blades, maybe) called him that. It stuck.

    Mr Booboo the nurse will take you in for your colonoscopy now.

    @taniwharugby that's just stupid. If you compare the individual players weight on official stats the Boks are heavier than the ABs man for almost. So when it's added up.thr ABs have the heavier pack? Really 🤔

    @Rebound That is what was shown during the match. ABs heavier.

    Believe what you like I guess (official stats), but probably not a lot in it either way.

    @Rebound talk to the stats people, not me.

    Still, the myth of the giant Bokke packs has largely gone the way of French flair.

    Just imagine if we played Hayman at no8, how big our pack would be.

    The good old days? - Found on Redit - 'Kiwis have always been give preferential treatment from referees'
    06e0ae8c-27c5-4259-9e92-8847f9aab692-image.png
    Translation: "The double standards applied by referees when the Boks play New Zealand is not a new occurance. It's been happening for years.

    Here is a classic example where Chris Laidlaw bites Frik du Preez' hand but the incident was ignored by the referee"

    @Daffy-Jaffy That is still funny - and I have seen it about 20 times before.
