ummmm......that was the AB fans on here mate.
We have been shit - by our standards. Of the last 119 years the last 7 or so have been awful.
Should have beaten the Lions in 2017, and that was where the wheels really fell off. Hansen intended to retire at that point and in hindsight it would have been a good call.
Started in Chicago 2016.

Who could have predicted this turn of events?
Tbh, if they were playing silly buggers they would have made this announcement on Friday.
It seems above board give they selection protocols

Buckle yourselves in fellas

Will be interesting to see if post McDonalds departure there are some bold(er) selections going forward.
Barrett to 10
Somehow I don't see Leon as the reason Barrett hasn't been at 10.
Leon was a gigantic fan of Barrett at 10 for the Blues. In 2023 he wouldn't even contemplate trying to move Barrett from 10 despite middling returns

@Lancaster-Park Frans has been around the block a few times. @BartMan use to talk about red wine. The Stormers scrum has always been good. Nortje has been part of a Bulls URC dominant scrum behind Wilco Louw. Boks practice live scrums, Ox possibly the best LH fatty to practise against.

All Blacks: ‘There’s something different about playing against South Africa’
TJ Perenara and David Havili talk about the immense challenge this weekend at Ellis Park.

@pakman you mean lock behind the LH? He is more an aerial type like Matfield. PSdT & BJD will be a great combination in scrum and around the block. High work rate.

Dream come true for Dixon to face the All Blacks
Springbok flanker Ben-Jason Dixon described the opportunity to face the All Blacks on Saturday as "a dream come true" and he said he was relishing every moment of being part of the national set-up.

Etzebeth cleared for NZ Test as Boks release four players
Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth has been cleared to face New Zealand at Emirates Airline Park on Saturday after completing all the training sessions this week and has been drafted onto the replacements bench for the Castle Lager Rugby Championship encounter, while Rassie Erasmus has released four...
Looks like he is on the bench.

We are due a good game of rugby with the South Africans.
2023 Twickenham was dire and so was the WC final.
Two of the most mistake ridden , disjointed games of rugby I've seen involving the ABs. -
@BerniesCorner no you aren’t.

Two of the most mistake ridden , disjointed games of rugby I've seen involving the ABs.And the refereeing/tmo involvement was a thundering disgrace.
I will never have that match mentioned without saying it.
Im still fucking seething over it.

Which part did the tmo get involved in? I can't remember.
