@runningmann100 Awesome work!

A look into cheating allegations against the president and two members from Zwakala AC and the exemplary way with which the club handled the situation: runningmann.co.za/2026/05/04/two… #TTOM2026 #TTOM #twooceansmarathon #marathoncheats #marathoninvestigation

Every week this series reminds me that although Stormers fans may love rugby, they know desperately little about it.

Please @RassieRugby. Now I'm begging.

@mzeke_great @DummySwitchPod Okes were knocking on Bok doors and now they’re knocking the bench at Kings Park!

@DummySwitchPod It’s not like the cohort of guys who went to the team by the sea have reached the playing heights that they reached in JHB - to man actually

One argument that could be made 📍

@RyanCoetzee I wish we cared twice as much about u/19 + u/21 rugby because that’s where the talent (and not the 0.5%) is truly unearthed.

@RyanCoetzee Too many people put too much emphasis on schoolboy rugby. Yes, being an insane schoolboy can accelerate your career massively. However, for the 99.5% who it doesn’t, the playing field squares MASSIVELY after school.

The idea that elite rugby players should emerge equally from every school in SA is surprisingly common. But it’s not how things work because it’s impossible to scale the culture, coaching and facilities needed and, even more importantly, getting the top players to play with each other is key to developing excellence. That is why there are a small number of top medical schools, and business schools, and science departments, etc. Indeed within those disciplines there are concentrations of specialization. So, what needs to happen, and what does increasingly happen, is that the top junior school talent needs to be identified and brought into the elite rugby environments that, together, produce most of SA’s Boks. That still requires a massive grass roots effort at junior schools; and of course there will always be exceptions - kids from schools that aren’t big rugby schools and kids that get missed and picked up later in life. But as a system, centres of excellence are a proven way to generate elite performance in every field of human endeavor. Sport is no different.

Barriers are meant to be broken. #LondonMarathon

@Slipcatch Quan Horn should be top of the list. Never misses a week and is a baller of absolute note.

The MOST expensive URC rugby players in SA should be (from very expensive to expensive) - 1. Wilco Louw & Thomas du Toit (in transit) (the gainline starts at tighthead and they are the best in the World) 2. Ruan Nortje & JD Schickerling (Nr 5 locks and their endurance) 3. Handre Pollard, Chris Smith & Jurie Matthee (they are 86-90% goalkickers and they can ball and defend) 4. Damian Willemse, Sacha FM (their versatility & Rugby IQ is priceless)

Qoma back. Lions by 20,000,000

@Ben_Wisden Absolute road.

Jayden Seales has claimed the first seven wickets to fall in an innings for Trinidad & Tobago against Leeward Islands, but looks set to be denied the chance to take 10 with the game halted due to a dangerous pitch. The last ball before the suspension is not for the faint-hearted

My cousin Bruce was attacked in his home a few days ago and did not survive. He leaves behind his two children, Alex and Savannah. A fundraiser has been set up to support them. If you're able to contribute or share, it would mean a great deal. backabuddy.co.za/campaign/suppo…

There’s no sidestepping the BrahGate Bib Bandit scandal for former Stormer Morgan Newman. Wonder if this will make the sports news on Good Hope FM this evening? runningmann.co.za/2026/04/22/for… #BrahGate #TTOM #twooceansmarathon #morgannewman
