@jimhamilton4 @AndyGoode10 So, in the duration of the 6 nations we have gone from "Eng are the best team" in the world to France being the team to beat next world cup. Should we just settle that currently there is no team remotely close to the Boks?

@AndyGoode10 Do you think you guys and not Borthwick is the problem? You take Pollock and make him out to be a world beater. Burger won world player of the year at 21. Pollock is a summarisation of the Eng team, game breakers without world breakers.

@patmccarry @MikeRoss03 @RugbyPass At last. Someone speaking truths. How about next we get rid of players like Lomu. Way too big to play wing against the smaller guys. OR, if you have a dominant lineout only allow 1 jumper? Or just 2 forwards over 7ft? When you are weak in an area you work on improving it!

“You can’t have one team with a really good scrum and try to legislate them out of it. How about you guys just get a bit better?”🗣️ Myself & former Ireland prop @MikeRoss03 hit the Scrum-Cave to revisit that Bok masterclass, in this @RugbyPass feature🇿🇦👉 rugbypass.com/plus/south-afr…

@offtheball 2/2. Do we change the rules when someone starts introducing freak athletes in the backline like lets say Lomu against guys like Kolbe? Or have the loose trio and locks all over 7ft tall that win each lineout including the oppositions? When you are weak in something you work on it

@offtheball 1/2. So tired of this “they are monsters”, “depower the scrum” BS. Bok pack weighed 12kg more!? Do we change the rules of the game because 1 team decided to emphasise that part of their game more? Why are Japan able to win their scrums agains the Boks? Cont…

@MichaelVaughan Is that your way of defending that horrendous comment you made that SA had an easy schedule that led to them winning the WTC and will be found out by travelling to Asia 3 times? Where hey currently have 3/4 wins? Or are you showing you knew how to play cricket but it ends there?

@EmilyMaher11084 I dont think its called “doing the best with the least” award. Then it should go to Argentina. Coach of the year is someone to me that takes a team to nr2 teams Country and puts 40 on them. Or goes to the home of the 6 nations champs and with 14 men comfortably beat them. 😊

English

Emily Maher@EmilyMaher11084·20 Kas

A lot of gnashing of SA teeth that Rassie didnt win this. I think Rassie is clearly the most innovative coach by a long way. But if you are looking at doing the most out of least resources, Joe Schmidt is the best for me 2025. Any coach would do well with SA huge players😄

@JoshSens @GOLF_com Blair Athol is currently ranked as the 2nd best course in the Country. Amazing place to play

English

Josh Sens@JoshSens·19 Kas

@odacovARotten @GOLF_com Personally, I think Fancourt is the best of those, design wise. Pinnacle Point spectacular views for sure. Leopard Creek an amazing experience. I have not seen Blair Athol. The fun for me is in the conversation. Thanks for being part of it.

@JoshSens @GOLF_com Fair enough. Pinnacle point? Fancourt Links? Blair Athol? Leopard Creek? The ones that jump to me off the bat.

@odacovARotten @GOLF_com I have. Which courses there would you say deserve inclusion? Royal Durban was on the list some years ago. Maybe a victim of shifting tastes or new courses nudging it out. One clarification: most panelists aren't writers. Varied professions. All well-traveled golf fanatics.

Stephen. We have a super rugby league and an amazing grass root rugby + a hp plan since 2010 helped by NZ SA and AU . Bernard Lapasset helped a lot those days also; we never forget people that have helped Argentina rugby… and clubs that helped us to have a career as well

Stephen Jones@stephenjones9

No-one ever lifted a finger to help Argentine rugby. Kicked out of Super Rugby. None of their players based at home. They must be exhausted. But they play great and stylish rugby. Sporting nobility.

@stephenjones9 Bit of an uneducated comment? 2010-2013 South Africa brought in a Pampas 15 to play in their domestic rugby competition. Majority of those players formed the base of the Jaguares in 2016 and went on to have great careers for Argentina. If thats not lifting a finger then what is?

@LeinsterRoyalty The question is valid as one will get insight into what he thinks. Your comment though is dumb because you imply that there is no thought behind it and that he would rather people talk about him than irrespective if they win or lose? Lets see him keep the dressing room that way..

I'll never be at Rassie level ( or remotely near it) but I'd love to know the benefits of hauling 4 players off before 26mins. I know one is enforced with red but from my pov it's making the game about him and not the players. I'm sure my mentions will be balanced 👀 #ITAvRSA

@jaredwright17 I have given up. That hit from Japan 8 was inexcusable. Upright, force to the face, no wrap. Adams diving into a prone players head? Nope not a direct red.

@boxbjg @jaredwright17 Whats your opinion on Beirne on Barret? Upright, shoulder to head, not even a remote attempt to wrap? Or Japan 8 woth a straight shoulder to the head upright no attempt to wrap? I am just looking for consistency. Seems to go missing when there is green and gold involved.
