Rugby World Cup 2015

Well i would mentions 3 or 4 players here Victor being one, then there is schalla, duane and you can even have a look at Adriaan and Fourie.
damn i forgot about Duane, yes him as well, great leader who leads from the front and can inspire the team.
 
Burger has only captained the team once, in a game where we lost in the dying minutes of a game. Duane has captained teams on Super Rugby level. Both just doesn't have the same level of experience like Victor does. Also, I would rather want Duane and Burger to concentrate on their game rather than the captaincy. Victor has already been the forwards captain and has been captain of the Boks team in a RWC. I know he is probably the favourite to be made captain, and I for one would not be worried at all about that.
 
Why not just pick Rudi Paige :p

Now i see they are in thinking of being idiotic again and playing Pollard on 12 wtf would you do that when you have a specialized center coming in and sitting with 2 others in Kriel and Dealinde and Peterson who has played center most of the SR season.

If you want to come fk up our attacking back line as it is now go do stupid shit like that
 
And [MENTION=20]Solitude[/MENTION] takes the lead in the MyBB RWC competition after the Tonga game!

Well done, [MENTION=20]Solitude[/MENTION]! Looking good on Superbru as well, I see.
[MENTION=8179]MickeyD[/MENTION], am I blind/stupid/both (rhetorical, don't answer) but I don't see your name on the 'bru?

The only way I can win this thing is if South Africa makes it through to the finals. So go Bokke! :D

Not as well as you Mister! Excellent round for you! Well done.

Thank you. But as you well know, Superbru is a fickle mistress. Today she loves you, tomorrow kry jy op jou gat met die houtlepel.

This next round is going to have some tough games, lemme tell you. I'm not going to make any predictions yet but I think about half the games could go either way even if it might mean a minor upset. And all the injuries are not making it any easier. I think the list of injured players would have grown quite a bit by Monday.

I'm not there... I have too much on my plate right now.

Not only sport related, but IRL as well. Crime forum, rugby supporters' club committee, etc.

Retirement is not just about sitting on the stoep, watching sport and sipping cocktails it seems.

In my opinion this is one of the strongest looking teams we've had in a while! :D I can't wait for the game!

Oh, oh, oh. Now I'm excited! That's a pretty decent team with pretty good bench as well.

"Is tha' a hilt in yer kilt, o' are ye just happy to see me, laddie?"
 
Is Victor injured or something? He isn't in the starting squad or on the bench. I would not have expected that at all!

But yeah, the team does look quite good. He made the combos that a lot of people have been talking about (Damian & Jesse)(Lood & Eben). Maybe Strauss to start ahead of Bismarck, but overall it looks good.

I think it was his hamstring. They delayed announcing the team in case he recovered enough in the mean time.
 
The two Steves have been knocked of the podium. Congrats to Ho3n3r for taking up the top spot and Mister 44 only a small margin behind him. They happen to have picked Wales to win that game so they are either brilliant or know nothing about rugby. :p

Hehehehehe "whistling:
 
I can't believe how poorly the All Blacks are playing. Georgia is actually controlling the pace of the game and the amount of handling errors by the All Blacks is shockingly bad!
 
I think the AB's are just pacing themselves and saving them for the semis and final, but savea is a monster 3 tries again.

Definitely not! The wife also retired the garden engineer and the domestic worker, so guess who has to step into the breech? :cry:
