Proper impressed with Kolisi.
Hell of a guy - loved it last year when the womens cricket World Cup was in SA. He was front and centre supporting the SA women’s team
I've been to SA quite a few times and it is easy to view it as being like the UK.
Our divisions ( party, Brexit, class, economics) pale into insignificance compared to the inheritance they have from aparthide, something that still hangs heavy on a nation with so much potential.
I know too that this result will lift folk in all the surrounding nations in Southern Africa.
Glad it was the Boks. Wish it had been us.
Now COYT!
I used to sit near a stalker and we want him back "kick for the corner!!!!"
Jamie George worried about a potential Borths sacking,no chance! 3rd place isn’t bad considering so he’s definitely gonna get to complete the next RWC cycle unless things go badly wrong

Quote below:
Jamie George will certainly not be a happy man if Steve Borthwick is sacked by the RFU after England's third-placed finish at the Rugby World Cup. Borthwick's side performed above expectations in France despite the benefit of a favourable draw, although South Africa ultimately proved too strong for them in the semi-England finished their campaign on a high note with a hard-fought win over Argentina to clinch the bronze medal and leave Borthwick with praise ringing in his ears. The 44-year-old endured a tough start to his time in charge of England but has since proved his mettle to bring a fresh wave of optimism in spite of their Rugby World Cup exit.
George is a huge admirer of Borthwick, who he believes is the 'perfect man' to continue leading England as they begin to prepare for the next edition of the tournament in 2027.
"For me Steve is the perfect man," said George. "He never sits still, I don’t think he ever sleeps. I have huge confidence in him to make sure we get this right. If those contracts do come in I have every confidence he will do it in the absolute right way that does not take away from the club game, because that’s something that means a lot to me."

Mbonambi says England were "unprofessional" to have made a complaint, and that it's sad that the English assume everyone else speaks English - they should have just gone online and done a translation.
A) This interview was done in English. No one is assuming that Mbonambi speaks English. He does speak English.
B) if you use Google to translate "white c&%£" from Afrikaans to English, you still end up with.... "white c&%£".
Pretty unprofessional, in my opinion, to do an interview criticising a fellow professional for something he is already receiving a lot of online abuse for. To be honest it makes me think Mbonambi did actually say white c&%£ and he's criticising Curry/England to try to deflect from himself. If it was indeed just a misunderstanding, surely just say "he misunderstood, different language, no hard feelings, move on"?
Also, very dangerous message to criticise anyone for reporting alleged racism, isn't it?

I can't help but think this is a mischievous ligustic deliberate pun. Much as when the kids I used to coach at cricket cottoned on to the fact that the cry of "Catch it!!" sounded very much like feline excrement.
Exile Wigstonite living in Wales.
Poet laureate of the "One Eyed Turk".
Bar stool philosopher in the "Wilted Daffodil"
there is certainly a prevailing societal attitude that black people cannot be racist to white people which is often held by those most vocal about social injustice, blind to the racial discrimination they are in fact perpetuating.
I find the irony of that quite amusing to be honest, as for this incident, Curry thought he heard something and reported is a players are instructed to do. Really not sure what else he was supposed to do?

Well said Big Dai, the old ones are always the best.. The neighbours had a tabby called " Cooking Fat!" to get it back in..
