Yep - and every other manager since SCW.

Records lie a lot.
For example, Gatland the winningest winner has destroyed the
Lions.
Eddie the winningest winner has destroyed England.

It’s good that you have someone to play with because I know that
with your behaviour issues you both have trouble making friends.
So try not to upset him and make sure you let him play with your
toys.

Who invited this guy? Which multi is he, I'm never good at this
stuff.
Must say, it's a new thing being accused of being in cahoots
with Quinky - how times change :)

I didn't realise you could only post if invited. That being the
case who invited you to post insults at me after I had neither
responded to or commented on your posts? And who invited the
other child to join in and posts insults at me?
It seems you are both very good at insulting others but don't
like it when people respond. Shame.
Now as I said before run along as I have grown-ups to speak to.

fit for the players he'd have at his disposal. SA are playing
some good rugby at the moment, but even now it's incredibly
power-based. Remember the aberration of Gatland's Lions vs
Rassie's Boks in 2021?

But it's not all about power. The Book pack is also pretty
dynamic. And as for the backs, in Kolbe and Arendse they've got
two of the most exciting wings we've seen on the world stage in
years.

Sure.
That's kind of my point.
The Boks team is insane. I don't put any of that down to Rassie.
He had them playing gouge your own eyes out with a spoon rugby
not 2 years ago.

But it's where he's got them to that matters.

Shrinky, you are a magnificent ambassador for SA Rugby but even
though I am the most tolerant and patient (old) of people I
would happily see Crassie wrapped in foil and rendered down on
the braii. He is a person who would put newbies off coming into
rugby.
