Jaysus it has just been so glaring what a step down Nkosi is. All the tries down his wing. One of the most hopeless performances by a Bok I have ever seen, should never be near a Bok side again

It was the same last week. He was pretty shy of contact.

Embarrassing how Sards fawns over him. I would really prefer someone who can tackle and actually read a game instead of this clown

Coach is in a massive hole now. Faf, Pollard and Willie all crap. Herschel has the yips and 5Bar hardly any game time. No-one else in the squad in the backs has a single minute on tour, except Fassi.

Forwards look fat and disinterested. Tight 5 are lazy, maul without Lood is toothless and loosies not a unit. Does he start Kwagga and give Van Staden more than 6 mins? What about Mostert who is out of position, but is our best forward just now.

Wiese surely skipper next week, Nienaber?

AB next week and surely too late to bring in Fassi, JLDP and Co.

I think that it is plain to see that Nienaber has never coached a team in his life as a head coach.

He was obviously a pretty fukken good defense coach, and obviously never coached defense last week.

It was very arrogant of SARU appointing him with no experience.

Ja we have a big problem now.

Most worrying was, that we looked absolutely clueless and had zero composure.

Fuck me. Two months is a lifetime in rugby. Feels like we're back to the bad old days.

JN really fucked up on selection for Australia. Now we either stick with this rabble for the All Blacks or try throw some fresh meat at them. Either way, we're screwed next week.

Well we've been saying since the Lions games that the balance is wrong here.

Get rid of Wiese (I'm going to give him a special mention in my prayers this evening and ask that he be sanctioned and banned during the week), Kwagga and useless fucking Willie (permanently) for Fassi. Play Mostert at 5 and JLDP at 7. Start Duanne and replace with Dan. Pull Captain Invisible early and get van Staden on. Faf can ride pine too. He is woefully out of form and petulant. :sick:

I've never seen a team so brain dead. You score rolling mauls at will last week so of course the Ozzie go back and practice countering it. What do we do? Try rolling mauls all afternoon barely making a meter.

Exactly this. Depressing stuff.
We will hear nienaber's same "we trust those guys and know what they have done for us" mantra again and see exactly the same useless selections for our intended gameplan again.

We know what we get from Kolisi. It was never a problem when he was a Stormer. There are 15 players on the field at a time. We could do a player for player analysis and it will be ugly reading for most of them.

So SA can still win the RC. Just need to beat the ABs by an average of > 45 in the next 2 games.

Although they might not manage that, I never write them off. The rivalry is too strong.

I was watching PSdT on Use it or Lose it last night. He spoke about the mental challenge the Boks faced being in the bubble and not being able to see friends and family.

I suspect the Boks are mentally in a bad place right now, long before they even get onto the field. Rassie managed to manage it when we were in Japan for so long, but some of these guys have been in the Bok bubble since June.

Nkosi didn't have a great match. But the Bok approach has criminally underused the wingers. Nkosi hasn't played much in the last 2 years. It's almost as if the wings have been instructed to stay exclusively in their channel on the tramlines in all attacking movements whether its from first phase ball/ set pieces or not. We're really short of out and out pace in the midfield. Willie is a carthorse. No wonder we have so few line-breaks. Mapimpi is an amazing footballer, he should be coming off his wing and used more creatively. Instead he is just being used as a kick chaser.

The kicks have been poor. Too deep. Our wingers turn into defenders instead of attackers. Our Scrumhalves are just as shit. That one from Herschel went straight up.

Easy things first. Since PSdT left out defense went through the window. If we want to beat the All Blacks our defenders need to be in their face for 80 minutes.
