RuggaWorld’s wish list for Xmas

Posted by Boertjie - 19/12/09 at 01:12 pm under General Discussions

It’s that time of year when people are compiling wish lists for 2010. Here’s a few, but please ADD YOUR OWN.

This list is from Die Burger’s weekend column Skuimkop:

►Impartial referees that don’t go out of their way to have a go at the Japies.
►Doing away with End Of Year Tours to the Northern Hemisphere.
►New spectacles for the officials that cited the Boks.
►A wonder grow-longer cure for Joe Pietersen, who should have been in the
Bok team had he been 10 cm longer and 10 kg heavier.
►A Springbok pack not in reverse gear at scrum time.
►Air tickets for Jean de Villiers, Tina Steyn, CJ van der Linde and BJ Botha to come home.
►A Stormer’s team that performs according to expectations.
►A Cape team without Fijians on the wings.

Let me add a few of my own:

►Getting rid of Mike Stofpiele by finding him a job not remotely connected to sport.
►No South African team in the last four of the Super14.
►A REAL B-TEAM selected on merit and with a decent coach for an 8-game tour in Argentina.
►The Boks broadening their ways of attack to include more than their limited kick-and-chase gameplan.
►A decent attacking midfield combination.
►Selecting the best players, even if they are playing abroad.

Let’s hear it from the RugRats!

    - get Smal back as Forwards coach!
    - Hire Heyneke Meyer as DoR for SA!
    - Send Jake White over to Innsbruck! :wink:
    - Clone Bakkies and Matfield NOW!

    Advocates of the running game stop bleating about changing the laws show us how to use it and win.

    In short: “Put up or shut up.”

    did you see last weeks Clermont v Leicester & Quins v Sale games in the HC? What you think of them?

    Great running rugby in shitty conditions and current laws – up to the coaches/players to use the ball. :boxing:

    The rights for NH rugby is a mess in the USA so I don’t see any of it. Unfortunately.

    But I fully agree, it’s up to the teams to choose their styles.

    2009 was not due to the laws but rather due to the changes in laws. When the environment changes drastically, conservatism is the natural (and prudent) response. Things will settle in the next few years.

    And their came Jean and played a cracker this afternoon. he showed why he is the best number 12 in the world.
    ————————
    Great Test match against the poms as well, I just love test cricket and hopefully with our match and the one that was played down under, it was showed that test cricket is better than this pajama cricket that the kerrie people like.

    Nothing comes even closed to test match cricket.
    :respek: to the SA team without your front line bowler.

    prefer Test cricket.

    Die Burger’s wishlist makes me want to add mine:
    > Bok supporters and officials to get rid of their persecution complex – the refs and citing officials do not hate us nearly as much as we think they do!
    > Coaching staff and supporters to just once take a loss by the Boks without blaming the ref, weather, travel, fatigue etc
    > A return to the Boks playing exciting rugby with the emphasis on attack play – seconding your wish here Boertjie.

    Liewe Kersveesfader,

    Ek was ‘n baaaja soet oukie gewees en ek wil vir oom Kersveesfader net ‘n ou paar goeikies fra,

    -Ingroeitoonnaals vir die agterlynspeelers wat ammekaar die bal wegskop solat ons party keer dink dis sokker. Of biekie terpentuin in die vleels se sterre lat hulle darm die bal jaag as die anner skop…
    -’n Paar pakkies meel en jeuning vir :snor: solat sy stem mooier raak, hy maak my nagmerries kry as hy baja praat.
    -Vleels, heel agter, senters, losssskakel, daai klein oukie wat die bal ingooi by die skrams, vlanke, agtsteman, slotte en die vetties vir die Leeus solat hulle nie Suidafrika se naam so gat maak nie. En sommer vir die Frystaat ook meeste van daai…
    -Pulle vir die rev’s of die mense wat beslyt het mens mag nie meer trap nie, solat hulle wakker word en sien daar sal nie meer so baja gekarring word in die loskrams nie as mens biekie mag trap nie.
    -’n gun vir Mike Stofiele, Ore Hoskins en die ander klomp solat hulle regte springbokke kan skiet en die Springbok oppie trui uitlos.
    -1 van daai honde haalsbaankies vir Joos en Amor dan kan Amor dit in Joos se jokkie sit en sy kan die remout hou. Hy sallie sommer weer stout wees nie!
    -’n Haarknipper vir Franswa Stein.
    -’n Grootter wit broekie vir Jon Smif, ek is bang dit skeer party keer…
    -’n Beeker vir Weepee, asseblief net die die Vocadom beeker nie want niemand warrie daaroor nie!

    Baja daankie oom Kersveesfader ek sal dit baie wardeur en dis nie eers groot plek in oom se perdekarriekie nie. En my pa sal okie meer so baie vloek en die brannewyn so vinig dringk as hulle minder skop en weer mag trap nie.

    Groete vir tannie Krismes,
    namboer

    PS Ek sal okie omgee as daar ewe skieluk klomp gelt en klomp speelers en ‘n regte egte afrigter vir Manibiê uit die lug val solat almal nie vir ons lag as ons innie Vocadom beeker speel nie!!

    Liewe Kersvader,

    Ek het net een versoek, maar ek sal verstaan as jy dit nie kan doen nie.

    Kan jy asb net vir David die verskil tussen ‘n 1 (loskop) en 3 (vaskop) laat verstaan?

    Ek dink terwyl hy gespeel het het hy nooit opgelet nie, want hy was net te opgewonde om sy kop so naby aan ‘n ander ou se gat te kry. Help hom asb. He is lost.
