    I am a prop, but even I know when attacks are oredictable.

    How Frans Ludeke have not yet watch a video tape of some of his NZ opposition and realised stationary ball recievers who run straight at the defender is not going to work just dumbfounds me.

    It is so pathetic to see how Kirchner, Olivier and Spies just don’t know there is such a thing as an offload or pass to the player in a better position.

    I find it hilarious.

    The Blls are more predictable than DSTV programming.

    Reply to biltongbek @ 11:22 pm: You are right about all this predictable play but don’t apologize for being a prop. Nowadays they are versatile. Did you see the Chiefs prop taking the quick kickoff in the game against the Cheetahs? LOL the ref who after the guy stuffed up the kickoff was heard to say to him “shouldn’t you be leaving that someone else?”.

    Reply to out wide @ 11:38 pm: haha, I heard that, it was quite funny to see a referee concerning himself with the tactical execution of a prop.
