South Africa plays the most violent, collision-hungry rugby on the planet, and it comes from a country that treats meat and fire as a national religion.

The Springboks win the way a wrecking ball wins. Back-to-back world champions, built around a pack of enormous forwards and a bench so loaded with them that they once named a seven-one split, seven forwards and a single back, then dared the opposition to still be standing at the end. Their entire game is the collision. They want to hit you harder, more often, for longer, until you fold. It is the most physical identity in the sport, and it grows in telling soil.

Because South Africa is, by a distance, the most carnivorous rugby nation alive. The braai, the open-fire barbecue, is the centre of social life there, a weekly act of devotion around a grid of sizzling meat. Biltong, air-dried spiced beef and venison, is the national snack, sold at every petrol station and chewed on the touchline. Boerewors, the farmer's sausage, is protected by law and has to be at least ninety percent meat to earn the name. Children grow up on kudu, springbok and ostrich, on a plate that treats animal protein as the obvious foundation of a meal. A Springbok forward is raised, quite literally, on the thing he is named after.

Now the pedant's objection, answered before it arrives. The modern team kitchen runs no headline carnivore protocol. Their dietitians use the same periodised sports-science plans as everyone else, carbs timed around matches, the lot. Nobody is claiming beef is a secret training hack. The point is more interesting than that. The meat is upstream of all of it, in the culture that forms the player long before a nutritionist gets near him, the braai in the back garden, the biltong in the school bag, the unspoken sense that a man eats animals and gets on with it.

Other nations reach a meat-heavy diet through a spreadsheet. South Africa reaches it by being South African. The same culture lights the braai and builds the man who runs straight through you. One appetite, expressed twice.

Stop asking AI to write for you, rather ask it to teach you.

Today @5pmSAST @thabangline and I will challenge one of the most dangerous trends in education & research: outsourcing thinking to AI.

We’ll show you how AI can become a tutor, supervisor, reviewer & coach that helps you develop your own voice, your own arguments and your own intellectual confidence.

A message of gratitude to General Mkhwanazi's wife, Mrs. Mkhwanazi

I just felt the need to express words of sincere gratitude to Mrs. Mkhwanazi, in case there's someone who knows her, who might pass on this message to her.

Ma'am I cannot even begin to imagine how it must be to have a husband whose life is dedicated to serving the nation unreservedly. Every wife of a law enforcement officer knows what they are signing up for, including soldiers, and we know every morning when the husbands leave the house, you fear it may be the last time you and the children see them, and many have lost their husbands in the line of duty.

Your husband Ma'am, is a special kind of a human being, who chose a higher level of sacrifice, a road less traveled, by taking on dangerous cartels and walking into the lion's den, where his colleagues and the brave would dare not go, on the 6th July 2025, as you know.

This action made him a national hero, whose face is recognized in ever corner of the country, and beyond, his name is known even by toddlers, his bravery is admired by other men, young and old, he has women crushing over him all over the country and groupies, like all famous men do. He leaves your home for days and weeks on national duty, and hopefully gives you assurance that you have nothing to worry about.

You are the one who is left looking after the children and keeping the home fires burning. We at this moment, have to pause and acknowledge you, appreciate you and thank you. We extend our love to you and we pray for your family at all times. Thank you for sharing your husband with the nation and supporting him in your own quiet way, far from the flashing cameras. As a wife, you are the one who gives him isithunzi, the dignity we see in him. We see a brave and courageous man in public, only you know his fears, anxieties, weaknesses and limitations. May God bless you and give you strength to withstand all the challenges and apprehensions you may have in the quiet of your home. Sending you and the children lots of love on behalf of all South Africans. 🙏🏽❤️

@AdeliaDineo Happy Birthday Dineo, wishing you many more.

We are often told that the public must refrain from criticising judges whose rulings appear inappropriate or biased; yet several have been found guilty of misconduct, such as:

- Judge John Hlophe: Impeached for attempting to influence Constitutional Court judges.

- Judge Timothy Victor: Found guilty of improper handling of a case and conflicts of interest.

- Judge Robert Henney: Found guilty of improper conduct during trials and potential bias.

The list is endless.

Judge Chris Nicholson was not charged with misconduct but the SCA in the Mbeki and Zuma matter dismissed his judgement as incomprehensible, unwarranted, and irrelevant judgment by ambush.

We must resist the urge and pressure to treat judges as infallible. Like public officials across branches of government, they too must face public scrutiny and accountability.

The idea that judges must not be criticised is preposterous.

[Advocates for Transformation @aftsouthafrica]

Section 3 Proceedings | Wednesday, 6 May 2026

Today’s proceedings centred on the Section 3 challenge brought by 4 of South Africa’s largest law firms, questioning aspects of the Legal Sector Code and its approach to transformation within the legal profession.

At the heart of the matter is a broader tension between technical compliance and meaningful, inclusive change. The Advocates for Transformation appear as respondents, firmly advancing the need for transformation that is substantive and lived.

As the matter continues in court, its outcome is set to shape not only the interpretation of transformation frameworks, but the future direction of equity and access within the profession.

@D_Molatoli Remember, in this case, it appeared that the NA was gate keeping, running away from its constitutional duty of invoking s89.

[Mpho Sikwe @MphoSikwe]

@D_Molatoli It's the famous case of EFF v Speaker of the National Assembly.
The main orders by the CC were an order declaring that the NA failed to put in place mechanisms & processes to hold the President accountable for failing to implement the Public Protector’s remedial action.
