Being a Springbok supporter is a life sentence, without parole ... thank God.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Here’s how this weekend is looking -

1. Write a few chapters
2. @BlueBullsRugby melt Glasgow
3. @THESTORMERS smoke Leinster
4. Jacques resigns and rejoins to @Springboks
5. James Lowe heads back to the Canes safe in the knowledge that no one wants a slow aimless-kicking wing

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

How to beat Leinster …
Get religious at the breakdown, cleaning like you’re trying to sell your braai. Oh ja, and ref yap in unison.

How to beat Glasgow …
Keep the ball and starve them of possession. Oh ja, and avoid the 15-man maul.

Good luck @THESTORMERS & @BlueBullsRugby

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

When is the @Springboks squad being announced?

Assuming 46 is the number?

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

The leavers lists from English clubs look like film credits.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

@LionsRugbyCo @Vodacom Henco should have been there too.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Let’s compare …

Double World Cup winning coach

v

A nation with nasty journalists, obnoxious players, partisan commentators and a paranoid psyche underpinned by mediocrity and aggression.

Just venting as our national treasure is being treated terribly.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

@SARugbymag So gutting as he is a uniquely good rugby player. Can’t help but feel he should have been given more Bok exposure last year though.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

With some conjecture about Siya and PSdT’s return, a @Springboks back row of Hanekom, Louw and Roos will do just fine.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

@Brendennel Sheehan’s double flop-roll is pathetic.

Similar to Murray’s forced face plant in the 2nd Lions test.

Must be an Irish thing.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

The Irish commentary in the #LEIvLIO game is frankly disgusting.

List some more anti-South African stats, why don’t you.

@PremSportsTV please balance the commentary box and get rid of these has-beens / wannabes.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Willie still has the magic.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Sacha on crutches. Not good.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Add Connaught and here, ladies and gentlemen, are your #URC semi finalists …

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Wishing the @BlueBullsRugby @THESTORMERS & @LionsRugbyCo the best in the @URCOfficial QFs.
Even if the Irish sides throw their hands in the air and yap at the ref every time play stops, just know that playing actual go forward rugby will always prevail.
Backing you all the way.

@leinsterrugby @LionsRugbyCo @URCOfficial No fear @LionsRugbyCo, no fear.

Bordeaux played without any, so neither should you.

Man for man you’re better than this team.

Good luck.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

YES

Would also love to understand the recriminations from rugby’s governing bodies of false accusations…what governance is in place to protect young players from petulant, Irish hands-in-the-air rugby players more intent on remonstrating and making stuff up than playing rugby?

[Brenden Nel ⚒ @Brendennel]

Does Munster owe Siba Mahashe an apology for the spitting allegation?

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

Thinking out loud (dangerous, I know) but with PSdT’s injury, perhaps a shift to 7️⃣ for the @Springboks?

Proven line out threat, work rate off the charts this season, covers lock & 8, pace to burn, physicality to boot, breakdown threat and cleaning now built into the repertoire.

[DHL Stormers @THESTORMERS]

It has been some season for Evan Roos as the top try-scorer in the @Vodacom #URC, but he is not done yet and there is a big job ahead in the Quarter-Final at DHL Stadium on Saturday.

@ManusLeRoux Also Bongi, emotionally spent after some unbelievably key moments of composure to win the game, gets up slowly thinking, “Jeez, the final whistle and England still can’t shake the plastic energy.”

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

@CaptSpringbok Like clockwork, the Jacques blaming begins.

[BOKMARKS @SpringbokRWC]

@CapeSaakie Would’ve
