@wadepretorius @RugbyGerrit What’s even worse… I justified it on my page😜

I’ll clarify on this one. He’s good and I think if I knew him personally I would admire everything about him and he obviously has a big influence in the team. But, outside of 2019, and then 2023 final, he makes too many mistakes to be the GOAT everyone says he is.

@RugbyGerrit Pieter-Steph isn’t as amazing as everyone makes him out to be

This is a pretty sick game

@RugbyBits Different type of HIA needed here

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@Lancegordon85 @ChalynRugby 🤣🤣 fair point - but still would like them more protected

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@Lancegordon85 @ChalynRugby That’s a good explanation, I’m just curious about what the defending team is supposed to do in this scenario if that’s allowed, they’ve ultimately been punished for getting a crucial turnover where they should have been rewarded

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@scrumming_ten Ja well done Dobbo on that call🙈 almost as clever as Gelant’s kick with 1 minute to play

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@RugbyGerrit Just surprised he hasn’t been recruited as a coach

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@SmithAtk23152 @moi_pseudo The irony🤣

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

I usually discourage young playmakers from joining the Bulls - I believe they’ve got too many players coming through the ranks to give everyone the development and game-time necessary. Yet in LG case, I bet he gets the 15 jersey and receives the attention needed to make him great

[SA Rugby magazine @SARugbymag]

Sharks star Luan Giliomee is set to join the Bulls. Is he making the right career move? https://t.co/eWNBfMRwQ2

@GreggMac11 As long as there’s plenty of competition 😜

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@GreggMac11 I don’t think 7 is a genuine concern - I controversially don’t believe PS has been near what he was in the final for a straight 20 minutes yet he still fills the role we need him for perfectly, so I don’t imagine with the potential we have coming through that he’s irreplaceable

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@GreggMac11 Elrigh is still coming back from an injury everybody thought might end his career, if we give him a while he’ll be back to what he was - that’s why he hasn’t looked the part
Hanekom has shown he’s willing to work wherever he plays & with Jasper still prime 7 opens up

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@sennaj7 Super insightful!

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

What I love about him is that he’s just a rugby-loving talent with an unmatched rugby IQ. Don’t want to compare, but the only other SA player I’ve put in this category is Cheslin. Who do you think of as just pure talent?

Only one answer in the Fan Vote 🤩🦈

@RugbyGerrit @wallabies @Springboks Completely agree with this - I also see discipline being a real problem for them in competetions - you can argue that the Springboks should have done more with 4 men binned, but the issue of having four men binned when there was a little bit more pressure is going to cost them

[Real Rugby Opinions @realrugbyops]

@moi_pseudo Prefer them to be great but still prefer them losing - except if it’s against England😜
