MW I must congratulate you with the quality of your questions and bringing new guests to the program.Will keep an eye out for Warren’s articles in the future.
Easy solution to the line-outs hassles; bring in Lood to ‘coach’ until he can play again; he’s a real student of line-out art & science. Absolutely startling we don’t even know who coaches the lineouts!
Great discussion, thanks guys! I was so looking forward to solid, accurate performances from the Boks vs Scotland & England; instead we saw inaccurate unconvincing performances, a large number of avoidable errors, lapses (eg ONGOING lineout ‘blapse’) & far too many silly penalties conceded. So disappointing. By way of comparison France, the ABs, Argentina & even Australia have looked sharp, accurate & extremely well coached all the while playing an exciting brand of rugby. Sadly I feel that for all the talk around the Boks; 2x RWC, Rugby Championship winners, big name superstars in our ranks, Rassie the genius coach etc, that we seem to have gone backwards and seem not to have learned lessons or truly improved in crucial areas. If you take out the exceptional individual performances of the likes of Cheslin, Eben, PSDT & Handre, I feel other teams have worked us out, copied the good stuff and moved ahead in various ways.
Support to get Victor Matfield to talk about the lineouts!! Victor is the lineout king! I don't understand why they don't get him as an assistant coach or consultant! 🏈👑
Topic suggestion MW: The Curios Case of Be ... Manie Libbok? MW, will appreciate it if you and Harry can look at and comment on this important and significant incident in the test: Pollard coming on at 45min (?) and then it looks like DDA on his way to the bench (as planned?), but Pollard quickly, almost in a irritating manner wanted to say: nope, stay!... we have to fix this Manie 'going to create or score 10 tonyball tries project', again, because it did not work... again! 🙄 Won't be surpised that this keeping the Manie project going, is much more than only rugby reasons, maybe some politics involved, because other players get one or two chances in the green, then they gone, but Manie are kept on board no matter what? Why? How? Come on Fixer, we want some answers!🤔👀👍
Nope, saying coaches realised that it was WC times again with Manie struggling again, therefore gave Pollard the assignment to go plan B: Pollard on, Manie subdued again early. Plan A was Manie performs and Pollard move to 12 as could be seen by DDA reaction when Pollard came on.
MW, let's talk flyhalves. Observations forced me to change my view. The Boks have only ONE established #1, Handre Pollard. I do not think we have a #2, we do have 3 #3s. The only one that seems to have the potential to become #2 is Sacha, but only time will tell. Maybe Jordan will surprise us; I hope so. The Boks are thin at flyhalf. That said, the coaches do not have another option than playing Manie. Hopefully Jordan will get a chance against Wales. Pollard is like the 'safety net' for the others. Maybe I am wrong

Thank you Johann. He is such an easy person to talk to! Credit to him

Are you suggesting Pollard overruled coaches’ substitutions? 😮

@@AdriaanWindt I think Sacha has that number two slot sewn up (depending on how angry Rassie is at him!)
Wales is too low in the rankings, so we won't gain any ranking points with a win! 😤
