Wimbledon Wipe-out
First Nadal went, then Sharapova, now Federer. The people running the show must be very grateful that their tickets for next week are already sold. The two gentlemen, Rafa in particular, are the […]

What a Weekend
This weekend was a particularly frustrating one for the females in my family who were obliged to watch PVR recordings of shows that clashed with my sporting obligations on the box. Thank you […]
A bitter Pill
The only consolation for me after two defeats, since Tuesday, is that the junior Boks at least put up a semblance of a fight, and hung in there right up to the end. […]
Too close for comfort
This just about sums up everything South Africans, and the world, faced this weekend. Merion makes mincemeat of the world’s best players Justin Rose, winning by two shots after finishing at one over […]
Welcome to Politics, John
This was the remark made by my colleague, Bobby, when he read about Brian van Zyl publicly contradicting John Smit regarding the future of John Plumtree in Sharks rugby. John certainly is no […]
Hier kom die Bokke

Three out of Four
Wind uit hul Seile En daar vind die Stormers toe uit jy kan nie oornag van super verdediging oorskakel na super aanval nie. Veral nie as jy twee ysters soos Vermeulen en Elstadt […]
Are we “Trying” hard enough?
I blame the poor rugby, from all but one team, squarely on today being Monday the thirteenth, and I am doomed to try and find something positive to say after the way the […]
Bleeding in the Trenches
There was a short, almost implied comment in my morning paper which provided me with better insight into the current situation of the South African sides in the Super 15 competition. I read […]
Too little too late
This may very well be the lament of both the Stormers and the Sharks, after the weekend’s disappointing losses. Neither team should have lost their respective matches, yet suffered self-inflicted defeats. The Kings […]
Super 15 Week Twelve
This public holiday in the middle of the week really messed up my biological clock. When I woke up this morning, going to work was the last thing on my mind. Then, when […]
