Clansey's Clangers & Proteas win!
Clancey Clangers not the only reason – Paul Kruger If the Springboks had the benefit of appealing against the result of Saturday’s match against Australia, their chances of success would be excellent if […]

Proteas Bloom
The single biggest reason why I enjoy a South African victory over an Australian side, more than one over the English, is that the Aussies are usually much more competitive. I was fortunate […]
Size does Matter
This is the only logical conclusion I could come to when I saw the Springbok team selected for the test against the International side on Saturday. One cannot fault the pack, including the […]
AB is Redefining Batting
These are not my words – it was uttered by a commentator during the Bangladesh/Pakistan match yesterday. Few can fault this thinking, or disagree with the view. Batting him at number three, as […]
A Lone Shark
The title of an article on Supersport reads: “Looks like Sharks will stand alone”, and possibly reflects the views of most South African fans at this stage of the Super 15 Competition. The […]
Proteas boast ICC selection
The announcement of the ICC test and ODI teams for the past year* rewarded the consistent performance of the Proteas with 4 places in the test side which underlines their status as the […]
Proteas Host India
The much anticipated series between the Proteas and India is upon us. Although South Africans may feel cheated with the reduced tour schedule (3 ODI’s & 2 Tests), we must make the best […]
Close but no Cigar
This may well be the theme for the Proteas, going forward, unless someone finds a way of teaching them that a series starts with the first game, not the second. My own views […]
A Fitting End
The demolition job on France on Saturday summed up where the Springboks currently are. Much has been said about the game itself, so I will focus on a few aspects not related directly […]
Scotland the Grave?
Nie oud of koud nie Dan Carter speel hierdie naweek in sy 100ste wedstryd vir die All Blacks. Daar was al spelers wat hierdie mylpaal bereik het, maar na my mening is hy […]
Like Lambs to the Slaughter
According to an article on the Supersport website, South Africa have now failed to cross the 200-mark in five of their last seven matches, including a 4-1 defeat against Sri Lanka in July […]
Perfectly Planned and Executed
Western Province 19 – Sharks 33 An article in my local paper titled, “That is why WP lost” may well have read: “Why the Sharks won.” It lists the following 5 factors: Poor […]
Cape of Storms
It is a bit much expecting me to believe that the Sharks, with a possible starting line-up containing eleven Springboks, are the underdogs. There were more attempts at trying to shirk the mantle […]
Currie Cup – Not all cut and dried & Proteas Back to the Grindstone
Currie Cup – Not all cut and dried The outcome of the weekend’s clashes can still influence where the Currie Cup ends up this year. While some will play for home ground advantage […]
Chiefs take the honours in S15 Final
Super Final Contrary to popular (local?) belief, a rugby final does not have to be boring. What I found fascinating was not only the contest on the field, but also the game of […]
Worrying times
A much improved bowling and fielding performance by the Proteas in the 2nd one day international was not enough to secure victory. They fell 17 runs short in the rain affected, Duckworth-Lewis influenced […]
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 […]
