The Proteas are back with a vengeance
The great fight back by the Proteas in the second test at Newlands gave supporters a lot of hope for the remaining matches. Time at the crease were sorely needed after the debacle […]
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 Break the Mould
On Thursday, I had to swallow my words when JP Duminy and the tail-enders batted South Africa to a match-winning first innings total. This was followed by the bowlers, spearheaded by Dale Steyn, […]
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 […]
Het jou, Katvis!
Some of you may remember this expression from the cartoon series “Grootbek en Katvis” on TV in the early days when ou Grootbek tried to outsmart the wily catfish I used the very […]
Fools rush in
This old adage, from a Protea perspective, refers more to the second part: “…where angels fear to tread.” The prospect of facing Mitchell Johnson must be a daunting one, yet AB de Villiers, […]

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 […]
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 […]
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
On the whole, most SA rugby fans will be pleased with the performance of the Springboks on Saturday. There are a few concerns, notably at the kick-offs, where they did not field the […]
Bobby’s Boys
In my opinion, this is South Africa’s best 5-day test XI since readmission. Please note that I did not consider persons with less than 40 test matches. The balance of the side is: […]
Vernon you beauty!
An empathic 9 wicket win within three days is not an everyday experience in New Zealand – but that is exactly what the Proteas did! They lead the series 1 – nil with […]
The Mother of all Collapses…
A brave decision by Proteas skipper, Smith, paid out more than they bargained for. The play on words “paid out” is deliberate as I think it was a gamble on a pitch which […]
Die dag toe Heyneke vir Julius van die voorblad gevee het
deur Paul. Daar sal nie te veel mense wees wat trane stort oor die feit dat die aankondiging van die nuwe Springbok-afrigter saamgeval het met die skop onder die jis vir iemand wat duidelik […]
