Good one Veronica
I disagree with close to 100% of your postings and at times have directed sarcastic comments at you.
But at the end of the day I allways respect someone whose prepared to eat "humble pie".
Have a good day |

| So you saying SA won the worldcup just coz of the defence.. you have to score point to win a game son, and you cant score point by defending you have to do a attacking play to score a point and "the best way to defend is to attack" and thats what AB's is known for.. therefore we have the best defence.. |

"na i got nothing to say it was a good game boks made far 2many mistakes a few bad calls by ref but, boks had there chances but couldnt capitalize, good win to the blacks gota give credit were credit is due.."
Have i died and gone to heaven?
Veronica praising the AB's?
I agree the Boks made too many errors, and didn't take advantage of thier opportunities, but they were outplayed across the park, particularly in the loose.
So far as the ref's calls, i think there were some strange ones, but i don't think they favoured either side so much as they were just strange.
I'm sure V will have something to say about that comment.
But i appreciate your praise. |

| As shown in the game against the all blacks. The Boks defense was no good. The all blacks defense is better |

And here are some more of your local news papers comments...
( look out for the defense comment)
All Blacks dominate Springboks
16/08/2008 17:14 - (SA)
While New Zealand scored only one try in the opening 40 minutes, they added two more after the interval and at the same time denied the Boks a point. But it could have been so different had the home side taken a few of the chances they created in the first half.
Scrumhalf, centres Adrian Jacobs and and wing all caused havoc in the New Zealand backline with some clever running lines, but there was just no way through a brilliantly organized defence.
The Boks though were also their own worst enemy as they regularly gave up ball at the breakdowns where Richie McCaw ruled. They also spilled passes while some of the players at times got themselves isolated which resulted in New Zealand winning a good number of penalties.
And had flyhalf Dan Carter had his kicking boots on the score would certainly have been a whole lot worse for the Boks. In total he missed three penalties and a conversion.
But he made up for his kicking woes with an otherwise excellent display, including a try in the second half. New Zealand scored as early as the seventh minute when centre Conrad Smith dived on to a ball kicked into the Boks' in-goal area by McCaw, but the score would stay that way until the 66th minute.
Carter would then silence the partisan home crowd - who'd heckled him all afternoon - by stepping past three Bok defenders to score next to the uprights.
( #NOTE Veronica...Carter passes 3 THREE BOK defenders )yep boks are very good at defense..lol
Then, with six minutes to go, the visitors wrapped up the match when replacement Keven Mealamu intercepted a poor pass by Jean de Villiers to crash over for his team's third try.
South Africa 0 New Zealand 19
sigh... enough said! I guess Robbie Deans is rubbing his hands in anticipation of this great bok defense! |

I simply fail to understand how this woman can even make a statement like that!:"boks have best defence ever."
It must be that if you are a bok supporter you automatically become stupid too'and if you become the coach then you're a moaner / whiner automatically.
Veronica.. for your info take a look at these stats below to see who really has the best defense based on a winning track record and try and see where the boks are. I take it you can do the maths from that.?
Tri-Nations championship:
Previous champions
1996 - New Zealand
1997 - New Zealand
1998 - South Africa
1999 - New Zealand
2000 - Australia
2001 - Australia
2002 - New Zealand
2003 - New Zealand
2004 - South Africa
2005 - New Zealand
2006 - New Zealand
2007 - New Zealand
Now this is not rocket science so please do not open your mouth until you actually know what you are talking about.
Your local SA newspaper calls your latest bok fiasco:
"Newlands: The Bok flop shop"
16/08/2008 22:02 - (SA)
Rob Houwing
Cape Town - The Springboks created ignominious history at Newlands here on Saturday by failing to put a point on the board in an ego-denting 19-point reverse at the hands of the All Blacks.
NOW PRAY TELL... WHERE IS THIS GREAT DEFENSE YOU ARE SPEAKING OF" you must be the only one that does not acknowledge the truth
YOU BOK WORLD CHAMPS SHOULD BE QUIET NOW AND RESPECT THE REAL CHAMPS IN YOUR TOWN. |

Yeah, right. And their passing game is so good, they even pass to the AB's so we can score under their posts. :) |
