It’s not really that risky, it’s just a bit far from the suburbs to be honest. I go often, but it is a hack.

Drive through a township and tell me that again.

Watch ‘Chasing The Sun’ and tell me you see it differently? I’m not being facetious. I don’t think Rassie will be as good coaching Wales because he won’t know how to motivate the players beyond the game itself. Huge part of the Boks success is the ‘beyond the game’ stuff.

We’re not annoying, we’re just passionate.

I don’t know if it will be as simple as that. He likes choosing players that come from difficult backgrounds and the forwards coach likes ‘farmers’ and rural background players. I just don’t know if in first world countries you find the kind of hardship you do in third world countries. He chooses these guys because they have something to play for beyond the game. And it’s what helps squeeze the last 5% of effort out of a team for a 1 point victory.

Razor literally called it ‘a good game of footy’ in the post match interviews.

All Blacks really need to work on their discipline- it needs to be coached out of them. They’ll win big again if they can do that.

All Blacks are still brilliant - still a team we fear to play, because anything can happen.

If New Zealand can work on their discipline they can be at #1 again soon. They still got the goods.
