1. The Super 12 is about to start. i can't wait to see how the teams perform, this is definetly one of the most excting tournaments in the world.
2. The Springboks have a new coach - none other than Jake White, i'm really excited and happy that he has been appointed, as i am a massive fan and admirer of his. Now i have the confidence again in beloved South African Rugby.
Jake White: "As you know over the past few years I have worked very closely with the juniors and there is a huge pool of talent to choose from. When I was at the international coaching conference recently (Australian coach) Eddie Jones said they were terrified that if South Africa managed to get it right they would never be able to compete with us because genetically and physically we produce superior athletes."
White said he promised to re-establish the aura that was once associated with the national colours and regain the confidence of the public in the face of the negativism currently sweeping the game in this country. |
