Post Match Discussion Springboks-Australia

[u/AutoModerator]

This is the post match discussion. Sub rules apply.

Be respectful!

If you are not sure what that means: don't call a player, official, staff member or supporter a poes or something like that. Keep it rugby related!

I am sorry if Phepsi Buthelezi deserves a chance then guys like Reinhardt Ludwig, Nama Xaba and Renzo du Plessis deserve chances first.

We've resorted to playing the younger Weise, who is a lock by trade, at 8 because we refuse to go outside of our original selection.

For so long everyone in SA rugby, Duane was ignored as an option at 8 because he played for lesser clubs -  he got his chance after Whitely got properly injured and turned out to be one of the best number 8s in Springbok history.

Ah yes Phepsi Buthelezi plays for the Sharks a very small team. People only like Buthelezi because he plays for the Sharks, he is very mediocre.

What even is this comment? People only like Phepsi because he plays for the team most people don't like?

a very small team.

Lol what? Do you just make this stuff up as you go? The Sharks are the only South African feam to win a trophy in nearly 4 years.

The part about the Sharks being a small team was. He doesn't even start for the Sharks.

[u/Die_Revenant → u/Accomplished_Sun4921]

Phepsi played 22 games for the Sharks last season, what on earth are you talking about? Do you actually watch rugby?

[u/Accomplished_Sun4921 → u/Die_Revenant]

How many did he start?
