Smith accuses cry baby Lions

Captain Smit defends Springboks behavior

ROTFLMAO

Is smit PDV's love child?

What a wanker, well actually both of them

I thought Smit was an admirable sort of guy. Ah well that was then

So far the coach, the players involved and the captain have all come out
and acted like twats. Group them together as "South Africans" and we're
accused of generalizing and being prejudiced. Perhaps the posters here
making these accusations and so sensitive to criticism of all things SA
should pause for a minute and consider why people this side of the pond
have lost an awful lot of respect for them over the series, which has
left a bad taste in the mouth.

To be fair, the posters on here have seemed fair enough (obvious trolls
aside).
They have admitted to being embarased, but you can hardly expect them to
be outraged when their team is a winning one with a good setup.

Mr.Will

One of these days people will work the Brits out. Apologize when you should,
and it will be forgotten in minutes. If you don't then whatever it is is
going to get blown out of all proportion.

I understand that. My 4 grandparents were all born in the Southern
areas of England.
If I was Botha or Burger I would definitely say something to the
effect of

"I am sorry that I hurt you. There really wasn't anything personal or
malicious but I understand that you feel aggrieved. Good luck on
Saturday. May the best side win. See you for a beer after the game"


Funnily enough, it's well known (at least here in New Zealand) that
that is EXACTLY the sort of player Burger is. Apparently him and Jerry
Collins would hook up for a beer after bashing the crap out of each
other. And when you're like that you just do it, you don't talk about
it first.

Only the poms want a discussion paper followed by an open debate
followed by a committee meeting followed by a report followed by a
recommendation followed by an action group followed by a leak to the
press followed by letters to the editor followed by *** knows what
all else before somebody decides to actually turn up for a fucking
beer.

This is getting beyond lame now.
