Peter de Villiers is beskikbaar om die Springbok-rugbyspan vir langer af te rig.
Op die Rugbyjoernaalprogram Boots & All, gisteraand was hy een van die gaste en het hy dié stelling gemaak.
“As God se werk deur my nog nie afgehandel is nie, sal ek dit oorweeg. Mense koop tans met hul petrolgeld Bok-truie”
De Villiers het gesê as hy heraangestel word, sal hy eers sy beste spelers kies en dan sy kaptein om soortgelyke omstredenheid soos die debakel met die keuse tussen die hakers John Smit, ook Springbok-kaptein, en Bismarck du Plessis te vermy.
Hy het gesê die flank Schalk Burger en die agtsteman Pierre Spies sal die twee spelers wees wat hy as kaptein sal oorweeg.
“Chiliboy Ralepelle is waarskynlik die speler met die beste leierseienskappe, maar ’n mens kan hom nie kies met Bismarck du Plessis daar nie.”
De Villiers sê daar is geen rede dat Bok-rugby ’n insinking ná Smit en die slot Victor Matfield se uittrede hoef te beleef nie.
Manne soos die Leeu-losskakel Elton Jantjies en die Vrystaat-generaal Johan Goosen maak hom opgewonde.
Wat betref die Wêreldrugbytoernooi-wedstryde het hy gesê die Walliese flank Sam Warburton en die Wallaby-baljagter David Pocock “verneuk” met hul spel op die grond.
“As ’n skeidsregter nie ’n wedstryd kan uitsort nie, hoort hy nie op die veld nie. Dit was (Pocock se) onwettige omgekeerde balbesit wat ons afgestaan het, wat die seerste gemaak het.”
Peter was joviaal en duidelik meer gemaklik en onder heelwat minder druk as in die laaste paar maande gisteraand, asof die las van die Wêreldbeker nou heeltemal verlig is.
Liewe hemele behoed ons… kry die man nie die boodskap in 4 blerrie jaar dat hy ‘n clown is nie?
Ek sal dit nie deur die volgende 4 jaar maak met die man weer aan die stuur nie, gewis nie!
GBS, I have put aside a tank of wine that we can drown ourselves in if Snor is chosen – at leasts we will go down in a good mood!
Must admit, Ou Snor seemed in very jovial mood last night.
Perhaps he’s too dof to realise he stuffed it all up!
Imagine if Tricky Dicky had been on as well. Keystone Cops se moer.
I suppose the Lions have a problem with Mr Muir now. He’s still under contract I think. Geez, imagine him coming in and fukcing up all of JM’s work in one fell swoop!
@ grootblousmile:Can you imagine if SARU went from a coach like Div, to someone like Graham Henry.
One the arch clown, and the other a serious sour faced bag of puss!
3 @ Just For Kicks:
Hehehe
I’ll take you up on that offer if he’s chosen!
Ons sal suip tot ons bars!
4 @ Scrumdown:
And then he (Snor) proceeded to try and analize how the semi’s would pan out and what the different strenghts of the remaining sides are….
We need a serious fella at the helm now, to repair the illusion that senoir players are allowed to direct the type of play and Game Plans… and to bliksem and donner the one-dimentionality out of the Bokke.
If only the Bokke could realize they could be so much more, that their wildest aspirations could be achieved with the right coach…
5 @ Scrumdown:
What would you have, the happy clown or the serious school master with the cane?
Put it this way, I do not think the players tell Graham Henry how they want to play!
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOMEONE PLEASE WAKE ME UP FROM THIS NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!!
Can someone please tell Divvie, that being a rugby coach at this level is not his forte?
SA rugby het n’ revolusie nodig.
Revolusionere denke, n’ nuwe “breed” van intelligente spelers, en as hulle PDV weer annstel is dit alles in sy moer in.
Ek sal wragtig ophou om rugby te kyk.
8 @ Lion4ever:
Hehehehe
9 @ biltongbek:
Ek dink nie ek sal kan ophou rugby kyk nie, maar ek gaan jou een ding sê… ek sal duidelik die Bulls as my voorkeur kies bo die Bokke…
Rassie would be the obvious choice. Astute technical thinker, but maybe not so good at communicating that to the players. We need someone who thinks long term, next 12-15 years, but is able to get results now. That person must be able to articulate the best structures in terms of Superugby, Currie Cup, VC and age group levels, and put structures in place to identify talent from all competitions we are invloved in. And he must be able to transcend the petty politics of SA rugb
SA rugb, should read SA rugby
11 @ Lion4ever:
My preference of course lies with Heyneke Meyer..
If there is ONE guy who can build an Empire, it is him!
… people will say, yes but see how long he took with the Bulls… but you know what, the Bokke squad is already there, the players are there…. we just need the Man-manager par Excellance to rock up and change their ways…
I recon the Bokke can have immediate success with Heyneke Meyer.
Would he be available? Probably not… but I will go and speak with him personally, if that is what it would take.
Rassie…. don’t like the man, he’s not serious enough, bit of a joker himself… and a friend to the players…. that much we already know. What makes you think Rassie is such an astute technical thinker? His ploy with the lights at the Cheetahs? The players he bought for the Stormers?
I say he’s roumoured to be technically astute, but I have not seen the results… not at the Cheetahs, not at WP / Stormers and also not now with the Springboks.
GBS, I base my assumption on his time with Cheetahs, and no, not his disco lights, but the fact that he won a couple of CC titles with them, with a limited squad. He has not made aas big an impact with WP, as I would have expected. He has made some good buys for WP with guys like Jacque Fourie, Duane Vermeulen etc.
According to the press, he is supposed to have a great rugby brain.
Agree that HM can build for the long term, but he has a very conservative rugby mindset. He has not really deviated from the traditional strength of the Bulls and that is 10 man rugby, which fails if you do not have a flyhalf like Naas, Derick, Morne, and now that new dude, who looks like he can vary his play a bit)
14 @ Lion4ever:
Looks like very few candidates are actually available…
Alister Coetzee
Disco Rassie, the snorter
Tricky Dickie Oorrie Muir
Gary Glitter (Gold)
Jimmy Stonehouse
Naka Drotske
Snormonstertjie
That’s about it. None of them inspire me. Hell I would not want anyone of them,
It’s sad shit!
Hope with the limited options they don’t go for a 4-year term… but I bet you they will.
If SARU makes the same mistakes, one MUST wonder about their collective intellect…
Oh fark, I just answered myself there.. they will make the same mistakes…
GBS, then we have the “Hammer”, but I don’t know if his stint with Italy was a good thing.
And what about our master of the post match interview, Brendan.
We are a bit thin in the coaching dept, but there must be someone out there in the Kitch Christie mould that can take the side to the next level?
17 @ Lion4ever:
Brendan Venter and Mallett have apparently ruled themselves out as candidates…
I would take Mallett any day above the ones which I’ve indicated are available…. he had very limited stock to work with at Italy and their forwards became quite a force. Also he’s a no-nonsense authoritative type of coach…. but SARU doesn’t like his outspoken nature.
Whatever or whomever is selected needs to be a coach with a massively strong will and brass cahoonies… not a controlable puppet!
Don’t we have someone lurking in the shadows that could the job. Although he has specialised in 7’s, wouldn’t Paul Treu be a potential candidate? But then I saw what Chester did to the Cats after being the national 7’s coach. But Paul has done a very good job in tryinig circumstances.
19 @ Lion4ever:
Personally I think that the gap between 7’s and the 15-man game is massive.
Let Treu get back into 15’s coaching first, let’s see what he’s capable of.
Would you consider one of the recently retired players? Matfield?
Hell, I don’t know what or where… all that I know is that Snor, Dickie and Gold must just stay the hell away.
Also think we need a real thinker (not a wishful thinker), someone with a decent rugby brain…. at the same time someone who knows the modern game.
Maybe someone who knows the SA players but is not an SA National… Tim Lane springs to mind, so does Ewen McKenzie… and a few others
Unfortunately I don’t think we will be bold enough to go foreign.
Anyway, cheers for now
Well I feel that even I can do a better job than the current coaching team hehehehe
I can understand how we can all see the same things and agree and friggin SARU are like the horende dowes and sienende blindes!!!!!
of course we could just wait till after the AB’s choke and Graham Henry will be looking for work and if not…….it will be Robbie Deans looking for a job 🙂
Unfortunately guys, we have to be honest with ourselves and admit that there is no one currently on the scene that jumps out. The Bulls supporters favour Meyer, but Lion4ever summed up his limitations very well. I personally am a fan of Mallet. Living in Italy, I know what he had to deal with here and you can’t judge him on his results with Italy. However we can judge him on his previous term with the Boks and he f-upped his WC. Maybe he has gained more experience in handling administrators by now, but I don’t believe SARU will consider him and I don’t believe he will want to work for them again either.
No, looks like Snorre it is. Break out the strong stuff guys. We won’t make it through his next term sober
Can’t see Saru appointing a foreign coach either and with the political situation, it’s probably got to be a coach of colour. So very likely it’s gonna be Alistair Coetzee.
The other thing is I don’t know why you guys make so much of foreign coaches, especially kiwi coaches. I don’t see anything wonderful about Plumtree. John Mitchel has just arrived at the Lions and they were due to start improving in any case. Can’t judge this CC as it’s been a WC year and the other teams have not had their regular players.
Speaking about Mallet, I would like to see him coaching the Stormers if Alistair gets the Bok job.
