BOKMARKS

My Dad used to regale me with stories of Rugby Tours to South Africa, touring sides arriving on our shores to take on the best we had to offer. I never thought a full tour would become a reality, dreaming of one day attending and taking my son. This day is now upon us, Rugby's Greatest Rivalry #RGR underway. Feels like we’ve been supporting the @Springboks all over the world – between singing Irishmen, wild Frenchmen, accommodating Scottish fans and suffering Welshmen; between bar-brawling Kiwis, disinterested Aussies, the bowing Japanese and rah England supporters. Now I get to come home again and support the Boks with my people. Shirts bought, bags packed, breath held, we're coming home. Thank you @Springboks for being #ENOUGH Forever a #Safanatic

That press conference was a difficult watch.

@ProteasMenCSA win against the panto villain Aussies. @THESTORMERS win. @BlueBullsRugby win. @SharksRugby win away in Ireland.

@SharksRugby win in France. Then Wales. Now Ireland. #MUNvSHA And keeping Munster to 3 points. These are huge results. Kudos.

That is brutal. @oxnche

Unique skillset. Has to be a consideration for the World Cup next year. Special talent. Reads the game like Willie and breaks the line like Gaza. And way better than Fassi. #Siyaya #MUNvSHA

Me neither. In his high-pitched voice too. Sounded more like a proposition than an insult.

Double World Cup Winner doing what Double World Cup Winners do #BULvSCA

Evan Roos. Not forgotten.

So chuffed for him, the team and the country. Special series win @ProteasMenCSA 🇿🇦

I know Bazball has been sacked but how jealous England fans must be to watch proper Test Cricket with application, digging in and a genuine 5th day setup of mouthwatering permutations. #RSAvAUS #TestisBest @MichaelVaughan

Dear @ProteasMenCSA Thank you for making every effort to have this Test wrapped up before the first #URC game.

Look, Willie had his shaky moments like most players but Fassi is going to cost us a World Cup unless he is replaced with better options like Siyaya.

I think Willie changed the modern role of a fullback.

Good players shouldn’t have to find form.

Legend of the game. No one will ever see the game like Willem le Roux.

Fully relaxed. Just don’t rate either exclusively for rugby reasons.
