The saddest thing about the Springboks...

... is that nobody cares

They collect their pay cheques, the coach makes his excuses and moves on to the next debacle and the public are apathetic

There is no national fervor or excitement or even the desire to fix what is broken. The status quo is accepted by all

Nobody cares...

After 50 years of absolute frenetic springbok support , waking up at strange hours of the night, placing matchboxes with the lions and springboks on top of my square TV , It has come about that I learn't there was a springbok game against Australia at Bloemfontein that I never made any effort to watch, and wasn't really even sure of the venue or time. Like wise It was only today around 14.00 that I casually decided to check what happened with the latest springbok game overseas, since I was busy with other matters on the internet.

I think the reality has sunk in for me -- Springbok Rugby is dead and buried and will never be resurrected again. There is absolutely no further motivation to make any effort to watch the games, since even hoping against all odds is now a relic of the past.

How the fuck can one get excited about this absolute crock of shite......... 2x prime examples of what a joke SA rugby is... prior to the team travelling, our starting Flank Jean Luc Du Preez gets injured and is out of the tour... Our genisius decided to replace him with a Lock... yes a flank for a lock.... now, Coenie a PROP is out injured and has returned home, and who replaces him???? An eight man, yes an eight man.... how the fuck can you take these clowns seriously?????
