Comments on: British and Irish Lions can only blame themselves http://www.sportsleader.co.za/justinlawrence/2009/06/30/the-british-and-irish-lions-can-only-blame-themselves/ Thu, 17 May 2012 13:23:08 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: D http://www.sportsleader.co.za/justinlawrence/2009/06/30/the-british-and-irish-lions-can-only-blame-themselves/#comment-6230 D Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:22:17 +0000 http://www.sportsleader.co.za/justinlawrence/2009/06/30/the-british-and-irish-lions-can-only-blame-themselves/#comment-6230 @ GAVIN, man you guys are saw losers. Everything would have been fine if that result was a draw at least. But then the Boks dramatically stole it after 80. This is rugby people will be injured, that the the game, and with injuries I don't mean taking out each others eyes like Schalk. In this context he deserves to be suspended for six months not a couple of weeks. I think the LIONS and their supporters need to realise that they have a mediocre team, they lost two tests against a lacking BOK team. You don't want to catch the BOKS in form, that will give you an even better reason not to come back to South Africa. But we are Africans and we always want you to come back even when things don't always go your or our way. @ GAVIN, man you guys are saw losers.

Come Saturday, the same thugging brute will do it again. vanhunks Oh, Gavin, the smartest thugging brute in Springbok rugby punted a 53m kick through the posts in the dying seconds of the game to win it for South Africa.

Maybe eye gouging is part of the game where the the vile De Villiers comes from but not in the real world. It quite obvious that he doesnt know the basics of rugby. I for one will never set foot in your lovely "rainbow nation" country.

Well done Brent. I have no idea why so many South Africans discredit a man whose track record is incredible. From junior world cups to a Lions tour. If he had lost the tour, people would call for his head. He wins it, and he gets no credit at all. Granted he has terrible skills in an interview, someone should suggest talking in his first language. But there is no taking away from his achievements. Back to your point, I am excited at how many attacking options we have, and how willing the players are to use them once they feel they have built a suitable platform.

Lets let him and the team (to go with their talents and experience) develop this total attack rugby and see how the rest of the rugby world wilts and wails as scores like lasts years 50+ against the Aussies become common.
