Heyneke Meyer – Skunk of SA Rugby?

I write this post today, 30 October 2015 before this evening’s play-off with Argentina. The reason is that irrespective of the outcome of this game, my opinion expressed in this post will not change.

Let us be honest and frank, Meyer got a raw deal from the supporters of rugby, those who do not support rugby, politicians, the Media and those who know nothing about rugby (politicians and Media) but tried to capitalize on some misfortunes of the Boks, like Cosatu Western Cape and De Villiers the previous Bok coach whose term as coach was a disaster!

Typical South African style, efforts were made to mix rugby with politics and racism. Remember the uproar  after the game where we lost against Argentina earlier this year? Where Cosatu Western Cape tried to make the political issue that 5 black players complained against Meyer for racism and not giving them ample play time? It was just a storm in a tea cup but Cosatu never have proven their allegations. Cowards?

Then the first game against Japan at RWC 2015? Where everyone wanted to crucify Meyer and wanted his blood? And then suddenly when the Boks advanced to the semi’s? The politicians and Cosatu’s big mouths were quiet.

This is rugby and if you do not understand it, shut up!!!  At the end of the day the All Blacks were just that little bit more lucky than the Boks – it did not mean the Boks were pathetic and Meyer useless. Shit happens! But remember what Hansen jokingly said in the week building up to the semi-final that he was glad that he did not need to choose a team on representativeness, only on merit! That is the joke of South Africa, merit is gone, only AA, BEE and representation! A farce!

Now, after the semi we lost, the clevers now say Meyer must go! Kak, man kak! Some even say we must now get a coach from outside SA. Kak man, kak! Which international coach will want to coach a team where he must work on AA, BEE and representation? Only a fool! And then he has to contend with political and labour interference? Kak man kak!!

But, whatever the politicians will do with rugby, Meyer is not the skunk of SA Rugby. He did his best and if I were him, I would show them the middle finger and go coaching abroad.

Well done Meyer!

The Real Reason for the Students’ Fees Must Fall Revolt of 2015

To start with, I do not call them students because they do not deserve it. They are not students, they are hooligans and thugs. Because they did not act like students!

The entire 2015 these hooligans and thugs fabricated excuses not to study but rather to show that they are indeed hooligans and thugs.

There were the various incidents of marches and toi-toi’s against so-called racism on campuses, against Afrikaans, against monuments and statutes of the so-called white imperialists. You name it and they found a reason to break, destroy, burn and just to show us that they are indeed hooligans and thugs.

Then as the end of the academic year was upon the thugs and hooligans some of them realised they spent more time outside the classrooms that they got too far behind to salvage lost time – they would never pass the year-end exams.

So, what happened? Yes, they went to the streets again, this time to burn, destroy, break and just to be hooligans and thugs in the name of ‘no fee increases for 2016’ and ‘free tuition’. So, they knew that they would not pass 2015 but now they had the excuses they were revolting against fee increases and for free education.

And, now they would demand that all of them must be credited for the subjects of 2015.

And we know what will happen if universities do not comply . . . . . they will start 2016 academic year with a revolt!!

And the joke of the revolts of 2015 is that the Media and the DA supported these hooligans in their ‘noble’ quest for justice whilst the EFF actually was fuelling the revolts!

Yes, this is the South Africa we can be proud of?????
