Looking at the overall rugby picture the friendly islands have a slight edge over you Bean Brain....i'm sure you can do better than that if you try a bit harder mate...

So in summary Bean Brain, that does not paint a very good picture for SA....As opposed to Fiji not even being on the radar, you ended up 10th best in the world and Fiji is better than you at rugby,,,sorry about the bad news buddy...make it yr new years resolution to beat the Fijians perhaps ...we face the Fijians in pool play today in SA so would'nt be suprised if they take us out...don't underestimate them as like Samoa if yr not careful they will kick yr butt...

Bryce, there is something you need to get in your scull. SA does not play league. We do not discuss it and we don't give a damn, even if we should rank last in the world. How high is New Zealand in the jukskei world rankings? We beat you guys in that and koedoedrolspoeg, but I will conceded that you lot are better sheep shearers. So PULEEZ stop bleating about  league, you can have that.

Whats yr yarpy dung eating folk games got to do with rugby i don't know...You mean whites or blacks?...Everyones talking about the Falaus and the SBWs...theyre the stars of rugby these days and they're league players...it's THE game...lots of big hits...smash em bro...you yarpies need to get with the programme..

Whats yr yarpy dung eating (its actually not a japie thing) folk games got to do with rugby i don't know...You mean whites or blacks?.(I did not refer to race or color, but NZ and I don't actually think that NZ participated in jukskei and kds, I just tried to get the point across that in SA league is as insignificant as those 2 sports are over here and I suppose in NZ as well)..Everyones talking about the Falaus and the SBWs...theyre the stars of rugby these days and they're league players...it's THE game...lots of big hits...smash em bro...you yarpies need to get with the programme..

So yr abit slow on the uptake of league but with yr mass exodus of yokels to NZ and Oz and the UK it's only a matter of time...

Bean Brain like i was saying yr number 10 in world rugby and NZ is number 1 which means we must be 10 times better than SA at rugby ...makes perfect sense...Brycy on to it with all things rugby...

So yr abit slow on the uptake of league (no, not slow, we decided a long time ago that we hate league and we are content with that. League is not what we call rugby, and the IRB seems to agree) but with yr mass exodus of yokels to NZ and Oz and the UK it's only a matter of time...

Bean Brain(Talking to me?, doesn't matter if you are, but why the constant insults? Got an inferiority complex or are you compensating for something?) like i was saying yr number 10 in world rugby and NZ is number 1 which means we must be 10 times better than SA at rugby ...makes perfect sense...Brycy on to it with all things rugby...

Last I checked we were no 2 in Rugby and the only team I recall in recent history to whitewash you lot 3 - zip in one year. We have 2 players who scored a hat-trick of tries against you lot, yet you were unable to return the favor in more than a hundred years. NZ is and has been at the top for 20 odd years, but by a small margin most of the time. Don't get ahead of yourself.

Private  fishing trip ???

Hey brycy thanks for all the colourful flags etc. It brightened up the board and we all had a good laugh at you analysis of respective rugby strengths.

Draad never mind brycy he means well but goes badly astray at times!

...Bean Brain, we're all having a good laugh at yr 10th placing in world rugby...anytime you want a rugby lesson just ask the kiwis...

Brycy I have to confess we would have been lost without you on this topic. Who would have thought Fiji were such a super power and SA so weak!

I truly think you are the only peroson on the planet realising all this. Bwahahhahahaha.

Nice try at a wind up brycy but effective windups have to have a reasonably solid basis! 

Fiji, the friendly islands and a great rugby nation.... currently in the path of cyclone Evan that devastated Samoa so all the best my friends ....
