Is there a rugby purist in the house who missed the AB's v Boks test on Saturday. That is the best test I have ever watched in my life (I have never missed an AB, SpringBok or Ausi test since 1995).
If you missed, please make a point of watching the repeats during the week. I can bet SS will be showing it atleast on a daily basis.
That is the best rugby game ever played. The spectacle of the day was that 747 that flew just above the stadi with the words "go springbooks" written on it...Amazing... With all due respect the greatest game for has got to be the 2011 final between AB & France to any die hard purist. The first scrum down was at minute 18 whereas the first line out was at minute 22 or thereabouts. It was a flawless game of razor thin margins and no errors. Last week's test Springboks were to careless with ball and missed too many tackles. Other than the scoring the game was not as demanding to ABs.

Evidently we are missing Chris Brown thoroughly, the one guy I had wished would be hired by NOCK for all teams because he would significantly improve our fortunes across all team sports starting with Harrambee stars, women volleyball, hockey etc. Team sports at global elite level is about conditioning and then the coach. You can have the best coach but minus conditioning you become average. Over the weekend it was very obvious Chris B needs to be recalled. We were getting walloped zero scores largely because of inability to tackle and defend well which has a direct correlation to lack of conditioning. You notice the only serious tackles were put in by players in last year's team, debutants lacked the conditioning and at elite level top teams can pick that from your first game on day 1 long before your get to play them.

They need mental strength to overcome some of this teams. actually for me that is not the issue. we have beaten each of those teams. (except SA i think). the problem is a game plan problem and a tackling problem. when we meet NZ - we need to change our tact (last year we beat them at home kwao) and beat Australia kwao. what we need is to have a game for a team. our style of rugby works against northern hemisphere teams - karibu zote. however we need to study and ask ourselves... which teams beat the teams that beat us. Wales for example beats fiji properly! kwanza vizuri sana sometimes. when we meet wales we beat them and when we meet fiji they beat us - its all in the style of play. have a game plan for a team. did you notice that we kept the ball more when we started taking contact against fiji? on defense... ensure that you force breakdowns on fiji... fiji thrives with ball on hand phase after phase after phase. take the game to them... tackle and ensure that there are rucks on every phase and if we use people like big wheels vizuri we shall win. its all about modelling our attacks and defense as to suit the team we are playing.

The margin of loss was too appalling. When Fiji has walloped this fat they have gone on to win the main cup, here we were going through a tormenting crucifixion at plate final suggesting this Fiji team is not up there with the rest. It also goes without saying this first leg was a tard below previous year standards. The AB team is very new and wiped the turf with all the other teams which doesn't happen often in the first few legs after the have tinkered with the team.

Fiji was knocked out of the Main Cup by the eventual winners NZ so you can't simply say that they are not up there with the rest! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

Bear in mind we rarely play fiji and contest with Inglaterra is has been very close statistically. Our guys are not looking very conditioned especially the new caps.

Interesting career choice. Hope shukua deosn't suffer a brain explosion and stuff him up somewhere down the line.
Good thing though all Treu's teams are very conditioned and very speedy. I see us within a short time becoming top 3 and eventually dorminating last few legs of this season's circuit and 2015 circuit.
Treu's philosophy and attention to detail is will change how we play 7's. His set up is a case study for all team sports in this country including our volleyball girls, Cricket team and harrambee stars. Hope Okinyi will think ahead and go do a shadow show on him Kenyans would be amazed at how detailed he prepares which is what kina Tietjens do. My problem with Friday his Rugby philosophy was not using our natural play styles. We are more agile and prefer speed rather than bondonaing all day long like the English.
