[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 162781"] Right on the money there Schalk. That`s the one thing that irks me a bit- that Vic didn`t get the S14 player of the year award especially, as he was equally dominant in that particular competition. The major difference between `03 and `07, as you`ve pointed out, wasn`t really the quality of players. It was the quality of coaching. In `07, the Boks had a coach with a plan, with a vision, and most importantly, a bunch of blokes who would go to war for him, and for each other. In `03 we had Matfield, Botha, Burger, Smit, Smith, Fourie etc. Plus we had James, Montgomery and Du Randt available, although not selected. But we also had Kamp Staaldraad and Rudi fecking Straueli :wall: [/QUOTE]
