[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 467663, member: 40658"] I have always had sympathy for the All Blacks after the 2007 debacle with Wayne Barnes, and believe me, us South Africans have on countless times been on the receiving end of bad calls going against us. The QF was just another one to add on our list. I can see now what Sam Owen meant by me having some sort of hatred towards Bryce Lawrence, as to my other thread I started about him. in this case though, it was merely the fact that I was on Sport24's website immediately when they posted the article, and I knew nobody else would do it as soon as i could. I did find it funny, but I can see that some NZ fans would take it as distasteful. But what we all must realize is that these types of articles are for sensation, to get attention, and for that, this journo did a great job. I guess he falls along with Bryce in the category of love him or hate him, he's here to stay. As for the wife-beater saying, well that was a joke, what happened to good old disses? it happens on the rugby/cricket/soccer field as well as in your local bar, even on the bloody airplane. but clearly the sense of humour is different from person to person. glad to see everyone to be calm and still commenting. P.S. next year is the end of Pieter De Villiers (not the coach, the guy who got a couple of slaps from Richie Mccaw) ban from rugby stadiums... just a thought... [/QUOTE]
