[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1052047, member: 55747"] Two points. First. The fact that there are alternatives doesn't mean what he did was wrong. If he did something 'wrong' that necessarily means there has to be a rule against what he did. What rules is that. Second, neither Rassie nor anyone is getting answers through those proper channels. 'Proper channels' appears to be an euphemism for 'lets keep disagreements and explanations behind close doors so nothing really changes'. No thanks. In fact, the reason he has a lot of support is precise because he is making things public. **** committees, tribunals, close door meetings, the lot. We want answers and if we dont get them, at least we get someone who at the very least places the spotlight on those who should provide us with answers and do not deliver. Again, i understand the bias people from W/E/S & I have here as this affects the tour, but please, think for one second and ask yourselves, why does his message resonate so strongly with people who have no skin in the game? It is because he raises questions we all have and we are tired of not getting answers. It is that simple. his form is poor, his timing appalling, but the substance is strong. Again, world-cup winning coach saying out loud 'i do not understand the rules'. Neither do i. That's why i like his rant. [/QUOTE]
