Just an update:
Yesterday the Sports Minister, Mr. Fikile Mbalula, had a meeting with 3 minority group factions to discuss the whole Quota system and why it should not be implemented. One of these factions was Afriforum.
The decision was taken that the quota system will not be enforced onto anyone. There was also a petition given to Mr. Mbalula along with a promise to fight this matter in the courts if it is ever to be enforced.
Great news for sport lovers!!
Good news, yeah!! C'mon Afrikaners!
I'd also add one of the factors that black Africans don't identify with or participate in rugby is that they are on average of smaller stature than whites, and especially Afrikaners.
Even the whites with a historically English heritage don't match up with Afrikaners.
Honestly it's the bloody truth, I bet if you search the entire country and got the biggest and toughest blacks together, rugby playing or not, they will barely much up physically with a regional Free State team.
Yeah, I know. In Argentina is the same situation, you should read this:
