[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 769254, member: 40658"] Which South Africans are whinging about not playing in the first 2 tournaments?? But Smartcooky, I don't think it was that easy to just get invited, due to the international sanctions imposed on South Africa at that time, I doubt that if we were invited, that we would've gone as it would just have escalated the problems we were having at homing on an international front. And in any case, I don't think that we would've won those first 2 tournaments, we might've come close with guys like Naas Botha captaining the side, but it's merely speculation. All we say is that we have had a pretty good run in the World Cup since we participated, and that we have been more successful that the other nations in 2 less tournaments than them. [/QUOTE]
