[QUOTE="unrated, post: 873845, member: 45773"] The difference is that Heyneke Meyer actually got the results despite the public campaign against him claiming he used outdated tactics and just wanted to play "stampkar" rugby like many people liked to rant about. But we played some of our best rugby under him. Closely fought the All Blacks. That one game at Ellis park under HM vs the ABs was rated as one of the best games ever. The ref could not even Keep up with the intensity. HM despite his faults was a man with a clear ideology of what it takes to win. Yes he picked players that might have been past their prime but I don't blame him as many coaches worldwide emphasize the importance of experience in the team and if he did not use the vast amount of experience available to him at the time he would have been criticized for throwing away the full potential of our golden generation. When he was the coach of the Bulls he picked up a team out of the despair that they were in at the time and made them Super rugby winners. Frans ludeke rode the platform of success that was created by HM but that could not last and now without him they are simply where they were before HM came. AC is much worse than HM. [/QUOTE]
