[QUOTE="Sailor Pete, post: 819811, member: 74448"] Guys, you can bemoan into our quota dilemma as much as you like, but its not the reason we're in the trouble we're in. I see the cause of our poor performance as such: 1. No continuity at coaching level. 2. We hang onto out of form and aging players for way too long. 3. We play our fit players to destruction. 4. We have no succession plan. 5. We have no game plan. 6. Our ball skills are shocking. 7. We kick when we should run. 8. We run when we should kick. 9. We allow the opposition too much room. 10. Our scrumhalves talk too much 11. We recycle the ball slower that a slow motion reply of a chess move 12. With the exception of the Lions our domestic sides are rubbish 13. I can't think of one current Springbok who'd make it into the current All Black side I'll stop there before I break anything..;) If I had to nail it though, I'd have to lay the blame squarely at the feet of our national & provincial coaching staff and administrators. The government are only pouring salt into an already gaping wound... [/QUOTE]
