Well done to SA but ye were lucky. Why all the slagging of the British and Irish Lions anyhow? I am Irish and very proud of my roots but working in an industry that I meet a lot of South Africans, so why is it they are all apparently so proud but all fighting to get their British passport!!?. neptune");

Give Neptune the WARM KLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We trying to even out the other nationalities you have in your country, so you guys have a bigger population to choose “your” next National Rugby and Cricket teams!!!
Probably was a Saffer taxi driver wearing a scrum cap and Phillips got a little heated as he always does.
2 -1 leave it alone……….we finished with you lot from the North. We preparing for proper rugger now………..Tri-Nations!!!!

document.write("The winners are always lucky. What's new? @PJ45 - sorry to burst your bubble, but having lived in NZ and knowing a lot of Aussies, they talk about it all the time - that is that the real comp is in the Southern Hemisphere. As for me, I wish it were not the case, it makes for better viewing when the rivalry is superior. That's why it is always great to have the B&I Lions, that team at least arrives with depth and an ability to compete on the road. If the NH sent their full strength teams on tour maybe respect would increase just a little, but, FACT, as you may be aware some NH teams' tours have nearly been cancelled for lack of interest by the SH opposition and spectators - no more needs to said.. CP");
document.write("As for Phillips
");
document.write("...he is a dirty player and likes to throw in all the niggle. Go back to tapes of the midweek games and you can see him tramping on players lying on the ground unnescesarily, even the NH ref would be telling him to play \"the ball only.\" Conspicuously quiet during the tests until the Lions were up and away in the last. Maybe it was because Bakkies was not there.. CP ");
document.write("No. 9
");
document.write("Phillips would never make the Springbok team....maybe ballet or badminton..but not rugby. The so-called best of the Northern hemisphere??? Whatever, Mike Blair and Harry Ellis are way better, only reason he was picked was to create a decent combo with Stephen Jones (who was #### on tour). Ronan O Gara, as much as he is a ####, is a way better flyhalf. But hey, Geech went all Welsh, and it all went tits up.. Jakes mate");

document.write("Whatever he did doesn't matter, At least we have a law system in the NH,
Not like in the #### hole that is SA, A lawless corrupt society where the police will steal from you as what happened to nearly all the Lions fans who dared venture out into public.
Lets face it SA is the filthy #### stained shoe sole of the planet and its people just fragments of mashed in excrement.
Dont mock the NH I'm, sure we sponsor alot of your children so be nice . Mike Philips ");

document.write("....We Saffa's working in the UK pay for all your children, remember, you get paid for having 6 kids, and then they end up on the dole too, because jobs are too low-paying for them!
I've heard British colleagues insist certain jobs are below their kids without education or qualifications, say they're meant for Eastern Europeans! Now all the talk is of there being too many immigrants - taking our jobs...! You having a laugh mate!!
Ring a bell now!! - Talk about arrogance, its you lot that cannot see that your empire has fallen, your economies are in ruin, yet here you are rambling on about paying for our kids....?. UK Taxpayer");

document.write("To the British winning isn't everything. Yes it's great to win but like the lions for example, we know we could have won that test series 3-0. We didn't, but we are extremely proud of the guys. I wonder what the afrikaaner attitude towards their team would have been if the boks had lost? Again the reason winning means so much to you is that it makes you feel better about yourselves as then you can say you are better than someone else. Another classic sign of insecurity. We don't have to win anything to make ourselves feel better. Our forefathers done that for us. Just ask yourself what language this website is in and what language you are speaking.. PJ45");

What do you know about the difference between Afrikaans & English Saffas, huh?! I'm Afrikaans living in London. I have been to Ireland many times & YOU guys are the worst racists in the world,...I found myself defending black people in a supposedly free European country!!
You are also sorely mistaken - Most of my friends are Kiwis here & they all laugh about NH rugby. Have you forgotten so soon the 2005 Lions tour of NZ where the kiwis wanted to cancell future Lions tours due to the poor performance of NH teams.
PJ45 - you lost an ally by blindly attacking us Afrikaners without even knowing what you are talking about!!!
Reject!

Basically my point is, if you afrikaan guys could drop all your baggage and stop acting like complete d##ks over rugby and getting all nationalistic, then perhaps we could all get along better and appreciate great rugby and just worry about how much beer we can drink after the game. This is the best game in the world. Simple as that.. PJ45");

I do believe it was your union that invented the slave trade. But hey, your right, your forefathers did do it all for you. That actually sums up to a tee, the attitude of the UK youth these days. Couldn't be bothered to do a damn thing properly first time. But dont worry, im sure you will find someone or something else to blame....as usual.
