Huge rugby fan, love those classic All Black v Bok clashes, but I enjoy all rugby from around the world. Crusaders & Bok fan. (Also a bit of a Reds fan). I am a lover of test cricket, big time. Great respect for Australian sport, they always punch above their weight

England have become the most entertaining test side to watch. No matter who the opposition is. I’m impressed

Yup nuisance, I see Jansens brother got his first IPL contract now. Let’s hope he flourishes
FLEM’S VERDICT: Marnus' two sides of the coin - lucky with review but not so fortunate to get out in fading light
If Australia were sporting they would allocate Marnus’s scores to South Africa, just t try make a game of it. His 2 for 79 today could have been useful for SA

Australia could go with 2 batsmen and 9 quicks and still beat this SA squad

Everything about Rassie’s lions video was extremely honest. World Rugby seriously need to hire Rassie after the RWC23. Rassie should be their Director of Refereeing assessment panel

Rassie is a rugby man through and through. World Rugby should appoint as Director of rules & refereeing analysis. Full time appointment. It’s time to properly professionalise rugby refereeing

I find this article disturbing, suggesting that CA executives were the initiators of the deliberate tampering saga. Suggesting that Smith & Warner were perhaps victims of executive instructions?

'Fastest spell I've faced': Warner opens up on 'emotional toll' and the mindset change that led to Boxing Day breakthrough
South Africa won the battle of blood. Green out & Starc wounded. In spite of Australia employing external spider cam missile via a patriot operator. But Australia are winning the cricket battle hands down. Respect to Warner for an innings filled with grit

Whatever we think of Warner as a person or hardware shopper, he sure can bat and he is extremely gritty

Warner wins the war: Opener's epic double ton puts Aussies on top against Proteas to silence doubters
England must be happy. This will mean Warner keeps his place for another year of sub 30 scores

South Africa are really looking inept & scratchy at the moment. That said, cricket is a funny old game. Nothing a quick couple of hat tricks cannot resolve
Proteas need to 'look in the mirror' and it starts with their captain: Talking Points
What a good read. Warner should try retire from test cricket with dignity, before the ashes but continue as a T20 gun. With reference to the boxing day test, Theunis would be a good bet, let him replace Zondo who is not even an average first class player in SA.
FLEM'S VERDICT on Boland vs Hazlewood, Warner’s 100th, Warnie’s hat-trick and how to fix Proteas
Travis was most disappointing. As a Saffer supporter. Just kidding, ???? % agree, tough times bring out the best in tough people. Let’s hope proteas put up better batting in the boxing day match
FLEM'S VERDICT: Warner needs runs to save Test career, Head's on fire, Gabba pitch more grass than class
Australia should drop Cummins & Head, just to try even up the contest a bit
FLEM'S VERDICT: Warner needs runs to save Test career, Head's on fire, Gabba pitch more grass than class
Elgar must not moan about the pitch, Australia played on the same track. I was disappointed by the South Africa’s lack of pluckiness, especially under Elgar
REPORT: 'They want to watch for five days' - Elgar slams Gabba pitch as Aussies ensure 91-year first after Proteas collapse
Excellent read. Head is remarkable. SA need to stop this nonsense of selecting players like Khaya Zondo when we have actual batsmen at home. How many passengers must the team carry?
FLEM'S VERDICT: Herculean Head worthy of Gilchrist comparisons... but don't count out South Africa just yet
Rassie is a rugby genius, lining up his second world cup and the Boks 4th. (Subject to impartial refereeing of course)

Greysy, Never a recommendation to be a happy loser. Especially not in professional sport.

Agreed Geoff, I’m not suggesting winning a RWC is easy, but Aus have a great draw, they know they can beat Argentina because they did it this year. England really looked very poor this weekend, they are definitely beatable. So I’m putting my sidebet on Australia. (If Quade is there), South Africa, New Zealand & Ireland are my other 3. The boks won’t lose a q final against France, but if the Boks meet NZ in that Q final, I reckon they will battle. (The boks). So my prediction for Semis are NZ or Ireland versus Australia and SA versus England
The Wrap: Resurgent Wallabies lay down a marker for the World Cup’s 'group of life'
England are the better team, they were unlucky with the weather. But they are so entertaining.
