If the best of six nations can’t get past semi finals at the World Cup then…..
it's the history. Most English fans don't remember John Pullin as captain. He's a hero in Ireland. in 1973 He insisted on Leading England to play in Ireland when the scots and welsh refused to travel the year before due to the endless bombs during the troubles. Absolute legend.
just one of the stories over the 100 year history.
Is this ai?
Yes

I’m amazed by the obsession southern hemisphere teams have with European rugby. Not only do we have to endure the lingering cultural undertones of South African apartheid in the European Championship, but now we’re supposed to care what Goebbels thinks about Dupont?
Rugby in the southern hemisphere feels like a completely different sport. Their best teams have been consistently humiliated in the Heineken Cup, and then in the Investec Cup - that alone exposes the lack of depth at club level. Instead of fostering a genuine rugby culture, international players there seem to spend the year waiting for the latest rule changes they requested from World Rugby so they can exploit them. The corruption is absolutely endemic!
In the northern hemisphere, referees don’t side with the highest bidder. We don’t stoop to poisoning opponents’ drinks, propping up our teams with racism and bigotry, or worshipping corruption and foul play. We just play a lot of rugby, and we do it with integrity.
Sounds like you need a few corrections there Jorge. Specifically regarding depth and strength. As you’ll know when you look at your European club team sheet and the preponderance of foreign surnames from SA as well as the South Pacific. Not one of the SA teams has the convenience of picking teams from SA’s entire talent pool, because so many of them play their rugby for your European clubs. As well as Japan. Not only that, at the moment, SA doesn’t have the convenience of an off season. So their only option is to give their internationals a break. Which is never long enough to be counted as an off season for low intensity strength and conditioning training. In addition, they play the bulk of the URC in summer conditions, with intermittent week long trips to your much more severe winters and heavier fields. So your argument is actually a testament to their depth and player management. The fact that they can win successfully compete at world cups and in the Champions cup shows that their depth, training and management are second to none. And I mean none.
Also, we are not obsessed with NH rugby. I cannot remember the last time I watched a 6 nations game. Why? Because for the most part they are dour boring affairs. Your comments about cheating, poisoning and bribing only reflects your personal bias and one eyed views. Even this “ interview” sounds like a talk manufactured in an advertising agency trying to promote the 6 nations rather than two informed rugby people having a chat. The Super Bowl? The World Series? Pfft. Not worth watching either.
@ The inclusion of South Africa in the European Cup and the constant rebranding might seem like a natural political move for South Africa, but let’s be honest-it’s a pretty exotic take on geography.
The real issue isn’t geography, though. It’s the rubbish we’ve been dealing with: rotten culture, terrible games, and the same tired, ridiculous excuses. And now you’re questioning the presence of “Southern Hemisphere names” in European teams? Seriously? Did we abduct anyone? Players are free to play wherever they want-it’s called free choice, mate.
But let’s not stop there. Let’s talk about your names and the dark history behind them. The only reason we’re having this back-and-forth is the same reason we have to sit through Israel competing in Eurovision-it’s all part of the rainbow nation PR spin so you can keep looting while pretending it’s all about unity. And now you’ve got the nerve to blame us for “stealing” your players? Don’t forget the absolute pearler of an excuse-“the grass is heavy”-as if that’s why you’ve been a joke since this circus started three years ago.
And let’s talk travel. You’re moaning about flying to Europe? Meanwhile, our teams have to trek all the way to South Africa, and you think you’ve got it rough? By your logic, the climatic challenges are tenfold for us! Maybe it’s time to take a long, hard look in the mirror and find some self-awareness, eh?
Interesting that these 2 (Ai?) commentators completely avoid the greatest rivalry in rugby… and it’s over a century old: Springboks vs All Blacks.
