Chilliboy Rallepelle? REALLY?

Site Author

Hooker Chilliboy Rallepelle proved every white, rugby-loving South African right with his dreadful play in the loss to the Lions. We all know he got included for his race, and who more racist then Peter DeVilliers right? Now, I am deffinitely not a racist, but I do hate people who are and it is seemingly obvious where Peter DeVilliers falls in in the racism category. People like Januarie, Ndungane, Jacobs, Nokwe and I'm sorry to say - Kirchner and Pietersen, all should not be in the team. You wonder who could replace them?
  • Ricky Januarie - Jano Vermaak
  • Odwa Ndungane - Akona Ndungane
  • Adrian Jacobs - Jaques Fourie (and Wynand Olivier on the bench)
  • Nokwe - Louis Ludik (thus moving Pietersen to bench)
  • Kirchner - Stefan Terblanche (He could still be good for about another year)

And Chilliboy Rallepelle?! And I think I'm the only person in the World that thinks this, but Bismarck Duplessis is really not that great. He takes forever to get in his throws, throws in skew at least once a game, knocks on at least once a game, and gives away more penalties than you can count. All of these he did today. What happened to CJ Van Der Linde? Put Beast and him at prop and Smit at hooker! The guys at New Zealand rugby agree that Derrick Kuun is a much better option than Rallepelle and also in my opinion, Bismarck.

A team without racism would look like this:

  1. Beast
  2. Smit
  3. CJ Van Der Linde
  4. Bakkies Botha
  5. Victor Matfield
  6. Heinrich Brussow (Schalk Burger is always injured, has a red card or is suspended so yes...)
  7. Juan Smith (Although maybe put Kankowski and try a Kankowkski/Spies partnership)
  8. Pierre Spies
  9. Fourie DuPreez
  10. Morne Steyn
  11. Bryan Habana
  12. Jean DeVilliers
  13. Jaques Fourie
  14. Louis Ludik
  15. Stefan Terblanche
  16. Derric Kuun
  17. Gurthro Steenkamp
  18. Andries Bekker
  19. Danie Rossouw
  20. Ryan Kankowski (Or Juan Smith)
  21. Jano Vermaak
  22. JP Pietersen
