Shebeen Posted May 23, 2013 Share I am by no means a soccer fan, but there is like 5 rules in the game. They are unambiguous. They dont even need teleivision refs. The game flows. I can get so frustrated wathing rugby sometimesbad example...soccer needs a serious shake-up. referee gets treated like total dogsh1t.I really love the way that players try and convince a ref to change his original decision. they put so much passion and energy into it, with 0.00001% of successfully getting him to reverse the call. they have NO decided to bring in tv ref of sorts with goal line technology. problem is they actually need to use it to police simulation. soccer they encourage you to cheat/lie with zero consequences.

Andrew Steer Posted May 23, 2013 Share Still no Brussow? I'm starting to think there must be something else at play here (like something of a private/personal nature). Players invited to the second Springbok training camp of 2013: Forwards (19):Tendai Mtawarira, Trevor Nyakane, Jannie du Plessis, Coenie Oosthuizen, Wiehahn Herbst, Adriaan Strauss, Bismarck du Plessis, Chiliboy Ralepelle, Eben Etzebeth, Flip van der Merwe, Juandré Kruger, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Siya Kolisi, Marcell Coetzee, Willem Alberts, Arno Botha, Lappies Labuschagne, Pierre Spies, Ryan KankowskiBacks (19):Jano Vermaak, Francois Hougaard, Pat Lambie, Morné Steyn, Elton Jantjies, Demetri Catrakilis, Jean de Villiers, Juan de Jongh, Jan Serfontein, Robert Ebersohn, JJ Engelbrecht, Bryan Habana, Lwazi Mvovo, Raymond Rhule, Lionel Mapoe, Bjorn Basson, Gio Aplon, Zane Kirchner, Willie le RouxThat forward pack is screaming out for Brussouw! WTF are Kanko, Kirchner and Mapoe doing there! And it's really sad when just about the best player in the backline is 20yrs old... that is til our coaches get ahold of him of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking about the game - not the way those overpaid prima donnas behave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems so obvious to me. Before the referee awards a penalty go to a replay. If it turns out the playing was diving he gets a red card. Nobody will dive under those rules.

Shebeen Posted May 23, 2013 Share I've heard rumours it has more to do with off field performance than on field ... Pure speculation, of course.Didn't stop kanko getting in. a fit brussouw should ALWAYS be in the match 22 fabes and Andrew Steer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flymango Posted May 23, 2013 Share Didn't stop kanko getting in. a fit brussouw should ALWAYS be in the match 22 Dunno what Kanko did but in Brussow's case the rumour has it it's a bit too close to Heynecke's home. But please - PURE speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted May 23, 2013 Share That has nothing to do with the fact that the rules are simple and unambiguous. I am talking about the game - not the way those overpaid prima donnas behave. fair enough, but the games are totally different. rugby league would be a better example - it was designed to avoid all the *** that slows rugby down. i do agree with you, i gave up knowing the rules properly a few years back as it's just too confusing It seems so obvious to me. Before the referee awards a penalty go to a replay. If it turns out the playing was diving he gets a red card. Nobody will dive under those rules.I think 3 month ban, or maybe community service. make those prima donnas go wash toilets at prisons . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
