    He has been using lights for probably 10 years now. When you have a specific instruction as coach for example that he definitely wants you to kick for posts, and it’s one colour. If he definitely want you to scrum another. Quick and easy.

    Works a treat at under 12s.

    @Bones use that a bit at free State then down at the stormers and then nothing for awhile again. Not sure where the plan started or even how well it works. He seems to be using it sporadically Pretty sure it’s not every single decision that requires a light. But I guess his ass is on the line as coach as well so if he really feels they need to do something then you get... The light...😂

        If the Boks don’t win this and win comfortably, I will be very surprised. If they are able to create any sort of space, they actually have the width game to make England pay on the scoreboard.

        If England can control the pace, they might keep it close.

        England have always been my second side, so I’ll be cheering for them, but I am feeling not so optimistic about their ability to stop the wave.

              @Bones quite a lot wrong with the game. Things like this seem quite low level in comparison. Obviously hoping for a Bok win tonight but I’m nervous. I loved him as a player and now as the coach I can honestly say I like him more than I worry about him. Smart human being. Outside of rugby I think he looks like a lot of fun too. Genuinely likeable . Hoping to see you guys in the final🤞🏻

                Can’t remember feeling this sick / flat about an England game, maybe because I’m worried how embarrassed we might be. The lack of England shirts on the train platform probably says I’m not alone. Genuinely considering watching Strictly Come Dancing instead

                                        Apparently the crowd booing the officials as they came out of the tunnel to warm up. Seems the French are not over BOKs performance last week.

                                          England really should have Rule Britannia as their national anthem.
