I feel sorry for Jon Smit. He has had to become quite the diplomat in order to cover the senseless drivel from his coach. He was interviewed and asked about his coaches remarks. He did well in cover. His defense off the field is good - let's hope it is shaken on the field.

Now that is funny Gale. What is the average age of the BOKs. They will probably still be there for the WC - the players that is - but some of them will have some hard yards on their bodies and their age by that time. That should also help - so help me, the ABs need all the advantages they can get when it comes to the WC.

I reckon the ploy is a reverse psychology: AB are going to feel so sorry for Boks having to put up with a raving lunatic as their coach that they'll go a bit easy on them. LOL!!!

Your onit Mel.
Teams should just start playing the media conferences as pre-match motivation. The idiot should know that a team fired up is seriously dangerous. hhhmmm

Keep him on though, we want this guy in charge of the boks for 2011, by then 3/4 of the team will be sick of him (if the aren't already)

AB's greatest motivation for a win this week in Hamilton is PETER DE VILLIERS.

"The Greatest team on earth" will be rated no 2 in the world if they loose in Hamilton. If they are so great why on earth would their no 1 standing be in jeopardy? Perhaps Mr PdV is a legend in his own mind.... The arrogance of the man defies belief. SA please muzzle this man!

Latest from Devillageidiot.

"I have dropped Fourie Du Preez to the bench and I will be taking the field as half back. In this way I can get close to the Ref and read his body language to get the evidence I so darely wish for to proove the entire reffereeing establishment is out to defeat the greatest team on earth"!

"I intend to be close enough to wipe the smirk off the refs face when he penalizes John for illegal scrumaging "

"Now excuse me I am off to get Fourie to teach me how to do those confounded boxs kicks, don't tell anyone my plan especially the infidels!"

No matter what kind of coach he is, his people skills off the field of play are lacking. He needs a PR officer and should never be allowed in front of a microphone. That being said, I still feel he must bring something to the coaching realm. A poor coach will achieve poor results and a good coach will achieve good results. He is achieving great results at the moment. If indeed he is a poor coach as reflected by his publically embarrassing statements, then the BOKS will implode before WC. Of course, that would be fine by me as it increases the ABs chances. So help me, the ABs need all the chances they can get during their nemesis - THE WORLD CUP. LOL

Zedds most of my K1 mates reckon DeIdiot is spot on. There's nothing there. Except perhaps 6 public libraries and an international airport (with no international flights). Riveting.

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
In another interview he has clearly done us a big favour by completely alienating the Hamilton crowd. Not only that he says that he wants to stay away from negative press. As a result the Boks will stay in Queensland until later in the week before traveling to NZ. This is a bit annoying for the locals as the kids love to get a chance to see the Boks and get some autographs etc. The man needs to give it a rest and get on with promoting the game. A game which has been sold out for weeks.

The Kiwi supporters respect the Boks as there biggest challenge love to get a chance to see them around town etc, and he has just gone some way to destroying that respect.

He obviously doesn't read the Aussie press because guys like Spiro Zavros lambast him and the Boks at every opportunity.

As a result I expect the Crowd to be merciless with the Boks and add another dimension to the Allblacks game.

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
I take your point Mex,

but it's hard to be one thing in public and another on the coaching field.

Just ask yourself: "If I were in that team and he were my coach, how would I feel about him saying stuff like that?"

The guy has limited ability and has been provided a lot of quality support in the coaching and senior playing ranks. I hesitate to guess that's why the Bok team is aging as well. They need Smit, Matfield, du Preez & de Villiers to lead the team - on the field and off.

Bok, I really feel for you man...

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
Regardless of what type of coach he is and whether he was a political apointee or not, he sure lacks good judgement. He reinforces the strong sentiment against him by his rediculous allegations. What a sore looser. I hope that the BOKS get thrashed on Saturday by the ABs. I hope it is by 4 tries and that the ABs get the bonus point. If the WALs were up for the win for the tri nations, I would hope they would also thrash the BOKs. The BOKs are a worthy adversary, but their coach brings out the worst in all of us by his outspoken drivel.

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
Now that I have said that, I just read the interview with him where he stated that the referrees conspired against the BOKS to bring them down to the level of the teams that they were playing against. He offered as evidence their body language. I can understand the passion this guy engenders against himself. He really takes the cake for saying the dumbest/stupidest things that I have ever heard and international rugby coach say. If what he is saying is true, then the ABs have consistently had referring conspire against them for decades because they have been consistently rated as the no 1 team more than any other. Of course, I don't believe that and neither should Mr PdV. He truly needs to be censored by his own rugby board. Such an outlandish statement is worthy of being fined. If he continues to say such outlandish statements, he needs to be removed. He brings the game into disrepute with such statements. I also noticed he only makes such statements after he has lost..... Maybe he needs to learn sportsmanship and state that the BOKs were beaten by a better team on the day.

I guess what I am saying, is that people are being too hard on the guy. I hate what he says at times but he is getting the results where it counts.

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
Even if all you say is true Gale, there is one question that begs answering. I am a firm believer that a team will fair better with a great coach. This being said, how do the BOKs have a number 1 rating in the world if PdV can't coach. My suggestion is this: perhaps in front of a microphone he suffers from foot in mouth but on the coaching field he does a good job. If he was such an idiot, surely you would see a revolt from amongst the players and certainly you would not see the results that the BOKs are achieving at the moment.

Re:Who will devillageidiot whine to now? Reply to this message
PdV had many established white rugby coaches doing much of his work for much of his time as an 'apprentice'.

But it's not the fact that they are white that is key, it's the fact that they are great rugby coaches who were there to make him look good. instead of picking a group of bright, black potential coaches, the officials picked an idiot whom I imagine they thought they could control. And they sacked the most successful coach in the world at the time - Jake White - on the way to their political ambition.

Well, it looks like it's taking shape: SA may have hit their rugby pinnacle, having replaced a union stronghold with a house of cards that appears perilously close to falling apart. I hope someone with some ballscan get in there and pull it together.

Yes the Boks are, deservedly the No 1 side in the world at the moment.
BUT this guy really is a tosser! How can someone so brainless successfully coach a rugby side (or do anything else for that matter)?
The press must just love him, he makes Wilson Tuckey sound thoughtful and considered!

Devillage idiot is at it again.

People don't want to see other teams being successful. That is my biggest problem at the moment," he was reported as saying on South Africa rugby website keo.co.za.

"We can't go public about certain things because we don't have all the evidence, but the body language of certain officials when things went against us in that game (Brisbane) made us worry.

"The officials were so happy when decisions went against us on the day. I am talking about the No 1 rugby team in the world. Shouldn't they really get the other guys to that level?

"Or do they want to break things down so that the game can become mediocre and everyone has a chance to win it?"

Body language? Don't have all the evidence? What a knob.
