Blame the coach

If the British and Irish Lions tour has taught us anything, it is that the Springboks are such a talented group of individuals that they are winning despite our coach.

Peter de Villiers has made it patently clear during the tour that he is out of his depth.
His selections and tactics have been left wanting and his stubborn, egotistical attitude does not allow him to admit when he is wrong.

De Villiers would probably label me a racist for airing my opinions, as he did those who criticised his selection of Ricky Januarie, but it is exactly that laager mentality that is doing harm to the fortunes of what is arguably the greatest Springbok team ever assembled.
