'Who gives a crap?' Animosity towards the Springboks is proof of their dominance

It's because in over 100 years of rugby, the NH has never been the top echelon of rugby. That stayed with the SH. They may have had some blips, but that's it. The ingrained jealousy and hatred is strong.

Always coming off 2nd best is a hard pill to swallow. Just as they think they finally took over, that the NH is the Kings of rugby, they found out the hard way that it was all just day dreaming.

9/10 WC trophies for the SH vs 1/10 for the SH. What makes it worse is that they SHOULD be on top considering how close and how many countries in Europe plays rugby. It's just across the road for them compared to the SH that have to travel very far to play against each other, nevermind the NH.

The logistics counts against the teams, which means teams have to leave earlier and stay longer in another country to acclimate. That means the cost for the Rugby Unions go up compared to the NH. Yet, they can't crack the SH. No matter how hard they try.

I'm not surprised they are so hateful and jealous towards the SH.

I've played for 2 decades and who I am has nothing to do with you. There is many good Scottish players. They will learn and benefit from the influx of foreign players. Where is that a bad thing?

Maybe you are jealous that foreign born players doesn't want to join your country where ever that is? Don't tell me where though. I really don't care.

5 capped players in England A squad v Australia A

they probablt didn't select him because he doesn't exist

there is a rugby player called Paul Brown-Bampoe, but I reckon he'll be behind George Hendy and Tobias Elliott in the pecking order. I'd have loved one of those to be picked ahead of the zionist on the left wing.

Why Australia won't see the best of Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii at centre

No please. Don’t get me wrong. I’m rather dependent on your articles. Keep me regular.

You can imagine it’s been a tough wait since your last article.

'Who gives a crap?' Animosity towards the Springboks is proof of their dominance

“Everyone’s against us!” And the team gets closer and more focused. Smart tactic, not really based in entirely in reality though. Springboks are well loved. (In Nz anyway).

Surprised Paul Brampton Brown isn't in there. I'm not sure why they insist on stringing Cadan Murley along, they're never going to pick him for England.

It's like the McCaw era of the ABs. Boks are a great team so people will always be trash talking them and making crap up to explain why they win. Some of the NH pundits are quite bitter eh.

That turkey has always flapped his gums. He did the same to the ABs. He just hates good SH teams as far as I can tell.

I do not understand this attitude at all. How is it not a good thing for Scotland to have players from overseas?

Players who might not get to play international rugby get a chance to do so.

Scotland get a higher standard of rugby, are better opposition that makes the games more competitive that means the sides Scotland play against have to get better…

See how this works?

Look at Jamison Gibson Park. We laughed our arses off in NZ when he first got picked for Ireland because he couldn’t even get a starting role in SR.

But he got an opportunity and became arguably the best half back in the game next to DuPont.

As for “they aren’t Scottish”, well humans have been migrating around the place for many thousands of years.

Get with the times.

Ever heard of sarcasm? Clearly you don't get it. So what if foreign born players plays for them? History won't say this player was born here and this one there etc. It will show their achievements as Scotland's. So what. Your English and spelling are really bad. Instead of trolling, maybe go back to school, learn how to speak and write and maybe then come and try again.

I think most of us kiwis have heaps of respect for the Boks.
