OK, so convincing wins for the Boks and ABs so called B teams in round one. Lots of first xv players rested. One player I'd like to see starting again is Damian McKenzie. He offers all of Mo'unga's playmaking, plus superior defence.

The Poopers.

Featuring

Pops Hooper as Overcooked - Too many miles on the clock
Baby Hooper as Underdone - He Came, he saw, he shat his pants.
Cooper as bright eyes - Roadkill struck by an eighteen-wheeler.

Narawa, too. Brilliant attacking players, but it's the anticipation and timing on defence that sets them apart.

Mate, laugh it up as much as you like. But having a choice between a shit national Rugby side or a backward nearly failed state I know which one I would take. The thing is we can improve our Rugby, SA on the other hand is fucked....

Hope you enjoy your Rugby. Your clock is ticking.....

SA is verging on it for all intents and purposes. They won't have a nation let alone a Rugby team in 10 years max, more like 5.

I always backed the 2 oopers. Always said the Ozzie's are crap without them. I was wrong, from oopers to poopers.

Lets have a little look at your situation.

Median Aus salary: AU$65,000 (US$45,000)
Median Aus house price: AU$657,000 (US$434,000)
Median apartment price in Sydney: AU$777,000 (US$995,000)
Median house price in Sydney: AU$1,230,500 (US$1,577,000)
Aus net migration: 200k-300k

The same as every Western country then, increasingly unaffordable for any average citizen, whilst also going through accelerated demographic change.

... Getting online to vent at the Saffas isn't going to help you pay your US$400k to US$1m mortgage, in an area that's rapidly becoming Beijing or Delhi. Any more than it's going to change the result of a rugby match.

Do you even live in SA or are you just another chicken runner who who bravely left the country that you so obviously love....

Why don't you do a statistical comparison between Australia and SA. The US wasn't in the conversation. Many South African s would give their left but to emigrate to OZ. Do you really think the opposite is true. Wonder why that is.....

I lot of people around here cover up a lot of derogatory and denigrating posts as 'banter'. They don't like it when it comes back the other way.....

If your parents decide to do stuff when you're not yet 18, you don't get any choice in the matter. Then when you are 18 it makes total sense to continue where you already have a life, until that becomes less good than moving elsewhere, which is a point I reached awhile ago.

The comparison is to US$ because it's the world's reserve currency, anyone can get an idea of value by looking at figures in US$. For any middle class Saffa it's going to be significantly cheaper living in SA compared to a Western country once housing is taken into account.

Keep telling yourself every Saffa wants to move to Oz. I certainly don't, it has basically the same problems as the UK in a worse geographic location, an economy that is strangely not that developed for a Western country (heavily dependant on resource extraction and agri), with massive economic dependence on China thrown into the bargain (way more than SA). Sounds not great. As for migration to Aus generally, you will become more like whoever is choosing to join you in paying US$500k+ mortgages (which to be fair is easier for a large multi generation family living under one roof).

Me contemplating a Westerner telling me SA has failed. Whilst everyone I know in my age bracket in SA is married and has started a family, none rent all own their home (some outright with no mortgage before they're 40), most live near their parents and grandparents in the places they grew up. Meanwhile in the UK this accounts for a small minority of the people I know, many are renting into their 30s with strangers, I know couples that want kids or more than one kid but cannot afford it, I also know this all applies to Aus.

But it's all good because he lives near a beach.
