The Springbok Women took a squad with no less than 12 uncapped players to Madagascar, and were crowned champions of Africa for the fourth time πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦πŸ’šπŸ’›

Desiderium is such a great word

Some big losses here. I'm especially sad to see Ntuthuko and James leaving πŸ’”

Always πŸ–€πŸ€ Not to be for my Sharks, but I'm still immensely proud of them for the incredible turnaround this season. Well done, Bulls. You know what you need to do next week.

Peanut brittle cheesecake. Thatisall.

Tomorrow, my fave, Lukhanyo, earns his 100th cap for the Sharks in international competitions. A great achievement for an exceptional player! So here's a little throwback to the moment in 2017 I just knew - I think this was only his second Super Rugby game for the Sharks πŸ–€πŸ€

Sunday afternoon at The Troyeville

On this day last year, the Sharks won the Challenge Cup (and Bongi celebrated πŸ˜‚) πŸ–€πŸ€

Imagine trying to reason with a psychotic toddler while you're jetlagged. The horrors.

The Sharks end third on the log. Home QF. Winners of the SA Shield. Most fans would be thrilled. But there's SO much negativity. I get it. They're "underperforming" given the talent at their disposal. It's still a great position to be in. Worth celebrating. And when you compare it to last year...

Sometimes the void stares back...

These guys ❀️

Game day!! And the greatest team release sheet ever πŸ˜‚πŸ–€πŸ€

Some colour combos just prompt a random photo

A fantastic win to mark Nolusindiso Booi's 50th cap on Saturday! For context, the Bok Women haven't even played 100 Tests since their inception, so to have a player reach 50 caps is pretty damn special.

New Weekend Post-Mortem! @haribaldijones.bsky.social joins us from the beautiful counties of Munster, as he & @bmcsport.bsky.social get their heads around a weekend of close contests, surprise wins and pure extra time mayhem! Pod out soon, on the 8/9 YouTube now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN4y...

Game day! Can the Bok Women extend their current winning streak over Spain to six games? Should be a great Test, and extra special to see Nolusindiso Booi become the first SA women's player to get her 50th cap πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦πŸ’šπŸ’›

My latest piece for the Rugby Punt-it. It's time for World Rugby to send the 20-minute red card to the bin. Permanently.

Powerful insights into the impacts of the dismantling of USAID - not just on the global recipients of aid, but on the American people these funding cuts are supposedly benefitting... youtu.be/hcvWU6gYpY4?...
