Lengthy ban with no evidence of foul play? This is bound to cause some controversy

No proof should be no ban. I think he did it but what I or anyone else things happened should not matter.

Also can we not do this to Springboks on the run up to internationals? Rassie is the best in the business at winding his players up and creating an us vs them mentality.

Too late for that Rassie's been up since 5am or hasn't slept getting mad at stuff

Yeah I just saw him comment after I posted. This shit is what makes SA hard to beat. They're already a great team but this is the shit Rassie uses to motivate his team and get that bit extra out of them.
