What’s Going With SARU and Peter De Villiers?
The South African Rugby Union makes me truly sick with their internal politics.
What did Peter de Villiers do wrong other than say he was voting ANC and defending his players?
One would think the man had committed treason the way SARU carries on.
Let him coach the Springboks and either get someone else to deal with the media or leave him alone.
His team is winning, isn’t it?
They are doing the exact same thing they did with two other winning coaches – Nick Mallet and World Cup winning coach Jake White.
For no reason whatsoever someone in SARU gets a bee in their bonnet and next thing you know, the coach is out the door.
It’s like someone in SARU doesn’t want the Springboks to succeed.
And Oregan Hoskins is a fool – if nothing else. He is pretty much like Cricket SA’s own window dressing CEO Gerald Majola. Useless!
Everyone knew of Peter de Villiers’ colourful ways before he was employed as Springbok coach.
He was interviewed by a panel who must have heard the way he speaks. And the majority of people on that panel must have agreed to employ him.
So what’s the problem now?
Does SARU want their coaches to be puppets without their own opinions?
