Re: South Africa Senior Discussion

The seniors look to have struck some good form this tour. Good luck against Scotland.

Re: South Africa Senior Discussion
today is a big game, scotland happen to also be a team we need to lose to have a better hope of qualifying in the WC too
a win today secures promotion which would also all but secure said world cup spot, regardless of how tour 3 goes (well its possible we need to atleast snag 1 Win)
a loss today and we likely go into tour 3 needing atleast 3 wins but quite possibly 4 wins to qualify. needless to say, today is a big game for my tenure, last 2 tours have so far seen us go 7 wins 2 losses but it kinda all comes down to today and scotland is a very tough opponent (realistically been a battle of 3 teams all tour with canada included)

Wasn't a long shot, you just had to get the same or more wins than Zim
Unfortunately they got their act together for a change and won all 5

Re: South Africa Senior Discussion
first tour destroyed the campaign really, after 1 tour, we were on 0 points, to come back from that and win 10 of the next 15 games was a good effort but we lost at the start
while disappointed to not be able to participate in the world cup, i did achieve the 2 goals i wanted most. i wanted to leave the next manager in a better position then i got the job in, we were in div 3 for both when i started, now in div 2 for both. narrowly missed promotion for div 1 OD twice but still, the next manager has a good foundation for the next 2 world cups
squad looks better for the next term too
thanks for the support over the time guys, i am gonna step away again for a few season and maybe come back with the U/19s in 5 or so seasons, i do think its better to have breaks in between, the nat scene was fresh to me again this time and it made it more enjoyable despite not getting to the WC in the end!
