EFF says that Springbok rugby is a symbol of white supremacy against change

Posted on November 13, 2019 Leave a comment

Economic Freedom Fighters member of Parliament (MP) Mbuyiseni Ndlozi on Tuesday reiterated his scorn of the Springbok rugby team and said there would be no racial unity in South Africa until wealth was shared equally and land returned to those from whom it was taken.

Ndlozi, in a debate on a motion to congratulate the Springboks for winning the Rugby World Cup, said calls to rally behind the team was a form of collective abuse of black people, who were being asked to sanctify a sport and a symbol that remained redolent of white supremacy.

“Because the Springbok is a sign that cannot be whitewashed, it stands in parallel continuity with Die Stem entrenching white supremacy in our society. That is why the rugby team in question is white-dominated. It is a perfect reflection that white people have successfully resisted change in our society for 25 years,” he said.

He said the mass street celebrations that have met the returning rugby ch

Rugby World Cup: All Blacks 23 – Springboks 13 – Did BEE make the difference between winning and just playing?

Posted on September 21, 2019 Leave a comment

There were few opportunities in the Springboks’ first game against the All Blacks in Japan as Cheslin Kolbe had few chances, but could have scored at least a try if Wille le Roux’s passing to him was better.

Faf de Klerk is brilliant sometimes but he also makes the game unnecessarily slow. His kicking over the scrum was sometimes pathetic and he was also out of position several times.

KWOTA center Damian de Ellendig just doesn’t give up a ball and his defense leaves much to be desired.

Wing Makazole Mapimpi had a poor match. He just can’t ‘tackle’.

Siya Kolisie is a KWOTA captain and KWOTA flanker. The only time he was close to the game was when he missed his two tackles.

That way we won’t win the World Cup…

All South Africans deserve to share in Rugby World Cup joy, not just premium DSTV subscribers

Posted on September 20, 2019 Leave a comment

“It is a pity that the SABC’s inability to broadcast the Rugby World Cup will deprive millions of South Africans of the opportunity to participate in the euphoria and cohesion that the tournament brings to everyone in the country,” says Heloïse Jordaan, FF Plus MP and chief spokesperson for sport.

“The mandate of the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture is to promote nation-building and social cohesion. The World Cup is the ideal opportunity to do so.”

“It is therefore regrettable that the SABC does not go the extra mile to make plans in partnership with the government and the broadcaster of the spectacle, as with Absa’s Soccer Premier League series, to make the broadcast possible on the SABC’s channels, even if it’s just the matches in South Africa.

“In the case of the broadcasting rights for the football series, Minister Nathi Mthethwa (sport, arts and culture) played a leading role
