Give Jan the red card
23 Mar 2009
Keo, in his weekly Business Day newspaper column, writes Vodacom’s Player 23 campaign is an insult to the cosmopolitan South African rugby supporter.
For 10 years South African rugby’s marketing team did everything to reflect that in a new South Africa there was a new South African rugby culture far removed from the brandy and coke potbellied types that stereotype the traditional white Afrikaans male’s bond with the game.
Zulu dancers were introduced as part of pre-match entertainment at Tests, playing quotas ensured black representation on the field and slowly blacks were enticed to experience an afternoon at the palace of what was once a white’s only affair.
There was an effort being made to change perception and to kill off stereotyping, but South African rugby could guarantee nothing outside of their control – and they don’t control who pays to go to a ground. They could not foresee Piet van Zyl, dressed in jeans and a Springbok jersey that couldn’t accommodate his barrel gut, casually wondering onto the field and assaulting Irish referee Dave McHugh when the Springboks played the All Blacks in Durban in 2002, and they could not be accountable for the actions of an unidentified individual who racially abuses another at a game.
All that South African rugby can control is that over which it has influence, and that is why the endorsement of Vodacom’s 2009 rugby campaign is baffling because all it has done is reinforce that the South African rugby fan is everything the organization has tried to convince us is no longer the case.
Vodacom, as the primary sponsor of rugby in South Africa, is celebrating the year of the fan. His name is Jan, he is player 23 in the team and he is a clone of the 1970s white Springbok rugby supporter – a walking caricature of what has always repulsed. Only they’ve given Jan a personality of being a jovial and hugely popular bloke, but perception is stronger than fact and the physical appearance of Jan and what he represents in the stands adds to the perception that rugby in South Africa is still a game supported only by grossly overweight brandy and coke potbellied types.
I have sympathy for the well-traveled and likeable modern Afrikaans-speaking South African who loves his language, loves his rugby and loves living in South Africa. This modern Afrikaner certainly doesn’t look or act like Jan and he must cringe every time he sees the advertisement.
In an evolving South African rugby audience market, Jan is in the minority at Stormers and Sharks matches, which says player 23 should be a celebration of something more than a pot-bellied Afrikaans speaking supporter. What of Gert, who is sophisticated, lean and intelligent? What of Sipho, who digs his rugby almost as much as he does soccer? What of Alice who never misses a game? What of Peter, who has always put the Springboks first on a Saturday afternoon?
Vodacom will defend their choice of Jan as good natured fun and SA Rugby will see nothing offensive in it, yet continue to wonder why the perception that their game caters only for conservative and racist whites.
The game in this country is more cosmopolitan in support than it has ever been and that is the pity of the advertisement because it reflects the past when there is so much of the current to be showcased when the British & Irish Lions visit in June.
This is not about being politically correct, but about accuracy in who supports the Springboks. There is more to South African rugby than Jan, but thanks to Jan it will take another 10 years to convince critics of South African rugby that there is life beyond the 23rd member of the team.
Things off the field have changed in our rugby and innovation would be celebrating this in the same way the Bulls and Sharks celebrated what hasn’t changed on the field, which is the ability of a good South African team to turn defence into the most lethal form of attack.
The Bulls and Sharks were brutal in defending their line against the Hurricanes and Force respectively, and the skill in maintaining defensive composure is equal to anything a team does when given the ball.
Rugby is a game played as much without the ball as with it, and at the weekend we saw two very good South African sides reinforce the stereotype that South African teams are more dangerous without the ball.
And, unlike Jan, that is a stereotype the cosmopolitan South African rugby fan should never find offensive.

Keo,you better leave the office now.
Jan is on his way to moer you!!
23 Mar 2009, 12:18 pm
I see your point Keo,but as a white Afrikaner I’m not offended. We can actually laugh at ourselves(most of us) and I find the ad quite funny.
23 Mar 2009, 12:19 pm
Keo drawing the race card again…
23 Mar 2009, 12:19 pm
lol, interesting piece, i have not seen the advertising campaign.
Guess it depends, if Jan is done like a Van Der Merwe type oke then i think it could be hugely amusing, everyone enjoys the okker or larrikin and the individual who could not give a f’ck if he’s sophisticated or not. Say no to metrosexual chardonnay sippers in rugby. Besides thats our claim to fame, who wants to be sophisticated? We could not be even if we wanted to.
The problem with the Boorish image is that its associated with racism, and the stereotype is often true, not always.
I would take someone who ryks his poep anyday of the week, even if he is the consumate idiot.

if vodacom see’s their average client as a fat and sweaty…going bald…male who looks drunk and wears a Springbok jersey and frokkies…good luck to them.
23 Mar 2009, 12:25 pm
It is ridiculous to find fault with an advertising campaign just because it doesn’t fall into your personal taste. I can guarantee you that 90% of people who saw that ad for the first time had a bit of a chuckle at it – everyone knows a ‘Jan’ from somewhere, and it doesn’t matter which colour he is.
People these days are just so sensitive about **** like this.
So much for VodaCom sponsoring a banner on keo.co.za.
23 Mar 2009, 12:25 pm
unfortunately south africans cannot do a decent parody of themselves, since they not really secure enough to laugh at themselves so i should imagine Jan is as corny as hell.
He needs to be helluva dom and a bit of a loser. There’s an oke called harry enfield in pomgola who makes me piss myslelf. He does two south african characters. The first is a tactless pharmacist, who is so f’ing close to the bone its frightening, and the second is a gymrat called Pik, which is also bladdy good. All on utube, now that is funny parody.
23 Mar 2009, 12:26 pm
Expect this one to ruffle some feathers.
I was actually thinking the same thing when the campaign came out, I thought that somebody would eventually comment on it.
Something like this gives Simnikiwe Xabanisa from the Sunday Times even more ammunition.
23 Mar 2009, 12:27 pm
elke keer as ek daai ad sien wil ek braak…dis mos hoe elke flippen Suid-Afrikaanse rugby ondersteuner lyk en optree…
23 Mar 2009, 12:28 pm
Don’t patronize me Keo. You don’t know Gert from a bar of soap and you don’t know the average Afrikaans supporter – or care two hoots about him – either.
I am white, Afrikaans, have a Master’s degree and have travelled to three different continents. I don’t have a pot belly and I’m still far from middle aged. And I LOVE Jan.
Don’t try and tell me what I should and shouldn’t enjoy. The overwhelming response from PAYING rugby supporters has been that they love the Jan add. Every time it comes on, I turn up the volume, call my buddies, and we have a good laugh.
Go back to your southern suburb ivory tower in Cape Town, and keep your poisonous views to yourself.
I don’t complain about the Soccer add where the Man United fans get treated to the local soccer culture, which features 100% black fans.
In any case, you should just wait 30 years until our white population approaches that of Zim in numbers, and you’ll get what you’re asking for without having to fight for it.
In the meantime, stop being an aggravator, an instigator and a bullsh*t generator.

I disagree Keo.
By your logic the average soccer supporter is A fat black guy with massive glasses and a vuvuzela? That is what the advertisements show me. So by your flawed logic all the soccer supporters are taxi drivers?
23 Mar 2009, 12:30 pm
#3 pokkel: I am coloured. I don’t think there is anything wrong with the ad campaign.
I find it quite entertaining and true…
When I watch the ad, I don’t see a “white afrikaner.” I view myself just like Jan, passionate about rugby and the Boks and of course, “my team.”
I think its a great campaign which makes the supporter apart of the team.

Keo actually got the idea from reading his article. Why only come out with it now Keo? The ad has been running for months now.
23 Mar 2009, 12:35 pm
So Keo, what is the solution?
Should “Jan” be a personality-less mascot of some kind?
Or should we have a panel in the campaign, you know, a liquorice-all-sorts type group of people, with the mandatory white, coloured, black and Indian okes/ladies?
23 Mar 2009, 12:35 pm
#19 Ned:
i actually think that Harry Enfield does both characters so well that one cannot help be endeared to them; whereas i should imagine Jan would be made out to be this popular sunshine oke which defeats the purpose. the oke has to be the butt of the joke, but is too dom to know or care, that would also appeal to all the other groups in SA who would associate with it as being a more accurate image… the oke passed out in the parking lot with a blouebul horn helmet protuding from his arse.

We must not forget to ensure that the supporter’s panel includes:

I would suggest that the average Man United fan or the average Aussie Rules fan or the average NFL fan in Dallas, Texas doesn’t look very different from Jan.
That is the archetypal sports fan you see there, gentlemen. If you are looking for a metrosexual intellectual type in a sports jacket and designer jeans, you are looking in the wrong place.
23 Mar 2009, 12:42 pm
#15 cab:
Cab, go to youtube and search for player 23.
Keo what an absolute load of rubbish!
If a marketing or advertising campaign is aimed at creating an interest in a target market where the game is not popular, they will create something to suit that and it won’t be this player 23 campaign.
If a marketing campaign is aimed at celebrating our cosmopolitan rugby nation a campaign which depicts our RWC success with pictures of Madiba and thousands of people of all races at the airport or lining the streets against the background music of Impi will be more popular than a campaign like the player 23 one.
However if a campaign is designed around celebrating the supporter of the game of rugby you turn to the supporters who best and most support the game of rugby – the ‘year of the fan’ campaign SS and Vodacom is currently doing.
Jan and the player 23 campaign is specifically aimed at rugby – however when I see add campaigns for soccer the image or persona used is that of a guy with oversized sunglasses, hard hats and vuvuzelas and yes, they are mainly black, because that is the majority support base.
Hell some campaigns in the past used taxi drivers driving through Soweto on the way to FNB stadium carrying a bunch of Poms.
Did I find that offensive?
f#$@ no!
This is a poor attempt at trying to fuel something that has nothing to do with the issue you are trying to raise out of it.
FFS I thought the Jan campaign is kak funny as was the soccer taxi campaign add.

#3 pokkel: Yes, it is funny and yes, it is true that I can also laugh at my fellow Afrikaners (normally whenever I go anywhere near Loftus, Centurion or Pretoria North).
Keo does have a point though. I don’t like people thinking all Afrikaners are “Boers” like one of my Indian friends at work call us. The perception is there that Afrikaans okes all drive 4×4′s, drink brandy, have a beer gut and are stupid.
So call me player 24, the Afrikaans speaking, Audi driving, wine and whiskey connoisseur with an athletic body, who is working on his 3rd engineering degree. I don’t think Jan and I will get along well.

Unfortunately, Alan Knott-Craig holds himself in such high regard as a marketing genius that you won’t get Vodacom to change anything.

One of the worst articles I’ve read in years. I’m sure if you sat for more that 5 minutes you could have come up with something better.

23 Mar 2009, 13:04 pm
Keo is just trying his best to get a racist argument thread going again. These generaly manage to go on all day and generate the largest threads and so up the ‘audited’ hit rates. THis of course ups the advertising revenue.
Not stupid tactics, just a really stupid article.
23 Mar 2009, 13:05 pm
Truth be told, I had a good chuckle when I first saw the ad – and I still laugh every time I see it.
My English mates also enjoy the ad, my coloured and black mates too.
I think it takes a very hate-filled individual to watch the ad and, instead of just enjoying it, see it as threatening the cosmopolitan nature of rugby support in South Africa.
23 Mar 2009, 13:05 pm
Keo, this article shows just how prejudiced you are, I think it’s a hilarious ad campaign and for vodacom to have depicted the average SA rugby supporter as a chardonnay swilling yuppie would have been condescending and would have missed the point.
I must have missed the point where Jan was drinking brannewyn or making racist remarks in the advert, but to perpetuate the steroetype that the average white rugby supporter fits into your jaundiced perception is wrong, unfair and inflammatory.
Let’s rather celebrate and embrace our diversity as SA rugby supporters than to keep on harping on the bad elements and stereotypes that we know still exists out there.
To see you jumping on the Xabanisa bandwagon is also quite disappointing, seeing that he was harping on this over a week ago in the Sunday Times.

Anyone who has a problem with that ad needs to get a life.
Pathetic Mark….
23 Mar 2009, 13:09 pm
Are the stands really filled with cosmopolitan South African rugby supporters?
What constitutes a cosmopolitan South African rugby supporter?
23 Mar 2009, 13:10 pm
I wouldn’t have made such an appalling ad that speaks only to one section of a support base when all involved in rugby keep on preaching of the need to recognise and promote the diverse nature of who watches games
It is a throwback to white conservative and racist South Africa. You look at that and you know why the world took (and still does take) the piss out of white afrikaans South Africans

Spot on! Some guy wrote in to the Sunday times yesterday moaning about the ad. I p*ssed myself laughing.
Now Keo does the same thing; standards are slipping with his ideas big time!
23 Mar 2009, 13:12 pm
Keo, I think it’s time you got off your high horse and accepted that any character used for the campaign would be based on a GENERALISATION. Do you not think people would be scratching their heads if Vodacom had used “Alice who never misses a game”?
Do you think Leon Schuster intends for his character to be enjoyed only by silly racist ********? I would say I have friends from a reasonable cross section of society within South Africa and I based on conversation all of them love the ad.
Your article reaks of sh*% stirring!
23 Mar 2009, 13:13 pm
#101 keo: most certainly not in the corporate world, my friend. My experience of how white, afrikaans South Africans are viewed in the corporate world ( in the UK, at least, and clearly in Aus – if you look at the professional roles they fulfill there) is not one of the piss being taken out of us, but one of respect. But then again, maybe I’m too thick to notice that the piss is being taken…

#86 keo:
and south africa doesn’t have any players in europe, uk, oz, japan?
There are over 160 south african professional rugby players in France alone.
No excuse for being as bad as they are, The Bulls and Sharks are the only SA teams performing this year from an SA perspective, the reason being they have been playing together for a few years and the unions have great structures bringing players to top form!

Thats not a repulsive south african, go to a foreign test match and watch some half-pissed leery dros soeking kak with the ppl around them and jeering macho monoslyllabic aggressive grunts until some boyo from the valleys resets their clock.
This oke looks pretty harmless, i think its well done. the blonde cheerleaders are as wrong as all hell, but its perfect, no rugby lover will complain at all.
23 Mar 2009, 13:14 pm
Jan’s poppies are more of a stereotype and even more demeaning.
But – damn! – who doesn’t want to see more of that booty shuffling shot?
And it’s a lag to watch the rugby players taking the piss out of themselves?
Also, I think Jan could very well be more sophisticated than the average British soccer supporter.

He is a 26 year old hen pecked husband who drinks only 2 glasses of Chardonay after the game, hates red meat, goes to gym 4 mornings a week, in an arrangement with his wife, where he goes home straight after the 2 glasses to babysit.
He spends a lot of money on male grooming products, designer jeans and is currently reading about “modern parenting”

KEO…. I see where you’re coming from but hey… it is what it is.
Vodacom have nailed the persona. How funny is that add? We the overseas public see every nuance whilst watching games broadcast from SA. The cameramen pan the stadia week in week out and it couldn’t be more truthful.
The yahoo Harrys (Jans) swilling & the girls with their assets (I bet the camera man has his side-kick spotting the hooters with binoculars pre the pan shot). My sons think the whole show hilarious, especially when a player is down with injury then all of a sudden the camera pans in for a money shot. Every week is a Hong Kong 7’s S14 style, minus the Heineken jugs and blow up dolls in the Southern Stand.
All countries have these Jans so don’t feel SA has a mortgage on cringe factor.
23 Mar 2009, 13:42 pm

Bollocks Keo,
I am black and Namibian. Lived in SA for four years, cape town to be exact. There is something seriously wrong with the phsyche of the country and all its people (most keo bloggers aside ala rangerman et al), articles like this just compound the problem.
Not even once did I think of the ad as having some sort of negative racial connotations in it, that was until you mentioned it. I still dont see it to be honest. Silly article; I swear I only return to this site for the bloggers and their insights. Your lot (and I dont mean white people, before you jump on my back – I mean jc, ryan and especially simon and grant) are worse than the ad. Why not put a pot bellied jan or converse wearing Sipho or Alice who never misses a game caricature at the bottom of the page.
Reflect on that

“keo has written 1332 articles.”
And this one is the worst…
23 Mar 2009, 14:00 pm
lol, many miss the point, keo still knows how to write them.
i agree the ad is nothing, and pretty amusing, i enjoy that side of the afr culture, which is very admirable esp in view of all the female-like vanity and superficial **** that seems to be the new-age thing.
there is an element of truth to what keo is saying tho, which is that sometimes the adverstising and spectacles can be patronising, and that is trully cringeworthy, the **** where u see those 3 multi-coloured poofdas crouching down on the castle advert is sick-indcuing and totally contrived.
its when the adverts become condescending or patronising, by calling one another ‘chief’ and so on, where its a bit off, but that looks pretty amusing.

Well the Southern Suburbs is traditionally a wealthy white area but I can’t see any correlation between that area and racism above the norm in SA. I went to SACS for 12 years right under the mountain and I can tell you that those black clouds and constant rain coupled with squashed little properties do start to create some agro.

Hi Pietman,
In case you are still around today here is something more:
It is probably save to say that the overwhelming majority of bloggers on this site are centre or on the right side of the political spectrum in SA. The so called “lefties” are therefore far in the minority. Despite this, the banned or suspended list comprises of nearly only “lefties”. It leads to a number of questions such as:
Is it because only the “lefties” are vulgar and do not know how to behave themselves while the “righties and centries” are all as clean as whistles?
Is it because the “righties and centries”are much more intolerant and therefore more “trigger happy” as far as reporting of people are concerned?
Is it because the moderator is biased or perhaps giving in to pressure applied by the majority?
Is here perhaps some sort of Keomafia who is running (or trying to run) the show?
There are obviously more questions but that will only complicate things further. Do you have the answer?

yes that was the way it seemed, since all those recently banned bloogers you mentioned were from the left politically and there bannings seemed to after fighting with those on the right.
if you are suggesting that these ppl just go off for no reason in the manner they do, well no-one buys that.
so far as hater is concerned, i was probably wrong and she’d obviously just lost it. however frustrated and angry you are, it remains a public forum with ppl of all ages and sensibilities, i dont mind it personally, but if you get banned for acting like trash you cant complain since that its precisely this adopted persona/identity for the explicit purpose of causing offence.
the ppl that get right in amonst the **** do it for a reason, they do it to rub ppl up the wrong way and it works and is entertaining, but yeah its pretty unpleasant when it becomes personal.. there’s free speech, but also manners, and manners are not limited to any social class, they can either be adopted or rejeced by each individual.
but some don’t want manners, they want someone who rails and gnashes and upsets, a man of the downtrodden masses, a populist, a demagogue, a n’hher in the woodpile (bladdy terrible word). but thats just it, they feel their are attitudes and crimes that have been committed which make all these PC niceties farcicaL
alot of the stuff is offensive, but so too are the attitudes on here which they find offensive. so sometimes leeway needs to be given to keep the balance even if not everyones cup of tea.

If anyone finds this add racist then they have rocks in their heads. It is a pisstake of the highest order.
Seriously there are guys like this at every game at every level and they are all colours/brands. They’re also usually grossly over-weight in a jersey a few sizes small. Having said that there is also the cool dudes in their stove-pipe jeans, collar length tussled hair (tad emo for sure) downing a pint or 2 just like Jan.
23 Mar 2009, 14:05 pm
Jan is the typical BBulls supporter. Just look into the stands at a Loftus game. They park their caravan next to Loffies, braai and suip for half the day and then go watch the game like soccer hooligans. Can not say the same for Cape Town & Durban games. The Bulls have the best girls though….

23 Mar 2009, 14:45 pm
From my point of view, I think the whole Jan-Player23 is DUMB. It’s so uninspiring that it highlights how far behind we are when it comes to marketing and advertising (from my personal opinion when compared with other sport promotions overseas). Eg Adidas’ +10 Campaign
Previously it was “Greatest Supporter of SA Supporters” which was ambiguous to me. Were they claiming to be a supporter of SA supporters or as I subliminally feared that they were laying claims to be SA’s Greatest Supporter of all supporters (comparison).

He’s actually looking quite trim and fit now.
Every time I see him he tells me how much weight he’s losing – this time I actually see it. Still a bit soft but it was really good playing with him. Such a nice guy.

keo, this article of yours is overflowing with prejudice.
To paraphrase your argument: Jan is fat, white, Afrikaans and male. We can therefore infer that he is also stupid, racist, alcoholic and brutish.
Remove the plank from your own eye, keo.

I think this Jan thing is a dumbass campaign.
Really, with all the creative types in SA you’d think they could come up with something a bit more inspiring and original.
Anyway, keo, by highlighting this and elevating it into a business day article you are propogating the very issues you are complaining about… i.e. the fact that race comes into everything.
Not really your best work Mark. If you really want to be a politically leaning sport journalist then rather be part of the solutuion and not the problem. Just a thought.

Bill Hicks take on marketing…
By the way, if anyone here is in advertising or marketing, kill yourself. Thank you, thank you. Just a little thought. I’m just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day they’ll take root. I don’t know. You try. You do what you can. Kill yourselves. Seriously though, if you are, do. No really, there’s no rationalisation for what you do, and you are Satan’s little helpers, OK? Kill yourselves, seriously. You’re the ruiner of all things good. Seriously, no, this is not a joke. “There’s gonna be a joke coming…” There’s no f@cking joke coming, you are Satan’s spawn, filling the world with bile and garbage, you are f@cked and you are f@cking us, kill yourselves, it’s the only way to save your f@cking soul. Kill yourself, kill yourself, kill yourself now. Now, back to the show.
“You know what Bill’s doing now, he’s going for the righteous indignation dollar, that’s a big dollar, a lot of people are feeling that indignation, we’ve done research, huge market. He’s doing a good thing.” Godammit, I’m not doing that, you scumbags, quit putting a godamn dollar sign on every f@cking thing on this planet!

Keo – why don’t you come up with a better character than Jan? Should he be some pot smoking dreadlocked hippy drinking cane and creme soda? Leave ‘Jan’ and whatever you have dreamed him up to be alone. In actual fact just leave the Afrikaner alone. You perpetuate the view on Afrikaners by writing this sort of trash. What would you have our representative character be? And by the way, what is wrong with a pot-bellied Afrikaner? Racist? Its like saying those Kaizer Chiefs fans dressed like Zulu warriors are racists – what utter rubbish!

Ek het nooit gesê ek wil by die SAS aansluit nie, jy sit weer woorde in my mond!
Ek mag dalk kinderagtig wees op tye – soveel sal ek erken – maar sien, dis die verskil, ek is bereid om my foute te erken.
Dit kan nie gesê word vir almal hier nie.
En ek het jou al voorheen gesê, respek word verdien, en verloor. Ek het nie jou goedkeurig nodig nie – ook nie Dawn s’n nie. Ek is my eie mens, en ek is onder NIEMAND se rok nie.
En ek is jammer as dit jou pla.
Julle is so oorsensitief op tye, wil ‘n verskoning hê vanaf mense wat blykbaar met julle skoor soek of watookal dan – maar as die situasie omgekeer is, is daar geen verskoning van julle kant af nie?
Ek gee nie om as ek my naam gat gemaak het nie volgens jou. Ek is nie ‘n skaap wat die res van die trop volg soos meeste hier nie…

“Give Jan the Red Card” – what a load of bullshit. It’s about the idea of centralising the fan and placing the spotlight on the fan to emphasize his/her importance to the game. Do we now really have to go and look at the physical appearance, skin colour of the person they used to personify this “fan”. Please keo dont be so insecure. There is no person on this planet that they could have used that would have represented the whole spectrum of the rugby public in this rainbow nation of ours! Maybe Jan is english speaking, very intelligent, well travelled (whatever), his father an old Inkatha comrade and maybe he can speaks Xhosa and Zulu fluently…BUT unfortunately his from a bad gene pool and therefore the bear bellie etc.
Please keo dont make politics out of actions which should be applauded by us the rugby fans. At least they are acknowledging us – which also happens to be the same hand that feeds you.

Keo is a microcosm of the greater South African society (and by greater I do mean in its entirety, inclusive of the great South African diaspora).
Unfortunately it does not bode well for our country’s fractured psyche.
Personally, I suspect the anonymity that a blog like this brings, along with the inherent protection against retribution to your person, allows views to surface which might ordinarily stay hidden.
Not a bad thing, however, it is important for views – however extreme they might be – to be let loose in the marketplace of ideas to be discussed, and, if need be, torn to shreds.

Jeez, the journos at Keo.co.za are scrapping the bottom of the barrel trying to find entertaining subject matter. this is a ridiculous article…
Honestly, I dont think that Vodacom meant the Player 23 advert as a representation of the average SA supporter. I personally think that it is a brilliant advert. I suppose the Spur advert with the farmer and the taxi driver is a fair representation of how we as South Africans act towards one another…
What of Sipho, What of the Sharks supporters, do you not think that the advert was meant to be humorous? I think that 90% of the people that saw the advert found it funny, you obviuosly fall into the 10% that didnt… sorry for you…

people lets look at the bigger picture here.
i think rugby as a whole, really needs all the support it can get. to be more appealing to the black market is a smart move if you consider the demographics of the country.
just look at how many black people who did not have Dstv went on to buy it, just to get a piece of their favorite team nailing their arch rivals.
if rugga is more appealing to the black market all the better for everyone in SA. as this could thwart all cash flow problems and bolster player earnings which means no exodus.

OK lads, I’ve been reading and quickly signed up. I will only post once and it will be just to shut all the people, like Keo,who want to stir and find issues where none really exist, up.
I was part of the team that developed this campaign. And for you oh so sensitive souls, the fact that a “stereotype” was used was decided by the two most senior BLACK guys in our group. The suggestion was put forward by myself, a white Afrikaans guy and others, that it should perhaps show a broader spectrum of supporters. But my manager, the BLACK guy who has won numerous awards and knows what the hell he is talking about, overuled me. And he was right. The ad is right on the money and the response on this thread proves it. Like so many of you have pointed out, when an ad was made showing only black guys in soccer, no one batted an eyelid.
The reality is, everyone who loves the game has a bit of Jan in usthem and guys like Keo and the rest (You know who you are) are just too afraid to admit it.
Jan is not racist, Jan is a fun loving guy who happens to be overweight and balding. You feel free to read into it what you will, the issue lies with you, because it’s in YOUR mind. That was not what the message or intent was with Jan.
In closing, please remember, Jan was created in part by a very succesful BLACK man. So keo and co. go hunt wiches somewhere else.

Credit Crunch Tips
DON’T waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite tune and hum it. If you want to “switch tracks”, simply think of another song you like and hum that instead.
• SAVE money on expensive personalised car number plates by changing your name to match your existing plate. – Mr. KVL 741GP,
• DON’T waste money buying expensive binoculars; simply stand closer to the object you wish to view.
• SAVE electricity by turning off all the lights in your house and walking around wearing a miner’s hat.
• HOUSEWIVES, the best way to get two bottles of washing-up liquid for the price of one is by putting one in your shopping trolley and the other in your coat pocket.
• OLD telephone directories make ideal personal address books, simply cross out the names and address of people you don’t know.
• SAVE on booze by drinking cold tea instead of whisky. The following morning you can create the effects of a hangover by drinking a thimble-full of washing up liquid and banging your head repeatedly on the wall.
• SAVE a fortune on laundry bills. Give your dirty shirts to the hospice shop, they will wash and iron them and you can buy them back for fifty cents.
• CAN’T afford contact lenses? Simply cut out small circles of cling film and press them into your eyes.
• MAKE your own inexpensive mints by leaving blobs of toothpaste to dry on a window sill. Use striped toothpaste to make humbugs.
• SHOPPERS, when buying oranges, get more for your money by peeling them before taking them to the counter to be weighed.

Keo posted this article at 12:11, 23 March 2009 and when you hear the signal it will be 17:10, 23 March 2009. During this time the following has happened in our failing democracy;
12 South Africans have been murdered
16 South Africans have been raped
85 South Africans have been assaulted
and you have the time to keep yourself busy with this ****.
Keo, jy bekommer jouself oor kinderkak as vet vaatjie jou pla, grow some balls and report on something that will make a real change in this country.
It is like giving money to the SPCA while our kids are dying right under our noses of hunger and abuse.

#635 RedLion: I must admit that I haven’t read the article. The mag is not available where I live unfortunately. (Although I do drive to Coca-Cola park for most of the games.)
I used to live in the south of JHB, and admit that Soccer City is probably easier to drive to than the Park, but with the opening of the new car park at Coca-Cola Park, many of the problems surrounding parking and safety should be greatly alleviated.
I would just question the general atmosphere of Soccer City, it seems almost as if it’s just stuck out there between nowhere and nothing, and while that makes for ok access, I’m not sure the safety aspect would be much better for after match revellery.
However, I stand to be corrected. Seeing 7 720 people (figure given by Rapport) attending a match at Coca-Cola park is sad, but given the result v the Stormers, and all the nonsense during the week, I’m not surprised.
I doubt that the GLRU / Lions Rugby (PTY) LTD came close to breaking even financially on that game.
Even more reason to cut club and school allowances in the area, and stop the development of home grown talent!

I get what you say. There are a lot of those okes running around. Problem with `playing the game` for most of them, they think it`s a bit Gayish. Watch any tv show and the quirky and sarcastic dude is always the *** one. Entertaining as it might be, Boere seuns want to be seen as macho men. That is why they love 4×4 bakkies so much.
I think there is nothing per se wrong with it, but it does open them up to some ridicule. However, most Boereseuns today are quite streetwise and with the times.
The whole problem is the crappy journalism that is going on. You would think there is something morally wrong with being an Afrikaner.

Superb. I couldn’t agree more. The Jan’s of the world are the ones supporting the likes of Leon Boschoff.
They must pi$$ off now.
For those who have watched rugger at the Shark Tank or Newlands or even overseas at Twickers, Cardiff or the like which are relative JFZ’s (thats Jan Free Zones) its so much more enjoyable than a more Jan friendly environment like Loftus or Ellis Park.

its this ‘ai die arme afr’ attitude which is so defensive. i honestly believe if most of u okes did not make such a hoo-haa this site probably would not be in business (a shame in itself) and if Strauli and Krige had just learned to handle themselves slightly differently, they would have been viewed completely differently by worldrugby.

There’s nothing wrong with the ad or campaign – if anything it’s funny and any person who doesn’t chuckle when they watch the ads are just looking for something to make a noise about or politically hypersensitve. We have too many people in SA these days who have lost the ability to either laugh at themselves or forget about politics and perceptions…
I can’t remember the last time I saw a campaign or ad that had an Afrikaans oke that’s overweight as the posterboy – if anything this is the type of person who has been discrimanated against over the past couple of years – rather applaud Vodacom for introducing a bit of diversity in advertising campaigns again, mate!

#683 cab: Funny thing is the intolerance between Afrikaners. We love to give each other k@k. Arikaners can also not stand together. And do you know why?
Take me for example. Most people will perceive me as an Afrikaner. I am a big bloke who also played rugby. And yes i am an Afrikaner, but with 50% Irish and Scottish in me.
A lot of Afrikaners is not pure ********. That is the case with most cultures around the world. In fact you don`t get any pure race anymore. We as Afrikaners encompasses more different cultures than say the blacks ( oops ) in SA. We are not so typical as you might think.
Anyway i fully get your view and you are right and wrong just like me. I truly believe nobody is just right or just wrong. I have even learned a few things from complete idiots.
Ok enough from me about this for today.

Kicking into the wind if it blows from the South is a nightmare on that field.
To make matters worse their regular kicker (Rosslee) also left the field after half time, so I guess they had no option but to kick for touch.
Tough luck,

i dont believe i am right at all. you are giving your view and i am giving mine, which we both take it accountt. for whats its worth I’m probably exactly the same as you with alot of afr stock and look like a big afr, just happens i speak engels. i actually personally prefer the afr culture.
Except for the intolerance, it can be unbearable. on the other hand there are some exceptionally tolerant individuals katman, wptid, racheltjie – but as a whole its the lack of tolerance, which has got the afr to how its perceived as a group. Every individual has the ability to either change that or conform to the stereotype.

Needless to say i left that place very soon after. Feeling too uncomfortable.

#18 Tacitus:
Hey Tac,
You were doing well until you got to the part
“Go back to your southern suburb ivory tower in Cape Town”
You commit the same sin as Keo.
I am English speaking (grandparents all moved from the UK), have those degrees (not that it is relevant), I live in the Southern suburbs (support the Sharks of course as I originate from Durban). My schooling in Durban ensured that my Afrikaans sucks.
And guess what – I also like the Jan advert.
I don’t take it seriously. It was intended to raise a chuckle and it did.
I don’t see Jan as a Piet van Zyl. If I did I would switch the advert off when it gets played.
I come across Piet van Zyl’s every time I go to Newlands in my Sharks jersey.
Brandy breath, fat ******** scream “Province” or WEEPEE 2 inches from my face (brandy spittle all over the place)
The same thing used to happen at Ellis Park except now you can’t find the supporters.
I must admit generally the Loftus crowds have treated me with respect and I have returned the favour.
There have been one or 2 exceptionswhere the experience has been the same as above.
The PvZ sort I refer to above – we don’t need them in the stadiums.
Jan – he is fine.
However making ‘Southern Suburbs’ stereotypes is no different to Keos stereotype
23 Mar 2009, 19:37 pm
Sorry Keo, I cant agree with your view point. You are grossly generalising, which makes you not much better than the architects of apartheid. They generalised that black people were unproductive as well as stupid and therefore inferior. You seem to be doing the same.
My issue with the ad is how come the lions are the only team left out?! But as a Saffa you got to love Robbie Wessels
And Keo your assumption of lean people being at the Shark tank is total BS. I’m a fitness professional and grossly overweight people piss me off. And when the cameras pan around all the stadiums where do you see the most… Shark tank hands down! Then Loftus.

#18 Tacitus:
Tac, you are an intelligent man with commendable rugby nous. That doesn’t mean I like you — I actually detest much of your commentary. It just means that when it comes to rugby matters, I respect your opinion.
Here, however, you completely miss the point.
It’s not about what YOU should or shouldn’t enjoy. It’s about what EVERYONE ELSE CANNOT enjoy, thanks to this portrayal.
I, like you, am Afrikaans, have a Master’s degree, and have travelled to four different continents (and lived on three of them). I do not have a pot belly and I’m still far from middle aged. And I RESENT Jan.
You can remain stubbornly entrenched in your little palace of delusion if you want. The reality is that this image is one that South African rugby has struggled to discard (often in the most confusing and counterproductive ways, but that’s a matter for another debate). Bringing it back alienates a massive proportion of South African rugby supporters. They don’t identify with it, and truth be told, I don’t identify with it either.
Stop, put yourself in the shoes of, say, a 37-year old black man who only recently got into rugby, and then imagine what this image conjures for you. Feel a part of the fun now? Probably not. In fact, you’re probably reminded of exactly why you didn’t give two sh*ts about rugby in the first place before a new image convinced you to try it out a few years ago.
Like it or not, Jan represents a few steps backward for South African rugby’s image. I cringe at the thought of it. Not because I don’t know (or dislike) Jan — that’s irrelevant. It’s because I know how tentative rugby’s hold is on a whole new demographic.
This is a fantastic article.
23 Mar 2009, 20:00 pm
Keo is absolutely correct, if that is the image the average SA rugby fan is supposed to represent then we have not moved one iota from the boorish imbecile that twat is supposed to be representing.
Talk about dark age deficiency that fool represents the entire hopelessness of any kind of evolution whatsoever, abysmal idiocy to say the very least.

Pitiful trash – you happy with that image roped around your neck, you stick with it, not me thank you and that advert is doing no good to reaching across any cultural or intelligent aspirations by anyone whatsoever, stick with that image, but before very long that **** will be dead as a dodo right where it belongs.

23 Mar 2009, 20:15 pm
OK, where do I find this advert, I need to make up my own mind? Is it on You Tube, what do you look for?

The’re no such thing a normal Springbok supporter… reckon we’re all nuts
23 Mar 2009, 20:15 pm
my take on the matter is we as saffas must learn to laugh more…we so friggin serious about everything…we just smashed the aussies at cricket,walloped the kiwis in there back yard [bulls ],the aussies in perth [sharks ] and here we are celebrating by fighting over an ad? I seriously never heard 1 mate of any color or description comment on the ad at all….far too serious about **** in my opinion…

If they boo their own player, consistently, then listen to them and lose the player. Indirectly they collectively are the players’ employer. Indirectly, Keohane’s employer as well for that matter.

March 23rd, 2009 at 4:33 pm
OK lads, I’ve been reading and quickly signed up. I will only post once and it will be just to shut all the people, like Keo,who want to stir and find issues where none really exist, up.
I was part of the team that developed this campaign. And for you oh so sensitive souls, the fact that a “stereotype” was used was decided by the two most senior BLACK guys in our group. The suggestion was put forward by myself, a white Afrikaans guy and others, that it should perhaps show a broader spectrum of supporters. But my manager, the BLACK guy who has won numerous awards and knows what the hell he is talking about, overuled me. And he was right. The ad is right on the money and the response on this thread proves it. Like so many of you have pointed out, when an ad was made showing only black guys in soccer, no one batted an eyelid.
The reality is, everyone who loves the game has a bit of Jan in usthem and guys like Keo and the rest (You know who you are) are just too afraid to admit it.
Jan is not racist, Jan is a fun loving guy who happens to be overweight and balding. You feel free to read into it what you will, the issue lies with you, because it’s in YOUR mind. That was not what the message or intent was with Jan.
In closing, please remember, Jan was created in part by a very succesful BLACK man. So keo and co. go hunt wiches somewhere else.

23 Mar 2009, 20:22 pm
Rubbish post!
There’s nothing wrong with the ad or campaign – if anything it’s funny and any person who doesn’t chuckle when they watch the ads are just looking for something to make a noise about or politically hypersensitve. We have too many people in SA these days who have lost the ability to either laugh at themselves or forget about politics and perceptions…
I can’t remember the last time I saw a campaign or ad that had an Afrikaans oke that’s overweight as the posterboy – if anything this is the type of person who has been discrimanated against over the past couple of years – rather applaud Vodacom for introducing a bit of diversity in advertising campaigns again, mate!

If you don’t feel this ad you either don’t have a sense of humour, or you’ve been stuck in your ivory tower far too long and perhaps you should climb down, leave the ego behind and live a little. I think it’s magic!

Let’s be clear here. I’m not saying he can’t find it funny. I’m saying he can’t identify with it. For every 37-year old black man who finds it funny, three will find it ridiculous and alienating. And it’s likely that the guy who finds it funny finds it funny precisely because it’s so offensively stereotypical of things he resents.
23 Mar 2009, 20:39 pm
far more interested in the prospect of Eddie Jones getting the lions job…
23 Mar 2009, 20:39 pm
#826 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts:
no sweat, you think its funny, it is very far removed from my idea of humor, so far from humor its almost laughable, but then you and Edward over here think its funny, I reckon its downright stupid, not an iota of fun in it whatsoever, just stupidity personified, thats about it.
23 Mar 2009, 20:40 pm
#834 grant10: I am so glad we’re done with them!
23 Mar 2009, 20:41 pm
While I personally don’t identify with Jan and don’t find this kind of ‘slapstick-Leon-Schuster-humour’ at all funny, most South Africans (including ‘cosmopolitan’ ones) do. I can’t explain it and perhaps it’s worth writing a Masters thesis on the subject! I think the ad gurus who produced the advert are aware that South Africans in general love laughing at stereotypes and the stereotype of a South African rugby fan most closely resembles Jan – any other image just would not have been taken seriously. Keo is projecting the wrong image (his own) of Jan here – this guy is jovial not boorish – and your average (cosmopolitan) South African would not have any problem with it. It’s obvious that Keo jumped on the bandwagon after Simnikiwe Xabanisa’s article, “Why Luke went from loose cannon to hero” (Sunday Times, March 15) was published. Not too sure what I find more offensive, patronising marketers trying to dupe us into believing what we are or patronising journalists trying to convince us what we are not!

Hello,
I’m back.
Just spent the last half an hour talking to Handbriekie, my wife, who’s been in Advertising for more than 19 years, about this specific Add-campaign.
She happened to have had a meeting with Vodacom in the Last week about various matters…. and she says they are absolutely gob-smacked with the success of this Add-campaign and the positive feed-back from the public and role-players in rugby all over SA….
Jan is going to be with us for a long time…
Long live ou Jan !!
Lekker ou Jan !
Wonder if Kanko’s had a shower yet !!
Hehehe

23 Mar 2009, 20:43 pm
Keo is quite correct, red card the imbecile twat right out of your consciousness, doing you absolutely no good, and that is especially if you find that fool vaguely funny, he is hardly funny, perhaps seriously embarrassing, but hardly funny whatsoever.
23 Mar 2009, 20:43 pm
#835 yliad: Sometimes I find stupity funny…life is sooooo serious……..and generally I mix with serious people….every day of my life. So a bit of stupidness every now and then is good for me. It makes me laugh.
23 Mar 2009, 20:44 pm
So speaking as an English woman I watched the ad….. could hardly understand a word of it!!
It is funny because, even I understand the sterotype it is sending up!!

23 Mar 2009, 21:02 pm
Eddy Jones is a showman without a pony right now, so Lions could be as good a pony to climb aboard as any, maybe just like the 2007 WC he hitched his star to the turning chariot just in time, could be his saving grace unless he prefers coaching in Japan.
Could add some dimension to Loffies blind spots just as he did for Jake the imbecile before.

Most of Vodacoms adds have become progressively more stupid by the campaign, this one almost takes the cake as the ultimate in abysmal stupidity,
well if thats who the stupid idiotic average SA rugger bugger likes to associate himself with hardly says f’all for the combined intelligence of the entire happy idiotic bang shoot of them all.
I cringe at the thought of even considering that that is who represents SA rugby, Jan the f’ckwit idiot.
Good on you Vodacom for exposing SA rugby intelligence for exactly what it is. Idiocy.

23 Mar 2009, 21:12 pm
Jake knows he is absolutely f’all without bumchum Eddy so he goes and touts Eddy for the Job so he can come along and hitch his forlorn star to Eddy’s wagon once again, no good two bit useless coach that he is.
He knows on his own he’s a ship with no rudder, so he gets Eddy to do the hard yards and he comes and scoops up the accolades just like he did last time around.

that piss easy lucky packet WC seriously got these two thinking they’re the bees knees when all and sundry that knows anything about real rugby coaching knows they not,
thing is on their own they are both abysmally stupid, almost as stupid as Jan the twat No.23, yet when they get all chummy together then for some ridiculous reason their combined stupidity turns into a little intelligence by some uncanny turn of events.
Agree Heineke would be a better bet for Lions, but possibly the Jake and Eddy show might just find itself a long lost hope of redemption seeing that 2007 WC is almost yesterday’s heroes already.

that one was so piss easy it was almost as ludicrous as this Vodacom add everyone and his imbecile cousin is raving about around here.
How about you play 14th seeded Tonga and just scrape through, then you take on the almighty 13th seeded Fiji and scrape through once again. Then just for fortuitous glory’s sake the mighty 6th seeded Argentina in the semi’s who were so played out after meeting France and Scotland in the pools and 1/4′s to round it off with the most fiercest rivals of all the almighty 7th seeded England to top off the campaign.
No easier lucky packet competition ever graced any coaches path ever and will ever do so again.
Jake and Eddy simply said open sesame and the seas parted and the WC was garnished up on a plate for the pair of them with hardly even a sweat raised, apart from against Tonga and Fiji, 14th and 13th seeds respectively that is.

#960 Ed_the_PROUDLions: The okes on Superrugby tonight reckon that AP should play inside centre for a while.
23 Mar 2009, 21:48 pm
#966 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts: AP should retire …bring on a young 10 in the VC…
23 Mar 2009, 21:48 pm
#965 grant10: Hi Grant – yeah but lets not get ahead of ourselves! I hope the Sharks take it one game at a time and hopefully they don’t get complacent.
I aslo hope Pienaar, Deysel and Hargreaves return soon – the Sharks don’t have the largest squad depth.
23 Mar 2009, 21:48 pm
Bring on the IQ test lets have an IQ showdown right here, I bet Cuito Carnivale beats every last one of you hands down.

23 Mar 2009, 21:50 pm
Right Guys and Girls , let me tell you about my day.
Got up grumpy and miserable, why? because i spend the most lovely weekend in SA sport for a very long time.
1. Bulls won
2. Sharks won
3. Lions won
4. Proteas won
5. Retief Goosen won
But the negativity late night ruined it.
At work i opened a distribution box on a telephone pole 8 meters from the ground and while i was working with my hands in the box a SNAKE came out, i nearly broke my back leaning backwards. This little devil was quite agressive and i had my work cut out to get safely of the pole. the problem was that i had to work there , so i took a branch and climbed back up the pole. I could not see him but knew he was there. After a long search witch felt like an hour i got him of the pole. As he fell to the ground i could see his length, about 40 cm long.
After finishing the job i had to climb down to mr snake, well okay thats where the excitement ended, i never saw the snake again. Dont really know the type either but i know i was inches away from a snake bite.
On my way from there i had a flat wheel and 5km further another flat wheel, so what next. Here i am stuck in the game reserve 50 km from the nearest garage with 2 flats and in big5 country. Oh well nothing exciting happened and 4 hours later i was safely back in town.
When i finally relaxed in front of my PC i see this ever ongoing fight over differences we inflate so much. Things we cant wish away , differences we will have for ever. Not even the US with hundreds of years cant find peace……….I am really sick and tired of this. This weekend we had for more than a day rugby talk , 95% about rugby until certain people came to spoil our enjoyment.
I am at the point of claiming my life back and stay away from this ****, **** that Keo can control and stop. This site have a good set of conditions if only they are enforced.
Hope someone can create a new blog where we can take control of it.
If you see me here less often , this is my reasons. There is more to life than this, it can end so quick, i stared death in the eye today ….
I know bloody well what i saw when that snake opened his mouth to strike. Africas most feared Snake the BLACK MAMBA . My 3rd encounter with one.

And I haven’t even voted yet, didn’t even know there was a poll till the Tapid idiot barometer pointed it out to me.
23 Mar 2009, 21:51 pm
#970 spooner: agree…just the 1 at a time…really hoping the stormers do well…would be very special to get 3 into the semis…and man i would love another crack at the bulls or sharks…LOL
23 Mar 2009, 21:51 pm
#964 yliad: You lot in SA seem to have too much time on your hands. I mean why now start worrying about Jan or Gert in an advert
Next thing you lot will moan about the Bok ad being shot on Table Mountain and not the Drakensberg
I just do not get it
23 Mar 2009, 21:52 pm
#974 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts: No, that was 2006, when the Sharks finished 5th (on points difference).
2008 the Sharks made a semi.
23 Mar 2009, 21:53 pm
#974 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts: can happen…lets pray not!!
23 Mar 2009, 21:53 pm

#956 grant10: Will start to save for the summer trip !
23 Mar 2009, 21:55 pm
#974 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts: Sorry, I meant 2004 – lost to the Chiefs and Reds (6-5) blues and Stormers at home after beating the Brumbies and Waratahs away on tour. Ended up finishing 7th.
23 Mar 2009, 21:57 pm
#972 grant10: They also suggested that Heinke should play the first say 50 minutes(bokke) and Beast to be used as an impact player. Heinke to scrum them to pieces and then Beast to finish off the job. I like that suggestion.
23 Mar 2009, 21:57 pm
#975 superBul:
well I haven’t been around here all weekend either, so how come its all got to be so hunky dory right up your alley for everyone to enjoy it.
I hardly find it all that much fun either to tell the truth.
I reckon most of the happy clappy backlsapping that goes on around here rather tediously boring, so you want your site back, just say the word Mr. you can go on and on for ever and a day thinking that Jan-23 or the Bulls over the Hurricanes is where its at, or else you can hearken to that Black Mamba’s hiss and realize its a very far cry from anything sanctimonious even if 3 out of 4 SA teams won this weekend.
23 Mar 2009, 21:57 pm
#975 superBul: Sitting from afar, here in the UK, I had much to rub every pomms nose in, and Gert Small was the assistant coach for Ireland. One could see his hand in their lineouts and set play
Truly a good sporting weekend
I was at Twickenham on Saturday watching the slomo rugby when 2 guys behind me said that it is bad that Jonker is the ref for England as all Afrikaners hate the Pomms.
You should have seen this 60 year old blush when I turned around and said “No we do not hate the English at all”.. And left it at that
I got an apology half way into the first half
23 Mar 2009, 21:58 pm
#977 grant10: Stormers can make it. This year with the Crusaders, Waratahs, Blues, Brumbies Canes dropping points the pack is sitting pretty together.
And in the last few years the Stormers have finished strong.
23 Mar 2009, 21:58 pm
#983 spooner: That Reds game must rate as the worst Supperrugby game ever.
23 Mar 2009, 21:59 pm
#975 superBul: great that you werent bitten my man…you always a pleasure here…almost feel your passion for the cricket…we all a bit different and always will be …from skop…cc to pietman..gbs,etc…it is those differences that should make us strong…pity we dont always get it!!

Its plain stupid, whether you think so or not, it is hardly intelligent and very far from funny, just plain idiot dumb stupid.
And I rather not watch such crass idiocy when I could be watching highlights of the game or something far more uplifting instead.
So long – out
23 Mar 2009, 22:02 pm
#984 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts: i would certainly go with that…but who at 3 !!
23 Mar 2009, 22:04 pm
#990 JL1:
Superbul vertel die waarheid, die onnoselike advertensie of die game tussen die Bulle teen die Hurricanes is baie ver van enige iets wat definitief saak maak, as daai slang hom gebyt het sou hy nooit iets oor die Bulle se vertoning wou weet, glo my vir n oomblik, braak gat of nie.

#999 grant10:Harris soars into Top ten
2009-03-23 18:12Email | Print
Paul Harris (File)
Johannesburg – Proteas’ left arm spinner Paul Harris has jumped from outside the Top 20 into eighth position in the latest Reliance Mobile ICC Test rankings for bowlers.
This is a result of his career best performance of six wickets in an innings and nine in the match in the third Test against Australia at Newlands which finished on Sunday.
Dale Steyn, ranked No. 2 behind Muttiah Muralitharan of Sri Lanka, has closed the gap to just 11 points following his performance in taking seven wickets in the latest Test and 16 in the three-match series.
Makhaya Ntini (5) gives South Africa three bowlers in the top 10.
The Proteas are also well placed in the batting rankings with Graeme Smith at No 8 followed by Jacques Kallis (10), Ashwell Prince (11) and AB de Villiers (12). Hashim Amla is No. 23.
Kallis remains way out in front as the world’s leading Test match all-rounder.
23 Mar 2009, 22:11 pm
#986 JL1: I have to say Boet, I saw Gert’s hand in the slowness of the phases, reminded me of the Boks at our worst.
Other than that the game was terrific.
I think SH pace will be an issue for B&IL, but they have time to prepare, and they have some great players.
23 Mar 2009, 22:11 pm

#999 grant10: See you Grant, will mail. Stuff happening here as well tonight!!
23 Mar 2009, 22:13 pm
#1003 cab: I typed in the Jan-Player 23 and nothing came up.
Cabernet, things are good, working hard, weather is wet, which by my low standards is good. Our Lions won well on Saturday as did the Might Whites.
How are you my friend?
23 Mar 2009, 22:14 pm
#1006 SodaJoe: The BL’s play their first match at the 30th of May I think. That is about the time of the S14 semis. Lets say we have two teams in the semis. Our players may be bruised and tired. That is very worrying.
23 Mar 2009, 22:15 pm
#998 K9 the Lion: King of Beasts:
Nie ‘n 23 nie
23 Mar 2009, 22:15 pm

just type in ‘player 23′, which is what PissAnt recommended this morning.
Lions did very well, feel skaam, had no time for them after stormers match.

He is a prick daily!
23 Mar 2009, 22:16 pm
Okay cheers all.
LIONS!!!!!!!!
23 Mar 2009, 22:17 pm
#1006 SodaJoe: Come now, he gave the Irish variation in their lineouts and some grunt in the set phases, he has nothing to do with what happens behind the scrum
23 Mar 2009, 22:18 pm
#967 spooner: Just in, so was this another brutally embarrassing thread?
Whenever i see big post numbers I get worried.
Told you the Sharks and Lions would win.
I am now putting some distance between me and the Desperate Househusband aka KayakBimbo, Clifton Speedo10, and Ms Cheltenham 1988. I have my sights set on MapoerPiet.
23 Mar 2009, 22:19 pm
#1014 cab: LOL. There are some diehards. Like me.
23 Mar 2009, 22:20 pm
#1017 JL1: JL – lineouts brilliant. Scrums good. Loose – ok. Tight-loose sloooooow ball.
23 Mar 2009, 22:20 pm
Right Bye all, will see whether its worth it to log in until the weekend.
The next BIG fight will be on Wednesday when Boshoff,s hearing will take place enjoy the negativity.
23 Mar 2009, 22:21 pm
#1020 SodaJoe:
yip you, skoppa and K9 thought they could do it, i thought they’d get mullered.
will always support the lions, but what a kak result v stormers.
23 Mar 2009, 22:22 pm
Geez that must be the worst rugby ad ever.
Bin it.
23 Mar 2009, 22:25 pm
#1022 cab: I think the Grungies are not bad, but the Lions had all the potential to beat the Stormers – couldn’t watch the whole game I was so the moer in.
23 Mar 2009, 22:26 pm
#1024 SodaJoe:
lol, well its caused skopskiet to apparently abandon keo.
liked some touches, but sure Peter Sellers spot in comedy is probably safe.
23 Mar 2009, 22:27 pm
Just watched the Jan player 23 ad on youtube for the first time.
After watching it I can safely say that this article by keo is a big hullabaloo about nothing.
23 Mar 2009, 22:27 pm
#1008 cab: Did this thread get out of control again?
23 Mar 2009, 22:28 pm
#1023 SodaJoe: yep, rubbish ad. Incredibly cheesy and corny. But it possesses nothing that keo infers.
23 Mar 2009, 22:29 pm
#1026 spooner: What did everyone get so hit up about, it’s just a kak ad that was made in 1984.
Oh I get it Hater said that it was accurate, GBS went crazy, Skops said that Hater was right, Cute Carnival mouse supported Skoppies. Grant flirted with his Princess which annoyed JL who then snarked at Spooner …..
23 Mar 2009, 22:33 pm
#1028 SodaJoe:
not really, keo and skop thinks it panders to a stereotype, they might be right, but is it that important? i dont think so.
as for intelligence, its highly overrated, and there aint anyone on this blog that has anything vaguely to offer in this dept, but its all relative.
as for banter, wisdom, opinions, knowledge, worldviews or experience – there’s plenty of that on offer which is interesting.
23 Mar 2009, 22:37 pm
Ag Cab, happiness is a collection of small joys strung together.
Keo is one of my pleasures and I have “met” more good than bad here.
As a guy that likes rugby, discourse and banter – you can do worse than hang out on Keo, although might be a little distracting for me in the afternoon when my attention span is pathetic.
23 Mar 2009, 22:39 pm
#1032 SodaJoe:
yip, cant say i disagree, its a very interesting forum, i argue with the okes, throw a strop now and again, dislike racism intensely and have a standoff relationship with 1 oke, but cant say i really dislike anyone.
23 Mar 2009, 22:46 pm
#1032 cab: Boet I have to leave. Bit of a hit and run. See you through the window.
23 Mar 2009, 22:48 pm
#1034 SodaJoe:
Later Soda.
23 Mar 2009, 22:48 pm
Only watched the ad now. Poor Jan, gets a raw deal I reckon.
Seems like a piss take ad to me.
23 Mar 2009, 22:52 pm
#1036 racheltjiedebeer:
lol, bit of a nothing, did you watch the sharks game?
23 Mar 2009, 22:52 pm
Not a crocs fan either.
23 Mar 2009, 22:56 pm
#1036 cab: I did. Happy for them. Even the Lions made me happy last weekend.
23 Mar 2009, 22:57 pm
#1029 SodaJoe: lol, nah, just a few individuals get overly sensitive on here and sometimes spoil ity for the rest.
Nothing serious today, just a few rehashed arguments about liberals, conservatives, freedom of speech, intolerance, racism… what you usually expect to find on a rugby blog.
23 Mar 2009, 22:59 pm
#1039 racheltjiedebeer:
did they play botes and daniels in the same backrow against force or bring in Van den bergh at 7?
yeah will try and watch both games, but have 24-hour delay with that mediazone.
23 Mar 2009, 23:02 pm
#1040 cab: I think so. Botes & Daniel definitely started. Why the 24 hour delay?
23 Mar 2009, 23:04 pm
KEO KEO KEO anybody there??????
Wake up
After a weekend of fantastic results for SA (both rugga and cricket) I was hoping for some happy feeling type offerings from you but instead we get a wind-up about a crappy advert. What a crock of shirt… Have you got effall say about rugby?? I come to this site to understand and debate the finer nuances of the game that I love from some of the informed bloggers but this tosh I can’t handle – see ya I’m going to eff off for a while. Hope you get your act together and post something worthwhile….
23 Mar 2009, 23:05 pm
#1042 racheltjiedebeer:
dunno, but for whatever reason, the frogs fall into this 24-hour delay, which is annoying when one wants to watch.
oh well, was a good weekend allround, rugby wins left right and centre and pulled 1 back in the cricket, now we just need a decider at 3-3.
23 Mar 2009, 23:09 pm
#1043 cab: You should get proxy switcher software. Watch it all live.
23 Mar 2009, 23:10 pm
#1045 racheltjiedebeer:
lol, will have to work that all out, too much effort.
later Mclovin.
23 Mar 2009, 23:14 pm
#1045 cab: Very easy. Even I could figure it out.
I’m also off. Sleep well young man.
23 Mar 2009, 23:29 pm
I have never read so much utter **** in my life. Keo is turning into some sort of lefty gaylord. Real rugby players dont give a toss about all this rubbish. If you wrote **** like that in the UK you would be laughed out of town. WHATS WRONG WITH A FAT WHITE MAN? Not every photo has to have a black in it, or a ***, or woman. SORT YOURSELF OUT or your country will be turn into a nation of soft centred benders. Be proud of who you are, tell the world. The Afrikaan’s have a great rugby tradition – you are the envy of the rugby world. So what what if you drink brandy and coke!!! I am engligh born and bred and it makes me both sad and angry to read this politically correct bullshit….. BE PROUD
24 Mar 2009, 01:28 am
#1047 jacarandauk: Dude, nothing to be proud of in that ad.
But beyond it being a very **** ad, nothing else comes to mind.
24 Mar 2009, 03:02 am
Cheesy and a bit weak maybe, but essentially a tongue in cheek send up! Had a bit of a chuckle, but not sure what all the fuss is about to be fair. Think too much has been read into this thing which is unbelievable considering what else is going on in the country!!
24 Mar 2009, 03:09 am
Who will captain the British Lions to South Africa?
Five big names pick their captain
Jeremy Guscott
Former Lions and England centre
Paul O’Connell – I think forwards make better captains than backs because they are always in the thick of things. He’s done a good job for Munster and he fits the bill to be a Lions captain, following in the footsteps of the two best in Martin Johnson and Willie-John McBride.
Brian Ashton
Former England coach
Brian O’Driscoll – Whenever Ireland have been in trouble he’s led from the front and has stood up to be counted. He also has something to prove after the last tour to New Zealand and still has the desire to make his mark in world rugby as proved by the Grand Slam success.
Geoff Cooke
Former Lions and England manager
Brian O’Driscoll – some say that he is not the player he was, but he has done nothing wrong in this Six Nations Championship. I think that it’s best leaving Paul O’Connell to concentrate on being a lock. There is so much more to being a Lions captain and O’Driscoll has the experience to handle all the pressure.
**** Best
Former Lions assistant coach and England coach
Paul O’Connell – he’s not the shoo-in everyone thought he was for the captaincy before the Six Nations, but he’s following the example set by Martin Johnson in 1997 and he fits the bill perfectly.
David Sole
Former Lions prop and Scotland captain
Paul O’Connell – Ian McGeechan picked Martin Johnson in 1997 because he wanted a big player who the Springboks had to look up to. O’Connell is a big man in every sense of the word, he is inked into the starting XV and has the respect of all the players.

#1031 SodaJoe:
“happiness is a collection of small joys strung together” – beautifully said SJ !
Life is a journey – what you chose to carry is up to you, but it is hopefully worth noting that the simple mathematics of packing for a long journey are “the ugly stuff will always be heaviest”. Hence it is wise to set the ugly stuff down & take only the “small joys” with you as you move along – an infinitely lighter load, not to mention the space to collect even more as you travel
24 Mar 2009, 03:30 am
#1048 SodaJoe:
Amateur at best… rather embarrassing to say the least… Keo does have a point… it is the RSA rugby stereo-type many of the western world have of our fans… big, fat, dumb, alcoholics…
In saying that… leave the racial slant for the likes of Simnikwe/Malema etc etc… who could not sell their articles/political angles without it…
24 Mar 2009, 04:15 am
Keo got it right.
Racial ad yeah for sure… problem is only the black fellas see it. This is the funniest parody of how SA rugby fraternity is viewed. To honestly think the average guy other than the Jan Jans of South Africa see themselves or parallel themselves is a huge joke… a crazy ar$ed dutchie, nothing more and nothing less.
If the ad had a Dutchie and a Cullert strolling along throughout the ad as buddies then it wouldn’t be sending the overtly subliminal message…
CAB sent me on a journey yesterday when he mentioned Harry Einfield. I thought to myself that Vodacom/fone (whatever you call it) borrowed heavily on his style.
The Aussies had a stand-up comedian/actor years ago who sent up economic policy and society views…..his catch cry was,
“Stick wit me, coz I’m always in da black”.
His stage name was Earnie Dingo… yes he is an aborigine.
This thread really should be over by now.
24 Mar 2009, 05:53 am
#1053 RugbyRulz:
Harry Einfield, classic!
Glad Cab showed me that, I was watching Harry while most bloggers here were going on about nothing….
24 Mar 2009, 06:19 am
Nothing wrong with a klippies-en-kouk boepens white oom as the typical face of the yarpie fan. Right on the money. And no cultural cringe!
24 Mar 2009, 08:12 am
It’s interesting that for all the supposed “muscle” this site has and considering the number of posts on this blog, only 449 people have voted on the topic.
Seems that this site is not the heavyweight it supposedly is.
Other SA rugby sites usually have a few thousand votes on rugby topics, perhaps it’s because there’s too much politik bullsh1te going on here.
Like someone mentioned in one of the posts here yesterday, after such a great SA sporting weekend, the huge topic of discussion was some fictional cell phone advert character.
It’s time you give your users some sport news and opinions Keo, I am sick and tired of everything to do with SA rugby being dragged down into some racist conspiracy.
I for one am a bit bored with the way this site has regressed over the last year or so, it’s mostly the same old boring cliche ridden nonsense on most of the blogs. The few posts that are worth reading are becoming more difficult to locate inbetween the chatroom background this site has become.
24 Mar 2009, 08:25 am
#1056 modawg:
I agree.
The same people who go on here about equality, human rights and freedom of speech find issue with a simple TV ad.
It is a funny TV ad.
Nothing more and nothing less.
It is not the constitution of SA or the bill of rights.
It is not designed to be a portrayal of SA.
It is not a political statement.
It is a TV ad for a game called rugby.
No big deal.
It is nothing but light hearted fun.
24 Mar 2009, 08:44 am
It is a brilliant ad, it is not suppose to be taken seriously. I have the Jan, Jan, Jan stuck in my head every Saturday. People getting all PC again…
24 Mar 2009, 08:59 am
Jan is the guy that pays the exessive amount for a test ticket to see the Springboks play, he is an average guy with an average house and an average car…he just loves rugby and the Springboks and is willing to fork out the money to see them play live…
He is not a Racist!
He is a Fan!
And he is the guy that keeps people like Keo in business!
Talk about biting the hand that feeds you!
24 Mar 2009, 09:25 am
Big up to vodacom for projecting the demographic. Jan looks like the majority of SA rugby supporters, why should the ad be different then? To satisfy a couple of revolutionaries like the Watsons and Mr. Frolick and most recently Keo?
For too long Afrikaners have been ignored in the media, ironic since we still have huge buying power. Seeing waves upon waves of KFC adds showing predominantly English-speaking whites has been getting under my skin for a while now, and thus I’d reather starve than eat KFC.
Keo : I used to have grat respect for you, but maybe you are your like-minded Souties can get back on the ship and find a posting elsewhere in the British empire? You know, last in first out?
24 Mar 2009, 09:39 am
Thanks Vodacom,
For not choosing Keo’s Political correct face as the player 23. What about all the Janne out there if he got selected?
Great leggs on the girls though, all though Vodacom should have been more accurate and project cellulite upper legs with no calves – you know, like most of the woman in SA. I mean, it’s men that is beautiful and not like Jan, o.k.?
And next time, choose Nataniel’s face, with with Mandoza’s lips and Zane Kirchner’s hair, and then bring in Charmaine Gails shoulders wit Joost’s chest, and copy paste bismarck’s six pax with Percy’s butt, then you use the legs of Sipho from the makhatini vlaktes en the toes of Zuma.
Now that is inclusive.
Please, not Jan.
24 Mar 2009, 09:50 am
The only people that can take offense from the ad is the Lions. Why aren’t their team in it?

Aaahh hell, here he is again, vomitting out all sorts of ridiculous adjectives, branding everyone who disagrees with him as punk-***-twat-**** etc sheep, never wondering why people dont agree with him.
I wonder if he talks like this as well, or is it just a false sense of keyboard security.
Hilarious.

#1057 tight head: Hi Mate, Yeah, this site used to be interesting when most posts were about rugby and the diverse opinions expressed were mostly quite interesting, but now the whole personality seems to have changed. It’s like some chat room mostly and it’s becoming quite tedious to find the posts that are actually worth reading as most threads veer off at a tangent about something or another, not much stimulating rugby talk going on here nowadays. It’s a pity though because it was a good site once upon a time.

RW is a good mature rugby site with some kenners and good okes, problem is no-one says much.
At least here everyone has a go.
Say what you want about Keo, but its main draw is that it remains largely uncensored, apart from one stage where it got a bit conservative and dodgy, with what appeared to be some conservative populist blogging influence, which was a first.
However, from its inception and mostly consistently, nothing is off the cards for someone to have their say.

Will need to check Earnie Dingo out.

24 Mar 2009, 11:40 am
It is a bit of a storm in a teacup.
Imo it is a stupid and corny ad, but I do not think it really did much harm.
Most people that I talked to have not even noticed it or do not seem to care about it.
It is still interesting to see that 30% of people on Keo thinks it create a negative stereotype about SA rugby fans – It is quite a high percentage.
Perhaps Vodacom should take note of it – unless they think Keo bloggers are not representative of their target market – too sophisticated perhaps

24 Mar 2009, 11:44 am
Yeah, Keo site has gone for a ball of **** in the last 2 years or so… it’s all these hateful race-related threads… the race oriented and politico bloggers…
Time we took the site back to where it once was, flatly ignore (and I mean stone dead) the politico’s.
The site does not have near the amount of active bloggers as before and some only post every now and then compared to their input way back when…
There’s also more rugby blogging competition out there now, compared to before…. so I recon Keo should re-think the attitude here….. otherwise we might just find another rugby “home”…. it’s not a threat, it’s a reality !
24 Mar 2009, 11:49 am
all that has happened is that the site has fluctuated, where mostly it represents the white afr male rugby supporter, there are increasing numbers of lefties coming onto the scene, who are termed political.
Keo himself is political, what i cant work out is why these rugby-crazed non-polictics come and cant get enough of the most political site on the block. go start your own if you dislike what others have to say.
tolerance.
24 Mar 2009, 11:51 am
Against my better judgement I’ve given this some thought.
I only saw one ad of about 1 minute long on youtube. And can’t seem to recall the part where they mention Jan’s political viewpoint or his drinking habits. Does he even speak in the ad.
Maybe he just a fat vegetarian.
Apart from his physique I see nothing of myself in Jan or Jan in me.
No doubt their are some ladies who wouldn’t mind a bit of Jan in them.

Doesn’t that mean we should also ignore Keo, because as far as I can see he is the one stoking political issues?
I have to agree that this site deteriorated recently!
24 Mar 2009, 12:07 pm
half of these okes are constantly starting fellow broeder societies or sites, and guess what not a single one of them ever takes off cos they either fight with one another or get bored with one another.
Reckon i’ve been here longer than most, and ppl come and go, the average half-life of a blogger is probably a year or two, and yet the site remains principally the same, as driven by its author who was the oke that exposed draadtrek, supported the watsons, called for transformation, etc, etc.
This is the one site where the author does not pander to his readership, he often insults and provokes them, and yet for some bizarre reason it is and has remained by far the most popular. Why is that?
and yet the conservatives continue to try and shape it to their image, and try to subdue and ban those who disagree with them, even tho those on the other side find their views and chatroom maaitjie talk banal and inane.
tolerance.
24 Mar 2009, 12:09 pm
All chat sites have their peak and wane period and this one is waning. Currently twitter is booming but will crash and burn as all before it. The smartest way to keep a site going is to
STOKE the fire.
Keo does it nicely and his buddies keep it pumping.

#1076 cab:
The fact that there is lefties and righties, is the problem with this site at the moment.
It’s supposed to be a rugby site, with rugby chat. The only differences between bloggers should be provincial or National.
Some bloggers like the free for all policy on this site, and by now you should know not to come here for some decent rugby talk.
Anyway, my comment will make no difference to the fact that for some twisted reason people keep coming to this pathetic rugby site called “Keodotcodotza”.
Good luck to all that enter this site!

#1083 Snoek:
Snoek, i too dislike the term left and right, but do you have a better shorthand term to describe the disagreements on this site and have been central to it from the beginning? This is not a new phenomena, okes get the hump and bugger off and some return and others do not. This site has continued to grow in popularity, some characters go and new one’s come in.
i have 2 questions:
1) why is it that those that ***** about politics do so on a 1000+ political thread with countless other rugby threads to comment on?
2) Why does this site remain so popular despite having such a politically motivated author?
24 Mar 2009, 12:36 pm
Politics have always been part of parcel of South African rugby and it will remain so in the future.
So, there is no hiding from it – even during so called “decent” rugby talk it will rear it’s head one or other time – we will just have to live with it, there is nowhere to run – it will follow.
As Cab has said above “tolerance ” is the key.
24 Mar 2009, 12:42 pm
The SA government FUNDS rugby in South Africa so therefore it has a decidedly onerous interest.
24 Mar 2009, 13:43 pm

this is a ridiculous article… maybe something one could expect in mid-december, but not mid-super 14!!

#1082 Snoek:
my sentiments exactly … i think i’ve been 2 or more years on the site and have formed a “friendship” with quite a few guys on here (if i can call it that) without me ever meeting them
but
there were days that i logged out when i were gladly doing so.
but, that said
i keep coming back because rugby is in my blood (and i believe its the case with every single person on here)
and truth be told, although the journalism on this site are sometimes appalling,
this must be the rugby site on the internet with the best layout.
i’ve tried to go to other sites, but because i’ve blogged on here, i find other sites really frustrating!
on the whole jan issue … so what if most of our bok supporters look like that? personally i think its a brilliant idea to use someone like that … the type of person depicted in the advert (boep, bald, white) was always seen in the past as the brannas drinking, racist type. what this advert depict is a (maybe) brannas drinking, but definately fun loving guy who loves bok rugby almost as much as i do!
so what if he has a boep, or is bald, or white for that matter … jeez, if we all had to be hunks to support the boks, they would not have many supporters, would they?
24 Mar 2009, 15:51 pm
Keo must be such a tight ***. I find the add funny and so do my friends. Why is everything about race. Cant Vodacom make an add where the main character is white. Grow up. You probably are a very little insignificant man inside.
24 Mar 2009, 15:59 pm
#1083 cab: #1084 Robzim: So I started reading Keo in mid-1997. Then started posting around RWC. (For some context).
Those that don’t like the site feel free to go somewhere else, start your own blog (WordPress is not too complicated – you may get rich).
If you treat this blog as an afternoon in the pub watching rugby and shooting the breeze with mates you’ll be fine.
Those that want an exclusive rugby, South African site – maybe RuggaWorld is it.
For me I like the global nature and the free-wheeling posting. And yes some are very irritating & boring – on both ends of the spectrum – easy enough to ignore.

Sodajoe is such a sophisticated name. Guess you cant see the humor in a name like Baksteen Boys. My name in Testrugby.com fantasy game. If you read so much into a name then who is the one judging a book by its cover. Exactly what Keo did. Why is Jan a racist and an alcoholic? We never see this in the add. But because people like Sodajoe and Keo judge things on the surface they come up with the wrong conclusions

Its very simple. Tolerance.
Don’t read a posters comments if they irritate one.
Dont moan about politics on a political thread.
Go pick a rugby thread and speak rugby.
Dont moan about keo and all the politicos on Keo.
Go create a site for like minded ‘decent’ sorts.
I should care if ppl speak about hofmeyer or the latest nightowl flirt session, but dont try and ban ppl or sit like some f’ing ou tannie and try and report them.
24 Mar 2009, 17:20 pm
I would personally say that tolerance should extend to this dumb-*** advert too, but it seems such is the total lack of tolerance so continually exerted by the conservative white rugby majority in SA against those who happen to disagree, that perhaps keo is right and no tolerance should be extended, since it would seem they certainly show none.

Keo often puts forward a white minority viewpoint, but its often a south african majority viewpoint.
These selfsame upholders of moral virtue hellbent on banning ‘troublemakers’ (as one Mr Nelson Mandela was once called before being held out as their hero) grab onto those civil liberties like drowning men for all they are worth as time progresses and tolerance runs out.
One sees it already, afriforum has some of the keenest civil liberty minds on the planet, they know the new constitition backward. Where were these libertarians of fairness a generation ago? F’ck me, its the only major transformation thats taken place. A miracle.
24 Mar 2009, 18:13 pm
Hater, CC, KhoisanBoy, ET, Yliad, etc etc
Let them have their say.
They do not like the springbok, they do not like the white majority opinion.
They have every right to dislike the springbok and all that it stands for. Others have every right to disagree, but the problem is when these okes all try and gang-up and ban or suppress these dissenting views or try and make these ppl feel insane or inadequate for expressing a dissenting view.
Rubbish. You fools are not going to change minds by banning ppl, rather by engaging with them and trying to show some tolerance. This is obvious.
But unfortunately there remain the brainwashed okes whose kops are too small to even entertain these ideas.
Why do you think Mandela and the ANC was banned? Do you fink he banned himself.

I am English speaking and happen to like the Jan advert (despite being left leaning). But whether I like the ad or not is not relevant here.
Keo has the right to criticise the ad and you have the right to criticise Keo.
I don’t mind being called a Soutie (and yes I know its origin)
I do mind anyone implying that I am less South African than my Afrikaner countryman
If someone hates the Jan ad for whatever reason. Live with it. He is allowed to. Keo is very South Africa. Just because he critcises the old cabal does not mean he is less so.

1200 posts and still climbing,
so much for these dedicated rugby lovers who are all going off to join RW and talk only rugby.
How come they not all hogging the numerous rugby threads instead of Jan Pierewieting around on here for 1200 posts two days running solid on their dainty tip toes.
They don’t want to talk rugby, they are entrenched hook line and sinker in their ideological warfare, even those that have skipped the country are still Jan Pierewieting for all they are worth.
Cabs quite right, they just love the controversy and simply cannot stay away, and good on keo he plays them up exactly for the lekker soos n krekker Jan Pierewiets they are.

Jan Du Preez
Jan Spies-lol
Jan Vermeulen of Jan Dysel

Jan Matfield

So ook is ek nie soseker of Jan Habana sy spelpeil gaan herwin nie. Jan Ndugane speel net sulke lekker rugby deesdae.
24 Mar 2009, 21:00 pm
Wow, this silly thread is still going.
I see some people are calling for tolerance. Very Noble.
Only time you can’t be tolerant is when someone is racist. There has been a lot of blatant and unbridled racism, particularly from the so-called ‘lefties’ lately (chiefly Cuito Carnivale, KhoisanKing and hater).
That is not to be tolerated. And if you disagree, check out the Constitution of SA.

Die laerskool jufrou vra die kinders moet die volgende dag aantrek om ‘n dorp voor te stel.
Die volgende dag is dit kleure en geure soos almal veskillend aangetrek is, behalwe Jannie, hy is kaalgat.
So vra die juffrou almal watter dorpe hulle voorstel, Sannie het Jakarandabloeisels op haar kop, so sy stel Pretoria voor.
Pietie het lemoenbloeisels gedrapeer op sy hemp, so hy stel Zibedela voor, maar die juffrou wil nie vir Jannie vra nie.
Gertjie het ‘n swart streep oor sy rug, so hy stel Swartruggens voor.
Pietie stamp so aan Jannie en sê “Jannie ek het jou mos gesê, die juffrou gaan nie die marble in jou hall raak sien nie.”

Tolerance is ingrained in any progressive society.
It is a mark of the society’s progress.
If there is a single characteristic that marks the bigot, racist or backward supremacist out its intolerance.
And the worst of the lot is that many of the ppl that call for the report buttons are our educated lawyers, our supposed enlightened educated ones, what a joke. if thats the lawyers, extrapolate out the rest.

Jan gee so n sagte poepie en sê: ‘strafskop vir my, 10 – 07′
San laat loop ook met n ligte enetjie en sê: ‘ strafskop, 10 elk’
Direk daarna gee San nog een en sê : ‘skepskop!’ ek loop 13 – 10 voor…!!’

Jannie se hand is eerste op: “Niks juffrou, die geweer se geraas het die ander twee laat wegvlieg.”
Juffrou: “Die antwoord waarvoor ek gesoek het was eintlik twee, maar ek hou van die manier waarop jy dink.”
Jannie: “Ek het vir juffrou ‘n vraag. Drie vrouens stap in die straat en eet roomys. Een knibbel liggies aan haar roomys, een lek dit op en af en die derde suig haar roomys. Watter een is getroud?”
Juffrou (effe verleë): “Seker die een wat haar roomys suig.”

#1321 SodaJan: hi soda…LOL…feel a sense of dread …it will pass…how you my man??

#1317 cab: Hey Cab, I’m just here for chat. Non-racial and primarily rugby chat. It would be boring to talk only about rugby. I join the thread where everyone else is.
No irony in that.
24 Mar 2009, 21:30 pm
#1293 TolerantJan: lighten up my friend. Every now and then it’s ok to be a little stupid. This will get boring soon, but right now it’s rolling and will go down as a legendary thread.
24 Mar 2009, 21:30 pm
#1322 carol: LOL…now you adding to my rolling on the floor laughing!!

#1293 cab:
They won’t get it as hard as you try, you will unfortunately never succeed in educating the highly educated, its those very masters degree models of enlightened society that promote and design gas chambers, atomic bombs, and highly sophisticated supremacy based models of racial segregation, they almost bought into it hook line and sinker before, just like they buying into Jan die onnoselike man in elke span right now.
They don’t unfortunately have a clue, and I sincerely doubt ever will.
So really I wouldn’t bother about it much further than one can, its not in anyone’s hand to educate the masses, or the severely dumbfounded, or especially the extrapolated lunacy of those esteemed higher echelons of higher learning that have taken their high ground seats of being the morality watchdogs of society at large.
Not a hope in hell I’m afraid to say.

Only wish I could understand the jokes!!

#1324 cab: #1329 wooden jan: Seriously you are 2 of my favorite Jans. I am surprised that you guys are niggling each other.
24 Mar 2009, 21:34 pm
#1321 SodaJan: Hi Sodajan have just realised you are “in the building” !!
24 Mar 2009, 21:34 pm
#1324 cab: You’re a good blogger Cab. A bit on the left in your leanings (akin to Robzim), but a sensible blogger. I think you have a good sense of right and wrong.
I’m firmly in the centre, possibly centre right. Don’t like the left wing extremists, don’t like the right wing extremists. All else goes, freedom of speech is to be promoted. But not hate speech. Trolling is also contrary to this site’s terms and conditions, I would think.
It’s the minority rabble on the extremes that bring this site down. if they step out of line, there has to be a penalty, or else where do you draw the line (considering our bill of rights outlaws hate speech)?
24 Mar 2009, 21:35 pm
#1333 OracleJan: Merci beaucoup.
24 Mar 2009, 21:35 pm
#1330 wooden jan:
but dont you see it.
what you consider to be non-political is political.
what you consider to be hate speech is not hate speech.
as i say i have no problem about the jan’s, the poepryk or the geriatric flirting – but give others that same tolerance, i.e. those one you mention who u wished to ban.
24 Mar 2009, 21:36 pm
#1335 SodaJan: Agreed – apologies to Cab. Let’s drop it and just enjoy this decent thread.
24 Mar 2009, 21:36 pm
Ag dit is lekker om ‘n Jan te wees.

24 Mar 2009, 21:39 pm
#1334 yliad:
u beat me to it, didn’t even read yours b4 the last post.
#1338 wooden jan:
spooner, i also like your posts, and most others on here, its nothing personal, i am simply saying ppl need to let others have their say without being branded lefties, commies, cuckoos, insane, haters, etc — actually no, i dont even have a problem so much with the name-calling — its when that pressure is collated and exerted by a populist mob-like majority who then call for bannings and get them.
24 Mar 2009, 21:39 pm
Hierdie Jan gan nou doe-doe en die ernstige Johnnies los om aan te karring !!

#1355 wooden jan: cheers mate
24 Mar 2009, 21:45 pm
#1353 grant10: Totally agree. How’s biz? Starting to turn with the interest rate drop?
Actually – with all the inbuilt stimulus for SWC and now IPL and whatnot, SA might surf the wave.
I hope so any way.
24 Mar 2009, 21:45 pm
#1338 wooden jan:
one must also let the trolls have their say. when TheTackler or StM or whoever u might put in this cateory provide their input, is there not a bit of spice and humour than the humdrum? diversity is the spice of life and tolerance makes it grow.
#1352 grant10:
lol, not you, dont listen, carry on.
24 Mar 2009, 21:46 pm
#1356 wooden jan: Bye bud.

24 Mar 2009, 21:48 pm
#1359 Grenache Jan: couldn’t agree more.
Texture is good.
Insane is more valuable than inane.
But now I am done with SodaJan. It was very, very funny. And well worth the giggle.
24 Mar 2009, 21:48 pm
#1355 wooden jan: Woodyjan, till later!
