Taken from a Medium article titled 'The Anatomy of Sports Misery' - When near-success can sting more than perpetual failure https://t.co/rzsYXopCec I wasn't aware that a Misery Index existed in American sport. Fans of certain rugby teams can see truth in these excerpts...

@ahunter197 It would take him out of the limelight of most Bok supporters. They just tend to be a vile lot for to some players. Also maybe a new Coach can broaden his skillset that much more. Before this season started I had an issue with his grit but it seems that's been resolved.

Reckon this would be a good move for Evan. Sorry Stormers.
🇿🇦 Evan Roos to Saracens? Pros: Explosive athlete, relentless carrier, breakdown disruptor, versatile back-row, world-class pedigree, emerging game-changer, future asset, physical power to replace Willis. Cons: contracted with DHL Stormers until 2027 ( https://t.co/AzPIruXeU8)

If you were born in 70s / 80s you'll fondly remember the movies John Candy acted in. A documentary worth watching. A really decent, warm,generous and kind-hearted bloke.

I'd you've got a squad jammed with the best test players in the world. With World Cup medals dripping off them like 90s rappers. Then the solution/ fix must be elsewhere.

@adrian_slabbert Plumtree is hopeless, but the ownership and the culture at the union is even more hopeless.

@adrian_slabbert If the Sharks can keep big players in SA I'm sure Rassie will feel fine, we have had 2 sides in the top 4 of the URC every year so things in that aspect are fine. how many seasons of super rugby did SA have 3 or more sides in the playoffs?

@adrian_slabbert The stars can only get themselves up for games in the green and gold. That’s fine, just cash out in Japan then. Allow the Sharks to move forward with the young guys and build a new identity.

Plumtree OUT! Also surely its a concern for Rassie the Sharks and Lions are this poor. Not good at all when you look at the bigger picture

Lions are diabolical. Just start again with a different ground, coaching staff and leadership
