When will we learn that beating the Aussies in cricket takes heart and discipline. And how can we ever defeat this formidable side?

Fortunately the SA side has some young and promising players capable of destructive hitting, that, and the fact that Jacque Kallis is hopefully not too far from retirement, we do not need selfish ego driven players such as him in the national team, so I believe we could still obtain the upper hand in the Aus-SA clashes, possibly even in this world cup if we learned our lesson from Saturdays game.

We have defeated them and WE WILL do so again. We won the series in South Africa and who will forget the Wanderes match? The heart is there but when De Villiers was run out, Gibs should have come @ number 3. We lost it there and then.

I think what really happened was that South Africa got used to the easy games like Scotland and the Netherlands there was no challenge and they didnt get the proper warm up games

Im startin to think that they will neva learn. We always implode when we are playing against the Aussies. It would be even more sad if it wasnt sooo true.

We need more big hitters like Adrian Kuiper and Lance Klusener were and a genuine spinner. We also seem to have lost the ability to play spin like we did in the past.

Win or lose, and I'm rooting for a SA win, the games are always good entertainment to watch.

The Aussies know how to psyche our guys up - and they fall into the same old trap. Also we have got an idiot captain. I mean- please - he won the toss and put them in - on a perfect batting wicket.

I had no guts to watch us bat. My fears where confirmed when by chance I passed TV and we were 9 wickets down.
Maybe our young team will learn and time will come when we feed them their own medicine!

I still believe that they can be beaten all we need to do is believe that we can. I think the SA side just do not believe in themselve, that is too bad cos I really believe in them.
