Hi dont think the Proteas choked as that would mean they had the game in their hand and let it slip we clearly saw against England and New Zealand they were way out of their depth on the day what Van der Merwe is doing in the limited overs team is anyone's guess 20/20 maybe ...and Duminy needs to forget about the heroics down under and get back down to business .....We scream number one this and that but then moan and complain when we dont perform new coach new captain new philosophy....

Despite what Pollock says, the EVIDENCE is there and it points to the fact that the South African cricket team ARE actually chokers. Time and time again. Saying that they are not simply isn't going to change things - winning a tournament or two will.

You bunch are pathetic, how can you call yourself a supporter if you only support your time when they win. Limited overs cricket has an element of luck to it and on any given day the best team may not win. To get a true reflection you need a round robin format but this is not what the marketeers of our world like. Either support another team or stop whining about our team!

Pollock is just trying to cover up the dismal performance by his former teammates, as he was also part of the previous teams that broke our hearts.He needs to state things as they are,South Africa choked.

Unfortunately it would appear that the only thing the Proteas are currently really good at is bragging. This seems to have come back to bite them in the nether regions (or is it the leg - Graeme Smith's limp was impressive). Somebody has to stop telling them "you're the man; what a winner!" and start instilling some true team spirit otherwise the Proteas are going to end up being out and out losers.

Shaun Pollock , please be honest with yourself. The team's performance needs to be placed at the feet of the coach. Why is it every time the team get kicked out of a major tournament , then somebody stands up for Mickey Mouse and says that there is no need to panick. We as South Africans and loyal supporters of the team , want results and no more excuses. The fact is that Mickey is not the right person for the job and the empty trophy cabinet states that fact. Get someone who can really motivates the team , because we have the players to do the job , but the belief isn't there when it comes to the big stage. Ray Jennings is the man for the job and he allready proved that fact with the win in West India.

Baggering and Insults does not and will never work. I think it's time we consider the real facts and that is Our Cricket team needs a bit of Skit Skop en dinges! As for Mickey Arthur he needs to shake hands pickup his cheque and move on. His done what he could but it's not enough. We need fulfilling tournaments all year round so that we can be prepared for these sorts of Big Events. I think Our Bowling let us down more than the batting on the day we lost to England. Some of the Players repeated get's given the chance to Play just because of their Names but not if they are inform. Yes Chockers or whatever you want to call these okes they clearly aren't doing the job worst of all in their own Backyard! Reminded me of the World in the West Indies. How about we get a Coach that can actually drill the players instead of the Players voicing their opinions like its a free for all. Graeme Smith lead as a Captain but the others listen to their IPods and clean their Oakleys instead of working on their Mental and Physical ability.

To depart the competition in the first round and at the bottom of our group. The trophy cabinet sits empty. No titles for 11 years. The track record is evident to a blind man. How can you even try to defend this history... by denial. Get real these guys are (so called) professionals getting paid for non delivery. In business they would be fired.

Hows Mitchells Plein today, go support your precious All Blacks we dont need your kind here. Most of you obviously do not know the meaning of the word choke anyway. Plus we actually have won something. Get your facts right retards

Egg in the FACE!!! is riight. How many tophies do get for being number one in the world? Micky mouse should be held accountable to the cricket public. Get someone who really knows the game . . not someone who think he knows.
