In reply to 2summers. Green and gold are the South African sporting colours, whether athletics, cricket or swimming. And yes, you should learn the South African anthem and also understand what the lyrics mean. It's beautiful.

No one boos the refs? No one whistles angrily? That is the single most amazing fact about South African rugby.

Nice. Teeny point: we became a democracy in 1994. Have been independent since we became a republic in 1912…
