Morris before the final
"In the (pre-match) warm-up I felt rubbish,” Morris acknowledged, “my back felt stiff, nothing felt right. (But) for some reason it just clicked, I ran in, bowled my first ball, it hit the deck and it swung ...very lucky it came out beautifully.”
ON LUNGI
“Lungi will be playing for South Africa for many years. He’s got a very good brain on him. The pressure never left the Dolphins.”
The joke that the Titans threw games. Also The Cape Times and in particular Zaahir Adams had the nerve to question the push for Titans tranformation too.
BOUCHER
I don’t get paid to look after other franchises, I get paid to look after the Titans,” he said. “There’s a lot of communication within the squad; I ask the guys how they feel, if they’re a bit tired, I sent those guys back, they missed the Durban game, they were happy they’d pick themselves up, train (in Centurion) and prepare properly for a game which was a big semi-final.
“I wasn’t worried about what was said, what upset me was the way in which it was said, to insinuate that we were throwing games.
"I’d never walk onto the field, even take this job, if I was prepared to throw a game. That upset me quite a bit. I’ll defend that decision until I’m blue in the face, but that’s gone now, hopefully, you look at it now, and see it was the right decision.”
