Bok coach Peter de Villiers has told the press that he will "stand by" Schalk Burger after he was handed an 8 week suspension by the IRB citing commissioner for "an act not in the spirit of the game"(Not mentioning the eye gouging in the official review). This may be a hint from the Springbok camp that they wish to appeal the decision which will see the Springbok flanker missing the entire of the Tri-Nations. Well good luck, as much as this journalist loves and respects Burger, he feels that the actions fit the sentence.
