Are the Springboks the laughing stock of the internet after their World Cup rugby defeat at the hands of Japan on Saturday?
Well, they are if these memes are anything to go by. The joke has not been lost on the rest of the world, obviously!
What started as amazement soon turned into images of our shame rolling in from all corners of the globe. A world of punny, funny and some downright humiliating images.
Let’s face it, the internet loves nothing better than a #FAIL
From the surreal to the funny to the not-so-ha-ha…
And we were forced to laugh with them, thanks to 1 man!
Now, credit where credit is due – he was the perfect fall guy.
And people made the most of it, even bringing in some old, familiar faces…
Bad language was used, but still we had no choice but to turn the other cheek.
While a trip down memory lane was tough, we could not even blame our arch-enemy – the
referee!
Victor, Victor, what did you do?
Heyneke forced us to start looking at our past heroes in a new light!
He made tough SA men understand their own feminine side and forced 1 of the most graceful animals in the wild
to go into hiding.
