On the back of his controversial statements on the state of South African rugby, Luke Watson bares his soul and speaks ‘exclusively’ to iafrica.com’s Contributing Editor Dan Nicholl…

Dan: Your comments have caused quite a stir, Luke — and generated plenty of media coverage, even by your standards…

Luke: I know, Dan, and it’s been a difficult week. I’ve been misquoted and misunderstood on previous occasions, but never like this, and I’d like to try and set the record straight.

Dan: Alright, let’s get straight into some of the more controversial claims attributed to you. You hit out at ‘Dutchmen’ as being at the root of the problems with South African rugby.

Luke: Correct, Dan, and they are. I’ve uncovered an insidious network of Dutchmen who’re intent on bringing down South African rugby. Marco van Basten, Ruud Guillit and Ronald Koeman are key figures, and I think Richard Krajicek, Ryan Ten Doeschate and Ruud van Nistelrooy are involved as well. I don’t know why, but I intend to find out, and get these Dutchmen out of South African rugby.

Dan: So you weren’t making a crude reference to Afrikaans people, then?

Luke: Not at all! Some of my best friends are Afrikaans. I watch ‘7 de Laan’ with Victor and Fourie whenever we’re in camp together, and I’ve got Die Campbells and Kurt Darren on my iPod.

Dan: Okay; what about wanting to vomit when you wear the Springbok jersey?
