I've seen a few members around here who, as they aren't English, but are equally not South African, are "supporting" South Africa in the rugby world cup tonight.

Why is this the case? Is it no more than a joke?

Because I don't think so.

In my opinion it's quite sad to go against the team that put you out of the competition, and it's even sadder when I see members of the Home Nations (Scotland, Wales) supporting South Africa.
