Lol what? There were no such chants at all. He'd toured here between 2005 and 2006/7 when he played for the world XI and didn't get any crap like that either.

Australian crowds can be awfully boorish but believe me they're no worse than what you get in England when it comes to how they treat visiting players.

The barmy army was mildly amusing 20 years ago but these days they're just a pack of boors in matching unwashed shirts

I suspect it was the voices in your head
\No boss.

There aren't crowds in the world more boorish than Aus. The aussie, aussie, aussie chants... the "insert name" is a w*nker... the undeniable racism...

I find English crowds to be more mickey taking fancy dress jovial nonsense than just crass bogan'ish insults.

But hey... agree to disagree.

Saffers are still not out of it I guess as they will find it slightly easier to bat in the afternoon tomorrow. With Philander to come, Cook & de kock need to make a big partnership.

Aussie crowds can be awful, not denying that.

Good absorbing day’s cricket. Aus didn’t let up, best they bowled all series with everyone pitching in and the last hour probably ended it for South Africa. South Africa still need to make some changes to the batting line-up but who do they drop? Everyone except Amla contributed at one point but only de Kock and Faf will end up averaging more than 40 for the series though Cook still has an outside chance of achieving that.

Proteas looked like they were gonna edge ahead during certain periods in the game but their middle order batsmen let them down.

It's really funny watching Australian's either pretend or absolutely forget how they treat the best players of the opposition, thinking "Oh they're loved here!" and not remembering the booing, the chants and the way the media acted.
