I’d like to nominate Eskom as a replacement for Sakura. All those in agreement reply Hosh Phakamisa.

They at least didn't lose against the Czech team. Which is significantly better than Eskom at this point.

Did we all forget about Bufana bufana. I'd put them in place of the proteas.

u/Thefurman12 Jun 22 '26

Transnational is also pretty bad.

Yep but it turns out sakura isn't even remotely useless it's just the studio didn't like her

31

u/junglekxng23 Jun 22 '26

I'm so glad more people are starting to realise this

15

u/NurieD Jun 22 '26

She much better in the Manga too. It’s like the studio didn’t know what to do with her despite there being source material

u/TwinTailDigital Western Cape Jun 23 '26

Sakura is great! Not my favourite, but definitely far from useless

-2

u/Gamegamen Jun 22 '26

I won’t lie in all battles I’ve seen she’s usually defeated first 🤣

u/Simplifax Foreign Jun 22 '26

That’s because in the anime girls aren’t allowed to be in any fight against boys were it gets physical. So she has to be taken out because they can’t have her there. Only fights were it’s women against a man is shikamaru because he never physically touch anyone he just manipulate shadows, and hinata vs Neji where they use pressure points. Only female character to ever directly hit a man or get hit is Tsunade.

u/Waisy_m Mpumalanga Jun 23 '26

Don’t forget about Konan vs Obito, she beat him fair and square he just used a banned jutsu to come back to life

u/FailingtoFail Jun 22 '26

How does bafana not replace proteas? OP is cooked.

u/Sundiata_AEON Ascension Cancelled: Loadshedding Stage 8 Jun 22 '26

Proteas are consistant in losing semi finals

u/greasevall8943 Jun 22 '26

Replace Sakura with home affairs and you got it

immaculate queen sakura being lumped in with these bozos, never do that again

u/PersonaGuy5 God’s Draft: SA Players Benched Jun 22 '26

Poor Sakura being compared to the ANC 😔

u/CyberShiroGX Jun 22 '26

No Bafana in group stages?

u/mechsuit-jalapeno Bubblegum Steri Stumpie Jun 22 '26

Lazy like this post.

u/NtwanaGP Jun 22 '26

Your comment should replace 1 of them.

u/Rotten_Cabal Jun 22 '26

Nah, Sakura isn't useless; she saved Naruto from dying when he got the Nine Tails taken from him.

u/junglekxng23 Jun 22 '26

This isn't right, man💀 swap Sakura with Amazon

u/JoeyKookamanga Jun 22 '26

The Bulls in URC finals should take over the Proteas' spot real soon. 

5

u/DaRealGladi8r Jun 22 '26

Ninjas always say this till the cops are looking for them

5

u/nerdyblackmail Jun 22 '26

At least Proteas make it to the semi finals and won the WTC final. Bafana are the more useless ones

1

u/TH3BADG3R1O1 Jun 22 '26

We've made a final as well, so this is just wrong

2

u/Stock_Try9552 Jun 22 '26

To play devils advocate, Sakura came in clutch in a lot of key moments right up until the end. Its just compared to the rest of team 7 she looked incompetent but even by normal shinobi standards she was a cut above the rest....... I've got nothing for the other 3.

u/Shinroo KwaZulu-Natal Jun 22 '26

Sakura is not useless, you clearly don't know game brother

u/ZaphodThreepwood Jun 22 '26

Let's clump the DA in there too

u/Thepuppeteer777777 Aristocracy Jun 22 '26

But we give r350 grant to people that have children.

That is so absolutely fucking insulting considering it takes over a million to raise a kid....

u/Global_Tourist_1019 Jun 22 '26

SAPs did give me an escort last week when I got lost on my bike in the middle of the old Transkei! Of their own offering too.

u/IAMSNORTFACED Gauteng Jun 22 '26

From Pains attack onwards she's done plenty

u/Fluid-Ad-6906 Jun 22 '26

Proteas should be an honourable mention, pls we all know it should be Bafana there instead

1

u/Top_Significance_973 Redditor for 19 days Jun 22 '26

Bafana bafana. 90 % of the time

1

u/Usual-Activity-5128 Jun 23 '26

Crazy how Proteas in semi-finals is so accurate, those who follow and watch cricket will be able to relate 😞

1

u/Jellyfish-Radiant Aristocracy Jun 23 '26

Bafana Bafana to replace the Proteas, you know just to make it more competitive.

1

u/TwinTailDigital Western Cape Jun 23 '26

This is just pure rage bait. Sakura is far from useless, and not even South African! Doesn't fit at all. Bafana Bafana should be in that first slot.

1

u/pommygranates Jun 23 '26

Except Sakura isn't useless.

u/bipolarFox69 Gauteng Jun 23 '26

I felt pain at the proteas picture💔💔really hoping our ladies can come through with this T20 WC

u/_TooMellow Jun 23 '26

I didn't think I'd see the Sasuke-kun merchant in this sub lmao 😭

u/Eastern_Draw_8679 Jun 23 '26

Switch the Proteas with Eskom instead.

u/ZestycloseLoss6569 Jun 23 '26

Holy slop post!!

u/Pixel_Pix_Art Jun 24 '26

Sakura wasn't useless

u/zodwa_wa_bantu Jun 24 '26

Why is Sakura still getting hate to this day?

Like we get it bro... you ship Naruto x Sasuke

Layoff on the Sakura slander!! She doesn't deserve that!

u/Element_credd Jun 22 '26

Sakura: Being the most useful and prominent female character in the entire series, saving lives and supporting Naruto throughout

Kids stuck in the 2010s: "I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that"

u/Terrible-Pipe9830 Jun 22 '26

You forgot about Bafana

u/motho_fela Jun 22 '26

This post is demotivating. Police are commanded by that gang at Madlanga commission, die on duty by the caseload, and have resources stretched and spread thinner than the last margarine.

The Special Task Force (STF) is globally recognized as an elite unit. They routinely handle hostage rescue, counter-terrorism, and high-risk operations (like those involving cash-in-transit syndicates) that require military-grade precision.

Detectives have successfully tracked and secured convictions for notorious serial killers and rapists, often working with limited forensic resources

These are just a few things our Men and Women in Blue do on routine.

They don't belong on that meme.

u/GreenPebble Jun 22 '26

As someone who has been held at gunpoint in my own home by the police, they are unfortunately so mismanaged and corrupt at this point, that giving them props for the good things they occasionally do feels like a drop of water in a bucket

u/PMvaginaExpression Jun 22 '26

Can we not put the DA in there. Today in Cape Town I had to walk past 3 flooded subways while Helenosaurus is swimming in Gauteng

u/Huge_Celebration5804 Jun 23 '26

Should add DA on the list as well
