The Proteas cricket team are currently doing duty over in the West Indies, no doubt enjoying their recent spanking of Australia and some island hospitality.

Of course they still make sure to check in with 2OV now and again, because their latest ‘Windies Tour Diary’ happens to feature a couple of sayings you might just be familiar with.

Now essentially AB de Villiers is cruising around asking the boys for predictions on the Boks versus Ireland this weekend, but if you pay close attention you’ll see the Gordon Stevens influence is very apparent.

We first discovered the man about a month back (HERE), although he has since made his account private. Easy fix guys, click ‘follow’ and wait for Gordo to accept.

Take a cruise through those links on the right in blue – basically our entire Gordon Stevens catalogue at your disposal.

Welcome to the club, you’re on board now.

So about these Proteas then, let’s see the kind of mischief they’re getting up to now.

Just check from around the 1:15 mark in the second video below, Morne ‘The Giraffe’ Morkel talking about how the boys are ‘pumped up like a wolf’, throwing in a howl for good measure.

‘Jaco Kriel – athlete, in the zone, out the zone, after the game chowing that calzone’ – you guys know where that one comes from don’t you?

A little refresher – Gordon Stevens posted a video of someone taking the piss out of him to his Instagram, and it looks like the Proteas took some inspiration from that video:

Take a look at that changing room canning themselves, starting from around the 1:15 mark – yes indeed, they’re all in on the good times.

Good luck over there in the West Indies lads, maybe throw in a little team #BOOM after you guys dismantle the Ozzies again tomorrow?

Thanks, G-Man
