Scotland prop Pierre Schoeman is being mocked for this 'dive and half during today's clash with South Africa at Murrayfield.
One fan wrote: "Can Schoeman still play for Bafana Bafana if he has already played rugby for Scotland?"
Another added: "Oscar Nomination?… I think not"

Another, being a bit more serious, chipped in, saying: "I absolutely hate the diving culture that’s creeping it’s way into rugby with head contact. You seem to see appeals or hand waving every game in an attempt to get the TMO to check. Having said that, that absolutely should be have been checked as that is a possible red card in the premiership at the moment."
A different fan added: "Ah. The good old sniper in the stands, taking Schoeman out."

“This is not soccer” – Rugby’s Top Five Biggest Divers Have Been Named
#5. Stuart Hogg
What they said: "He often overdoes the theatricality to the extent that not even the officials will give him a second look. Look back to the South Africa vs Scotland game a couple years back when he flung himself into the 'Beast' just to be laughed off by players and fans around him."
Our verdict: Nobody will forget that infamous telling off he got from Nigel Owens against South Africa during the 2015 Rugby World Cup. As the old saying goes, mud sticks.
#4. Bryan Habana
What they said: "A great example of this was for Toulon against Saracens in the Champions Cup where he ran into 'No-Arms Magee' Owen Farrell and threw his legs up in the air to win a penalty with one of the worst dives in European history."
Our verdict: Habana is one of the best wingers of all-time, but it's a fair assessment that he occasionally was a bit dramatic with his on-field shenanigans
#3. Johnny Sexton
What they said: "Jonathan Sex'Robot, as Squidge Rugby lovingly refers to him, is a serial diving offender with notable instances against Scotland, England and Wales throughout the last few years."
Our verdict: Not convinced. The Ireland fly-half is smashed regularly and there aren't any clear examples of him diving.
#2. Morgan Parra
What they said: "He's also a grade A diver. He's from the Habana and Hoggy school of 'throwing yourself at a big forward and hoping for the best' after he hoofs the ball."
Our verdict: He's a little s**t. Can't argue with anything that they said.
#1. Yoann Huget
What they said: "Whether it was from kick chases, tackles that were a fraction out of time, or flailing around in rucks he shouldn't be involved in, Huget was the crème de la crème of fakers."
Our verdict: "Spot on. The worst of all-time."
