No sympathy for SAA at all when they skew the rules re stand occupancy at JNB so much in their favour.
Unlike normal airports where aircraft on immediate turn round get priority for pier served stands over those that arrive and are then towed off stand for the day, SAA and ACSA between them allocate stands on the basis of total passenger throughput for each airline, which gives SAA the advantage over smaller carriers.
Play fair in SA and people might be more supportive of your gripe in LHR
