    952 SAB

    Agree on that one.
    Also FdP (who is one of my favourites).
    Juan had a massive game imo.
    In fact the whole back line is a bit generous with the exception of Morne’.

    Damn but our standards have increased. Nice to have a winning team.

    Lady C what wifey thing?

    #953 Lady C modesty becomes you.
    While I haven’t seen any discussion regarding you anatomy,
    I must admit the comments regarding the “you” have been glowing.

    Of course never when you were around. 😉

    Wifey stuff entails –
    “Hi Darling, did you win? How many overs did you bowl,
    Oh I did not make any supper thought you might have eaten out….(Better not mention I was blogging).
    Would you like me to cook you something ? (fingers crossed he says no, phew he is not hungry)!!
    In a nutshell that is ‘wifey stuff’ 😆

    962 bul-a-bhloo

    Yes.

    We HAVE to build on this though. Hope we do not settle for the required bonus point (or two) on tour, but refine our scrums, and work on the quality of ball that goes out to the backs.

    We are in need of a creative back line coach IMO – someone like slapchips

    Full back needs to hit the line with pace and the right angles – remember Percy in that game in Paris under Mallet?

  • 969

    #965 Keo Superbru is tough.
    I am 2nd on one, 7th on another and about 50th on yours. Seem to get more points elsewhere.
    And that is a good thing for when you win it, bragging rights and all.

  • 970

    Carol you are above GBS, Pietman , me, Ed , you name it, at 39th spot, did you move up or down.

    superBul – wow sheriff was WAY DOWN….has he got the yellow cap this week??
    I must go and look now!!

    bul-a – Sadly I am very average generally but the boys here are very generous!!
    Being blonde is an advantage….

  • 973

    965

    Damn, did I lose 1st spot??? grrrrr that one kick Morne missed 🙁

  • 974

    Is that on Tri nations superBul?
    I was in the 60’s on Currrie cup!!
    I will have moved up, because I was below GBS for sure!! Oh happy day!
