@grootblousmile – Hopenlik kan ons nou bo aan die punteleer bly om ‘n home semi te kry – maar nog nie happy oor die WP span nie. Morgan Newman impress my glad nie.
@SA Barbarians – After tonight it looks like it will be WP, Vrystaat, Lions and Griqua;s in the semi’s.
@Loosehead – What about the Sharks?
Sorry, lovely long phone call….But the Bulls did not win!!! Huh!
Well done K9 and Eddy!
@K9-MonsterLeeu – Geluk man, ek is bly vir julle, dis hoog tyd.
Jake en Kevin gaan Tvl weer die Tvl maak wat ons geken het van ouds.
Wat daai twee manne aanpak, sal werk, hulle ken nie van opgee en verloor nie.
Ek laaik dit……
Volgende saterdag:
Cheetahs vs Lions
WP vs Bulle
Soos Bulle vandag gespeel het, moet hulle hul regmaak vir ‘n slagting volgende week op Nuweland.
Vraag: Wat het geword van die bulle se slotfabriek? Hulle kon nie ‘n lynstaan wen vanaand nie.
@Karen – Hi Karen, just saw your greeting!
@Karen – End of the season for them and the Bulls. 😆
@carol – LOL its fine Carol 🙂
Loosehead – I will rather not say anything because rugby is such a weird game – anything can happen within a week
@Loosehead – 215
Good comment 🙂
@bdb – Lulu gaan hulle straf.
214@Karen – Ja jong… groot game komende naweek tussen WP en die Bulls… Bulls het nie angels in die back line sonder die Bokke nie…. en Bulle is gans te lig op slotte, sonder Vic & Bakkies.
WP behoort te wen…. maar onthou, die Bulle is hul bogey-span…. hehehe
Well I am out of here for the evening. Have a good one – Congrats PROVINCE 😉 and Lions. Will see you guys tomorrow sometime.
@carol – thanx Carol. Ed and me will do the leeuloop for u 🙂
@bdb – Bulle moet net die semi’s haal, soos jy se….as die MANNE eers terug is, is dit weer g’nite nurse.
@Pietman – ja Pietman. Gehoor van paar groot name ook oppad. Hoop hulle kom reg.
@grootblousmile – LMGA – hey die WP se agterlyn is ook nie so great nie – bietjie light weight maar die de Jongh outjie nie te bad vir ‘n senter nie. Ja gaan ‘n lekker game wees. Lekker aand vir julle – ek is outa here
Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuussssssssssssssssssssssssssss
@K9-MonsterLeeu – I must to and You Tube this…..
@Ed_the_Lion –
@K9-MonsterLeeu –
Where’s Supa? Hope he’s okay 🙄
@Ed_the_Lion –
@K9-MonsterLeeu – Wie is Supa?
A good evening to you all. Great weekend for me… 2 wins AND, and I finally came out tops in a fierce bidding war on e-bay. All in all very productive and mighty chuffed with myself.
