    @AB Bullsbok

    Thanks dude. Lions can come up the log I think. Seems they are playing well, just not finishing!
    Minnie seems someone Ed can ‘hang his hat on’. If he continues like this then looks like a Bok possible, maybe even probable. Our midfield is lacking penetration, maybe desire?
    Unfortunately only got the one CC game this weekend. Drats……

    @grootblousmile

    Colour scheme looks like your bitong recipe 🙂
    Can see you hand in this, as long as it’s not different shades of blue!
    Just kidding!
    I think it’s great – and I mean it.
    Only thing I would add (if it were me) are the logs and fixtures (3N, CC and maybe even the NZ and AB) on the home page.
    Thanks for all the effort. Appreciated.
    I know you are behind a lot of it, so congrats to you. Whom do I also need to congratulate?

    Whooow after the stress of the Bulls game my grand children raided my house, wife sick so i had the dishes and the house to clean up, at least i could watch the Lions suffering. Well maybe for Lions supporters its not so encouraging but for me at least they showed enterprise. Much fewer balls was kicked into kingdom come, but then again they lost.

    Bulls must back them self we can run the ball, with all this hyped up youngsters like Hougaart, vd Heever, Watermeyer , Zane we must give them a chance, its a crime not to try with them.

    GBS,

    Gaan eerder op die Bull site. Alles is mooi daar ook. Jy gaan siektes kry op WP se site. 😆

    @Supa Die Bloubul

    @carol

    Yeh I noticed, expected it and can’t blame you!
    I’m sure there are many who are dying to translate for you!
    One thing in life is to have good friends. They can either be material (i.e. those you know by actual sight) or etherial (those you know from the internet).
    Some others I’d like to experience ‘nirvana’ are Grant 10, Puma, LH and TH or any others that are sports-people. But never mind, most of the people I ‘aspire’ to are already here 🙂

    184 @KingPaul – die blog kon nie glo die WP is bo die BB op die log nie, toe gooi hy dit as ‘n ‘error’ uit ?

  • 192

    193@OCO – Cheers Osama the Sand Flea

  • 197

    OK cheers manne eks ook uit hier! Geniet die res van die aandtjie.

  • 198

    Nou ja, as daar volgende naweek geen verrasings is nie, behoort die log so te lyk na die eerste helfte van die CB afgehandel is:

    Sharks
    GW
    WP
    Bulle
    Cheetahs/Lions

    Dink in die 2de helfte gaan Bulle, Sharks en WP veg vir die 2 semi’s, en GKW, Cheetahs en Lions gaan veg vir die vierde plek.

    @bdb – Jy bedoel seker dat WP , Sharks en Bulle vir home semis gaan uitveg en die 4de spot sal uitgeveg word deur Kwas, Leeus en Chhetahs. Darem funny in S14 speel hulle flat out vir die houtlepel, as die Kwas die semis haal moet hulle die S14 franchise skuif na die gat met Naka as hulp afrigter ipv hoofman.
