Fark, here in SA they’re showing Golf at Sin City, the Dubai 7’s (which the Bokke have now fallen out of) and all sorts of kakkas on TV, but not this TEST!!
Links gentlemen, links… so that we can stream the game live…. come on, hop to it!
Mmm very strong Baabaas team I see…against a slight second string AB team.
Groot, I will do the updates if you want, seeing it live on this side. Comment as much as I can too.
2@ Swanie – GREAT !!
I will make you the Author for this thread immediately!
Keep it nicely up to date for us, old Koos!
Yes, feel a bit angry that we are not getting this game. So many sports channels Dstv could have made space for the BaaBaa game especially with so many saffas in this side.
What is happening with that sports channel? Used to get all the rugby. Shame on Dstv for not showing this game, this is a rugby country and the last big game of the season and we are not going to get it.
With all the Saffas in the side and a saffa Captain you would think we would get it. Just not good enough from Dstv.
Carol, I mentioned this on the other BaaBaas thread. Take your camera with and take some pics for us.
Swanie, you are now officially in charge of this thread…
Swanie thanks mate. We will just have to get the updates from you.
Really would have like to have seen it live though.
