Blues 19 / 12
Kicking from both sides has been shocking. No excuses. Rory kicked all his kicks in the most dreadful conditions last week at the Tank.
Both Landers and Blues better get those kicks over. Going to cost them both.
Eish Onerb…. druk net die “END” knoppie en jy’s onder…
Wat van “reply” knoppies/pyltjies…
nee ouens, nog een drie dan het die Blues ‘n bonus, hou nou op cheer vir hulle
113 – Blouste, for sure buddy. Only have Blues by 3 so will allow Landers to get a penalty….hahaha.
