Gisteraand se rugby was ‘n rugbysirkus….. daai game sê nie veel van die Lions of die Chiefs verdediging nie!
Die enigste positiewe aspek vir die Lions was dat dit lyk of hulle nogal moer fiks is…. niks meer as dit nie!
Shame, hehe funny commentry
not_so_super @ 16
does that mean you get a wedgie everytime you hear his voice?
More GBS, het jy gesien hoeveel kritiek daai Leeu game uitgelok het. Jy moes op daardie dedicated Lions site gesien het die treurmare. Van hulle wil sommer n week wegbly om oor die skok te kom. Ek het nogal gese kyk wat gebeur na 4 uit 4 verlore games. Nou begin dit somaar na 2.
Wie’t die penalty geskop vir die Canes, ek het ‘n flippen oproep gekry… flok!
