Looks like conditions have improved… but the field and ball will still be soapy…
30-10 to the French
if Warren Bros have a interview with john Plumtree, one would expect a frog to jump out anytime. 😆
Wonder hoe dit sal klink as hulle fluister?
Mense, hierdie rugbyseisoen raak nou te lank, regtig.
Kyk hoe moeg is baie van die spelers en spanne, hulle sukkel al die hele naweek.
My voorstel is, laat die manne uitrus met die oog op die 3N. Kanselleer die res van die S14 wedstryde, en gee die beker vir die span wat nou bo op die log lê.
So terloops, wie lê nou bo op die log ?
Franse gaan die 6N loshande wen, lyk of dit dalk tussen hulle en die souties gaan wees.
Bissie controlling his temper very nicely
Will never agree to this ref system. Here we have a kiwi ref and we playing against a kiwi side. Just will never agree to it.
Hope when we play Saders in NZ we have Kaplan.

105: Puma, ek weet al daardie stories oor FS is nie waar nie (of ek hoop so), maar ek het lekker gelag vir die koerantartikel daaroor daardie tyd, toe hul per ongeluk daaroor geskryf het soos volg:
“Frans Steyn, wat bekend is vir sy gevaarlike aanvalle van agter af …”
hehehehehe
