Sharks just hang in there. Only 9 min left.
Oh fark, they must’nt send on Adi Kak Handjies Jacobs….
150 – Loosehead of course it is boring, cant play much else in that weather. As long as we win even by one point I will be happy. 😉
sighhhhhhhhhhhhh
Bissie cops a yellow… surprized? Noooooooooo!
Ek is bly Bissie het nie na Bulle gekom nie. GB speel met baie meer dissipline.
Damn daft Bissie does it again, gives away a penalty and gets sent off. Bugger we don’t need this at this stage of the game.
Loosehead, You want Bissie at Freestate?
Burden has to come on, to hook… so Daniel goes off
Well one good thing has come out of this game, Captain John Smit is fit enough to play a whole game even in these conditions, there have been those saying he is fat and unfit.
Verdedig !
160 – Treehugs, Captain John Smit is just fine and who ever said on Voldy that he was fat, needs glasses. He looks fit and no boep or fat just all muscle.
Oh fark, Adi Kak Handjies IS on
Try Chiefs, if the kick is over, they lead
Thats it Chiefs score at the death. We have lost this one and think we are a goner for the season. Going to be one big up hill for my team.
Bulls looks by far the best team from the Saffa teams. They look like champs which they are.
Sharks needs to get rid of Bissie he cost us and will always do.
Chiefs 16 / 15
Penalty, Kokkerot can throw over…. easy peasy
Luckybreak, hope he doesnt miss this,lol
Sharks 18 / 16

GET RID OF THE DUP BROTHERS. They are just useless both of them. They lost it for us. Send em back to Freestate.
Loosehead you want the Dup brothers? Have em mate.
Wat is dit met die Sharks en 1 punte ? 😉
Puma , sorry my mate , i thought it would be a tough battle. So close , so bloody close.
Puma
Ken jy daai storie van die kuikens en die tellery en so aan?
Nee wat, my geld is beslis op die Lions om volgende naweek die Chiefs te wen. Sharks gaan sukkel om onder die top 8spanne in die S14 te eindig. Hulle disipline is pateties!!
