68 Better kick by O’Connor to the corner but not to touch and Ashley-Cooper has to take the ball to touch so the Force get a line-out 10m from the Brumbies’ line.
70 It’s pushed to the right! One of the easier kicks of the night that one.
Try Brumbies
149- jammer ou maat kom ons hoop op iets beter die jaar….
Nou wat het geword van daai kamstige ‘running rugby’ wat daai ozzies so oor aan gegaan het, blerrie boring game hierdie……skop net heen en weer.
Just back and Brumbies get a try.
24-15 Brumbies
72 It’s given the Brumbies a boot up the behind, here’s a good attack from Lealiifano again, out to Mortlock, a break here! Out to Edmonds, he slips O’Connor and is home! TRY BRUMBIES! 22-15 – if Mortlock lands the conversion that should be it!
hel my pick is brumbies met 10 glad nie te sleg nie…solank die game net nou tot n einde kom….
155 – Fires, Yip say so myself. Had to go out but saw the last 20min, was thinking Bulls are going to clean em Brumbies up at Loftus!! hahaha. Then they get a try.
Now hope it stays that way for my bru picks.
anyone know what the best place is to get a 512k line? THis 384 is not working on streaming.
i need another 11 points to be happy go Brumbies
159 – Scrumsaam, SCORE must stay just as it is. I have Brumbies by 9.
I need the Force to score an unconverted try, then for the Brumbies to land a penalty…..
Puma- then you got it spot on, i am happy with a window of 1
76 Toomua calmly playing the corners now, the Brumbies have weathered the Force comeback, but can they pinch a fourth try?
end of game
24 – 15

169 – 😆

Nou gat dit seker weer ‘n jaar vat om by superbru in te kom….
168 – GBS, I get in and then it bombs me out. Saying error!!!! Now going to try again. Think nothing to do with the comp site. MY pc brother is giving me uphill again.
When I submit a post. It bombs me out and says error as well. Only after trying a few times to post it EVENTUALLY goes through.
Have someone coming at 3pm to check it my pc out again. Now hope this post goes through pronto 😉
1 hour and 12 minutes to go for registrations today on the Rugby-Talk SportsPool Game…. then I’m away till 6:30PM… and then’s the game between the Cheetahs and the Bulls… the 1st game which officially counts for our competition scores….
So get to it…. make it snappy!
Daai nuwe site van die Lions, ek lag maar net.
Elke keer wat ek daar gaan loer is daar about 700 spelers wat hulle reken die span kon haal. Flok as DM hulle eers so paar games laat saamspeel gaan die res van SA skyt.
OK ek oordryf oor die 700, dis meer 70. Hoe de hel het hulle se baie talent. Hulle spog nou ook omdat hulle al die Pumas en Luiperds tot hul beskiking het.
Kyk ek sal my woorde nou nie meer sluk vandat ED my daar geban het nie. Ek se julle waar ek hulle nog simpatiek behandel het sal ek nou oop ketels gooi. Ons word genoem dat ons hulle negatief aansien, maar die hele Flippen land gee hul geen kans nie.
Let’s hope my luck continues. Thanks Super – good job – popped on to update all the time.
172 – Irish, Yip……..hehehe. It is a loooooonnnnngggggggg season only the start. So far so good. 😉
I’ve put my picks on GBS one! Have you?
176 – Super, You doing a great job.
