GBS – G’day mate. Lovin this match; 3 words for the sharkies: tackle, tackle, tackle!!!!!!!!!!
Hi fender
Must Terblanche kick EVERY ball?
Oupa had just better stop with the kicking, you loose possestion you idiot.
Where are Puma and Sharky, too nervous to show up or what?
This really upsets me kicking the ball when the tryline is in sight when you can pass to another player.
And what do you know, Bismark is penalised.
The Mental Patient gives away yet another penalty for ill dicipline….
Hi piet am also suprised that Puma is not here, he was online earlier
oh my shatter’d nerves
Nice kick JP
Try Ben Alexander
More SuperBul
I like Smit’s comment: was that Paul Marks who gave that penalty?
Try Brumbies.
wish i culd have seen that ball being dotted down, couldnt see a thing.
Brumbis 13 / 6
It’s the concentrated pressure that the sharks don’t contend with. I still feel defence isn’t up to scratch. Brumbies will gradually pull away if the sharks don’t get it together. Attack is fine – keep Brumbies outta the red zone!
Botes is just sooooooooooooo much better than Daniel.
Loosehead, really, lol, my nerves were to shot to hear that i think.
More Karen,
ek sien sekere mense kan spot maar kan nie vat nie, ek vind dit natuurlik moerse amusant, maar haat die feit dat hulle kan gee maar dan ander kritiseer wat dieselfde doen.
Lol SuperBul – ek spot maar met myself – ek is ‘n Stormer supporter 🙂 Ek is blonde so ek moet dit seker maar vat lmga
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Pienaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar try!
TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY PIENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
TrYYYYY ShaaaaaaaaarkkkSSSSSSSSSSs
Of no interest to sharkies supporters, but the service from halfback, Valentine, is excellent – it’s putting sharks inside channels defence under the microscope, and it doesn’t look adequate, at this time.
Pienaar scores – 13/11, fabulous
He learn’t to play like that in the VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
