    Puma and Winston, I think that the Sharks will win next weekend if Smit is at 2 and Deysel starts, and JPP is dropped.

    Bulle kan maar gerus die laaste twee Stormers games mooi bekyk, en leer. Baie goeie spel Stormers. Really impresive. You are my team of the weekend.

    Well done Scotland. A draw against England or Scotland is huge. I know their supporters will be celebrating.

    Go my Scottish Friends. I know a draw against the old enemy for you is good. So celebrate and enjoy.

    TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Mossie

    Puma
    Ditto.

    Plus Highlanders will have to fly home,will feel shattered after todays game against the mighty Bulls..

    Drop goal- charged down! It’s well into the red time by a couple of minutes. England have been patiently working the ball up the middle of the pitch through the forwards, it’s obvious what they want to do and eventually they set up a kick for Flood. He looks to have connected OK but the Scottish defence is ready and it is charged down. Morrison collects the rebound and, deciding that enough is enough, puts it out into touch. We have out first Calcutta Cup draw since 1989.

    121 – Loosehead. Selections have cost us a lot. I have said for two weeks now. I really hate to see Deysel sitting on the bench. Wasted there. He is a huge talent and such a great player. Needs to start.

    Play Mvovo. Play Lambie too. Start John at hooker. JdP on the bench or never to play again. Rather just have Carstens there. Jannie costs us far too many penalties. Or knocks it on.

    Well we were close but close is not good enough.

    Anyhow good luck to our top two saffa teams.

    Go BULLLLLSSSSSSSSSSSSSS AND STORMERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

    Agreed Loosehead,except Jp.dont know who can replace him who is on tour,and dont say Murray,because he refuses to pass the ball and is too slow. I see Cart horse Odwa went off today so maybe Mvovu will finally get a chance. Deysel has to start,is wasted on the bench.

  • 131

    Ok so 37-13

    Bloody well done Stormers.

  • 132

    126 – Just hope Sharks beat both those teams. Well Landers not great deal for our two top sides but it will help the Bulls and Stormers if we beat Canes.

    Canes not that bad they will come back for sure.

  • 133

    37-13,great game. Well done Stormers 🙂

  • 134

    Odwa may not be the fastest wing around, but he has an excellent work rate, as opposed to JPP who is just fat and lazy.

  • 135

    superBul
    Dis waar.
    Die Stormers is n heel ander span vanjaar, met Schalk Burger as kaptein, Mossie en van die ander stoere ouens daar, en daai JoeP is magic!

  • 136

    Does anyone know whats happening in the F1?

  • 137

    Agreed,Canes are a good side and will be back. Jp will come right,he is a class player,just needs a kick up the back side,but Odwa is too slow,we cant score tries with our wings and no play maker at 12.

  • 138

    Since AC and Schalk took over from Rassie and Luke it is a much better team.

  • 139

    Have a look at the competition Logs , what a beautiful sight

  • 140

    Not sure,do you know when the race is tomorrow?

  • 141

    136: my F1 werk nog op my sleutelbord, wat gebeur met joune ?

  • 142

    Cheers folks I am out for the night.

  • 143

    Lets just not start a Luke debate please,I wont be able to take it 🙂

  • 144

    141 😆

  • 145

    Take care Loosehead.

  • 146

    Loosie@138
    You said it! 🙂
    And on that note I’m out.!

  • 147

    Think Stormers are looking a very happy team this year. Like a band of brothers. That alone gets confidence up and well done to them. May they and the Bulls just keep flying our flag high.

    ONCE AGAIN WELL DONE TO SCOTLAND. Damn feel good for my Scots mates. A draw for them is huge. They hardly ever win anything. So pleased for them.

    Now out of here. Cheers all.

    Two saffa teams top the log of the S14. I am very, very proud.

  • 148

    My heart will break if I see where my beloved Sharks are 🙂

  • 149

    Before I go. Loosehead I hope you get your milk…….hehehehehehe 😆

    Now out of here.

    Bulle, 20
    Stormers, 19
    Saders, 18
    Chiefs, 16
    Brumbies, 16

    Lyk goed, en Bulle het nog een wedstryd ekstra.

    My voorspelling na 5 rondtes, vir die semi-plekke:

    Bulle
    Stormers
    Brumbies
    Saders

    Maar onthou: Bulle, Stormers en Brumbies moet nog gaan toer.
