59@ Manly – Jacques Coetzee plays for the Pumas (Witbank [Mordor]), so he’s a steenkoolbyter. Same with the Lions Hooker, Hannes Franklin, he is also from the Pumas and a very good player.
Thanks GBS, he’s tough.
Dis you see Carter is on the bench for the Crusaders vs Lions?
Hi Super, yes it seems the Saders are resting a few and just ib case the Lions play well, they have their heavies on the bench.
Did you see the Canes changed 5 players, the fullback is forced, but the others not.
super…
It is their “bye” weekend…
The guy might aswell get a rest… 😆
The bulls are going to sukkel this week because steenkamp is playing with a injury.
66@ Wezwp – No, he’s not injured… I personally asked Frans Ludeke after the game on Saturday…. Gurthro het net ‘n senuweebondel in sy hammie gehad en is vervang om te voorkom dat hy DALK ‘n hammie kan trek.
News is that Saracens has released Wikus van Heerden with immediate affect to assist the Lions in the Super 14
