    I have Canes but not by this much.

  • 92

    Reds die groot verrassing van die reeks, Brumbies die ‘under achievers’ ?

  • 93

    My Bru is very kak on this game…. but I’m glad that the Canes will win… by more than 7 and no bonus points…. ideal!

  • 94

    Eerstens, geluk Stormers. Dit was groot, en ek smaak hierdie wenne in NZ sommer baie.

    “n hurricane wen sonder ‘n bonus is goed vir ons spanne, so blaas die uindfluit ref!

    86: al ding wat hul by Luke geleer het, is om bak arms te loop as hul begin goed speel ! 😉

    Nee, jy verstaan verkeerd. Ek se nie games waar hy veroorsaak het dat julle wen nie, ek se games waar hy so ‘n ALL-ROUND performance ingesit het.

    Dis wat ek gese het oor Bekker en Bakkies, Bekker is nie meer net ‘n ligte ou wat die lynstane en goete doen nie, sy verdediging en presence begin van hom ‘n enforcer OOK maak, hoekom ek se hy kan 5 & 4 speel.

    92 – bdb, Reds are going to be the top team for Oz next year have no doubts and they may just land up in a semi this year, who knows. Have to see how they play against the Bulls tomorrow and the Stormers next week. Bulls need to have Cooper covered tomorrow and Genia. They do that it will be easier. Not that easy but easier. Cooper is superb.

    Come on everyone, Old Griquas was posting with us. Need to speak in English if our overseas visitors are posting.

    Hi Puma, saw you greeted me on the other thread. Computer was logged on but i was to busy with other things. Just refreshed every now and then for the scores, and did not read the comments.

    Final Score…. Canes win by 23 / 13

    Heeeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • 101

    Canes win and Brumbies don’t collect a bonus. Probably good for the Saffa sides.

    Sorry Old Griquas, just thinking of the saffa sides here. Then Brumbies is Walla’s team and your team is Tahs.

    Sorry Walla, Canes just too good tonight.

  • 102

    Walla has just kicked his dog….

  • 103

    Congrats to the Canes, Brums just not up to it. I’m outta here, catch you all tomorrow for the Reds/Bulls.

  • 104

    99 – Snoek, Yip howzit? Hope our Sharks can win tomorrow. See they were building it up as one of the big games to watch on Boots last night. Had a laugh really as we are sitting 10th and Lions at the bottom. Think they want bums on seats at Ellis Park.

    The big games was Stormers/Chiefs and Bulls/Reds.

    Carol still posts here Snoek. Now called Blue Bird..hehe. I like her new nick.

    Good result.

  • 106

    Dit was nou ‘n goeie uitslag!!
    Nou moet die Cheetahs net die Saders ook trap more!!

  • 107

    103 – Old Griquas, Cheers mate, enjoy the rest of your evening. It sounds great where you are.

    Reds/Bulls game going to be a cracker.

  • 108

    105 – Snoek, Yip for the Saffa teams that was a good result.

  • 109

    96@ Saint – Bekker is flokken goed, maar hy speel NIE ‘n No 4 slot game nie, hy speel te los daarvoor…. goed, maar te veel wyd in die agterlyn vir ‘n No 4 slot…. dis my opinie.

    No 4 slotte werk hard in die vaste fassette en hang nie daar wyd rond nie.

    Hy is ‘n No 5 slot.

    Dit verander egter niks dat Bekker vandag great was nie…..

    Victor Matfield is OOK NIE ‘n No 4 slot nie, sal nooit wees nie…. same difference.

  • 110

    Thanks for the info Puma

    I will be in Joburg tommorow to watch “grease” with the wife. Would rather have watched the game live, but hey, sometimes we need to please our wifes as well. 😆

  • 111

    98: what het you gesê old maat ? 😉

    96: Saint, net soos Habana nie hierdie seisoen op sy beste al was nie, net so was Vic nog nie op sy beste nie. Wie weet, dalk hou hul dit vir wanneer dit regtig saak maak, ek weet nie. Maar, laat ons nie vergeet watter groot wedstryd wenners hierdie twee spelers in eie reg was en nog is nie. Bekker is baie goed, en op huidige vorm die beste slot in die S14, maar laat ons eers sien hoe vaar hy teen die beste slotte die afgelope dekade: op Nuweland die 15de Mei … as mnr.Botha terug is. 😉

    Ek weet nie hoekom ‘n mens een speler hoef af te kraak (bv. Vic; Habana)om ander goed te praat nie (bv.Bekker/Mapoe). Albei spelers is skitterende spelers, ons is bevoorreg om soveel diepte te hê.

    110 – Snoek, Enjoy it. We were going to go but never booked so probably wont get a booking for that show. My other half also wanted to go to see that show.

    I would never have gone while the Sharks were playing though….. 😀

    Sneak out every now and then. The game will be on the big screen in the square just outside of the theatre..hehehehe.

  • 113

    At least Matfield will know now that there is a real contender to his crown. Should be interesting tussle going forward. In my opinion Bekker is tops at the moment, but the incumbent is still very good, and should stay put for now. But Bekker is now a must on the bench.

  • 114

    106; geluk met jou span ou dromer (Ctahs vir Saders trap? hehehe)

    Het niemand afgekraak nie, no way, no how, net gewys op hulle verskille, al wie ek afkraak is Meisiekind en Frans Steyn

  • 116

    112 @ Puma

    Don’t worry, i will see the game, show only starts @ 8pm.

    Will watch it at that square you talking about.

  • 117

    113 – Snoek, I would never have thought last year I would say that Bekker is better than Matfield, right now Bekker is playing sublime rugby and edges Matfield. Though Matfield still playing superb but Bekker is just awesome at the moment. Also BURGER!!! He is playing the best rugby I have ever seen him play in his life, even better than before he hurt his neck. Now hope he plays like that for the Boks too. Awesome both of those players.

  • 118

    116 – Snoek, It is great in the square there. That is where they normally have Bok Town. Probably the best Bok Town in the country when the Boks are playing. Plenty restaurants in the square and you can see the screen from all any point where you sit. Probably the Italian restaurant just outside of the square has the best view. Very nice vibe there.

  • 119

    118 – Snoek – Meant the Italian restaurant just outside of the theatre has the best view.

    Saint – Gaan jy ons Sharks supporters baie “grieve” gee volgende week as verloor teen die Leeus?

    Jy weet mos ons ouens like dit om teen die bottom dwellers te gaan staan en verloor.
