Fair enough Gbs,but thats rugby these days,if you tackle someone too hard you are cited 🙂
Saders 9 / 6
Puma @ 1 – howzit old mate??
Arghhh..accident..delete…. ‘post’ wrong location… sorry
30@ Oldie – Bit of a rubbish game… parry, counter-parry… that type of thing
Very tough though!
Tah’s looking stronger than the Saders.
Penalty to the Tahs, going for corner.
Morning Blue Bird!

Try spvod.com, don’t mind the Chinese, just click on the English flag and any rugby ball icon, usually a good feed that.
Are the Waraths going to score?
Tahs hot on the attack but the Saders hold them out…. just
And OldQua, download the spvod player, takes only a few seconds.
TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TAHS!
Try Tahs!
Try Tahs… Horne
Morning Loosehead…Hoping for a Saders win here, only for my Bru really…
Technology…I have just pressed a wrong button…computers….Arghhhhh
My Justin Tv feed is just fine today…
Back, just had to do something with my pool pump. All fixed now only saw the last 5min here. Well done to Tahs getting that try.
Blue Bird, wherabouts are you, UK?
Tahs 13 / 9
Great try after 25 phases,some serious ball handling there..
. . . good try by the sound of it????????
Thanks Piet, I’ll give it a go.
My feed is just obliterated into freezes.
Go the Tahs!!!!!!!
33 – Old Griquas, good and you? Back in time to see Tahs get that try.
Penalty Carter
Tahs 13 / 12
Old Griquas… bandwidth is the problem, try and go for a lower bit rate (lower resolution) picture.
Winston @ 50 – how did they do that? 25 phases and the Tahs still have the ball! What a change that is . . .
Think the Aussies are going to be very tough to beat in the Tri-Nations. Good that like good competition, makes the tourney more exciting.
GBS @ 53 – hahaha!
You mean I have a bit picture problem? Strike me pink mate, how am I going to fix that – I’m standing on the runway!!!!!!!!!!! Hope no aircraft approach
Old 14,it was some serious ball retention,was very impressed 🙂
Me thinks the Crusaders will show why they are a Champion side in the last 20.
Tahs #11 in trouble, looks like a busted knee ouch!!
Wie moet wen, gelykop die beste ?
