ek is nog net so groot blou ou soos altyd , maar ek se n ding as ek wil en ons moet net ons oe oopmaak, die manne het nie oornag sleg geword nie. Net die attitude is nie reg
fender, no, rest him. even a blind man can see he lost his edge
@ 118 Ek was baie omgekrap na die verloor. Dinge het net nie uitgewerk nie. Op die einde van die dag bly die coach verantwoordelik vir die gameplan. Hoekom het hulle nie aangepas en die game stadig gemaak nie? Bulle het rerig hard probeer om die Reds op die voorvoet te sit.
Well done Puma and Tree on the bonus point!
Sharks 29 / 21
Stop giving away stupid penalties sharks.
@121
Ditto.
Bulls’ senior players let the team down today, Matfield, Spies, Steyn and Spies were nowhere….
Gimme a break what about thar very late tackle on our player in the first half and the knock foward that led to a try.
124 – Fender…….hehehehehe. Our first for 4 tries. Never thought it would take us almost the whole S14 season to get it.
Tryyyyyy Oupaaaaa??
TMO
Rugbybal
We will open a thread were we can analyze the Bulls game, lets enjoy this battle first
Oupa was out, touch and goal….. that was dumb Stefan, wanting or insisting on going on your own
LOL got so excited that that i disconnected myself from the site. We doing well Yipppeeeeeeee
Damn pity there almost a try for Stefan but not. Good tackle by Lions there
121: stem saam ou Super, ‘n goeie bb verloorder moet maar vir die wp of sharks gaan ondersteun ! 😉
Maar ek is nog baie optimisties. Laasjaar was ons na 9 wedstryde op 29 punte, nou is ons op 34. Dus ‘n hele 5 punte beter.
En, Bakkies en Akona kom terug, net wat ons nodig het om nuwe vuur in die span te blaas vir die ‘home stretch’.
My grootste bekommernis is MS, weet nie wat het daar gebeur nie, hoop hy kom gou reg.
BULLE !
131: goeie idee, sal dan ‘n paar dinge daar noem.
BEASTTTTTTTTTTT
‘n Klient bel my nou…. in die rugby…. en wil advies hê… ek dog toe dis ernstig en sê sy kan maar vra… toe wil die stupid koei net ‘n DVD copy… ek dog my bloed kook… amper was ek lelik met haar.
Puma, good things come to those that wait, hehe!!
Sharks 32 / 21
John Smit, what a leader!
Just watch how he conducts from now on….in the heat of the moment is aloways sooooo cool-headed.
What a boykie, our Springbok captain!
@ 138 GBS Gee net die goue reel vir haar : RTFS
Nice Ruan. Kicking at altitude and sea level takes adjusting. So far Ruan doing well. Missed some but kicking at poles not too bad.
141 – Piet, Agree.
139 – Fender 😆
141: hoor hoor !
Franco vd Merwe speel goed.
Time to bring Kokkerot on and move Ruan to flyhalf
GBS 138 that was me 🙄
148@ BoomCow – No, that person spoke Afrikaans, and did not call me noonoo!
