If the Aussies can drink now, so can I 😆
55. Blouste, I still think The Bulls will make the Sharks quake in their boots….
I am hoping the overawed factor will give the Bulls a good winning margin!
Turnover by Genia on their try line, try saving !!!
59 – SuperBul, at last, thought you had been kidnapped by irate baboons!! 😉
BB
I so hope you are right !!!
Brumbies on attack now on Reds 22 after the hooter…
Can’t understand why I do not figure on the most active bloggers list yet!!
Must try harder…..
But I must get on….if I want to watch the Bulls later…so see ya in a bit guys!
Penalty Brumbies, kickable
Blouste @ 56 Easy mate. Are we good at wine? More advanced than SA in fact, and as for the whine? Opinion rather fact, but that’s your entitlement.
Giteau misses it
14 – 6 halftime…
Brumbies 14 / 6

The baboons sent me home they say i am useless
Oldie, I’m just kidding boet…
When you say more advanced, are you refferring to tecnology ?
Boggom…
Hello Blue Bird, You have Bulls by 15? Hope not 😀 I have Sharks by 2. Now with Bissy out maybe Bulls by 8
Blouste @ 73 no, not technology, more the age of grape and soil types, but I do have a great love of the SA wines. I believe in most instances the Aus grapes lead in the second world varieties, at the moment, but taste is, as always, a subjective thing. Kiwis are doing well lately with their Marlborough wines. Anyway, if it’s wet, I like it!!!!!!!!
Puma make it Bulls by 9 😆
56 – Blouste the Aussies make superb wine just like us. I have been there and tell you the wine is just as good as South Africa. Only more expensive.
Old Griquas…
I see, well as long as it was in a barrel for some time 😉
Puma
If it’s more expensive then surely ours taste better !!! 😆
I see on Suparugby that John Mitchell will coach the Lions for the Curry Cup.
Puma 78 Penfolds Grange Hermitage, the Aus top shelf, today released it’s new vintage, the 2004, with a retail price of $540 a bottle! Just a little expensive????????/
76 – Old Griquas, I am the same like my wine but has to be a good wine though.
77 – Blouste, Maybe they will play for Bissy today and put everything into it. Maybe Sharks by 8 😆 Wishful thinking with our centres and FH but hoping we have a really good game to watch later.
Giteau was average so far this season but seem to have upped his game against Cooper tonight…
let me say something about superbru, i might be bad in that game but at least i win some, unlike a certain S14 team.
Watch my lead in ICC check quick it might disappear like mist by tonight
82 – Old Griquas, WOW!!!! That is expensive. I can get top of the range, well what I like for about R120 I call that cheap. You get cheaper that is quite good but prefer this one.
Going to Mauritius in 3 weeks time. They sell South African wine there. A bottle of red wine that costs R60 here will cost R600 there. Very expensive to buy your wine there. But on holiday I don’t care will just have to pay for it. 😀
Reds on attack now on Brumbies 22
Line out Brumbies in their 22…
Sorry that I’m not very vocal here… doing some bank transfers whilst watching….
superBul
At this stage I don’t want to talk about superbru please 🙁
