    Die ou wat die meeste dikbek was omdat die Bulle gister gewen het, was natuurlik Stransky. Supersport hou natuurlik niks van hom nie, daarom word hy gestraf om elke keer die Bulle se wedstryde uit te saai. Kon duidelik hoor hoe opgewonde hy raak oor die moontlikheid dat die Saders gaan wen, seker omdat hy graag wil hê die Stormers moet bo die Bulle op die log eindig.

    Bring dan liewers vir Joost terug !

    Best wishes to the Chiefs. They haven’t had such a good season, but there’s always next year. I know the fans on the Waikato will be shattered at their results. The Tainui people are a proud bunch and I send them Arohanui (much love). Kia Ora.

    @147 Not my comp, i watch online and some of the sites have a delay at times – not always and not of constant rate

    What am I saying?? Warrafark???…. hehehehe

    149 – Sharky, you should have checked that one. It was a close game though. I have had Sharks to win every week except against the Tahs and now Stormers. So have been going with my heart.

    Stormers let me down against the Brumbies and Force, Had Bulls against the Blues and Reds. Also had Saders for a few when they lost. Yesterday really wanted to put the Canes but changed it on the last min and put Reds. Canes thrashed the Reds. So I must be sitting well down the bottom now. I am rubbish at this though. Next year will go with my head and not the heart.

    now now bigbluegrin, play nicely and don’t say what you’re thinking 🙂

    150 – Puma, agreed. Next week will be tough, but at Our House (Sydney Football Stadium) they should be okay. Canes are a good side. I like the idea of challenging the Tahs to come to the match ready to win.

    152 – Old Griquas, Chiefs too had some injuries this year. After they left South Africa. They could come back next year.

    153 – So do you get the game a few min late watching it online? Was watching the cricket the otherday on sabc and turned over to dstv and noticed sabc was about 10min behind the game.

    154 – GBS are you letting your guard down on your bogey team??????

  • 161

    @157 oldg Think your tahs will do the business at home next week. They have had the luck of the bounce this season and are sure for the semis

  • 162

    bdb, look if you prefer to believe that the whole world wants to see the Bulls lose, then knock yourself out, mate.

  • 163

    157 – Old Griquas, Think it will be tough for Canes to beat the Tahs in Sydney but Canes almost beat the Bulls at Loftus. Bulls won by one point. So you never know, just think Tahs to win next week. They know they have to win to get into the semi. Should be a cracker.

    161 – Young Fella – from the Old Fella – indeed, it’s No Excuses Time. If they are good enough, they’ll come up with the necessary result. If they aren’t good enough, they catch the bus home.

    Avanti Avanti!!!!!!!

    162: nee, dit is darem nie die hele wêreld nie, net die Stormers/WP wat dit graag wil sien. 😉

    164 – Old G, Think if Brumbies win here today they too could make the semi. If Canes lose to the Tahs next week they are out. If Brumbie win this one and can beat the Saders, Saders are out. Will be two saffa and two Aussie sides making the semi. Now that would be something I would never have ever thought, not to see a kiwi side make it. Though still to early to tell. Every game it changes.
