    turk uhm i am sure the sharks wouldnt agree with that

    they smacked the stormers very recently and dominated most of the sharks bulls game

    specially in the forwards

    granted the bulls held their nerve to show great patience to win that one

    @ sharky – Of course there will be place for some sharkies, bru. Don’t be so sensitive. I was talking about the strong points of the two teams that stand out. Sharks and cheatahs tried hard but were very inconsistent unfortunately.

    Well done Stormers. Not a very exciting semi final. Just pleased that two saffa sides went through. Going to be a cracker next week ant Orlando. There was huge support for Bulls as I saw the game only after 56min. Go Bulls all the best.

    Good luck to both saffa teams.

    In the Boks named for the Wales game not too surprised. Excpect thought that home players would have got advantage. J. Van Niekerk ahead of Kanko who has had a awesome season seems a bit unfair. Anyhow Joe is a great a player. Pleased to see Frans Steyn there. Thought BJ instead of CJ??? Well that is how it goes. Pity that Deysel never got a call up either.

    Well my last post until next weeks final. GOOOOOOOO SOUTH AFRICA. Can only be a saffa team to win the last S14. Great. We keep that cup here. Bulls looked superb. The game against Stormers was one sided. Stormers were just far too good.

    Good luck Bulls and Stormrers in the final at Orlando where I thought it was going to be anyhow. Okay. Back to my awesome holiday. It is fantastic here.

    Cheers all.
