Ok,laat ek gou n bier oopmaak….en die beeskerrie en stampmielies gaan regkry, groot rugbynaweek hierdie, lekka hier op RT!
Tjorts
Gooooooo Canes…. beat the Tahs by 7 or less and allow the Tahs 4 tries in the process….
Flok, die Stormpoppie ondersteuners gaan my wil moer as dit gebeur…. hehehe
a beautiful, cool Sydney evening, no driving rain and mist here. Best of luck to both sides.
gbs @ 3
hoekom sal ons dit wil doen?
as ons nie kan kwalifiseer in die situasie waar ons op die oomblik in is nie
verdien ons regtig nie ñ plek in die semis nie!!
If the Canes win without a bonus point, they could end 4th…. then the Stormers could play the Crusaders again at Newlands….. mmmmmm
Goooooo Canessssssssssssss
5@ Asbak – Imagine die pressure dan op die Stormers….
Hier is nog so baie dinge wat kan gebeur, solank die stormers net wen dis al wen net….
I have a feling if the Tahs win this one that they will go all the way.
They were a bit lucky in the beginning of the comp, but this team is now definately on the up…
Go Tahs. Don’t want 2 kiwi teams in semis and think Stormers can take tahs comfortably……
Okay go the Tahs. I have them on my bru.
Could go either way but let us hope for a great game.
Still one of the best games of this tourney was the Bulls/Tahs game at Loftus. Magnificent game from both teams. Then Stormers/Blues that was a cracker too.
11 – Turk, Not so sure. Remember that magnificent game the Tahs played against the Bulls at Loftus? Think that was the game of the tourney. If they produce something like that they are tough. Then Canes are playing well too. Very up and down with them so you never know. Though if they come back here they will want revenge. Lost all their games agains the saffa sides in SA. So did the Saders.
My Bru says Tahs by 5
Hmm, interessante naweek die…
Hoop net die Bulle eindig 1ste op die log na die naweek :lol1
4 – Old G. Sounds great there in Sydney.
Hectically ugly Rugby Jerseys by the Waratahs…. goeie flok!
Interessante verwikkelinge deur die reeks:
1. Bulle en Stormers was heeltyd onder die boonste spanne, en het goeie rugby gespeel, met ‘n hobbel so nou en dan
2. Saders het nooit op alle silinders gevuur nie, 3 in ‘n ry verloor, maar in laaste 2 topvorm begin bereik
3. Tahs is die gelukkigste slegste span deur die reeks, maar lyk ook al beter aan die einde.
4. Canes was op ‘n stadium 10de, en nou kan hul al die pad gaan, amper soos Saders ‘n klompie jare gelede wat ook amper heeltemal uit was, en weer begin lewe het, en toe die bekere gewen het.
As al die spanne speel soos hul werklik kan, hul volle potensiaal, behoort ons ‘n Bulle vs Stormers finaal te sien.
Het die Bulle al ge-‘peak’, ek glo nie, hopelik volgende saterdad.
14 – gbs, Think mine is Tahs 3 or 4. Something like that.
Game on!
Puma, ciao mate. Get you, it’s not possible to be sure of course 🙂 can go any way at this level. Feel tahs have been lucky this season. Hope luck won’t last against saffa teams, but you never know…
Watse “Mickey mouse” truie het die Tahs aan ?
Fark, someone played noughts and crosses on the Tahs jerseys…. all of them…
bidibi
Ja die Bulle het gepeak…in rondte nommer 5
As ek terug dink raak ek sommer van voor af kwaai met die Stormers, hel ons kon laas week al seker gemaak het van sake… dink ek moet n paar kalmeer pille sluk..of n tee met ys….
Canes going for posts…. Weepu
Canes 3 / 0
#Blouste
Die Tahs moan oor hulle geld gaan verloor as hulle nie ‘n tuis semi het nie. Dis omdat hulle te veel geld uitgee op stront soos daai truie…
3 points to the Canes.
