@ superBul:29 – Stefan sure is a Natal citizen his whole family is now. This place is addictive. Once you here you don’t leave 😛
We were lucky that we did not get a bigger hiding. Then again that is contradicting myself. Bulls defense was good enough to prevent 3 further tries. Almost all the Burden attempts was stopped.
Okay that is me out. Cheers all enjoy the rest of your evening.
Golf was great to watch. Also the Sharks but the Boks really hope we can get better for next week against the Aussies.
Catch up tomorrow.
@ Puma:
So by the way did you feel the same about Frans Steyn?
@ Puma:
Sorry that you go now i wanted to ask you some questions regarding the Test, i will test my opinions with a poll.
@ superBul:32 – Super, I always enjoy the Bulls/Sharks games. The a very good turn out at the stadium too. Always is when the Bulls are in town.
Yip, could have been a bigger win but the Bulls defence was good in the end there.
Okay out of here now. Back tomorrow. Cheers Super and Sharky.
@ superBul:34 – Quick answer. YES Frans Steyn was a Natal boy for sure Super. He came here very young. He was one of us for sure. If he ever comes back really hope he comes back to the Sharks. Doubt it though but hope he does.
Now really out of here. Thanks for the 65 AB tour thread. Will read it tomorrow. Read a book in the Berg when I was there last week about that tour. Was in their libary there. Interesting was written by a kiwi.
Cheers Super catch up tomorrow.

Well done to your Saffa man of the moment….!!
@ Blue Bird:

@ superBul:

See you.
Speaking from his home near London, Ernie Els was effusive in his praise for fellow South African Louis Oosthuizen, who was a member of the Ernie Els and Fancourt Foundation for three years from 2000.
Oosthuizen, 27, won his first Major title on Sunday, securing victory at the 139th British Open at St Andrews.
“I would like to congratulate Louis Oosthuizen on his fantastic victory today – it could not have happened to a better person,” Els said.
“Speaking for our foundation, we are very proud of him. It is a dream come true for us, as this is exactly what we want to see in providing opportunities for talented young golfers in South Africa.
“In starting our foundation, I wanted to give talented young golfers the same opportunities that I was given.
“This has exceeded my greatest expectations. Where, in your whole life, could you hope for a better story?
“I played a practice round with him last Sunday and, typically for him, he didn’t give himself a chance. He is a quiet and unassuming guy, but he has shown everyone what a great champion he is.”
Els, who has won three Major titles including the British Open in 2002, said he was “honoured” to have been acknowledged in Oosthuizen’s speech after he lifted the Claret Jug.
“I was very honoured that Louis thanked me in his victory speech – he didn’t have to do that,” Els said.
“The way he has made use of his opportunities will always be thanks enough. I don’t think I have ever been so proud.”
