53@ Blue Bird:
No time to analise and make proper picks… so I just guess and make quick picks…
@ Puma:
At last….Puma, I have not spoken to you for ages!! You are a very busy chap these days!!
Whats new?
Weet iemand hoe ver die Luiperds voor is teen die WP ?
@ bdb – 58:
Ja, as hulle tee n ons in die semi moet speel huil ek my dood.
63@ bdb:
Hulle speel eers 17:00
@ Pietman:51 – Piet, Elton is the real deal. A gem of a player.
He and Lambie. Going to be super stars. I would never leave one of them out. Play Lambie at inside centre/FB and Elton at FH. J. De Jongh at outside centre. Mvovo/Basson at 11. Jeepers we have talent coming through for world cup 2015. Now just need us a world class coach.
Looks like a try, jip, it is.
Try Kwas??
Assistant says give it…
Botha
@ Snoek:
My previous ‘Percy Comments’….How I miss Percy these days….the occasional sight of him running onto the field with the drinks botles or with Morne’s kicking stand.
All good here thanks!
@ Blue Bird:62 – Hello BB,
I have been really busy this week maybe weeks…hahaha. Probably will be for the next few weeks. Have not blogged much this week.
How you doing?
Kwas 12 / 9

@ grootblousmile:
61. Are you insinuating I am doing some sort of analysis and research before I do my picks and do not think I am reliant on wild guess work!!
(Hey, wadda ya know, you can fool some of the people some of the time) !! 😆
Lions backline should run straighter,
Try Strauss for Lions
Hello all, go Kwas!
Tryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Lions. Baardman.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS TRY LIONS. Strauss goes over.
Now waiting for Elton to convert.
@ Puma:
I did my last road race of the season and beat my P.B, so quite chuffed with that!
My knees are still holding up too!!
@ Puma:
Right on Puma, right on….but trust Muir to fck them up in his backline tacticts and PdeV to play them out of position, and so on…..
Lions 16 / 12
@ Blue Bird:79 – Well done BB. So is that your last race for the Year now? Good you done your PB too. Just keep watching the knees. They hurt just stop running and rather swim or ride your bike. Otherwise enjoy it.
How far was your race?
@ Snoek:
Ja, hy ook.
Penalty Kwas, right in front.
Lions 16 / 15
@ Puma:82 – Meant – What distance was the race?
@ Bullscot:
Hi Bullscot, are you a Saffa Bulls Fan in Scotland or a Scottish Bulls fan, I have been wondering?
We’ve got a tight game here boys and gals…. but maybe the Lions will score quite a bit in the 2nd half, they seem to be a fit team.
@ Snoek:72 – Snoek, Of course Hougaard, but he is already playing for the Boks. Just mentioned some that have not yet. We have talent for sure.
Minnie’s hands lets him down weekend after weekend.
@ Puma:
They are 4 milers…but I am doing some 10k’s next month, but they will be slower, the fast 4 milers are a bit of a killer!
My ‘Trainer’ thinks I am more distance than speed!! Hehheeheh 🙂
