Go Sharks, let’s take the Lions out of the CC race today…
Hierdie gaan n moosa game wees, Sharks beware!
S H A R K S S S S S S S S S S S S S SS S S S S S S !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOOOOOOOOO SHARKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
@ Pietman:2 Piet, I feel so too. Lions are playing great rugby and they have to win today to stay in the hunt. Going to be a tough game.
Anything can happen here… and if the Lions pull this one through, ascribe it to being more motivated to reach the semi’s.
My SuperBru backs the Sharkies though…
Weet nie wie om te ondersteun nie:
Sharks wen is goed vir Bulle om 3 of 4 de te eindig.
Wen Lions dan beteken dit Sharks sal hul A span Nuweland toe stuur, en as die Bulle wen volgende week, kan hul nog speel vir 2de plek in die laaste rondte.
Hmmm … hoop maar vir ‘n gelykop !
7@ bdb:
Hehehe, ja gelykop, 3 / 3
Game on
Tryyyyyyyyyyy Mvovo!!
Flag out… let’s see… Red infringement, try will stand
TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY MVOVO
Lovely running there by Sharks.
Yellow for Martin Bezuidenhout, punch.
Sien Webster blaas.
Sharks 5 / 0 as Lambie misses the absolute sitter, which Puma could have slotted…. hehehe
Penalty Lions, easy one
Sharks 5 / 3
Sal Jantjies loshande bo die wisselvallige Lambie kies as bok losskakel.
Penalty Lions, looks like Hargreaves or Kanko vloeked the little ref
17@ bdb:
Ja, Lambie se skoppe pale toe suig maar kwaai
Lekker stryd vandag tussen die twee kapokhaantjies op 10
Penalty adavantage to the Sharks… advantage over
Another penalty advantage, Sharks keeping it through the phases well
19 Phases, till the penalty eventually comes
Goeie aanval deur Sharks en goeie verdediging deur Leeus.
OK….only just finished work…completely missed the buls game 🙁 …omw home….hope to catch 2nd half ….good luck to your team Puma.
Lions back to 15 players
Leeus niks afgestaan toe hul haker af was nie, impressive
Lions relieving penalty
Lions win a free kick from a scrum
Also a scrappy game so far…
