Blues scrum hammering the Chiefs.
Another collapsed scrum.Penalty to the Blues.
Blues take the scrum, and win another penalty.
Loskoppie…. in stead of “3” at the top, put “1 Penalty Luke McAlister” or whatever the case is…
I’m logging out… on Notebook Power now…. flok
Blues butcher the chance of scoring. Perhaps they should have taken the 3 points.
@ grootblousmile:
I missed the penalty, so didn’t know who scored.
Another penalty to the Blues. It is already way past yellow card time.
McAllister slots it.
10-6 at half time.
Thai red curry, with prawns on rice makes an epic breakfast.
OK, looks like I could get everything back up here… while the power lasts…
Loskoppie, you there??
