@ Puma:
sorry all sharks fans, this unfortunately brings the Chiefs back in the competition, once we had 3 SA sides in the top 6, how many will we have after this round?
@ grootblousmile:
Only ” 1 unbeaten team til tomorrow evening…”, you should say…. 🙂
92@ Pietman:
Ek hoop jy is reg….

@ grootblousmile:
Net Aplon staan tussen Bulle en oorwinning, as hulle op daai outjie gaan skop is daar kukkas!
@ Ashley:
Jisja Asjas, wat maak my peetkind? Voer hom pap ou maat, WP soek n scrummie….
pietman @ 95
hy bliksem my net rond, maa verder is hy orraait!! 😀
Ooops!! slight blip on the radar, if Sharks won this one, they would of opened a bit of a gap, it’s a long torny, and things change fast, last year the Cheetahs started poorly, and ended strongly, and so the ignoramus’ that are slating te White Tornado, I can only say ” Lord mkae my words sshweet, cos I might have to eat them!”
Stormers are on a hiding to nothing if they play like they have been, the past 3 matches. Bulls at home will be a big ask!!
That leaves the Lions vs Force….
Go CHEETAHS!!! Go Lions!! and unfortunately, Go Bulle!! ( I had to pick a side here, and the Stormers in general have been annoying me with their annual talk up!!
nee wat Ash, more aand gaan ‘n laaaaaaang aand wees vir Habanananananananana en sy makkers 🙂
#97 Cheetah, you did the right thing 🙂
Ierland bat teen 7.62 / over!!!!!!
47/0 in 6.2 overs
speel die bulls soos teen die highlander gaan pretoria baie stil wees na die game.
