    @ Piet visagie:
    no problem piet visasie 😆 we have had weeks of arrogance from wp suporters

    the snide derogatory comments from them was non stop

    karma is a bitch

    see if we lose , shit happens its rugby a sport , and i am sure if the lions win it would be because they played great rugga and deserved to win

    i have never made nasty comments about eny other team till today , well you guys must learn to not only give , but take it when it comes back 😉

    Well done Reds. Bad luck Stormers.

    Now can’t see any team over take Saders at the top of the log. Only the Blues may. Probably see Blues and Saders in the final. Who knows it could happen. Might be a blessing for our rugby for wc. Our players will have some rest. Just taking the positive out of it if none of the saffa teams make the final.

    nee hel superbul ek weet nie..

  • 166

    Not a good weekend for SA Rugby…

    Stormers bubble has now burst, and their supporters will hopefully now come back down to mother earth.

    sharky,ek was niks grootbek nie..

  • 168

    The only reason why i am happy is, my WP fans wont phone me now to give me lip. Sorry Stormpies julle moet weer leer driee druk , hoeveel dinges moes ek in my lewe opvreet omdat ons met skoppe gewen het. Flok 9 driee in 7 games.

    159: Eish, watter dag was daardie nie, met hoeveel moes die Bulle wen om deur te gaan, toe doen hul dit met baie meer.

    Amper so lekker as daardie 75-14 wen in 2005 teen ‘n sekere span, of die 2009 finaal.

    Ou super, ons het darem daai memories in die sakkie, ander moet dit nog maak.

    Bulle !

    @ superBul:
    just for that i will make sure my team kicks lions ass 😆

  • 171

    Well if teams are not gonna score tries they gonna lose. My feeling. The team that gets the tries will win always in this tourney.

    Saders are gonna be even harder to beat at Newlands. Eish! Saw plenty Captonians in the stands supporting Reds when they scored. VERY disappointed to see that. Thought it was only the kiwi sides they supported.

    Now PLEASE Sharks win tonight. Just hoping cause I think this is a good Lions side. They too could have beaten Stormers and Bulls if they had a kicker. That is true so being honest. So Sharks must play smart tonight. Lions will come at us with everything.
