Go Chiefs, only cause I picked you guys on bru
Helloooooooooooo
Game ON!
I picked the Landers to win this one by 6 on Bru
Robbie Robinson misses an early Landers penalty to goal…. not a very good goal kicker
Try Jason Rutledge for the Landers, under the sticks
Landers 7 / 0
Morning folks….
Landers 7 / 3 as Stephen Donald slots a penalty
8@ fender:
Hello musikant!
2nd Penalty for Donald
Landers 7 / 6
Surely the Chiefs are due for a home win at some stage?
12@ fender:
They have had a home win…. they’ve beaten the Sharks
Ja, but the Sharks don’t count – even the Stormers beat them at home. 😉
Penalty Landers… Cowan takes it quickly
14@ fender:
Hehehe
Jinne, hierie Kiwi’s skop soos hulle lyk!
17@ fender:
Janee… soos hulle gatte
Lemoenetyd
2nd Half ON!
Try Brendon Leonard for the Chiefs
Too many subs on for the Landers after Halftime….
Chiefs 13 / 7
Morning All!
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
@ fender:
Have tried the 2011 Diemersdal Sauv Blanc?
As South Africans I suppose we have to hope the Chiefs win here… will be good for the Sharks and Bulls.
Same situation in the Waratahs / Force game, hope that the Force wins…
The gap at the top of the Log need to change in favour of the Sharks and Bulls, somehow
I like the guts the Landers have shown this season though and appreciate the type of rugby they play, but the business end of the competition is what it’s all about at the end of the day!
Penalty Chiefs, Donald misses a sitter
Chiefs are all over the Landers in the 2nd Half, so far…. yet only a 6-point lead
18 min left
Penalty Chiefs, easy one…. this should take it beyond 1 score..
Dwayne Sweeney misses…. can you believe it
