@ Loosehead:
lol. I am supporting the Guppies this time. It’s more important that we have 3 saffa teams in the play offs. Unfortunately Cheatahs competition is over and I don’t enjoy seeing ozzies and kiwis fighting it out over the super 15 trophy!

only bad thing about this match is skinstadt’s commentary. Why can’t he just swallow his tongue and choke!

Sharks Have huge lineout problems if the Lock-depleted Cheetahs manage to steal lineouts almost at will!

Loosehead on 4 June 2011 at 5:27 pm

And they say that Bismark is the best hooker in the world. 2 throw in’s, 2 misses. Remember that these are the VRY ST A A A A A A A A A A A A A A AT’s 3rd and 4th choice locks.

Loosehead on 4 June 2011 at 5:34 pm

Bismark took the ball out. How could that be a Tjarks throw in?

I just can’t seem to drink that coffee pinotage, which is unusual for me, as I drink most things.
