GBS weet jy hoeveel belangstelling daar onder ander bevolkings groepe is vir die WB?
My huishulp weet alles van die Springbokke, en die vrou wat by my vrou se werk skoonmaak luister SA se games op haar selfoon radio en hou Dalien heeltyd op hoogte, die mans ook by haar werk. Petrol joggies en winkels hier almal dra hul Sringbok truie op wedstryd dae, of Sringbok dae, Vrydae.
Ireland 36 / 0

Ja, ek sien dit ook, elke dag.
Rugby, the big Nation Builder!
Ek dink dis ook so omdat ons wittes ook Bafana Bafana ondersteun het in die Soccer World Cup.
