70 @ Blue Bird:
Hello
Go Bokke!
Welsh are up for this game but I’m not sure they have the firepower.
We play far too much near our own 22 for comfort. Get away from there
Wales really going through the phases
Did Philips also go to FdP’s acadamy?
This is nerve wrecking get away from there
Butch warming up??
Jean off, Butch…
Come on Bokke!
Sorry for JdeV but this is where i would like Butch
Another knock by Jaque Fourie
Ahhhh nice steal by THE BRUSSOW!!
Butch must just remember that his arms are there for a reason. USE them please Mr James.
Not straight into the lineout by Barney… eish
