91: wie dra die broek in die huis ?
Lions didn’t concede any points although reduced to 14. Going to be difficult for Sharks to come back against a full strength Lions team in the second half.
Where is Puma….? Suppose he is shouting at the TV right now ! 😉
Vark Ladies, my nerves are GONE.
Lions look the fitter team, and look as if their brains are in a better space for this game.
Sharks are a great bunch of players, and f last week is anything to go by will come out with all guns blazing after the oranges.
I just hope the Lions keep focused. Need to hold out until Josh and CJ return, then score another few points. Then I am going to drink “soos die poppe dans”.
Enjoy the 2nd half.
Chat later.
113: julle cheetahs lekke bang vir vrouens hê ?
The guppies need to stop smoking at least a day before the match, this “heyyyyyy bruuuuu,……. relaxxxxxx” attitude doesn’t cut it in a final
Ref so far no real influence but the Ass Refs are trying their best to steal the show.
Leeus moet nie in verdedigings mode ingaan nie, die Sharks kom altyd sterk terug.
@ ben_die_bul:

Sharks counter attack, Michalak slips through… and Odd-one knocks
Killian knocks… Sharks can’t make anything from it, scrum Sharks
Try Alberts… but was there a knock?
