OK, here I have both picked the Sharks to win and WANT the Sharks to win.
Should the WP get no Log points, then the Bulls are past them on the Log… and on top of it, WP play the Lions next week
Go Sharks.
2 @ Puma:
Yip, Go Sharks….. spit-spit…. hehehe
Distraught France coach Marc Lievremont thinks a few drinks might be just the tonic he and his players need.
Not a strong WP side… many injuries
Players coming out
Game ON!
Handbags….
Whatever happens in this game after this game there wil be at least 3 teams in range for the Bulls to overtake, a possible 2nd spot on the log is even there for the taking.
@ grootblousmile:3 – Yeah see you supporting my Sharks for your Bulls sake..hehe.
