I’ll be moving between the Heineken Cup Article and this one…
@ The_Young_Turk:Yup, I said in a thread earlier in the week that I thought that for WPRFU to be approaching their “business” in the way that they have over the last year or so, that I think that their financial affairs are not as robust as they’d like them to be. I can see a move to CTS, but not before the union is in a complete financial mess A La The Grece Meltdown and the move is forced. GBS will have a field day, and the sad thing is we may all end up supporting the Blou Balle – God forbid!
Grece = Greece
@ grootblousmile:angola, Ops Modular – didn’t see a bath for an awfully long time – they literally burnt our browns (by then completely black!) as we came out
244 @ Just For Kicks:
Suppose they called you ‘Stinky’ then… hehehe
@ Just For Kicks:
Yes, unfortunately it looks like things have to first collapse before sense will prevail. Personal short term gain before whats best for the organisation as a whole and society at large.
@ The_Young_Turk:
Unfortunately it’s tragic how many of the masses and ordinary people have been brainwashed into buying into policies that go against their own interests.
242 @ Just For Kicks:
I would not be happy if WPRFU imploded… it would not be in SA’s interests.
Well let me re-phrase… I would not be happy if WPRFU imploded any more than they already have….
245@ grootblousmile:possibly, but all 4 of us were in the same boat
249 @ Just For Kicks:
What year was Ops Modular?
248@ grootblousmile:It’s going to take some cool, calm heads, some serious decisions, and as YT says, a move to CTS to stop the implosion, I fear
250@ grootblousmile:’87
Hello all, we had great rain last night. Cricket looks better,
252 @ Just For Kicks:
OK, 1987… so you’re not that young, 4 years or so my junior. I’d finished my 2 years National service end of 1985.
253 @ superBul:
Hello SuperBees
Ja my mater hoe gaan dit met jou, sien jy het die swembad skoon gemaak. Ek swem al lankal , is darem maar vrek warm hier, heel week by die 40 grade rond
It looks like the pitch is starting to play up a bit now, could be an interesting last innings
208/3 SA lead by 178
Think this will be a draw if the weather is anything to go by. See it is forecast for rain up in Joburg for the next 3 days.
256 @ superBul:
Nee, geswem… nie skoongemaak nie…. dit was maar woes warm hier ook, maar nie so erg as by julle nie.
Werk jy nog hard…. hehehe
Amlaaaaa, he’s really starting to piss Mitchell off!
3 X 4’s in that Mitchell over, love it
You farkers let me talk alone there on the Rugby thread… eishhhh
Would be great if these two batsmen can go on to their centuries…
262@ grootblousmile:Sorry, mate, but am looking forward to a couple of centuries here, will cross-over after that
262 @ grootblousmile: 🙂 Will catch up on the rugby thread after the crici gbs.
Have to go out for about a hour.
Catch up later.
@ grootblousmile:
You were keeping the seats warm for us
