Damn, Sareltjie, brilliant, but you have single handedly stuffed my bru for this game! Must say, the 1st round matches have been a lottery. Only one I was reasonably sure of was the Bulls
Penalty Reds, easy enough to go for goal
Hope HM gives Sarel a springbok cap. We can’t afford to lose his talent to the Ozzies.
