So much talent in that Racing team, but not today
30@ grootblousmile:He’s not the only one, judging by some of the quotes on various websites and twitter. Great try by the Pocket Rocket
Try by Brent Russel for Clermont… he’s playing on the right wing

32 @ Just For Kicks:
Shock and Horror.. you’re reading other blogs??
Lemoenetyd in the Clermont / Racing game
29@ superBul:Saru just passing the buck, trying to make the unions come up with a solution – It really is a joke.
28 @ superBul:
WaterloseBul, gelukkig is dit warm weer by julle, so mens kan die koue water so bietjie beter vat…. hehehe
32@ grootblousmile:Always scouring for something of interest that may have been missed – only doing it for you boss, just making sure the rabble read it here first!!!
Fransie Steyn looking a little lost against the Clermont backline attacks, does’nt he!
39 @ Just For Kicks:
I know… not to worry… I’ll not condemn your actions
I see the Tjarkies bliksemmed Boland 62 / Zip in their warm-up.
Another snippet gained from the ether – Flip vd Merwe is out of todays game – stiffness in leg, replaced by Wilhelm Steenkamp
43 @ Just For Kicks:
Damn, that’s a biggy!
43 @ Just For Kicks:
Do you know who comes in onto the bench in place of Wilhelm Steenkamp?
Gerrit-Jan van Velze
46 @ Just For Kicks:
Thanks, thought that would be the case!
Steyn certainly not at his best, but he is a very strong lad!
48 @ Just For Kicks:
Just wish Fransie Steyn could come back to SA on a permanent basis!
Oh, forgot to add…
Clermont 21 / 6 Racing
Gerhard Vosloo is playing shitty… and those animated arm gestures… eishhhh
… he’s become a French prima-donna, it seems
49@ grootblousmile:Would be great, problem is, money aside, he loves it over there – it’s a great life, I too loved it. I did 2 seasons there (winemaking), and it truly is a great country if you get into it, from a cultural, sporting and food point of view.
52 @ Just For Kicks:
The French don’t like English as a language too much though…. language barrier not a bit of a problem at times?
Must say, our Rugby-Talk visitor numbers have been picking up nicely again, I keep comparing the last 30 days….
Will be good come the start of the Super Rugby comp.
Clermont 24 / 6 Racing
53@ grootblousmile:They don’t mind English as a language, as long as you’re not English, if you see what I mean. So as a South African, they are very warm to you. Paris and Nice aren’t that friendly, but I guess that goes for any big city, but outside that, the best country I have ever been to. I also picked up a bit of the language to which helped!
Wonder when Srumdown will start with the Lions Super Rugby contenders…. he’s promised his input, waiting for him before I start on the Sharkies
OK, I’ve switched over to SS 2… with the Bulls / Cheetahs game due to start in about 10 minutes
Very good grubber, but thats about all!
