Goooooo Waratahs….
Eishhhh, pains me to say it!
Players coming out
Game ON!
This one will be an interesting tussle
I don’t have the strength for another game after watching the ref cheat the Freestate out of a win. Maybe see you all later.
Kickable penalty to the Tahs…
5 @ Loosehead:
No man, stick it out… be a man!
Waratahs 3 / 0 Highlanders
I see the Proteas are at the game, watching, in the stands
My Bru pick for this one is Waratahs by 4.
Must say, was a bit of a thumb suck!
Penalty Waratahs, just too far out
9: wonder of hul nie te vroeg verklaar het nie, met nog ‘n hele dag se spel oor ?
12 @ bdb:
Ek dink ook so… so 70 of 80 lig, voel ek.
Daar’s nog 1 hele dag van spel oor… 8 wickets wat staan
Another kickable penalty to the Tahs… Halangahu slots it.
Waratahs 6 / 0 Highlanders
Penalty Landers, easy one, but Landers tap and go…. try Smith for the Landers, right next to the sticks
Die ou wat daardie nuwe stadion gebou het, het geweet wat hy doen. Pawiljoen naby die veld, klink soos ‘n sokkerstadion wat vol is en tog is daar nie so baie mense nie.
Highlanders 5 / 6 Waratahs
Helter skelter stuff
Nou vra ek: hoekom kan die Tahs in hul mooi ligblou truie speel in ‘n wegwedstryd teen die donker blou Landers maar bul se kind moet in pienk gaan speel teen ander spanne wat ook in (donker) blou speel ? Ek eis ‘n verduideliking van SANZAR.
Landers hot on attack… 5m lineout for them
Penalty advantage to the Landers….
Penalty comes, they tap and go again… and they get yet another penalty.
Landers trying to make this game super fast
19 @ bdb:
Etzakkerly!
Shot at goal for Colin Slade
Slade misses the sitter
Kommaan manne en maninne… praat saam!
Ek hou van myself en my eie stem… dis goeie geselskap… maar dis beter as julle saamgesels!
Bryce Lawrence straf by ‘n rugg. Interessant
Penalty Landers, between halfway and the Tahs 10 m line, about 7m from touch
27 @ leon:
Leon die Bul…. waar in die wêreld bevind jy jouself?
Ek sou dink jy sit in Pretoria…. ja dis gewis so…. ek kan so sien.
Lyk of jy in die Moot sit… nie te vêr van die Magaliesberg nie
Penalty Tahs, just further than halfway
