@ Loosehead:
So bek kort Tequila….hou die blink kant bo chaps….praat weer more!!
@ Scrumdown:
Hey, at leastyour team has a win behind their names.
I’m sure my Pastor friend, Pierre, who was the lucky one to get some tickets, broke all his vows and swore like a trooper tonight!
Hehehehhe
@ bos_otter: Meer as een.
Ah well.
Goodnight all.
Gonna grab a frostie and wait for the Demigods to grace us with their precence so they can spout forth the usual list of bullshit excuses……….”let our community down”……”not accuraste enough”………”didn’t follow the game plan”
Just send us a freekin pre recorded tape, then we won’t have to wait an hour while the great ones annoint themselves with oils and scents from foreign lands.
EISH……………I AM GATVOL.
244: hoekom dink jy die Cheetahs gaan die Bulle wen ?
@ grootblousmile: Lets hope so!
Even Kaptein Sardyn (Josh Strauss), was a bit disapointing tonight
242@ Loosehead:
Big deal.
We can’t win against a nondescript bunch of grey people on our home turf.
I am really losing patience with this mottly crew.
BIG FKING DEAL. WE WON THE CURRIE CUP.
246@ ben_die_bul: Beacause I am a dreamer, and a free thinker. I also believe in the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.
Also you blerrie Bulls supporters have ir WAAAAAAY too easy on this site.
250 @ Loosehead:
Bwahahaha
@Supa,
Jy moet maar skree as ek die Bedford moet sleep Hoedspruit toe! As dit by rugby kom is ons weerskante van die rivier, maar ek sal help waar ek kan lol
Ons hou ook asem op, hoor daar is groot reen oppad! Sterkte ou maat, ons gaan nog die biertjie in die tuin drink!
249@ Scrumdown: Sjoe, take it easy, it is only a game. It could be worse, you could support the Sharks, who are going to get a ploes klap from the Stormers tomorrow.
236@ Scrumdown: I really think the uncontested scrums ruins a game, especially for the team more dominante in the scrums. Time for a extra prop allowed on the bench.
Early season still Scrumdown, still plenty more games to come. Lions will come back from this loss. Just hope it is not next week…lol.
@ Scrumdown:
At least you won something in the past 12 years… Unlike some teams…
250: dink dit gaan ‘n baie taai wedstryd wees. Tuisveld voordeel vir die Cheetahs en die Bulle kan dalk oorgerus wees oor hul gewen het in die opwarmingswedstryd.
251@ grootblousmile: Are you laughing at me China?
I need to do the game Articles for tomorrow morning’s first 2 games quickly… otherwise I might just oversleep again…
Sharks gaan die Stormers verras, hou hierdie spasie dop.
@ Scrumdown:

i just hope that my previous experiences with this repeats itself.
The river beds are open now so water will flow faster and more freely, so hopefully no big dams will break, those massive walls of water is devastating.
Thanks for the concern.
Our support services aka Municipality dont know how to restore clean water…. $0 days of carrying water , not likely to stop soon.
257 @ Loosehead:
Yip!
Toulon gaan nou speel, dit is moes die span vir wie Bakkies baklei, ek bedoel speel ?
Oh shit, I forgot that GBS is from Brakpan Apologies, no offenceintended, please don’t me with your baseball bat.
256@ ben_die_bul: Stop being so humble, the Bulls 2nd team klapped tge VRYSTAAT’s 1st team 2weeks ago.
262 @ ben_die_bul:
Hahaha
263 @ Loosehead:
Flok jou en die ene wat jou ge-abba het toe jy ‘n baba was…. hahahaha
Oh…. and VRYSTAAT kannie skrum nie! Freegin klomp telletubbies!
Weet nie of julle gesien het nie, maar Adongo wat van die Sharks gekom het, speel Maandag aand vir Tukkies teen Shimlas. Nie geweet hy is ‘n student nie, wat is sy hoofvak: Afrikaans ?
265@ grootblousmile: Dik swak! I am lank offended.
267 @ Loosehead:
Get over it…
Tonight and tomorrow you are my mortal enemy!
Night folks, I have to get up early to prepare for a breakfast function.
296 @ Loosehead:
Cheers
