3 changes from last week:
Bissie, Alberts and Botes all to start.
16@ Puma:Just the Beast, and normal service will have been resumed!!! Go Sharks
16@ Just For Kicks:
Yeah we have missed Beast. Really wish he was ready for this game. Beast is starting in the Sharks XV on Saturday though, will be ready for our game after the bye. BUT was hoping he would have been back for this game. Still pleased to see that the big guy is back playing on Saturday.
17@ Just For Kicks:Odwa is missing bud, though he is a bit slow now, but his defence is superb. A solid player.
Not sure if we should have moved JPP to the wing to cover Masaga and let Bosman play at inside centre. Bosman has been playing better this year. Just a thought. Though with Chiefs centres, SBW and RK think we are covered well at centre with JPP and Whitehead. That Masaga though is brilliant and massive!!
@ Puma:
Who is that Du Toit youngster, from Oudtshoorn or somewhere in the SWD, I think?
@ Puma:
Good luck to your team this weekend mate. Chief are a hard bunch, but I think the Sharks can crack them. I went with my hart on this one and picked a Sharks win by 5. They just need to stop the Chiefs backline gaining momentum…much like what the Sormers did to th Landers.
Hahahaha, I apologise to all my Blue Bulls friends in advance……but, Go to Google Translate, select Afrikaans to English and type “ek is tog n bloubul”
The Live Game Articles for tomorrow’s 2 games, plus Saturday’s 1st game scheduled!
Remember, the 1st game starts at 09:35 in the morning (Highlanders vs Blues)
The 2nd game starts at 11:40 (Reds vs Stormers)
Only thing left for me to do is to pick on Bru…. mmmmm what’ll it be…..
Landers should take the 1st one… Stormers should take the 2nd one…
Looks like I’m a very good positive influence on my wife, Handbriekie… they were sponsors / Media partners in the Bulls Old Players Golf Day today at Wingate Park Country Club in Pretoria.
She sent 3 of her male workers to take part in the golf day… and she and her one manageress joined the festivities from about 16:00 today.
She says Pierre Spies is a big boy…. hehehehe
The guys from Handbriekie’s work, played in a 4-ball with Casper Steyn…. remember him?
He was a Bulls fullback / wing, who also kicked to posts for the Bulls… and eventually finished his rugby career with the Pumas.
@ grootblousmile:
Yip, I remember Casper well, very good player, played for Far North Cravens and Senior before moving to the Bulls.
He still holds some SA record for highest points scored in a Currie Cup match (against SWD, if memory serves).
26 @ Pietman:
Hy het sy kop so tussen sy skouers ingetrek as hy hardloop…
Bynaam was “Die Spook van Loftus”.
In 2010 was hy in ‘n ernstige motorongeluk en in ‘n koma vir ‘n ruk.
Busy watching Boots & All and they had some footage of the 1st Bokke Traing Camp (30 Lions & Cheetahs players).
Vibe looks good, everybody positive, Heyneke Meyer quite frank about his plans… and players seem to know where they stand.
Heyneke impressed and happy with the skill levels and generally with the camp.
Faaark, ek sukkel met die kos in hierie moosa plaaskombuis, weet nie waar die vrou als gebere het nie, moet kort-kort SA toe bel, sal flippin goedkoper wees om te gaan uiteet….hoef ook nie dan skottelgoed te was nie!
En so wag ek vir die rugby……
29 @ Pietman:
Hahahaha
My oorle Pa het ‘n gesegde gehad…. As jy sukkel word jy ‘n sukkelaar, so moenie sukkel nie!
Gaan eet uit man… flok!
