328@ Loosehead:Then milk it whilst you can, mate!
Lol, this is my first year of Superbru, so I will just keep thumbsucking
If that won’t work, I will flip a Kruger lol
329: sal baie graag ‘n Bulle vs Stormers finaal wil sien, maar op Nuweland. 🙂
Maar eish, soos my span vanaand gespeel het gaan hul dalk die semi’s maak maar nie meer nie.
OK boys… that’s me out for the night.
See you in the morrow, sometime
I am outta of here, it was tough not having the White Tornado in action, but lots to look forward to next week!
Lekker slaap manne, en manninne!
Cheetah groete
Hell, let’s just chase this thing over 350 comments… why not!
Parting thought! Congrats to Steyntjie for overtaking the Golden Goosecon the points table! It was a mighty effort, considering, the Goose was idling lol! But next week he will be racking them up again lol
At least the Bulls have a bye before they go on tour…. so that’s another 4 points in the bag… easy peasy… hahaha
333@ bdb:They’ll bounce back, I think they were too cocky tonight, built a good lead, then sat back, took the foot off the accelerator, and thought they could defend the total. They won’t make that mistake again
It was after our previous bye that the Bulls moerred the Reds so heavily, was’nt it?
Come on… only 10 to go… speed blog!
Ok, gauntlet accepted! Interestingly enough, both game threads last week ended on zigzacharly 322 comments!
From the dept of useless info
336@ grootblousmile: why the fark not.
338@ grootblousmile:Yup, long season, they need the rest
@ Just For Kicks:
True there, they just didn’t expect that the Brumbies would actually get so close…
@ grootblousmile:
Bulls with that Bye will go on tour no less than fourth, and that for me is a great/better start than i ever expected. So much happening in our camp , for us to be where we are ….. not a bad feeling.
343 @ Loosehead:
Fanks!
Waaaaaaas almal nou?
GBS tell us just how good Johan Goosen is.
Only the Sharks making a blimp on SA wins this week… pity they could not beat the Chiefs!
What prize do I get for being 350th?
Right, by the time I write this, hopefully you’ve reached 350, so I’ll say goodnight, and thanks all for the great company, see you next week
Honest now, Who is going to pick the Lions to beat the Brumbies next week?
349 @ Loosehead:
Goosen is very, very good… almost in Morné Steyn’s class already!
Ooops, took one up the rear!!
Morne kicked so much better with his new coloured boots, hope he never tries that pienk sheeet again
351 @ Cheetah4eva:
Nothing… I have 350 all sown up!
I must say that the Brumbies really look like a well drilled unit. A team without any stars, and they are well ahead of the other Aussie teams.
351@ Cheetah4eva:Yes, you win a Range Rover, an Island in the Indian Ocean, a private jet, A 45 bedroom house in Constantia, and….Oh, too bad, you’ve just missed it by 1.
Whoooo haaaaaaaaaaa
