Yip, they are missing a good one!
Time for a fresh orange juice… need it this morning
Was such a pleasant day and evening yesterday, weather wise.. one would swear it’s not nearly winter here yet.
Sunny this morning too.
But I always say winter officially starts on 1 May here in SA…
Fresh juice in the morning goes down soooooooo well!
2 Nd Half ON!
64@ grootblousmile:Just the opposite here, weather horrible and bleak, could easily be mid-winter. More rain forecast for today too
Penalty Saders, 10m line… shot at goal
67 @ Just For Kicks:
No doubt then it’ll take about 2 days to get here… and fark up the beautiful days here for us
I see the parrot is warming up
Crusaders 17 / 13 Waratahs
70 @ Just For Kicks:
Wonder is the Parrot’s heel is really OK now….
… bad type of injury to have…
Hell, in modern day rugby some players are held together with Scotch Tape…
72@ grootblousmile:Was just thinking the same thing – 10 minutes on, tackled sideways and pinggggg…..
Tahs 5m out…
Try Palu
Waratahs 20 / 17 Crusaders
Morning all, welcome back Webmonster,
Still grumpy, so no reference to yestidy’s match, except commiserations with Goosens injury. Sias will have to get his head straight, but promptly!
Damn, I need this game for Bru… but would like the Tahs to dent the Saders for the SA Teams
Easy try, if given. Masses of space
Try Saders?
TMO
Try awarded
Crusaders 24 / 20 Waratahs
Penalty Tahs, very, very kickable
@ Cheetah4eva:Morning old chap – you’ve aged dreadfully in 12 hours!!!
Crusaders 24 / 23 Waratahs
I had Cheetahs by 2, had Sias nailed the sitter, I would have been sitting pretty on ‘ Bru! He will have to make it up to me now!
Crusaders beginning to hit a vein of form. Looking ominous with ball in hand.
@ Cheetah4eva: Did you see post on Goosen?
77 @ Cheetah4eva:
Hello,
Commiserations… and great pity about Goosen’s injury!
Saders penalty, Taylor slots it
Crusaders 27 / 23 Waratahs
Ahhh, this is Fruean’s game today
