A Converted Dagbreek try will really put the beers amongst the tequilas for this one!
6 Minutes to go in this match
147@ Scrumdown:Hahaha, I spent most of my basics at Riemvasmaak – with all that pink stone!
We usually go camping for our midyear hols. Went to Namibia for the first time last year, and decided to go back again this year. We try and just do camping, teaches the kids a bit more about life, but my lot tent got torn last year, so he was determined to replace it with his own money. Just been joking with the ball and chain, that he’s finally a home-owner!
This Rugby is really of a VERY good quality considering everything.
SA Should be able to win EVERY World Cup if the talent available was used correctly IMO.
Eish SARU.
150@ Scrumdown:No, that would require some intellectual capacity, and he came off after he scored the last try!
Only 3 minutes to go… guess it’s all but over for Dagbreek
153@ Just For Kicks:
From Riemvasmaak to Cirencester.
Talk about Chalk and Cheese!
157@ Scrumdown:Hahaha, you’re right there!!!! And I know which one I preferred!!!!!
Less than a minute left in the game
Try to Klop-Klop-Klopper for Vishuis!
TMO
No try… scrum Vishuis
Good try, and game over
158@ Just For Kicks:
The rolling green landscapre of the Cotwolds with sheep quietly grazing in the meadow?
Try to Kapana for Vishuis!
Moari sidestep by the Vishuis replacement to score at the death.
Enjoyable game.
Final Score: Vishuis 44 / 26 Dagbreek
Well… that was the pre-entertainment!
163@ Scrumdown:You got it in one. As much as I liked carting those pink stones up every bloody koppie, there just weren’t enough pubs around!
Now you lot listen and listen good. They are called VIGSHUIS understand?
168@ Just For Kicks:
LOL. I know and understand completely.
169@ Loosehead:
A frequent visitor were you?
Ag wel… more is nog ‘n Dag(breek)
171@ Scrumdown: fukken Lions supporters!
169 @ Loosehead:
Which Res did you attend, Loskoppie?
173@ Loosehead:
And here I was about to pledge my allegiance to the FS for the rest of the Super Rugby season due to the exciting brand of footie they play, (seeing that the Mighty lions have a thorn (or 12) in their paws) and you come along and force me to re-think with such obscene and ill thought out, foul mouthed comments.
I feel really hurt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
174@ grootblousmile: Heldersig, which has since closed down.
175@ Scrumdown:
My most humble apologies for my vulgar language.
174@ grootblousmile:
Pretoria Central?
176@ Loosehead:
Gladly accepted.
I raise my glass in salute at the all encompasing Rugby currently being played by the Cheetahs.
A joy to behold.
178@ Scrumdown:Don’t raise it too high, Loosehead will knick it – especially if it’s a whiskey!
Dale Steyn just taken an awesome catch down low off his own bowling
