ha bloody ha
@ bean1:
Hi there never chatted to you ,will get to know you better in time, score updates will follow, the game has just started so you might see most later.
@ Just For Kicks:
Thats 18 players out of the 42 man England touring squad I quickly counted who are out today because they played in yesterdays final, add to the prop Alex Corbisiero (good English name 🙂 ) – don’t know if he is injured, also James Haskell to show up from Highlanders, so there are lots more options out there. Don’t think any of the ’42’ are playing in today’s final.
@ superBul:
Much obliged superbul – I hear you are an avid gardener – it will be great to get to know you better

That score is sadly for you not a true reflection off what really happened out there in the Shark tank. The Sharks were much better on the day.
Bit of a dour game…. flok
82@ superBul:
Hello SuperBul, oeps what was that all about? Ernie always comes across as such a good bloke. Enjoy the cricket man.
98@ grootblousmile:
Problem is GBS they throw these Baa Baas teams together and expect them to gel at short notice, would expect especially their defensive pattern to be suspect
@ Bullscot:Thanks, Bully. Its good to see there is some more depth to come in still
Try Wade for England
@ bean1:
Gardening development and especially hard landscaping my big love, like to work with natural rock, but as soon as i get the experience to do rock art i will do that too, much easier and cheaper.
Don’t forget the RaboDirect Pro12 final kicks off around 5pm SA time. Will try pop back later and put scores up but for now need to get some beauty sleep before the nag skof, cheers for now all.
England 36 / 12 Barbarians
Not the best Barbarians side either… could have been much stronger

Ernie lost his cool because they did not water the greens and his language choice was in no ways diplomatic.
Just in case don’t make it back later if anyone is interested here is link to Pro12 internet updates, not actual footage of the game though:

97@ superBul:I can’t disagree with you more. The Stormers were absolutely woeful last night. They couldn’t have played worse if they’d tried. Hell, even their defence looked ropey. And for the Sharks to win by 5 only, shows how poorly they played most of the game. Yes there were segments where the Sharks played well, and thats where they got their points from, but overall, it was very average.

2 nd half Drinks break…
Double Vodka & Orange juice for me please
97@ superBul:To follow on, if any of the SA teams get through to the Semi’s and play like they did yesterday, they’ll get hammered
@ superBul:
You should come down here for Open Gardens – there are some brilliant ones round here – first 2 weekends of November
BaaBaas penalty, good kick to touch
Try Mike Tindall for the BaaBaas
YeeHaaa, Tindall the princess with a try
England 36 / 19 Barbarians
Brett Lee smashed all over the place, 19 off his last over
54/0 after 6
Lucky try, but is there a knock out?
Try England…. Wigglesworth
