Indeed
Ruled held up… Blues scrum, 5m out
Great tackle by Perenara we must add…
@ Blouste:
Interesting discussion by you and TonyM yesterday, I enjoyed that.
TonyM is pretty clued up with the goings on down in EP.
Passionate sportsman and proud wearer of the green and gold himself once, our TonyM from 8SAI in the Kalahari
6 – 5 Blues
Penalty Blues… Weepu slots it again
Blues 6 / 5 Hurricanes
These Kiwis must enjoy being reffed by a decent Ref and not the crap that comes out of NZ or OZ.
34@ Pietman: Tony M played for the Boks?
@ Pietman:
Hi Pietman
How are you doing and where in the world are you now.
Yes, a touchie subject that I suppose but in the end logic should just prevail. Unfortunatly in this beautiful country of ours thats not always the case…
@ Loosehead:
🙂
Canes penalty…. the game see-sawing between 22’s it seems
Hurricanes 8 / 6 Blues
Jeez I almost thought he pulled an Ebersohn on himself their 🙂
“pulled an Ebersohn”…excuse the pun 😉
Penalty Blues, score to change again…
Many penalties in the game… this time an easy one for the Blues again
@ Loosehead:
Springbok canoeist, and provincial rugby flanker, career cut short by serious back injury.
9 – 8 Blues in the lead again.
Blues 9 / 8 Hurricanes
50’s up
Dag mense….hoop Blues wen vir die log se onthalwe…hoop Hurricanes wen vir my Bru picks se onthalwe…..either way, a good result
Now let’s just turn the page.
47 @ Pietman:
Add to that, TonyM was the Spears CEO… but when it changed to become the Southern Kings Cheecky and cohorts had worked him out of the picture.
TonyM knows ALL the SARU shennannigans regarding the Spears and Kings, the court cases against SARU, which the Spears won….
Kannie wag vir die Bulls game nie… 2 weke uitgehonger vir regte rugby 😉
51 @ bos_otter:
Hello Os_Botter
Blues penalty in the Canes half… not too difficult
Cheeky…now there’s a name that might just make me nauseous…
@ Blouste:
@39
Working on a contract in the Gulf, nearly done, on my way to SA in a week or so.
Yes, touchie subject, gonna get even touchier as Tony says.
Wait for old Cheeky and his cronies to start their politicking and back-biting once they smell the money…
Lots of raw talent down their though, just look at EP/Border Craven week teams.
54 @ Blouste:
Ja, sien uit na ons span se rugby… ek het my Bulls blou trui aan…
Blues 12 / 8 Hurricanes
