What a boring game.
59@ grootblousmile: the pink one?
@ grootblousmile:
Tony hangs out at Gansbaai in De Kelders sometimes, invited me for a beer but I had to take a rain check unfortunately, but would dearly like to hook up with this man again. We were in 8SAI together.
61 @ Loosehead:
Would actually like the Blues to take this one, without a bonus point… and winning by 8 or more, giving the Canes no Log points.
Of course my Bru pick was different
TRYYYYY CANES!
Tryyyyyyyyyyy Andre Taylor.
Fantastic work done by Cory Jane
Taylor spinning his magic again!
63 @ Pietman:
Yip, you must meet up with him!
Hurricanes 13 / 12 Blues
64@ grootblousmile: i think that everyone bru-ed the Canes, but would like the Blues to win.
Same for the Lions / Chiefs game.
High tackle on a Cane… advantage and then the penalty
Are the Bulls playing in pink today ?
Hurricanes 16 / 12 Blues
72 @ Blouste:
Yip, think so
Lemoenetyd
72@ Blouste:
74@ grootblousmile:
It is not pink, it is puce.
@ Loosehead:
Jou puce man 😉
@ grootblousmile:
@68 Will try, meet over a glass of Kicker’s best and talk rugby!
Btw, did you get the old rugby clip I sent you yesterday?
78 @ Pietman:
Yes, I did… frankly did not have a chance to put an Article up for it… will try a bit later, after the Bulls game
Video images are a bit dark and dodgy on it…
2 Nd Half ON!
Lineouts a freegin mess in the game
@ grootblousmile:
Would be nice, especially for loosehead to see that awesome Free State and WP sides of 1988 again, and my favourites the Biltongboere from Windhoek!
Anybody here still remembers ther likes of Sean McCully and Andre Stoop?
One can see these 2 sides are bottom of the NZ Conference… and why.
Some great players though in both sides
So moet ‘n Hurricanes scrum kak.
82 @ Pietman:
I remember them well…
BonzaiGBS and myself watched the clip together… 2 things he commented on:
1. How the rules have changed
2. He was amazed that South West Africa (Namibia) played in our Currie Cup and that they were strong
Try Savea??
TMO
Try Canes…
Try I think.
Try on first thought
Did he touch the line ?
