Stirling Mortlock on
@ Pietman:
Ek stem saam man….bledie refs moet bietjie hulle vingers uit hulle gatte trek, die guts kry en die verdomde cheat geelkaart
Come on Rebels. Right on the Saders heels still.
Blitzbokke leading 24 / 0 against the Porras
Crusaders looking a bit average today
98 @ bos_otter:
I was way overoptimistic on Bru for the Saders, it seems
@ grootblousmile:
lol…sam here, not as much as you, but picked them to win by 20
Robbie Freuan has been very quiet today
@ Pietman:
76@ grootblousmile:
Just enjoyed his posts here. Send him a e-mail gbs, get him back for when the games are on.
Jojojo….maar die Saders jaag lekker aan
….and thats another tasting done and dusted – hopefully my last one before I head off to slaapstad for some live rugby! Been a while since we’ve had that around here!
102 @ Puma:
Will do… just do not want to invade privacy too much…
77@ bos_otter:
Hope so Bos,
Just a bit worried about the Pocock factor, otherwise think we should take this one.
MaKou pinged again….
15@ grootblousmile:
Don’t think you are invading privacy there at all if you e-mail him, especially because he was a regular here when the games were on.
Blitzbokke 41 / ZIPP against the Porras so far
101@ Puma:I see he sneaks onto Bru for his predictions, and then buggers off again.
@ grootblousmile:
lol….nice 🙂
Rebels tackling and knocking them backwards….take note Saffa teams, way to go against the Saders.
Blitzbokke won 41 / 0 against the Porras
Rebels penalty and the crowd chants for a Card.. no card
Throw him up in the air….wheeeeeee!!!1
16 Minutes to go… still a 3-point game.
Maybe this game puts the Bulls score against the Rebels in perspective
Really don’t understand why all the refs are gentle, gentle 😯 with the kiwi sides?
Val hy sy ou moer suur, geen support….maar goeie speler Reid, een van die min wat ek van hou in Crusaders.
110@ Just For Kicks:
Could be busy to blog and only have time to make his picks?
Gbs will e-mail him, he has been a regular here for game days for over a year now.
118 @ Pietman:
Read is an excellent No 8
