76 @ Pietman,
Vleis stays in Nelspruit, and the man does his name credit lol. I played a match against him, and had the dubious pleasure of having to tackle him lol. But what a great oke, after getting the dust out of my eyes, he helps me up, and says, great tackle ou maat lol.
He has had his tough times as well, but he has steel in him.
Penalty Rebels, they kick for touch
The boytjie from Oakdale gets the bonus try….and Steyn drills another conversation! Wow! GO THE PINK!!!!!!!
Didn’t think the Nulle would be troubled by the Rabble! Gonna, maybe Heynecke should rather just make all the Cheetahs bokke
Penalty advantage Rebels… quick tap… not back 10
