Reds penalty under their own sticks…. relief sought
When the Lions have a bit of confidence, they look so much better. Just wish they believed in themselves a bit more
Dink net, as Bulle hierdie ref gehad het (tackle release) dan het hul dalk ‘n kans gehad vir wen ?
Lions steal their 2nd Reds lineout
Reds penalty….
…….and that last play was precisely my point
Jantjies now in top spot with Bambie for Bok flyhalf after Morne’s less than perfect kicking performance against the landers
Shot at goal…. 44m out… in front
Eish, daar begin die knocks en missed tackles.
Reds 13 / 6 Lions
Reds by 7 so far, another 25 to go for my bru pick….
The most wonderful scrappy play from both sides – makes for great viewing
Digby Ioane has so many tattoos, he should be sponsored by a Paint Company like Plascon
@ Just For Kicks:
messy…
Eish, the Lions playing some good rugga in-between the cockups. Taute looking very good
Gbs I think the problem is on your side. Still my posts not going through. Only the odd post gets posted. Just says “Website declined to show page”
I have rebooted my adsl, restarted my laptop and also cleared all temporary internet files.
Will try and blog in keo for a bit and see if my posts go through there, if so then it is definitely coming from yourside.
Back in a min.
Penalty Reds, not far out
Leeu op sy voete, maar ref blaas vir die Reds.
gbs I might be picked up as spam here. That has happened before on sw and Rob fixed it.
Okay now going to try and post on keo and see if my posts go through there.
76 @ Puma:

Let off for the Lions
Justice.
Reds butcher a certain try, but lions defense has been surprising!
72: lyk soos twee stormers spanne wat teen mekaar speel, g’n wonder jy hou daarvan nie ?
Reds very close again
@ bdb:
Reds scrum, just before halftime
Come on Lions, don’t lose any more points before you go down the tunnel
@ grootblousmile:
Just be straight and honest with the oompie, Smiles. Tell him you just farking with him and you’ve sorted his problem out.
84@ bdb:Touche!
