Well done Guppies, great win.
@ Just For Kicks:
thanks love – will do!
Right….now for the Stormers demise…. 🙂
@ Pietman: the first ever Currie Cup final was played in 1937 between Tvl and WP with WP winning.
The first Currie Cup went to the ‘Kwas after the lost only 0-3 against the British Lions. WP won it the next year.
But yes Kimberly is never easy.
Final Score: The Sharks 53 / 11 Western Force
Force cops a desent hiding!
@ Just For Kicks:
Wragtag!
And Jannie was married to beautie as well, Ellen Liebenberg, Miss Namibia 1973.
Eishhh, wine going to the toppies’ pants, it seems…
Now we see how the connection goes here, all the hacks and quacks in place, lets hope connection holds up – unless the Cheetahs start winning of course, then I’ll go into hiding!!!! Goooooo Stormerssssss!
Freegin hell, a 42-point margin…. guess my 12 was not enough… hehehe
Thx. Knew it was Griquas who won it, thought against WP,……a bit before my time…just!@ djvanman:
277@ Pietman:Yup, caused a huge rift in the family. I heard last week that father and son have patched things up a bit, so thats good
SA have 3 teams in the top6 places
Well done Sharks
@ djvanman:
But is it really only the first time WP reached the final? I seem to recall a final against the Bulls some 5 years ago, with the same Brummer kicking all the points and Ishmail Dollie missing most?
@ Just For Kicks:
RT going orange!! Nahhh It wouls look silly…
Tell me, do you produce Sauv Blanc? I am gagging for a glass right now!
@ Just For Kicks:
Jean and Ernie still producing?
Now for the best defense and the best attack
SHARKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Well done to my Sharks. 5 points in the bag and now sitting at 6th. Still well placed.
Hope Lambie is okay was playing superb tonight again. Brilliant line break from him to set up Jordaan for his try. Now just hoping like crazy he is okay for the rest of this tourney. We sure as heck need our star flyhalf.
Great to have Beast again. Can see how much he brings to the scrum. Well done to him on mom too.
Really feel good for now to see 3 saffa sides in the top 6th positions in this tourney. Exactly where we should be seeing the saffa sides.
