Gooooooooooo Wales!
Go Wallabies. For our good friend. OLdG here.
Jammer die Iere kon die ding nie doen nie, elke keer as AB’s verloor en Bokke wen, skuif ons nader aan hulle op die ranglys.
Wallis !
GTStormer and Bean1 climbing up the Winter Tours ladder. Not looking good for us lads below them!!!
I’ve gone big on the Aussies for this one, but my hearts in Wales, so Gooooo Wales.
Players coming out
Anthems
Game on
Wales on attack
Tryyyyyyyyy
George North in next to the posts
Ballis het twee goeie sterk groot vinnige vleuels.
Go Wales! Moer the Wobblies!
Halfpenny slots the conversion.
Aus 0/7 Wales
Couple of penalties each way, as both teams find their feet
Sien die Aussie haker het vandag ‘n ander pruik aan as laasweek s’n.
Roof is closed, so no excuses for poor handling here
15@ bdb:He looks like something out of a 70’s porn film!
OK, I’m as clean and shaven as I can be…. Bokke shirt on… sletsappie in hand… and READY!
Gooooooo Wales!
Ah, I see George North scored before I got here… goodie
Lots of to-ing and fro-ing at the moment, but not much rugby
17: lyk sood ‘n jong Michael Jackson op steroids, voor hy/sy sy/haar duisende gesigoperasies gehad het om soos die whiteys te lyk.
Penalty Wallabies. Kickable
Barnes slots it.
Aus 3/7 Wales
Penalty Wales, this time. Touch
If Warburtan goes off with a injury, that will be Wales challenge over. Think they will struggle.
Warburton not looking to fit, but continues
25@ Puma:
meant – Warburton
Flag is for an off the ball incident
Dit is die probleem met die NH spanne, hulle druk een ou drietjie en dink dit gaan hul die game laat wen. Miskien in die 6nasie boring fest, maar nie in SH rugby nie. Wallis sal moet aanhou speel, nie soos nou net skop en verdedig nie.
@ Puma:
You sure not “Whoreburton”
