27 @ Scrumdown:

28@ Scrumdown:
You mean in being a flamyboyant comedian or not being able to count?
31@ grootblousmile:
The one next to the regs
33 @ Bullscot:
Hahahaha
Will be interesting to hear how the game unfolds this afternoon, maybe England will come out firing at the Boks and trying to play a high tempo game from early on and try quite a bit of attacking play with their backs, so Bok defence will have to be spot on early on, hope in the end the Boks take control and come out on top. Time to head away, won’t get to see this one, enjoy the game all. GO BOKKE!
33 @ Bullscot:
Bully,
Come on, you could give a much better weather forecast than I could for Durban at 17:00 to 19:00… do us one… please man!
The weather at Glenwood High School in Durban, where Glenwood and Maritzbugh College are playing at the moment looks really miffy….
Current temperature in Durban is around 21 Degrees C
36@ grootblousmile:
oh man quite tired and eyes are sore here but for you GBS had a quick look, looks like there is some rain about there at the moment but should stop quite soon for a wee time, so maybe quite cloudy for the game and not too wet, showers perhaps more likely later in the game, won’t be much wind either maybe a bit of a southwester springing up, looks like the game is at a reasonable time because not long after its over should become a good deal windier with rain around Durban. Temperature probably going down to around 17C or so by end of game. So after all that to sum up not the best of weather but not too bad either, certainly nothing like Newcastle was for the game against Aus on Tuesday. Have also sent you a message man, must really go get bit more rest now cheers vir eers.
I just watched Marcel Coetzee play College back into the match!!!
39 @ Bullscot:
Thanks man… answered back on Vleisboek too
Grass surface a bit slippery at Kings Park
41@ grootblousmile:
Ok buddy just had a quick look where the stadium actually is and see its in the north of Durban so maybe the rain will not clear as soon as thought, perhaps just still about at kick off, was looking more towards the airport side, quite a fine line there with rain now over much of Durban itself and north but down south now towards the likes of Amanzimtoti and Margate looks drier.
So the interactive video wall in the new studio is farked – showed Brad Barrett as the English prop. Confused the hell out of mallet. He was so put off, he started gibberish!
Stuart Barnes is convinced Morne Steyn is the weak link that the English will look to exploit. Tuilagi’s the man to do the job, so Barnes says
Weakness for England is at line out, according to Barnes
45 @ Just For Kicks:
Barnes is WISHING!
Kings Park stadium is a very upright stadium… one sits very close to the pitch, even high up.
The worm and Hougaard are synonymous according to Mallett
47@ grootblousmile:Hahaha
Gotta love Naas, not a weak link anywhere in that Bok team. Gooo Naaas
Hope you got all your shopping done GBS! GOOOO BOKKE!!!!!
52 @ bean1:
I got ALL the shopping done between the All Blacks / Ireland and the Wallabies / Wales game….
Took me all of 15 Minutes in the shop…. I’m an accurate and fast shopper, I know what I want.
I’m not a mall crawler like my wife, Handbriekie, and BonzaiHandbriekie, the daughter.
To me you shop, you pay, you go…. simple stuff
Conditions looking very bleak in debbin now
O flok, conditions in Durban is getting worse….
Are we fans or supporters?
56 @ Just For Kicks:
Knowlegable supporters… more like “Kenners” really…. hehehehe
Mallett recons Bokke by 6
@ grootblousmile:

59 @ bean1:
Yip, you and quite a few others… amongst them Durban Bulle.
