Gooooooo Landers… heheehe
Players coming out onto the pitch
My bulletjies gaan hulself nog hard skop vir die verlore teen Blues en Stormers op Loftus.
Go Landers, haal die Rooies uit.
Maar gaan die Landers gemotiveerd wees vir hierdie laaste wedstryd ?
I picked the Reds by 7 on Bru
Game ON!
Early penalty Landers… within range… kick to touch
Saia Faingaa moet pasop, as hy so vir Andre P Brink (Adam Thompson) in die gesig druk, gaan hy gemoer word!
Back and was just in time to see SBW mess it up for his team…LOL. What a plonker, from hero to zero me thinks…hehe. Should have past there instead of trying to go it alone and be the hero… 😆
Come on Stormers get the try bonus point tomorrow and go to top of the log. Let us have another final here in South Africa. It could still be Stormers and Bulls in the final. Will be great to see another all saffa final. Well Bulls have to come past my Sharks first. Still hoping though for a Sharks win tonight.
@ Puma:
Yes, SBW took them on alone with two men out wide and in the clear, bloody stupid move that bru.
8 @ Puma:
IF, and that’s a BIG IF, the Bulls win with a bonuspoint tonight against your Guppies, they will briefly top the SA Conference Log…. and it’s always possible for the Cheetahs to somehow beat the Stormpoppies in Bloemfontein too… here’s hoping!
Penalty Landers, this time they go for goal
Highlanders 3 / 0 Reds
Penalty Reds, and a chance to draw level
Highlanders 3 / 3 Reds
Landers with an attacking lineout in the Reds 22
Flok, Kaplan is missing a good game….
Reds penalty on halfway
9 @ Pietman:
SBW was a daft really, trying to be the hero he messed up bad for his team there. Anyhow all good for the saffa teams now.
10 @ grootblousmile:
If Bulls get the bonus point for sure they will only head the log tonight, but it will be for only one day…lol. Stormers will beat the Cheetahs tomorrow. Well I just can’t see them lose, then they had a hard time against the Lions last week, so who knows. My feeling this loss by the Chiefs will pump up the Stormers to get their first 4 try bonus point win.
18 @ Puma:
Cheetahs are very leaky on defence…. if the Stormers do not get 4 tries it will be their own conservatism to blame
Landers penalty, great counter-ruck
19 @ grootblousmile:
Agree.
Another Landers penalty.. and both teams get a team warning
Missed right by Delany
Come on Landers! Moer the flokken Reds stukkend!
Reds almost through… but Surfer Dude was in front of the kicker… penalty Landers
Wie was die Landers losskakel wat beseer is en uit is vir die seisoen ?
26 @ bdb:
Gareth Anscombe?
As Reds wen met ‘n bonuspunt dan skuif hul in 6de plek, as hul verloor of net 4 punte kry bly hul op 7.
28 @ bdb:
Die Reds is NIE hul gelyke va verlede jaar nie… nie voor of agter nie!
27: nee, hy is van Blues, ander ou.
