    Damn why have a night game in winter? Crazy. Though not that cold here in Durbs. Around 18 right now. Temp should be down do around 16 by kick off. Still way warmer than it would have been if it was at Loftus. Think it is forecast for 5 there tonight.

    2 & 3 @ Puma:
    Massive game… also hoping for an injury free and clean game, which is officiated well!

    The night games are not nice, but I suppose we have to accomodate the Aussies and New Zealanders somehow, for viewing it too.

    4 @ grootblousmile:
    It is Peyper that is reffing. Don’t rate him much and we have damn M. Jonker as AR. He is just not up to it. Then another Jonker as the other AR and Veldsman as tmo. Don’t rate any of them. So hope they have a good game and don’t mess it up.

    Will be a very hard game but it will be clean. We had a very hard game against Stormers and it was clean.

    4 @ grootblousmile:
    Do you relise the position your team will be in if they win tonight? They will hold a quarter final at Loftus against the Saders now doubt and probably only have to fly to Cape Town for the final.

    If they lose they head off to Christchurch for the quarter there. So it is a must win for Bulls, BUT it is also a must win for my Sharks. Not only to get the quarter but for pride. If we win and want to make the play offs we need to win with a bonus.

    So all to play for for both teams. However, if my Sharks win with a bonus and again next week, we face a travel from hell coming up. Eish boet hate this new format. It sucks really. Damn daft who ever thought it up.

    Okay out of here for now. Going to watch the rest of the tennis until the rugby comes on. See Murray should take this one. So probably will be Roger and Murray in the final.

    GO SHARKS… 🙂

    Evening Chaps….How goes it?

    9: dit is waar, het ‘n gulde kans om die SA konferensie te wen weggegooi met die verloor teen die Stormers. Hier is nog ‘n kans om ten minste een tuissemi te kry.

    Bulle sal na die wedstryd 2,4 of 5 op die log lê.

    Sharks kan 6,7 of 8 lê na die wedstryd.

  • 12

    10: en hoekom word ek nie gegroet nie ?

  • 13

    10: Murray besig om te wen ?

  • 14

    So as die Stormers volpunte kry in hul laaste twee wedstryde, dan eindig hul eerste op die log. Hulle en Chiefs dan 68 (as Chiefs volpunte kry teen Canes), maar Stormers het een meer gewen. Kyk, as hul nie hierdie geleentheid aangryp nie, dan is daar geen meer hoop nie.

  • 15

    Kyk hoe leeg is die stadion ?

  • 16

    Howzit! Just made it back in time from Riyadh for the game, should be a great SA derby, this one…
    Frans Steyn might just be the difference tonite, my gutfeel.
