Hooter goes…. penalty Lions… halfway line
Can he get to the posts? No going for scrum
Jantjies goes for posts… no fark, they’re scrumming… eishhhhhhhh
Penalty after the hooterand the LIONS SCRUM with only 7 forwards.
Eish. Ek weet nie.
Was Appels onkant ?
3 very average games so far today, lets hope the next 2 are better
Captain forgets he’s a man down! Ha ha ha!
Ahhh, another penalty Lions… this one much more kickable
Lions will kick this now, and they will take the match.
Af is die as, Leeuwens se dobbel het gewerk….
And Jantjies will be the hero after all.

Whhooow send Jantjes to argentine by speed post, brilliant.
Congrats LIONS, sorry Berry, no wine for you 😆
And the Judas’ go back to their flat top mountain with only a bonus point.
Sweet my bra.
Phweeeew!
Elton is die man, verseker….ek se dit al lankal, ek en Turkey, maar dan lag die mense ons mos uit.
Will someone PLEASE tell AC to take a break. WP have so much potential, and gifted ball players. To see this style of rugby being coached into them saddens me greatly

196: kan nie glo 40 mense kan so raas nie ? 😉
204: WP het dieselfde probleem as BB, ouer spelers lei nie van voor nie.
See you all on the next thread

Ja Swaer. As hierdie 40 Boksburgers elkeen ‘n bottle Klippies in het kan hulle BAIE raas.
@ Piet-Springbok-Jan:

nee hel die outjie gaan nie verdwyn nie, ek het ook baie agter hom gestaan. Hoe gouer die groot koppe van Springbok afrigting hom en die hele Carlos faktor begin GEBRUIK hoe gouer gaan ons New Zealand inhaal.
