@48
Barend’s son and Blue Bulls’ forwards coach should have been be two black ticks on his cv, to start with
Griquas 28 / 18 Lions
Kwasse stealing quite a few Lions lineouts… 4 so far
@ Just For Kicks:
Yes, saw that, said the same thing to the wife, two great off-loads in the tackle leading up to that try!
Both teams looking knackered now!
Lemoenetyd
England moseying along nicely in the cricket. 105/3 after 25 overs.
67 @ Just For Kicks:
I think this one is theirs… easily
Blue Moon tonight. Second full moon in the month. Only occurs ± every 2,7 years so won’t happen again until 2015.
Hence the saying “once in a blue moon”. Perhaps the Lions can wake up in time to see the next one?
2 Nd Half On!
Try Willie le Roux… Kwas bonus point!
Griquas 35 / 18 Lions
Kwas playing great running rugby, keeping the ball alive….
FFS. Time for the Lions to bulldoze the Park and close up shop?
Lions scrum penalty… strong scrum
Lions are going to have to pull something out of the bag to come back here. My ‘Bru has never looked worse – don’t think I have got one right yet!
Another Lions penalty…. and a great touch by Jantjies, lineout on about the Kwas 5m line
Kwasse steal the Lions breakdown ball
Geez. Rugby Union is becoming a game for Pansies.
Nee flok, die game word sag … kyk nou weer die sharp shoulder decision…. eishhhh
Belaglike strafskop.
79 @ Scrumdown:
The way this is going we’ll have a Miss Congeniality after the match in place of Man Of The Match
What goes through a players mind at times. Wobbly recovery and then run headfirst into 3 tacklers.
82 @ grootblouBokJan:
Yeah I really don’t know anymore.
I also really battle to understand the lack of consistency in some of the refereeing decisions.
I have no problem with the awarding of penalties for infingements, but keep it consistent please.
Kies Schoeman sommer nou vir die Bokke. Die mannetjie was vir maande beseer, en kyk hoe speel hy.
Hey boys… don’t point your sharp shoulders at anybody….. hehehe
87 @ grootblouBokJan:
‘Cause Big Brother will call on the TMO to punish you!
Een van die dae gaan hulle sê die rugbyballe se punte is te skerp… ons moet met ronde freegin balle speel….
How old is Schoeman?
