Shopping done?
Hello 🙂
Clever tactical play by the Chiefs….. well-rounded side, the Chiefs!
I see the Chiefs have their blocking technique down to a fine art for the final, not even the rain can ruin that move!!!
Surely that should have been a yellow card?
Head high tackle and early tackle by the Chiefs… Sharks penalty to get them out of trouble…. poor kick for touch, not out
Magnificent kick by JP Pietersen for touch…. and they steal the Chiefs lineout
JPP!!!! GO BOYS!!!! Bresler het SBW gesmeer, lekker! Moer hulle!!
Good stuff boys
Sharks penalty, right in front… offside!
Penalty to the Sharks in front.
Sharks 3 / 0 Chiefs
Puma…good luck to your team today. Do us proud Sharks!!
Ciao a tutti! Moer hulle stukkend Sharkies!
OKAAAY!!!3-0
Hel, maar die weer is sleg daar….maar laat waai boys!Tekkel!!!!!!
Nice one Sharks. Kanko was great in that lineout. HM had better have Kanko’s name at 8 later today.
JPP het SBW se nommer, amper onderskep daar..
