6 @ PumaSpringbokJan:
Yip, me too… Bok Jersey and Bok Windbreaker on
7 @ grootblouBokJan:
Warm here so only need my Bok Jersey on.
Excited for this game now.
Go Bokke, bring us home the bonus point – that will set us up nicely at the top of the table
I’m looking for a solid win here… same next week in Argentina… and then we have a weekend off between that one and the game against the Wallabies
8 @ PumaSpringbokJan:
Warmish here too… I’m just being careful… hehehe
Ciao a tutti!
12 @ Gobble_BokJan:
Hello Jan Fruit Fly!
It’s so freegin hot over here that I have no clothes on. But a have a moerse long tattoo on my johnson displaying my support for the Bokke…
@ Gobble_BokJan:Gosh, I wish I was like you!
14 @ Gobble_BokJan:
Eish… too much info there….. oi vei!
Boks have to get the bonus for this one but I don’t think the Pumas are just going to roll over. Will be interesting to see just how good they are.
@ grootblouBokJan:
Don’t worry Smiles, there are no children present and if the image makes you uncomfortable, remember it’s 2012 and you can come out of the closet now
18 @ Gobble_BokJan:
Nee jinne… ek lê eerder op sterwe as op jou…
SA 33/0 at tea, going along very slowly at just 2+ an over. but now time to turn our attention to a real sport!
20 @ BokJan For Kicks:
Yip, 20 minutes to go till kick-off
@ grootblouBokJan:
ha haa! goeie een daai!
Yup, Puma’s not going to roll over easily. That forward pack is going to be the first thing the Boks must overcome!
Weather looks quite good in Slaapstad
Big Hooker for the Pumas… actually a prop
I am wearing Robbie Kempsons jersey from the test played on 28/06/2003 against Argentina.
26 @ LosBokJanKoppie:
Poor Robbie… now he has to wear yours, I suppose… hehehe
Booooooooolands has plenty empty seats it seems.
@ grootblouBokJan:
You’re on top form today, Smiles. Got lucky last night?
28 @ LosBokJanKoppie:
Starting to fill up nicely now
