Penalty WP, and the Cat for the corner. WP line out 5m inside Kwas 22
….and then they mess it up
Agree, Loosie, some very average reffing today – at least he is consistent…. consistently wrong!
Take a scrum,
WP ring the changes
Penalty try awarded
GREAT SCRUM BY BROK!
31/14 WP
Silly by Venter, Kwas were looking good there
Good work by the Kwas to turn over that ball
WP hooker isn’t a bad player.
Gio replaced by de Allende – he looked like he was limping a bit. Crowd 8530. Pathetic really
Oh look. A kick that wasn’t directly into the hands of an opponent. HM would not approve.
@ Loosehead:Yup, Scarra the find of the season, I think – as I say that, he scores!!!!
1st Curry Cup try!!!! One very happy chappie
Scarra jou lekka ding!
Dancing girls!
Time for another beer.
38/14 WP. The Cat is certainly on song today. Can Morne Steyn sing?
Scarra stealing those balls like an absolute pro – McCaw, look and learn, boyo!!!!
Ref not happy with the Kwas, has gone upstairs
Sjoe.
That should be 6 blue elbowing the Griqua’s player in the head.
That was a bit of an anti-climax!
A yank on the field?
Gagiano on for Fourie – who’s heard of him?
Kwas have dug their own grave with all these penalties today. Spoils the game a bit
WP playing with a Yank, a Cannuck and a Greek on the field. They are the Man United of the CC.
Great steal, and leads to a WP penalty
@ Just For Kicks:
I remember him from the firdt Varsity Cup.
Ref blowing this game into boredom.
147 @ Loosehead:Cape Town, a truly international tourist destination. Go shark diving, climb Table Mountain, do a wine route, or play rugby for Western Province!
