60 @ Loosehead:
What do you want from a match Loskoppie?
Lions penalty… shot at goal
Jantjies misses again
JJE must be carded for that.
Eina…. Blommetjies landed on Mapoe’s knee with his back…..
Dangerous tackle?
61 @ grootblouBokJan: sex, drugs and no Morne Steyn.
JJ very lucky, but rugby wins, good.
76 @ Loosehead:
OK, play with yourself, dop in hand…. and watch the games….. hehehe
Proteas consolidating now. 52/3 after 7.4 overs
Louis Fouché goes for a monster penalty attempt at goal…. 60 Plus m
Well short
69 @ grootblouBokJan:What a come back – game, set and ………
72 @ Just For Kicks:
Happiness?
Blue Bulls penalty on the middle spot
Bulls kry nie lekker momentum nie. Lyk nie of hulle genoeg grunt voorlangs het nie.
Missed left…. wonky kick
Hell, I feel for the Lions. It must be like working for a large corporation and being told that 50% of the staff are going to be made redundant (happened to me once), you lose interest in the work, but are desperate to keep the job, because you need the salary for the house, family, car, etc. And through it all, no one tells you a thing.
Don’t mind me. I am just very negative after HM’s Bok performance today.
73 @ grootblouBokJan:Eish, those brain cells working overtime today, hehehe!
Try Deon Helberg, left corner
Damn, Helberg scores and the young girls and their mothers go crazy!
Golden Lions 10 / 8 Blue Bulls
Lemoenetyd
Lions step up just before half time. Not bad. Clayton Blommetjies having a much better game than last week, unfortunately Fouche just doesn’t look the part.
78 @ Loosehead:I’m with you there – just trying to put a brave face on for GBS’ birthday party!
SA 70/3 after 10.3 overs
83 @ Just For Kicks:
Would like to see what Lionel Cronje’s form is like….
84 @ Just For Kicks:
Don’t mind me… I’m just a glass half full guy, not a glass half empty guy
87 @ grootblouBokJan:Yup, but it’s so difficult to fix a broken glass – it just keeps on leaking – comes a time when it needs replacing!
#87 Gbs, I’m quite a slow drinker myself….
@ Just For Kicks:And then we all become full glass kind of guys!!!!!!
