268 @ Just For Kicks:
No problems here… just hiding from putting up another 3 light fittings at present, whilst doing some admin.
Have to get in the Blik Met Wiele just now, need to go put some juice in it and do a run to Benoni.
@ grootblousmile:Actually, just decided to go for a pub lunch – yes, Loosehead, if you are listening, with a good pint of the local best! Will send pics later.
272 @ Just For Kicks:
You trying to make us jealous? .. lol. Enjoy bud, it sounds great. We sweltering here in the heat.
OK folks, excuse me for a while… errands to do
Don’t think they can give that out.
the one that was out we decided not to use the referral
🙄 😆
276 @ Sharks_forever:
Thought they could not give it, not sure if his bat touched the ball. Well just looked when they showed the hot spot and thought it was a tough one to give out. Then came to my study so not sure what they showed after.
276 @ Sharks_forever:
When are you allowed from ‘Big Boss Rudi’ ..
to put up the rest of the Sharks squad here? Looking forward to discussing our backs and centres.
Sharks centres have to be like our Loosies one of the best in our conference. Actually thinking about it Bulls and Stormers have top class centres as well. Cheetahs not bad either.
Just like the sound of these names in my team: Jordaan, Whitehead and Fransie. All of them top class. Whitehead played some terrific rugby last year and teamed up very well with Jordaan.
NZ 27/1
@ Puma:
😆 Pooms, I think he will prolly let the Flyhalves articles be put up tomorrow
He is wanting to stretch the articles until end Jan I think
KeeeeeWeeee’s now 54/2, our bowling a bit wayward now
Dean Elgar now dropping easy catches, seriously proving he is not up to test standards
His batting was scratchy at best
2 dropped catches in 2 overs
Petersen also dropping one in Gully
Now Kallis puts one down WTF
Atlast Pietersen breaks through
Kiwi’s now 118-3
281 @ Sharks_forever:
Tjarkie, you guys can put up the Flyhalves Articles today, I will do the Bulls & Southern Kings ones tonight and also place them on.
Then next week, Tuesday the Centres and next Thursday the Back Three.
@ grootblousmile:
Ok Will do bro, will put it up after the cricket, let people blog here for now
@ grootblousmile:
You can be glad you were out, our fielding was shocking, 3 dropped catches within 3 overs, Steyn was fuming, 2 were off his bowling
288 @ Sharks_forever:
Yeah, do so.
Damn, have just returned from my rounds and I see New Zealand have piled up some runs, hey!
@ grootblousmile:
Some good shots from them but also a lot of luck,it should have been 6 wickets down at least
Brownlie (or is it Brown-Eye) goes to his Half Ton… showing us a Brown-Eye of note.
We need to get Brownlie’s wicket soon… then Flynn… then it’s all tails for NZ
@ grootblousmile:
Browneye has been very lucky
I guess there’s life in this game yet…. will definately (or should) go to a third day… and if they wipe out the deficit the Blomme might have to bat again too.
We can’t seem to plant the knockout shot…. when needed, to totally humiliate them.
Hope we get 2 more wickets before close of play!
Fark, our bowlers seem to be just going through the motions now.
Come on Blomme… otherwise I’m goint to go do some Light Fittings…. hehehe
300 Not Out… for Rugby-Talk!
