Good morning all
******************
Grame, thank you for being a great test leader throughout your carreer, all honour bestowed on you today is rightfully deserved
GodBless
Morning morning!
Hope this will be a good one!!!
The company I work for have a box at the Wonderers and guess who DID NOT get a ticket – bastards
@ Gena_ZA:
That is criminal Gena!!!!
At least I have a Walka so can watch at work
Agreed, Googling local availability of C4 as we speak
Have a TV in the Global Service centre where I sit luckily and will take an extended lunch to watch some in the lapa at work as well
Batting at just over a run a over, tough going at present, just keep your wickets lads
First 4 woohoo, very tough going!
@ Gena_ZA:
Corporate I worked for only gave me one ticket to the box at an age group world cup final. Then I had a ticket from a supplier to SA vs NZ in that WC. And onther supplier gave me tickets to a match at the IPL.
going to esclate one major issue to all of them and get them all on a conference call, just for the heck of it
@ Gena_ZA:
Go for it!!!
As there is no sevens thread, the news from Wellington, NZ
The Blitzbokke lost the games against Samoa and Canada, but has beaten Wales. They go to the Cup quarters due to better points difference where they will play Kenya.
thanks, so not all lost yet in the 7’s
Wonder where is the rest on the regulars today?
Dr. Louis Luyt, voormalige Suid-Afrikaanse rugybaas en politikus, is Vrydag in die ouderdom van 80 dood.
Eyewitness News het op Twitter Luyt se afsterwe bevestig. Hy is glo vroeër in ‘n Durbanse hospital opgeneem. Die oorsaak van sy dood is nog nie in die stadium bekend nie. Luyt het vir homself naam gemaak as ‘n jong rugbyster. Hy het daarna die maatskappye Triomf Kunsmis en Luyt Brouerye gestig en het in 1984 beheer oor die Ellispark-stadion in Johannesburg namens die TRVU (Transvaalse Rugby Voetbalunie) oorgeneem. Luyt het veral bekendheid verwerf vir sy betrokkenheid by die Inligtingskandaal van 1978 en sy beweerde finansiering om The Citizen-koerant namens die regering op die been te bring.
Former South African rugby boss Louis Luyt has died at the age of 80, it was confirmed on Friday.
Volksblad’s sport editor, Hendrik Cronjé, confirmed the news to Sport24 on Friday. The cause of Luyt’s death is still unknown but he had been suffering with heart ailments for some time.
Luyt was the president of the then South African Rugby football Union (SARFU) when the Springboks won the Rugby World Cup in 1995.
Luyt quit as SARFU boss in 1998 after being accused of racism and financial mismanagement.
He was also president of the Transvaal Rugby Union (Golden Lions) in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
South Africa 84/2 (28.6 ov)
Pakistan
South Africa won the toss and elected to bat
Day 1 – Session 2
@ superBul:
Rus in Vrede Oom Louis, dit moes jou erg gegrief het om die Leeus se val te sien.
Jou tyd in die Leeu-kamp was inderdaad die goue era.
Golden Lions Was just that under Louis Luyt
Middag aan U ook
Very sad about Oom Louis, het ackomplished a lot in his life and meant a lot to rugby in his days, may he Rest in Peace.
*********
Kalls seems to be in an aggressive mood, goodie
Out of here again, will take laptop with , maybe i can follow the News this way.
Another great South African died today,
Dereck Joubert
Thank you all for your condolences. Keith Joubert was many things to many people, but he embraced life with a vigour that few have had. His fame was underplayed because he wanted it that way. He loved Val like no other. His art changed the way art is done in the wildlife arena, each decade stepping it up in a way that others could only follow. He raged against poaching and mediocrity of art or thought and against anyone who had a large ego and a deficient sense of humour. We was a warrior for Africa, its special cultures that colourful people and its wildlife.
We duelled intellectually and creatively almost daily, testing thoughts, ideas, films, paintings, ethics and more and more we shared a distaste for safari hunting and poaching, (much the same thing, one semi legal, one not) so anyone who still believes in hunting should exit my FB group. If I have relaxed my guard on hunting, saving big cats, rhino wars and the battle to keep African landscapes pristine and safe from bullets and bulldozers it will be re-energized, bolstered by knowing that I walk this path now with the ghost of my brother on one side and Beverly on the other.
Sup Mr Kickers
Rate rate steadily growing, 3,3 now and Kallis mainly to thank
He is batting at a rate of 77% and Amla also picking up the pace now at 63%
Really like the balance of this side, should do really well. Pity Biff went cheaply on his b’day.
@ Gena_ZA:Good, you? Yeah, as I wrote that, Kallis upped the rate considerably with those 2 X 4’s!!
Sad day in may respects with the passing away of legends but also a very proud day for Grame and South Africa
Hope our guys go on from here
P.S. and it’s FRIDAY
Well done King K, yet another fifty notched up
As I say that, Kallis goes to a mistimed pull shot. Great catch though
Found all the styles, fonts, etc. in the kitchen sink! daft place to put them, LOL
Bleh, Kalis has fallen
Right, time to do some work. Catch up a bit later. Go SA
Hellooooooooooooo
fcuk, Amla saw his Alma Mater as well
