@ Bullscot:
I cant edit on your post, but i put up the clip for you
32 @ Sharks_forever:
Thanks mate not sure why it didn’t work from the link I put up, saw this just now and thought it so funny
31 @ Sharks_forever:
Doing good here man, as I said we have a nice covering of snow at the moment, its lekker cold and will probably be with us for a while
29 @ Sharks_forever:
Not sure why it is not coming up. Just type Gallo Images Sharks Training 2013 and it will come up on the net, then click on the 2013 Super Rugby sharks training. There are about 40 photos. All excellent. Go check it out.
30 @ Sharks_forever: Just type “private – Puma”, and then your message. None of us will see your message to him then.
29 @ Sharks_forever:
Yip was not expecting them to get game time.
34 @ Bullscot:

I don’t think Sharky has a problem with US reading it here, but rather the visitors from other sites reading here.
@ Bullscot:I worry about you, think it must be living in that desolate place you do!!!
@ Puma:Ahhhhhhhh, well. He should give it a go anyway.
40 @ Just For Kicks:
Howdy JFK hehe dont worry bout me I’m feel alright I feel alright I feel alright
@ Just For Kicks:
Hey JFK how’s it going with you all? Looks like you have had a slight dusting of snow or was it just a lot of frost? Maybe your luck is in for a good deal more in the coming days.
@ Bullscot:Hi Bully, whats the temp up there?
43 @ Bullscot:No snow yet – James is mighty pissed off. He’s planned all his days off from school, knowing that the bus won’t get through, but keeps having to put his plans on hold! We may get a dusting on Saturday, but not holding out!
@ Puma:
100%correct
@ Just For Kicks:

@ Sharks_forever:Have you tried it yet? Does it work?
45 @ Just For Kicks:
Ahh shame well hold thumbs you get a good lot soon, am sure the children would enjoy it. It was up to about -2 or -3 when got home this morning, at one point we had -8 last night. Its looking lovely just getting lighter now with snow cover all around and no wind, am looking forward to next few days off so we can play in the snow, although Friday could be nasty with wind as well
@ Bullscot:Enjoy the snow, and build a snowman for me! Rugby needs to start soon, I am getting serious cabin fever here!!!!
38 @ Puma:
Howzit Puma glad you enjoyed that clip too, made me smile and laugh as my son was gangnam style crazy for a while, was really good with all the moves and quite nice to see when his baby sister tried to copy him
51 @ Just For Kicks:

14@ Sharky,
Lol true that, it’s usually easy to predict that the Ceetahs will end 10th or thereabouts, but we have a few suprises lined up for this season, and the Sharkies will be the 1st team we can unleash our plans on. Be afraid! Be very, very afraid!
@ Cheetah4eva:
😆 boet, not crazy as the Cheetahs has always been my 2nd team, i want them to do well, Much with them though depends on injuries.
