145: goed, goed, die Kings is nie Cheeky se span nie, dit is …. Superbul se span ?
Force knock…. overs cadovers
Luck has looked kindly on the Kings. They started with their easiest game at home and then the Farce were reduced to 14 men at a crucial stage. But hats off to them they took their opportunity and played with passion and committment. Did better than many thought to win at least a game in the comp.
Half a minute left
So Kings is Kings vir die week, top of the log in SA, geluk !
Where is the 5 points Force? Bhahaha
GBS ek hoop nou nie die blerrie Kings maak my n dronklap nie, 6 pack up
