Go Landers. They have been a disappointment so far this season. Hope they get it right today though.
1 @ Loosehead:
Same here, so will miss this game.
2 @ grootblousmile:
Helloooooooooo back…. 🙂
How is your better half today gbs? Hope all is well.
Okay need to dash catch up later.
Is Graeme Smith out yet?:)
Friday evening 19h22 here in Nu Zolland. Time for a glass ice cold Sauvigon Blanc while watching the game. This should be a great contest.
Hello RTs, nice weekend for rugby over after the beautiful desert rain last night….one of nature’s most incredible and rare sights, rain and thunder storms over the desert.
May it bodes well for the Stormers vs Jake’s Ponies!
4 @ Puma:
Hello Oompie,
Handbriekie is fine today. She is much, much better. Thanks for asking and for the interest shown.
We had a good night’s rest as well… fark but I woke at 05:00 with my head busy again with all sorts of plans and ideas….
Tonight I’ll be taking a Sleeping Tablet, just to get my bloody head to switch off a bit, for a change! I’ve never been one to battle with a sleeping problem, so this is getting a bit tedious now at the moment.
Players out on the pitch…..
Game due to kick off in a few seconds
Game ON!
@ Pietman:
Pietman hoe gee jy my heimwee nou met daai reenweer in die woestyn. Is sowaar iets baie spesiaal. Het dit as kind paar keer op oupa se plaas in the kalahari beleef.
This Chiefs winger, Asaeli Tikoirotuma, is another bloody good wing…. these New Zealanders churn out the wings by the dozens…
Chiefs penalty, shot at goal
8 @ Pietman:
Hello Woestynbewonder…. Sultan Pietman!
Chiefs 3 / 0 Highlanders
12 @ McLook:
Hello Kalahari klong van Nieu Seeland!
Landers penalty, deep in the Chiefs 22… they’ll take a shot at goal
Sitter missed as it rebounds off the posts
Highlanders look focused. Slade just threw 3 point away.
Try Chiefs… Tim Nanai-Williams
TMO
Try awarded.
Nanai Williams try. Lengthy TV ref check but try allowed.
Chiefs 10 / 0 Highlanders
Landers penalty on their own 10m line, tap and go
10-0 with Highlanders being the playmakers so far. Opportunistic try always on with the pacific players in a team.
Now a penalty on the Chiefs 10m line for the Landers… this will be a shot at goal
Just missed to the right
Landers ALMOST through, last pass knocked…
Landers really squandering their chances
@ McLook:
Ja, dis lekker!
Dikwels daar in die Kalahari by die familie dit beleef, selfs in die 70-er jare die Molopo in vloed gesien by Ashkam, was ongelooflik om met my nefies in n kano en gepompte binneband in die woestyn rond te roei!
