So he wont be around then for selection for the Boks? How long is he going for?
stormers @ 92
not a big loss that. miskien kan ons ñ kollekte hou en hom betaal om vroeër te gaan!!
Penemara my motm.
OK, so my Bru at least very close on this one!
Damn it really wanted to go for Canes but thought Landers JUST might win their first one today. Super Bru for me this year and last is a disaster…
Landers just not the team we all thought they might be.
Brad Thorne praat maar baie ‘Bakkiesagtig’…
101 @ Puma:
I see he has signed with the Kobelco Steelers
107 @ grootblousmile:
How long is he going for? Must mean no selection this year for the Boks. Just like what happened to Kanko last year he had to head off and play his contract out there. They make a lot of money doing that though and would rather some of our players go for 6 months make a lot and come back here to play the next year in SR and for Boks. That is if he is going for 6 months only like many do if they go to Japan.
There is an article up on Bekker.
