27 @ Pietman:
Gaan goed man, wat lekker is noudat sy bedank het by die koerante is dat sy nie so opgestress en oorwerk is nie… heelwat meer vriendelik met my ook… hehehe
Sy het haar laaste dag gister in amptelike diens van die koerante gehad, maar hulle het haar al so 3 weke terug gesê sy hoef net in te gaan as hulle nie anders kan nie. Sy was gister na haar Pretoria kantoor vir ‘n social besoekie en ‘n drinkery… so sy is lekker relaxed.
Tryyyy Dixon for the Landers
Highlanders 13 / 7 Reds
Try Landers…. 🙂
Might have the right team today…….
@ Stormersboy:
Gisteraand lank gekuier saam met paar Saffas en oor Bellville rugby gesels.
Onthou jy nog vir (dr)Kobus Neethling, Bellville en WP-skrummie? Sakekonsultant en skrywer van verskeie boeke oor motivering ens.
Hy en Pierre Villet was my o/19 skrummies by Bellville destyds, in jou skoonpa en oom Ronnie se dae. Oom Butch Lochner en Freek Stander was ons afrigters.
Ek glo jou skoonpa sal hom onthou.
@ grootblousmile:
@31 Mooi man, hou dit so! n Vriendelike vrou is n aanwins….en skaars!
Obstruksie?
Try Reds… no obstruction run as Quade Cooper goes through
Try Liam Gill for the Reds
Landers jaag nou aan, hulle veelgeroemde voorspelers moet begin vinger trek.
Reds 14 / 13 Highlanders
Almost a Reds try again…
Just knocked and out too.
Back for a Reds penalty on the 5m line and Hore cops a Yellow too.
Emery, try saving tackle by the young All Black….
Sitter badly missed by Quade Cooper
Try by Jake Schatz under the sticks
Reds 21 / 13 Highlanders
Nonu is deesdae stil en kakkerig, nie waar nie!
Faaaark, 3rd try already….c’mon Landers, wake up boys.
Red halfbacks controlling the game at the mo, Genia is pure magic.
Well I spoke too soon. Landers not doing it again this week so far. If they lose today will never pick them again.
Just hope they stay this kak until after the Sharks have played them. Watch they will up their game by then. Wish my Sharks travelled early. Would have had a weak Landers and Reds team to play. They both I think as the season goes will get better.
49 @ Pietman:
Howzit Piet, How you doing boet?
@ Pietman:
Lekker man, is jy terug innie Kaap?
Everybody, including myself expected more from the Bucketheads this season, thinking they had signed good players
Anthony Faingaa gets a final warning, penalty Landers… a long one missed right by Slade
48 @ grootblousmile:
Like I said above, every team he plays in are terrible. Is it him? I am not sure about that he is way better when playing for the ABs. Plum wanted to get him in 2010 and he turned Plum down as he wanted to carry on playing for the ABs. He would have done well at the Sharks at the time though. With the style we play. Now just pleased he never came as we our great centres. In 2010 our centres was our weak link, not any longer. We have depth there now and class players.
Another Landers penalty.
Colin Slade is amper so kakkas as Louis Fouché, kan ookie eers so vêr skop soos Louis nie.
@ Stormersboy:
Nee, nog hier, 15 Mei innie Kaap.
Praat netnou weer, moet gou n ontbytjie vat, vrou gil daar in die eetkamer….
Landers 5m away… and they knock!
54 @ Puma:
Everything happens for a reason…. hehehe
Landers penalty just before Lemoenetyd
Pity my Lemoensap is finished… think Handbriekie must brew me some Rooibos tea!
Reds 21 / 16 Highlanders
