Hoe gaan dit vandag?
Ruled inconclusive, scrum 5, Blues ball
Nic White offside but penalty against Blues No 8, Saili
Moala in front of the kicker…. Brumbies penalty
cheetah @ 28
the corporate ladder, like the rugby logs, can be explained like this:
when the bosses (or those on top of the ladder) look down,
all they see are smiling faces
when the workers (or those at the bottom of the log) look up,
all the see are asses!!
Jesse Mogg going for goal in this terrible swirly wind and these conditions
Just right… missed
@ grootblousmile<Gaan goed met my dankie, en self. Kan nog beter as die Brumbies so vol hou en die Blues sink.

i’d rather be an ass than a smiling face, though!!
Defensive penalty Blues….
Stop-start game… but of course the weather is playing it’s part in it
38 @ Cheetah4eva:
Nee dit gaan goed die kant, bright and breezy!
Went to a nice Restaurant last night, took Handbriekie out for her birthday… also took Bonzaihandbriekie and her fiancee, Os. A good night was had by all.
Scrappy game then expected in those conditions.
@ Ashley:
Howzit Ash, How you doing? Have not seen you here for awhile now.
puma @ 44
no problems here, thanks pums
as i said earlier: we’re one day closer to getting rid of toetie coetzee, so the world’s all right!!
@ grootblousmile:
Family time is always time well spent. I hooked up with a school buddy in Roodepoort yesterday for a pub lunch, also time well spent. He is well placed in the JMPD, so a good contact to nurture
Not that I ever get fined mind lol
45 @ Ashley:
Your team has too many injuries as well boet. Much like my Sharks have and both teams are struggling this year.
A nice cup of filter coffee brewing… halftime will be good here in the Panne
@ Puma:
Howdy Puma, how is going?
pums @ 47
everyone has their fair share of injuries. yes it do play a part in your performance (obviously), but thats not the real reason. look at the cheetahs for example .. losing their top players to other unions season after season, but they stay competitive at least. this season they’re even better than that
Hooter has gone but the Brumbies get a penalty… shot at goal.
Ali Williams moaning with the ref.
Kick over!
Brumbies 14 / 0 Blues

42 @ grootblousmile:
While we at it. We had dinner with our best friends last night as well. Also time well spent…lol.
46 @ Cheetah4eva:
You still in this area… think you said Klerksdorp or something, a while ago.
Strong coffee time
52 @ Puma:
I thought WE were all your BEST FRIENDS…
@ Ashley:
Bud, injuries to the extent that the Sharks have suffered is an excuse in my opinion. It disrupts any continuity. Cheetahs have been lucky with injuries. They have had to make minimal changes to their team throughout. That said, something is vrot at the Sharks, the whole Kanko story, and players getting shifted out of position etc.
