One of the fans rowed 100 miles from the town Rugby to London in a Victorian bath for charity, The Matt Hampson Foundation who help young sports people that get seriously injured in their sport, great stuff Rob Knapp and the charity
Cheetahs 5m out again…..
@ Puma:
@118 Van Zyl is in the squad.
Leicester 3/0 Northampton 5 mins Toby Flood penalty
Flood slotted the penalty from 33m out straight in front of posts
Try again for Sadie…
That’s better!
STAAAAAAT!!!
Damwal breek.
Leicester 8/0 Northampton 8th minute converted try
123 @ Pietman:
Okay thought he was left out. Think there is Vermaak and Hougaard there. Van Zyl way way better than Hougaard and right behind Vermaak right now. Then again Pienaar will be 1st choice I think. It should be Vermaak then Van Zyl.
Cheetahs 27 / 15 Southern Kings
Cheetahs opening it up now.
Leicesters Niall Morris scored in right hand corner and Flood converted, going to be tough for Northampton
130 @ Puma:
No, you are right, Piet van Zyl is NOT in the training squad!
Score should have read Leicester 10/0 of course
@ Puma:
Yip, Van Zyl and Reinach the boys for the next WC.
22 Minutes to go… the Staat has 3 tries, they need only 1 more….
@ grootblousmile:
Ooops, sorry then manne!
Trevor Nyakane on for Lourens Adriaanse
Sarel Pretorius also on
Penalty Staat, hands in on the ground, off their feet
Not going for posts, Staat wants the bonus point!
Willie le Roux gets the bonus point try… good run by Sadie!
Leicester 10/5 Northampton 15 mins try with conversion still to come
Cheetahs 34 / 15 Southern Kings
The difference is already 19….
17 Minutes to go.
Catrakilis subbed… Willie le Roux also subbed… looks injured
Sounds like Cheetahs are running away it
Stephan Myler scored Northamptons try in left corner but missed his attempt at converting it
Dink nie die Leeus gaan sukkel om hierdie Kings melkkoeie te klop nie. Al die SA spanne kan hul nou lekker melk vir 5 punte.
