@ grootblousmile:
Hey, doctors also need to earn a living!
Superb game from both sides so far. Really enjoying it. Pity for O’Conner missing 8 points. From here on give the kicks to Beale to take.
Go Oz!
Span wat die eerste toets wen, gaan die reeks wen.
I wonder if Jesse Mogg will get a call up now that Barnes went of injured? Think it is a shame that Mogg was not in the squad.
154 @ Puma:
Well, I suppose it’s either Jesse Mogg or Surfer Dude Cooper.
Fark, old John Robbie is looking old with his glasses on…
Stone White hair….
@ grootblousmile:
Smiles, I need your help with reformatting a Dell netbook that I got from a friend. There is no DVD drive…
Looking forward to a good second half
157 @ The_Young_Turk:
You’ll have to get an External DVD Drive (USB) or use a Windows Installation Memory stick (USB), but for you to make a Bootable USB Windows installation for a Memory stick is a bit beyond easy comprehension, so an External DVD Drive is the answer.
They are cheap, one can pick one up for less than R 320.00 in SA… so about 26 Euros I would guess.
2nd Half ON!
157 @ The_Young_Turk:I picked up one for about 10 Euro’s on Ebay, works perfectly
I don’t rate Bieber.
Wallabies really throwing the ball around now
Knock by Stephen Moore
Pat McCabe also injured… will there be Waalabie backs left when The Rugby Championship comes around?
Are the Aussies soft?
162: jy rate niemand buite Bloem nie ! 😉

Excellent
McCabe also stretchered off… and they have to uses a forwards sub in the backline
Another bad injury for the Aussies
Lions scrum penalty, against Robinson
Lions need to push home the advantage here
Lions will want to run at the Wallabies backline now… they do… and it’s a try for Cuthbert!
Brilliant!
Simply the best. Awesome stuff from Cuthbert
Jeeez, ordinary defence by the Wallabies
Die vleuels van die Noorde slaan weer toe.
Brilliant running from the Lions
Lions 20 / 12 Wallabies
I went for the Lions on superbru.
Wallabies penalty, almost straight in front… sticks it is
