220 @ superBul:
Only one loser in this wholr sordid affair, and that’s Rugby, and the blame can be laid firmly at the feet of the SARU Exco’.
@ grootblousmile:
Ek voel flippin goed….volgende Vrydag nog n keer, maak dit n dubbel ek se!
Jammer vir Schalk Ferreira en Vleis en die ouens, voel vere vir die Watsons, meng jou met die semels….en kry vir jou ou pel.
Volgende keer, speel uit, regverdig, moenie politiek bytrek nie, al wat ek se.
Moer hulle Leeuens, weer n keer!!!
Sjoe.
So the quesion is, how high a standard is the S15, that the team that came last, but didn’t do that baly gets klapped by the Vodacom Cup winners?
Congrats to the Lions on taking the 1st game, was a good encounter
But seriously Mr, Pyper, use the TMO on all tries, just for in case in infamous assistant referees could not see a clear forward pass
This should be the standard for all games on this level.
@ Scrumdown:
^^ This is so very true and so fukkin sad
