@ grootblousmile:
Geluk ou maat , jou senuwees kort nou n kameeltjie.
Moet se Ausies het positief bly speel , nie die bal probeer doodmaak in daai laaste minute nie
126 @ Pietman:
Ons sal maar moet sien wat die final tally is….
128 @ superBul:
Hehehe
Ek trek hulle blou hier!
Yet another win for Australia against Wales, was close and looked to me like tried hard to let Wales get the win that has been eluding them for so long, even without Cooper for the last bit they couldn’t make it.
Ok, gedane sake het geen keer nie…
Dit was die laaste Toets van die jaar.
Maar, ons het darem nog die PE Sevens volgende week en dan die George Pro Sevens die week daarna.
Daarna sal ons moet doen met krieket en Europese rugby.
131 @ Bullscot:
Was excellent rugby… not a single scrum in the 1st half
@ grootblousmile:
Gisteraand se Toks en Tjops het hulle die nuwe Blou Bul trui bespreek. Barend van Graan was ook daar, het jy gekyk?
134 @ superBul:
Nee, nie gesien nie, wat sê hulle toe?
1 – grootblousmile 40.75
2 – Heineken 40.08
3 ▲4 Timothy 39.25
Lykmy ek wen toe Bru met ‘n balhaar!
@ grootblousmile:
Barend erken daar is heelwat teenstand.
Meeste ouens daar het heel happy gewees.
Twee ouens het elk een van die truie aangehad, nee wat die een is ver better as die pienk gedoente.
My mening van Barend//// Hy lyk wragtie nie vir my die skerpste baas wat ons al gehad het nie.
Wel done to Heineken and Timothy, for 2nd and 3rd!
138 @ superBul:
Barend is al lank in die tuig…
@ grootblousmile:
#133 sounds like I missed most of a good one, seems amazing wonder when last if ever there has been a half without any scrums, that would have suited Australia
141 @ Bullscot:
1st time ever that I saw a game which had it’s first scrum on the 46 minute mark!
@ grootblousmile:
Having not seen it sounds bizzare to think there was not a single knock on forward pass skew lineout throw ruck that went dead and whatever else you would get a scrum for will be good to find out if this has happened before at international level, do you think the ref maybe tried too hard to let the game flow and maybe let a few things go or was it genuinely an error free as far as scrums period?
Good night all will catch up again whenever some rugby news trickles through.
143 @ Bullscot:
There were knocks & stuff, but advantage was played very well by the ref
144 @ superBul:
Nag BlommieBul… geniet dit
@ Bullscot:
Maybe the pitches made them weary to award scrums.
@ grootblousmile:
Hey well done on your Bru performance, your luck has no bounds 🙂 only kidding well done ou pel, have a nice rest tomorrow cheers vir eers
148 @ Bullscot:
Thanks… was no luck, I am a “kenner”… hehehe
Will rest a bit tomorrow, get up late….
OK, good night, sleep tight!
