@ grootblousmile:
At Loftus maybe…
@ Pietman:
Indeed…
Wales have to score points soon or it’s all over for them…
Wales now 5m out…can they do something.
No, Ireland penalty…
Hope Wales get at least 12 points
Come on chaps, let’s drive this thread over 300, during this game!
Wales penalty, just outside their own 22.
@ nortierd:
Why 12 points???
@ Puma:
The fewer Sharks supporters around, the better for all of us. That’s my point and I’m sticking to it….

Actually Rye will be here as well.
You know, I thought the Voldy okes knew how to speed blog, seems I was wrong!
Wales doesn’t look like a team with 9 British and Irish Lions in it…
Wales inside the Ireland 22 again, can they do something this time… no a knock by Warburton.
Kom nou Ierland… Gooi mielies… Remember that saying???
you don’t make mistakes in the red zone – no wonder Wales have nought
@ Gumboots:
I went for Ireland by 4
164 @ Gumboots:
One I often used and still frequently use here.
I cannot see Wales coming back from this point… Ireland look the hungrier team… Brian said his team would show Gatland a thing or two…
@ IAAS:
If I remember correctly, Rye’s nic here is Grumpy
Wales scrum penalty, on about the 22, right in front.
150 @ grootblousmile:
For sure, I would have as well…hahaha
Wales first opportunity for points.
@ grootblousmile:
I remember from your days in exile…
Ireland 16 / 3 Wales
160 @ IAAS:
hahaha. Well for now it seems it is only me. Rye does blog here from time to time under the nic Grumpy. Hope he joins me here as another Sharkie for Super Rugby.
Raining now at Aviva Stadium…
@ nortierd:
Why you so conservative… Go big or go home… Remember next time when the Stormers play the Sharks…
174 @ grootblousmile:
Why did you make me join 6 Nations bru ?
Look how rubbish I am from the start and I have a lot of catching up to do as I only joined today… 
175 @ Puma:
Sharky_For_Never blogs here too… was here in the week, or on the weekend.
Snoek (Stinkvis) was here too in the week.
@ Puma:
Hi Puma, how are you?
Is Fransie still such a fat pie eating champion, and will Lambie also lose his mojo now that he got married, just like Fransie?
