Tryyyyyyy Canes!
TJ Perenara!
Hurricanes 17 / 3 Crusaders
Kick-off directly out by Colin Slade, scrum middle spot
I can’t see the Saders in their current form coming back in this game.
The Canes is not even a good side this year either, they even managed to lose to the Stormers ( how embarked sing is that? )

Embarrassing not what spell check said
Good news this game, all the experts predicted a Crusader win, the same experts also predicted a Shark win
35 @ nortierd:
“Spellcheck” certainly can’t spell!
Try Johnny McNicholl, Saders… converted.
Hurricanes 17 / 10 Crusaders
Kieran Read off, injured
Just back from a nonsense phone call and saw the score…vaark me McGyver, my Bru seems to be off to a real bad start…oh wait! Score Saders! Great play by Ellis, that’s more like it.

So, you have a “Powderpuff” team… much like your Stormers… hehehe
NorTIER’s Powderpuffs!!
Conrad Smith is just just a pure delight to watch, always creating opportunities for players on his outside.
It’s crazy to risk Jean de Villiers for a mere Vodacom Super Rugby fixture, but then sanity has rarely factored into the Stormers’ player management, writes JON CARDINELLI.
De Villiers told reporters on Wednesday that he is carrying a shoulder injury, and that several other Stormers players are battling niggles. The Stormers captain said that the players would have to fight through the pain this Saturday for the sake of a team that desperately needs a win after three consecutive defeats.
Dit is ‘n sirkus.

Folau is ook uit
Only 1 New Zealand side doing well in Super Rugby 2014, so far…. and that’s what worries me, the Bulls are playing them tomorrow!
46 @ nortierd:
Hahaha, Porcelein Poodle…. hahahaha
Try No 2 for Johnny McNicholl, Saders
@
GBS
I might see a money making opportunity here.
If someone really doesn’t like a player, for a small fee I will select the player in my fantasy side and voila, in sy moer en besering guaranteed.
Hurricanes 17 / 15 Crusaders

Bwahahaha
Kies 13 Chiefs spelers, seblief… voor more!
@ MacroBull:
@45 Time for Jean to take time out and admire the view from his front porch at De Kelders, Gansbaai…it does wonders, especially with a cold Chardonay and some fresh lobster in support!
Scrums bly maar n fokkop, my favorite pet hate in rugby.
Saders penalty, right in front… over
Crusaders 18 / 17 Hurricanes
