    Die Rebels doen ‘n dewald, hoek toe.

    108: Ons VC span het gister die magtige Griffons in Welkom geklop, 49-10 ! 😉

    Tian Schoeman baie beter losskakel as Jantjes en veral Fouche.

    Yet another penalty, the loosehead collapsing the scrum…

    Tap and go, turned over… Chiefs get out of trouble

    Fern het juis n NZ girl uitgevat vir ete toe hy in NZ was, so tydens die uitbreek van die siekte.
    Hy het die steak bestel en die kelner het hom gevra ” wat about the mad cow?”
    Fern se toe vir die waiter ” she can order for herself”

    I don’t think it is so much hoping for the sharks to fail than it is to support the underdog and hoping they succeed.

    123 @ grootblousmile:
    Hmm. I see I had the Chiefs by 13, so the prats better get a runaway converted try.

  • 133

    Rebels pass out to touch…

  • 134

    Het nie gister hele Bulle game gekyk nie, ek hoor hul het in laaste 15 minute so iets soos 10 keer geknock, soos die Rebels hier. Wat het van die spelers se balvaardighede geword, te veel tyd in gym en te min touchies ?

    One last gasp hope for the Rebels, a scrum for them deep in their own territory… time is up on the clock

    Shhhh. Moenie te hard praat nie.

    As die Leeus eers dink hulle is in met n halve kans, dan hak hulle koppe uit!

    Geluk aan Chiefs, maar hul klokke gaan doodsklokke word sonder Cruden. Hy is darem terug na Junie toere ?

  • 140

    Hierdie week begin my Stormers hulle comeback…….o, hulle speel nie……volgende week begin my Stormers hulle comeback

    137 @ Scrumdown: Kan ons nie Visser, Fouche, Hattingh en Ross ruil vir Minnie, Kriel, Whiteley en Andries Coetzee nie ?

  • 142

    Right all. Time to go home, wash the golf clubs for tomorrow’s “adventure”, and see if the Captain has rocked up for the afternoon’s Footie.

    NO MORE WORK TODAY!

  • 143

    141 @ Ben:
    Ek si seker dat as die Leeus nie ‘n oordentlike borg kry in die naby toekoms sal dit nie nodig wees om hulle te ruil.

    Hull sal maar net almal Noord trek tot oorkant die magtige Jukskei Rivier.

    Behalwe natuurlik vir Minnie. Hy is mos ‘n Alberton boytjie so ek glo nie hy sal sommer aanskyf nie.

  • 144

    141 @ Ben:
    Maar julle het mos Hatting by ons kom steel in elkgeval.

    Hoe hom maar vir “incase”.

    Buitendien, ek is seker hy het al sy 30 stukkies silwer al klaar gespend.

    Ek verstaan. Ek wag al 12 jaar lank vir die Leeus se comeback. Nog net 3 jare van “herbou”, dan is ons reg!

    Lol, no Puma….those days are a memory of when we still knew how to play a bit.
    I’ve told you before, I’m not a Shark supporter, so I have no affinity towards them. If White and the Shark supporter’s mouths ( not all, but most if one talks to them and follow the Internet blogs like News24 and SA Rugbymag is anything to go by ) are already so big, heaven help the rest of us if they should ever manage to pox some decent silverware.

    147 @ nortierd:
    The problem with the majority of the Sharks “supporters”, is that by and large they are supporters only because of a long and successful marketing campaign by the Union.

    The majority of them don’t know the rules, the players, the tactics, or the history of Rugby Union.

    Now before Puma and co jump on their high horses and try to shoot me down, this is not aimed (for the most part) at the guys that blog here, but in general what I’ve stated here is fact.

    I don’t even engage the AVERAGE Sharks supporter that I come across. They’re just too ignorant and I couldn’t be bothered giving myself a few more grey hairs.

    IN FACT, most of them aren’t supporters, they’re merely fans.

    Having said that, I commend the Sharks Union on their long term marketing campaign.

    Since they were handed Currie Cup Premier division status in the late 1980’s (they could after all NEVER WIN IT BACK), they’ve grown from strength to strength and must be one of the most professionally run Rugby entities in the world today.

    @Scrumdown
    True, the Sharks have also shown that you can’t buy a SR title.
    This year they have everything going for them, a draw made in heaven, great players, fantastic coaching set up, so let’s see.
    If they don’t capatilize this year and win this thing, they never will
