Imagine a guy with the distribution skills of Maskara Nonu on center next to Frans and Jordaan in the Sharks’ line!

Moala just make them stronger, see the meters they make on attack, powerful runners, from 12 to 15

Oh noes, him and Fransie together – all you will see all day is double skips and kicks over the deadball line 😉

Tip Tackle by James Slipper, loosehead of the Reds.

Yellow Card and a penalty it is

@ grootblousmile:
Ek het jou ge-jinx, het ook Blues met 6

Blues putting Surfer Dude under immense pressure… and that is largely why the Reds backline is doing nothing today.

Blues forwards also all over the Reds forwards at the breakdowns

@ grootblousmile:
Ek sien TonyM loer nou en dan in hier, wonder hoekom praat die ou 8SAI-er nie saam nie? Sit seker op sy stoep en wyn vat en ginnegaap met Andre (JeanDiv se pa)….eishhh, lekket lewe daar in GooseBay

Eina, Reds. I did wonder what Richard Graham had done at the Force to earn the coaching job at the Reds.

Yip, Reds have really been ordinary this year!

Hy het al gisteraand laat begin loer… ek dink hy maak eenvoudig net nie die R-T toe as hy uitgaan nie.

grootblousmile on 2 May 2014 at 10:46 am

Reds 5m out… some good phases
56

grootblousmile on 2 May 2014 at 10:47 am

Blues penalty after 19 phases of the Reds…

Surfer Dude should have passed

As this is a shared platform you (we) are using now for Avatars I use that on various other forums (non rugby related) where it is very applicable 🙄

grootblousmile on 2 May 2014 at 10:48 am

Try Donnely, Blues, Bonus point!

Excellent running!
