    Julle kan bly wees dat die Sharks versterkings ingeroep het, so Berry is op die vlag in Durban vandag en nie op die fluitjie by Ellis Park nie, anders het julle ook soos die Blues en Reds julle gat gesien.

    Jip, die minibus wen as ek reg onthou, ek het oorgesit na die Friens omnibus op 127 Sony.
    Nog steeds beter as die skole rugby wat hulle vandag uitsaai

    A stunning display of integrity and honesty by NZ referees this morning left me speechless, flabbergasted!
    Remember that while you are watching Joubert and Peyper bending results this evening to SARU’s instructions!

    lol boet, you and me both … I cant pick my own team, when I do they lose, when I dont they win.

    they’re messing with me 😀

    OK, buckle down, shuffle up, the game is at hand shortly.

    Ek verstaan nie hoekom faf de klerk nie speel nie, hy is seker een van die “finds of the season”

  • 21

    Nortie, didnt see the game due to work, how did Kaino play? after catching the early game I think Messam has been poor this season (from the 2 or 5 games Ive seen)

    I think messam will lose the 6 spot for ABs, Kaino (since Juans injury) is the best 6 blindside out there imho

  • 22

    If the Bulls win here with a bonus point, they move into 5th spot till the NZ & Aussie sides play the extra Round on the weekend of 28 June!

  • 23

    The Bulls out on the field

    @18
    Lol
    Luckily I don’t have that problem.
    I had some hopes for my team in the beginning of the year, but after getting drubbed in their 1st game already, we knew it was a dismal year ahead, and so it has been.

  • 25

    Lions also now appearing on the pitch.

  • 26

    Game ON!

    Kick-Off by the Lions!

    Just do it, Bulls!

  • 27

    Afternoon all, just in time, I see

    They probably don’t want to try play a loose game against the Bulls and can’t afford a “loskop” player.

    Kaino played well, but you know Hanson can’t drop Messam, not after his Hollywood won you the game at EP last year.
