Du Toit only 19!
I wonder what they feed those Du Toits down in the Boland, vaaljapie and bokkoms?

Andre Venter’s son plays hooker for OVS under-13s & played Craven Week U-13s against a SWD prop who weighs 116kg!

@ BrumbiesBoy:
U/13? Lieben hel, 16 kg!
He won’t last, like that 135kg tighthead at Paul Roos, one tackle from Nic Koster and he was gone…

Jakeball! In the corner, GO SHARKS!

But for some reason, very underrated, just needs to stay injury free for a season

Try Marcell Coetzee, Sharks
44

Good try Sharks forwards
It’s been the secret of their success this year, total forward domination

Sharks 10 / 0 Highlanders

Pietman on 19 July 2014 at 5:21 pm

Yes!
Straight according to the game plan, as Norty explained it in the Jakeball thread…to perfection.
47

Hondo on 19 July 2014 at 5:21 pm

No doubt Walsh is on the taking today
I’ll retire soon from the farce, well done JS!
48

nortierd on 19 July 2014 at 5:21 pm

Sithole, so close, just couldn’t get the pass away to JP
Great counter ruck Sharks

Pietman on 19 July 2014 at 5:22 pm

GO AGAIN SHARKS!
Finish them off…NOW!

Try Jannie, looked on the line
51

grootblousmile on 19 July 2014 at 5:25 pm

Try Doc Jannie?

TMO
52

nortierd on 19 July 2014 at 5:25 pm

May he propelled himself off the ground?
53

Pietman on 19 July 2014 at 5:25 pm

Yes Jannie!
54

grootblousmile on 19 July 2014 at 5:25 pm

No try, double movement ruled
55

Pietman on 19 July 2014 at 5:25 pm

O flok!
56

nortierd on 19 July 2014 at 5:26 pm

Fair call, he was on his knee and propelled himself
Very close, but no cigar
57

Ben on 19 July 2014 at 5:26 pm

Arme ou Jannie, eerste drie vir sy mamma in 130 wedstryde, en nou is dit nie eers ‘n driekie nie.
58

Pietman on 19 July 2014 at 5:27 pm

Phew! Saved brilliantly by Alberts!

Nothing untoward so for, Sharks just stronger than the Landers.
No influence from Walsh, if there was, he wouldn’t have referred the Jannie try

Nogal n stat en n half daai
Moeilik om te glo, neem aan as hy die laaste 30 minute, wanneer die opponente moeg is gespeel het, in plaas van net die 1ste 50 minute, sou hy al gescore het
