Mens kan sien die Tahs se intensiteit is baie beter die week, na verlede week se verloor.

Hoop die Bulls het ook so wakkergeskrik!

Reds / Force game in doubt… due to a massive cyclone… wow!

grootblousmile on 20 February 2015 at 11:00 am

Freegin hell we are lucky in SA, no monsoons, no cyclones and severely adverse weather conditions, no earthquakes to speak of, no vulcanic eruptions… just the run of the mill political bullshit… which we are used to in any case!

grootblousmile on 20 February 2015 at 11:04 am

Manufactured by Kurtley Beale with an excellent chipkick, retrieved and passed to Hoiles

Queensland seems to suffer regularly, if it is not a cyclone, it is floods or massive run-away fires….
