    I am so looking forward to the Bulls winning this game.

    Go Bulls!

    @ MacroBull:
    Dit is hoe dit nou klink in Haai Wereld 😆

  • 6

    i think we might as well play Morne Morkel at No.4, he will have more grunt.

  • 7

    I’m going to Loftus, will be going there a bit later, but I do not see a Bulls win on the cards, neither do I see a Lions win on the cards against the Stormers later.

    By the Way, Scrumdown will be your website captain for the Lions / Stormers game, whilst I finish off at Loftus.

    7 @ grootblousmile:
    So with you there it will make about 8512 Bulls supporters against the 26587 Sharks fans who will be there 😆
    Loftus is the new home away from home for the Sharks and Stormers

    Go Bulls. Otherwise it will be nightmare driving around Pretoria for the next month with all the tannies in a bad mood….

  • 10

    8 @ nortie:
    I think we’ll be lucky if we see a total of 15 000 supporters at Loftus… most of whom will be Sharks supporters, me thinks

  • 11

    I will be leaving for Pretoria at about 14:45… still have to go pick up BonzaiGBS, then head to Loftus, and want to be there about 45 minutes early.

    In golf.
    Its drive for show.
    Putt for dough.

    In rugby.
    Its, you have a good tight 5,
    or you are fu*k*d.

    I think perhaps, the Sharkies may have the advantage here.

    How things change.

    Bullies have a good backline………………………………………….

    Concerning Cricket:

    What a great privilege it is to be a Host,
    or Co-Host of this Event (the ICC CWC).
    The Whole Country gets behind the Home Team,
    and each and every Underdog.

    And we witness such feats as:
    Ireland beating the W Indies.
    AB de Villiers scintillating 162 off 66.
    Gales 215.

    And today:
    Starc 28 for 6 wickets.
    And Boult 27 for 5.

    But the true heroes of today were;
    Pat Cummins for Oz; Not as a bowler, but as a #11 batsman. 7 runs from 30 balls.

    And for NZ, Daniel Vettori, 10 overs for 41 runs, taking 2 wickets.

    It’s a Team game.

    Abs innings was amazing credit to the other guys. Even behardien. Ab hitting his chest with his helmet was powerful stuff.

    @ cane:
    Congrats with your Black Caps Caner, I am enjoying the way they play and deserve to be taken seriously as contenders for the trophy.
    Also, congrats on your Hurricanes…..they are looking very impressive, fantastic back line as always, but it seems as if Plum has had quite an influence on the forwards so far.

    Possibility that NZ might take the double this year….Cricket and Rugby World Cups in the same year.

    That would be quite a feat, but you never know, it might just be the Proteas and Boks doing the double 😆

    @ grootblousmile:
    Well GBS….I hope we don’t bliksem you ou’s too badly today…..but only because you’re my friend. 😉

  • 17

    What happened with Odwa’s twin boetie, has he left the Bulls?

  • 18

    @ nortie:
    Too true Naughtie.
    And thank you for your kind words.

    Sport ………………………………………….it is great entertainment…………………………………………. Because,
    the result or outcome is not yet written.

    I still think the Odds are with SA and OZ to take this thing Out.
    With NZ, (with some luck), also a contender.

    We will lose Home Town advantage come the business end of the Tournament.

    @ MacroBull:
    SA right in this Cup Macro.

    @ cane:
    Everyone needs a little luck, hopefully the final will be a bigger contest than last time. India are also contenders at this stage.

  • 21

    Anyone who gets into the top 8 (quarter-finals) has a chance.

    Windies
    India
    Pakistan
    Sri Lanka
    Australia
    New Zealand
    Seowf Affrika
    England

    I know some (England and Pakistan) are struggling and others (Bangladesh and Ireland) are looking good but come the end of the pool stage it is still possible, likely even that most of them will still qualify

    Hellloooooooooo from Loftus, waar dit rof is!

    Lots of Sharks supporters here.

  • 24

    @ grootblousmile:

    24 @ Pietman:
    I recon there is 18 000 to 20 000 people here for the game.

    Grand stand has lots of people
