Whitely is a tackling machine.
Hy het nie einde nie!
@ robzim:
There always are jockeys and horses flying around.
Big moves to ban the race for years already.
Bookies paying out again?
Mark Richards out COLD methinks.
Poor old Faf
Couldn’t have picked a bigger guy to bump him off
@ IAAS:
Faf made the kick.
Mark Richards was the chaser who took the smack.
59 @ robzim:Yup, watched the race, very exciting finish. Shutthedoor just tired up over the last 2 fences – AP, unfortunately now has to go on a couple of weeks, as he said would, if he didn’t win this one. Amazing to think he has one it only once in his long and illustrious career, but he did have a good win yesterday
oops Mark Richards
was asleep before he hit the ground
@ Scrumdown:
Yip, I am no expert but to me the race seems cruel….it’s not only the tumbles but some of those horses are pushed so hard they literally “overheat”. Seems Mike Tindall is also an owner.
Mnisi on for Richards.
Try Mvovo.
No substitute for speed.
one = won!
Sharks getting the upper hand here.
Lions need to get down to work.
Sharks are certainly making their supporters happy today. Just shows you what they can do when they play without all their overpaid “egos”

I’m with you 100% there Rob, haven’t watched that “race” for years.
Scrum penalty Lions.
The lottery continues.
Lions 5m out.
Pressing hard.
TRRRRRRYYYYYYYY.
Mnisi.
beautiful try
In the (in)famous words of GBS: “Lemoene”!
Are the Sharks’ senior players (not playing today) just spoiled brats?
The youngsters far hungrier IMO.
Richards seems to be ok but has been sent to hospital for tests to make sure.
2nd half started by Zelinga.
nice crowd in
