Pity that the ORC Griquas vs Steval Pumas game at 15:00 is not broadcast on TV… so this game will be our 1st on the Saturday, and then the biggie between the Vodacom Blue Bulls vs Xerox Golden Lions att 19:10.
Both teams are struggling for form….from a WP perspective it will be interesting to see whether du Preez and fetcher flank Cloete are good enough to play at this level….Notshe is probably playing in his best position at number 8 and will be one to watch.. i reckon the more experienced Sharks are favourites to win this one at home.. Joe P will be vital and if he is on song his tactical kicking could give the Sharks an advantage ..
Gooooo rugby!!!
Well done kwas, the Currie Cup busy being blown wide open this weekend.
@ MacroPolo:
Flok, that’s 0/2 for yours truly.
Kolbe the main man
Helllooooooooo
Sorry I’m late… was busy!
Sharks 3 / 0 WP
The odds of a penalty at the first scrum is real good these days.
Tryyyyyyyyyyy Senatla, WP!
WP 7 / 3 Sharks
Sharks slot another easy penalty.
WP 7 / 6 Sharks
Very kickable WP penalty…
WP 10 / 6 Sharks
Sharks lineout Free Kick
I am at Handbriekie’s Venue, from where I am handling the game via the Big screen… quite nice, I helped them to a nice Internet connection, beamed all the way via the town of Van der Bijl Park, wirelessly with 5Mhz Ubiquity equipment to Heidelberg, from there to Nigel, from Nigel to the Grain Silos at the little village of Eloff near Delmas… and from there the about 7km to the venue out here in the Sticks… and we have managed to keep the connection at a favourable 4 Meg line. There’s no real Cell Phone reception here, only 2 Bars on Edge, so 3G was out the question.
Sharks penalty, it will be another no-problem shot at goal.
WP 10 / 9 Sharks
Rasta, the Dwergie, certainly heavy on the whistle today… many penalties in the game.
This time a WP penalty on their own 22.
Nice turnover on the ground by WP, followed by a senseless Groom kick
Kolbe has to dot down, 22m Drop out by WP.
22m Drop in directly out… option to the Sharks, they choose the scrum on the 22m line.
Big WP scrum, Sharks get their ball at the scrum but under big pressure.
Try Esterhuizen, Sharks?
TMO
Looked good to me!
Try is good, no problem… awarded
Deserved try.
Sharks 14 / 10 Sharks
24 @ MacroPolo:

Big run by Jean-Luc du Preez… handing WP midgets off like “Miggies”
