    Lol this TMO

    Yellow Card it is…

    All the Blue Bulls need do is kick out

  • 183

    Is that seriously yellow cardable or worse than what kruger did?

    What a shocker of a display by the TMO

    World Rugby has highlighted this as an area to focus on and quite rightly so, lets hope there is consistency in dealing with it across all games though…

    What dit Kruger do?

  • 188

    Well, a win away from home at the Shark tank…

    Not a good match by any means

  • 189

    Did any of you bother to go read the RugbyIQ article?

    Uiters swak wedstryd van beide spanne. Sharks gaan nie verneder word in die semis nie, Bulle wel. Regtig dit was swak advertensie vir rugby.

    Daardie laaste lynstaan van Bulle. Laaste beweging van die game, gooi veilig op twee en maak die game dood.

    DUH ? wat doen Bulee gooi op 8 met Maku.

    Nee kyk, lief vir my span, maar as jy dom is moet jy sukkel, eish.

    Two tries since half time for Glasgow Warriors now 57/0 in their favour. Try was by substitute scrumhalf Ali Price who looked so promising the first time I saw him here a few years ago but has had some injuries and not kicked on from there yet.

  • 192

    191 @ Bullscot:
    Should have said latest try was by Ali Price.

  • 193

    WP can draw level with the Blue Bulls on the Log tomorrow, if they score 4 tries and beat the Steval Pumas at Newlands

  • 194

    Arno Botha is awarded Man Of The Match

  • 195

    WP moet met 35 wen teen Pumas, dan is hul 2de op die log. Maar hul speel nog Leeus.

    Bulle het Pumas en Kings oor.

    Enigste ligpunt vir Bulle is Arno se spel, die skrums en losskakel bly groot probleem.

  • 196

    193 @ grootblousmile:
    They should be able to do that . GO PUMAS! Happy-Grin

  • 197

    So wat gaan die Leeus doen ?

    More goed wen, dan kan niemand hul vang nie, en dan gooi hul die game teen die WP, stuur hul tweede span ?

  • 198

    196: nou wie ondersteun jy as die Bokke teen die Skotte speel ?

  • 199

    Turkey… check your Skype

    I will build tomorrow’s live Game Articles tonight… but 1st I need to help old Turkey in Italy!

    Dumb, stupid Sharks. Can’t even beat the Blue Bulls at home.

    Is April the same guy who played for Bellville/Durbanville in the Club Championship?

    Why not play him at fly half, where he excelled. Size will obviously count against him. Just ask the Japanese. Wink

    Oh, by the way, Bullies. Well done. Still 5 points ahead of us, I guess. Till tomorrow. Wink

    Heyneke just don’t know how to zip it, does he?

    “I’ve said to Handre this game is going to be won or lost by him,” coach Heyneke Meyer said as the Springboks prepare to pick up their campaign after that wholly unexpected defeat against Japan in their Pool B opener.

    “We all know he is probably the best attacking number 10 in the world. (Bwahahaha…) What he will bring to the attack with (scrumhalf) Fourie du Preez can be unbelievable (not WILL be…even the coach is doubtful). He is an unbelievable prospect* and will be one of the game’s true greats.

    The definition of “prospect” I got, is the folowing:
    “a probability* or chance for future success, esp as based on present work or aptitude”

    Let’s take it a step further. What is a “probability”?
    “the extent to which something is likely to happen or be the case.”

    So, it’s only “likely” to happen…not DEFINITELY. Which means, there’s also a likelihood that it won’t happen.

    That’s the guy that we build our rugby future on? A guy that is “likely” to become a “great”. The other side of the coin says, he is “likely” to become a total flop. Keep in mind that in the last 4 test matches that he started at FH (Ireland, Aus, NZ, Arg), we LOST ALL FOUR of them.

    Jan Serfontein was supposed to take “international rugby by storm” after he was named “world junior player of the year”. He struggles to make an impact on CC level now.

    When are we going to learn?

    @ Nama:
    Geez huge chips on your shoulders on a friday night 😆

  • 204

    @ MacroPolo:
    Why do you say that?

  • 205

    @ MacroPolo:
    Eerlikwaar, ek kan net nie meer Heyneke se kak hanteer nie. Hoe gouer hy gaan, hoe vokken beter.

    Pollard is nou sommer “probably the best attacking number 10 in the world.”

    Is die man bevok in sy vokken kop?

  • 206

    @ Nama:
    Jy weet mos by nou al die ou het nie n clue nie, gister was Pollard nie in die prentjie nie, toe wou hy 15 Duane Vermeulens he, vandag is dit Pollard wat die sleutel gaan hou.

    Eergister wou hy met n ou wat 6 knie operasie a gehad het oorlog toe gaan.

    Daar is nie pille vir dit wat hy het nie

  • 207

    In other news. I see that Jean De Villiers, Pat Lambie, Victor Matfield and Tendai Mtawarira have already been confirmed for the Barbarians to play against Argentina and Gloucester in November. They will be coached by the world cup winning coach, Michael Cheika. Wink

    @ Nama:
    As dit nie so hartseer was dat hy ons rugby so opgefok het nie sou dit snaaks gewees het.

    Net jammer dis die res van die wereld wat vir ons lag

  • 209

    @ nortie:
    “Daar is nie pille vir dit wat hy het nie:

    Jy’s reg. Daar is nie.

    Lyk my ek moet maar vir my pille kry omdat hy probleme het.

    Kan die man nie net vir een oomblik liewer niks se nie?

  • 210

    @ Nama:
    Dit help ook nie as hy niks se nie Nama, want dan rol hulle vir die bright sparks soos Laubser en Van Graan uit, en hulle praat net soveel kak soos hy.

    En as hulle nie beskikbaar is nie moet ons luister na die words of wisdom van spelers soos Flo, Schalk, Vic, Jean ens wat nie eers daar moet wees nie, let alone kak praat op n press conference.

    Nee wat, ons is stuffed, ons gaan moet aanhou lees wat die sleg moere te se het tot hulle op n vliegtuig moet klim.
