Highlanders starting very strong… and also a very strong 1st scrum!
Lions scrum deep in their own 22…. 10m from their own line.
Highlanders scrum the Lions moertoe.
Nou wat nou?

Hellloooooooooooo
Was a better 2nd Lions scrum though… much better.
Highlanders seem to be rushing things with ball in hand and Lions battling to get hold of the pill.
Lander scrum penalty.
Packs seem quite evenly matched
Highlanders scrum the Lions shitless again… and earn a scrum penalty on the Lions 10m line… shot at goal for Lima Sopoaga!
Highlanders 3 / 0 Lions
Home team lead.
Almost a Landers try… after some great counter-attack from ripped ball.
Vark me what a counter attack.
Whitely’s work rate is amazing.
TMO??
Kriel jou doring.
5m scrum Lions?
Great defence.

Mr Kempies,
I now have a choice of 3 different Core i7 Notebooks here at my office for you…
1. Acer TravelMate P253-MG, with 4GB Ram, 750GB HDD and all the other mods & cons – Excellent condition – will sell it fully loaded for R 5 750.00;
2. Dell Latitude E6530, with 8GB Ram, 500GB HDD and all the mods & cons – Excellent condition – will sell it fully loaded for R 6 300.00;
3. Dell Latitude E6510, with 4GB Ram, 250GB HDD ect – Excellent condition – will sell it fully loaded for R 5 000.00.
Just a heads-up.
That other fellow has not phoned about the Notebook, mind you…
Any other takers, you are welcome to the options too.
morning everyone

Helloooooooooooooooo Asbakkie!
Lions seemingly finding some good rhythm now…
Lions lineout inside the Landers 22.
Landers penalty inside their own 22.
Staunch Landers defence!
Try Landers!
Matt Faddes!
Aaarg
Highlanders 10 / 0 Lions
14 @ grootblousmile:
Haven’t seem him since Monday so he may be in Mauritania.
Landers defence is excellent.
11 phases for 11 inches.
Lions need points or this could get ugly.
Landers steal ball on the ground… and get within 5m of the Lions line…
Landers attacks just way more penetrating than those of the Lions at present.
22 @ Scrumdown:
No problem… the Notebooks will sell like hot-cakes if I had to spread the word around.
Core i7 Notebooks one cannot find new (good ones anyway) for under R 14 000.00… all the way up into serious money for super big boykies.
Lions penalty… Elton Jantjies for goal!
Sails through… great kick!
Highlanders 10 / 3 Lions
Lions on the board with 7 to go in the half.
