Used to enjoy watching rugga at Ellis Park. Lekker atmosphere. At Loftus we used to somehow attract the naartjies, which wasn’t so lekker. Used to arrive home a pale orange colour. From the back of the peak cap down to the back of the knees.
Bad kick by the Lions scrummie… placing all his players inside the 10m diameter… Stormers penalty.
@ grootblousmile: I’m pleased. Yellow or orange? Mine’s a mixture of both.
Lions 16 / 15 Stormers
@ grootblousmile: Lions beter oppas
1 point game.
Faf de Klerk on now for the Lions.
@ grootblousmile: going to the wire is this one
Lions come bitterly close…
Then it’s a Lions penalty for offside… quick tap and try Faf de Klerk!
Quick tap brings results.
Lions 23 / 15 Stormers
Handbags between an Oily dog Kebble and a Mapoe…. hahaha
Penalty against Kebble!
Elstadt die Boef is on, and Mike Willemse is also on.
Now the Stormers put on some pace, but well defended on Zas!
Try Siya Kolisi… great stuff!
GREAT try Stormers.
1 point game again.
Lions 23 / 22 Stormers
16 Minutes to go in the game.
This is a good game, gents!
that was a fantastic try. One of the best. Handling skills. Oh la la. Bugger me.
Jeeeez, anything can happen in this game… absolutely freegin anything!
At last, 2 sides in South Africa that can play modern rugby. The rest take note. Makes for good rugby, makes for good viewing, and makes for potential winners.
110 @ grootblousmile:
Excellent Rugby.
@ grootblousmile:
Very good!
