    @ grootblousmile:
    32 – You must have worked your magic, cause suddenly the arrows are back .. 😛

    @ grootblousmile:32 – Think you can. I live in a golf estate here and they have a service that does all the grounds. Not our home grounds we get our own service for that, but the golf course gets serviced everyday. We have two golf courses here so if they can get serviced I reckon a farm could get some help… 😛

    What a poor effort by Jakes team, i wished them a zero at the end.

    @ Puma:
    Hey Puma, long time no hear! Glad you enjoyed your trip.

    What about those Waratahs? Good result but a bit of a letdown of a match, I was expecting a real tussle.

    @ superBul:
    G’day SB. Now where would you have expected Old G to have been last night? At the game of course! I thought it might have been the Tahs’ last match for the season as I believed the Brumbies would come out on fire, with Giteau, AAC playing their last games for the franchise and possibly Beale, Baxter and others for the Tahs. I was pleased with the win, but the Tahs injury toll is extraordinary.

    It was a great night; lots of colour and excitement; what an occasion it is to go to a Superugby game these days. Loved it!

    @ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:
    Ooo yes, glad it turned out good for you. My dear Bulls just came up short. Both the Tahs and Bulls lost 6 games, so if one wants to find a place where the Bulls went wrong it can also be the bonuspoints. Even top of the log Reds lost 3, this year was tough, all teams outside the top 3 lost 5 games or more.

    Bull players ending their careers did wonderful things for us so although i am sad i am also gratefull, we had a great era.

    @ superBul:
    Hey SB, you can be enormously proud of your team. They had a slow start but man did they come back with a huge effort!! To only just miss out on the finals is a testament to their depth and abilities.

    Don’t worry, the Bulls will be back next year with renewed vigour.

    @ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:44 – Howzit OldG, How you doing mate? Hope well.

    Had a brilliant holiday, but also great to be back home.

    Well done on your Tahs getting to the play offs. Not the greatest game to watch, cause of Brumbies really. They just were awful. Tahs were far too good. I thought after Brumbies beating Reds we were in for a great game. Anyhow the end result counted and your team are through. Now both our teams head to kiwiland and have to play two great sides down there.

    All the best for Tahs against Blues. Sharks have Saders and once again Sharks have to travel. By the time this tourney ends Sharks will have travelled more than any other team…..hahaha. Not easy the travel, but we have to do it.

    Damn I hope we can beat Saders. Then we will be facing Reds in Brissie. Reds have been the best side in this tourney and deserve their top spot. Well done to them.
