    Well done Pumas.
    Deserved winners.
    These guys are going to upset a few teams at home.

    As long as they moer the Kings six-love they have done their bit as far as I am considered….just to prove that merit still count in our game.

    Doesn’t even matter.
    It’s only Griekwas that will now be stuck playing relegation.
    Pumas have done enough to be safe, and Kings can lose every game by 100 points and are still safe, because they may not be relegated

    Next upset? Nortie crying in his beer tomorrow at Loftus, check! WP bound to have a bad game sooner or later…Loftus is just the venue for such occasion Happy

    Thinking more like the Kwas will beat the Staat.
    WP will have a bad game next week during their koppestamp practice. 😆

    @ grootblousmile:178
    Not all of us.
    Go check superbru.
    It always happens when a player has a milestone.
    At least for JB it was at his home area.

    Ja nee, charity vir almal behalwe die Pumas en Griekwas.
    Ten minste speel die Pumas vir alles wat hulle het, nie soos sekere charity cases nie.
    En spanne soos die Bulls wat kamstig nie gerelegeer mag word as hulle n swak jaar het nie, want hulle bring te veel geld in, stront man, daar skaars n handjie vol mense wat worry om op te daag by Loftus

    @ nortierd:
    Sleg man, om Loftus so blou en leeg te sien. Nie goed vir ons land se rugby in geheel nie, tyd dat daai klomp dikgatte by BBRU koers kry.
    Wonder wat dink Thys L, Burger G en daai ouens? Miskien moet GBS n slag sy familie bel en hoor…

  • 192

    190 @ nortierd:
    Was Stefan Watermeyer, ja!!

    Hy het goed gespeel, die Sharks aan flarde gehardloop verby Paul Jordaan, elke keer.

    Daai outjie, Jordaan, kannie verdedig om sy lewe te red nie.

    Moer vinnig, maar dis maar ook net dit.

    @ grootblousmile:
    Hy het n goeie game gehad, maar Specman ook.
    Kyk, die Pumas is moeilik, veral daar in Nelspruit, maar daar is groot fout daar in die Haai wereld.
    Dis nou die CC kampioene? Nee wat, hulle het nie regtig diepte nie, en die ouens wat net invlieg vir SR en dan weer tjaaila, bring niks vir die Unie nie. Wie bly oor om die jong manne touwys te maak?

    193 @ nortierd:
    Ek gun hulle, hulle kak… jammer om te sê!

    Wat my bekommer is dat my span so sleg is, vrot, vrot, vrot!

  • 195

    193 @ nortierd:
    Specman is blitsig… moet self ook net bietjie skerper word op verdediging.

    Hy is bietjie lig ook, baie ouens bounce hom af in die tackle…

    @ Pietman:
    Don’t worry Pietman apparently the WeePee fans will pitch up in huge numbers tomorrow so this could more than make up for the unhappy Blue Bulls ‘fans’ who don’t pitch up, lekker to get our coffers filled by the opposition supporters Happy-Grin good night all Zzzzzz

    196 @ Bullscot:
    Tomorrow we don’t mind at all donating our money, we know it’s not going into the Bull’s coffers 😆
    All money made between them and Province being donated towards Joost and Tinus Linee ALS funds

    196 @ Bullscot:
    The WP supporters are licking their lips to be able to bury the Blue Bulls… at Loftus.

    I would not be too surprised if there are more WP jerseys at Loftus than Blue Bulls jerseys tomorrow.

  • 199

    Frans Ludeke has now managed to drag the Bulls down to the levels he left the Lions at… and that is pretty damn farking low…

  • 201

    OK, goeie nag maters!

  • 202

    @ grootblousmile:
    Cheers, ook uit
    Sien more

  • 203

    bad luck sharks. The pumas played really dam n well

  • 204

    Well done Puma’s.

  • 205

    198 @ grootblousmile:
    Hi GBS, well we can still live in hope that our Blue Bulls put up a good performance and beat WP, quite a lot of youth in our backline and some speedsters in theirs so hopefully the forwards will deliver good quick ball for the backs to run with and you will see a good game, especially as conditions should be good for running rugby.

  • 206

    Puma’s were brilliant last night. Love the way they play. Simple. Take ball into contact to draw defenders, get it out quickly while defense trying to re-organise and send wide. Coaching staff doing great job.
    Let’s hope Bulls come to party this afternoon. They haven’t had a game yet where their play has gelled, new flyhalf (Blommetjies big loss, Potgieter not so big), JJ at center as our senior player also a concern. What has happened to Dewald Potgieter for captaincy? Province due for day off (I’m optimistic) and Bulls to win.

    Hi nortierd, ja seen that about the collaboration with the Rhino group, great stuff for a good cause. Am guessing though that the gate takings will be going to the charity and not everything that is earned at Loftus. So this means still a lot of money for the Blue Bulls from you lot for beers and boerewors rolls, would have said ice cream too but probably going to be too chilly for that, not to mention all the money you guys will be spending in the supporters gear shop, stocking up on Blue Bulls apparrel to wear when you think no one is looking, I can just see it now, lang toue WP mense by daai shop, just be patient you will get what you are looking for I let them know to bring in extra stock especially for you guys. Hope you spend the rest of the day wisely until you go to the stadium – go and get lots more of your WP okes to join you there Happy-Grin

    206 @ Best:
    Not seen young flyhalf Josh Stander yet, how do you rate his abilities? It will be William Small Smith and not JJ there today, sounds like some kind of rotation, so hopefully he will click quickly with Odendaal, another really young player. Dewald got injured not long after coming back for Super rugby, don’t know if he is still injured or whether he was only coming back for Super rugby.
