Eish !!! Keep them out !!!
Hurricane’s musn’t go and spoil the support. I picked them to win, but I didn’t say they could get a BP. Need to keep them below the Cheetahs on the log, just in case we somehow, inconceivabily lose to the Nulle!!
Final Score: Hurricanes 34 / 28 Western Force
Die ref het my nou uit Bru punte gerob, daar was vele strafskoppe in die laaste 2 minute maar hy het sy fluitjie verloor
@ Blouste:
daarvoor is daar medisyne
Jammer die Canes kon nie nog ‘n strafskoppie kry nie.
Bugger, well at least they can’t overtake the Cheetahs on the log! Phew thanks for a win ratio technicality lol
Nevermind, Cheetahs will have to man up, and smash the Bulls back all day in the tackle, and steal plenty ball, cos I don’t know if they will get much ball from lineouts!
@ Cheetah4eva:
Dan het julle nou probleme …he he he
Ek hoop net ons scrummie doen sy ding…
Dan is ek quite gemaklik met die res…
Nou waar het almal nou heen verdwyn ?
Wel, ek het my eerste pick reg, het gedink die ‘Canes agterspelers gaan te veel wees vir die Force! Nee wat, ek dink die Cheetahs se tackling, is baie baie beter. Ek dink dit gaan ‘n riller wees. Die Bulle raak gewoonlik biki nukkerig, as die Cheetahs nie terugstaan vir die fisiese spel nie, en daar gaan heelwat skop geleentheid wees vir Generaal Ebersohn!
Gallooooooooo !?!?!?!?!?!!?
@ Cheetah4eva:
Hou dop…
More aand vou die jonge held Ebersohn met sy mikke pale toe … 😉
@ Blouste! Net toe jou begin like! Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! More vra Steyn of hy ook by okk louis Koen, kan klas loop lol
@ Cheetah4eva:
Nee wat boeta, watch maar…
More is sy dip, eish, dit gaan net ‘n te groot toets vir hom wees.
Die mannetjie het tien teen een klaar die bewerasies en slapeloosheid omdat hy teen die magtige BLOUMASJIEN te staan gaan kom 😉
Ha ha, nou goed, let the games begin! Alles is reg, as die Cheetah hol!!
Manne, ek groet vir eers.
Werk roep… Midrand roep…
Ja boet. Gaan tough wees !!!
Alles in die kol ,die Cheetahs se … 🙂
@ grootblousmile:
Eerder nou as 4 uur !!!
Gmffff! Onbeskof! Nou net galoer, hoplik kan die leeutjies, die Highlanders onbekant vang, en as die Cheetahs besef, dat hulle dan die playoffs kan maak, sal hulle vuur en vlam wees!
Pasop nulle, hier kom ‘n deng!
Hel maar dis sad as ‘n ou se hopes op die Leeus moet wees om te wen … he he he
Sien julle more Cheaters !!!
Just for GBS
A Brakpan girl goes to Home Affairs to register for child benefits.
“How many children?” asks the assessor?
“Ten” replies the Brakpan girl,
“Ten?” exclaims the Home Affairs worker.
“What are their names?”
“Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie, Kosie and Kosie ”
“Doesn’t that get confusing?”
“Naah…” says the Brakpan girl. “It’s great because if they are out playing in the street I just have to shout Kosie, YOUR SUPPER’S READY or Kosie GO TO BED NOW and they all do it…”
“What if you want to speak to one individually?” says the perturbed Home Affairs worker.
“That’s easy,” says the Brakpan girl… “I just use their surnames”
How do you know you’re staying in a Brakpan Motel?
When you call the front desk and say, I gotta leak in my sink, and the clerk replies: ‘Go ahead’.
Did you hear that they have raised the minimum drinking age in Brakpan to 32?
It seems they want to keep alcohol out of the high schools.
Two reasons why it’s so hard to solve a Brakpan murder:
1. The DNA is all the same
2. There are no dental records
Who invented the toothbrush?
A Brakpanner (If it had been invented by anyone else, it would have been called a teethbrush)
A new Brakpan law was just recently passed…
When a couple gets divorced, they are STILL cousins.
Did you hear that the Brakpan Mayor’s mansion burned down?
‘Ja, almost took out the whole trailer park. The library was a total loss too. Both books went poof . . .. up in flames
and the Mayor hadn’t even finished coloring one of them!’
Brakpan Pick-up lines:
1. “Your pretty eyes is laaik spanners… Evrie taaim I looks at you, my nuts taaiten”
2. ” Jou Pa se tollie moes seker ‘n chillie gewees het, want jy’s hot!!”
What do you call a woman wearing a white tracksuit in Brakpan on a Saturday afternoon?

Here’s another few about Brakpan…
What has 3 teeth and 40 legs?
The front row at a Bless Bridges concert in Brakpan!
Come to think on it, Brakpan does not even have a Motel…. must have been one of the Hotels here, they are seriously rippin!
You don’t go to the bar here for a drink, you go for the fighting, the drinks are just for the thirst between rounds and whilst the Police take some of your mates away.
You know how these okes in Brakpan “tune” a car?
“Hey Ford, ek sê, jy moet lekker wees!”
Brakpan is the only town I know where mullet hairstyles run in 4 generations at the same time… Oupa Outoppie (Oupagrootjie), die Outoppie (Oupa), die Toppie (Pa) PLUS the kids (both boys and girls).
Brakpanners is so arm, die kinders beny die gelukkiges in die weeshuis!
Brakpan is so poor, the Pawnshops pawn their stuff out!
Brakpan is so scaly, the Rottweilers walk around in pairs, for protection!
…. Ok, before Handbriekie finds out and donners me, I better stop about Brakkenjanpan…. just now my dinners for the next week will be in the dog in stead of in the microwave….
Oh, and by the way, poep stinks everywhere… not only in Brakpan!
I love Brakpan, it has been kind to me and has been the 10 best years in my life… despite it’s warts and some funny folk… difference is in other places the funny folk live in a certain neighbourhood, here they live between the decent folk… the heritage of a dying mining community!
@ grootblousmile:
Hello, I have been away for a week, what have I missed?
Got to do my superBru now……Bit nervous, when you are near the top there is only one way to go!! 😉
