Have you EVER seen a more kak female presenter?
Doff is not the word.

Pink ball time… again

Soft hands, and twinkle toes – are we watching rugby or ballet?

TUT’s decision to kick that last penalty for posts was dumb. they should have gone for the try. Kicking didn’t help at all

She’s got only 2 brain cells… one which makes her remember to breathe, and the other to hold and let the hair drier face in the right direction….
March 12th, 2012 at 18:35 SAST
I think TUT are going to rue that penalty decision
March 12th, 2012 at 18:36 SAST
81@ grootblousmile:She’s been so full of hot air today, I think the second brain cell has either died, or emigrated!

@ grootblousmile:Yup, you have to be careful what you say, in last nights 6N match, Brian Moore was being his usual useless commentating self. Someone tweeted something (I don’t know what), about his commentary, he saw it, and threatened legal action. there was a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, loads of apologies, etc before he backed off. But geez, he was awful last night.
March 12th, 2012 at 18:46 SAST
There are 2 grounds against any legal action for defamation…
Truth and In the public interest…
Game over
March 12th, 2012 at 18:47 SAST
Times up, Shimlas must be relieved at that one
March 12th, 2012 at 18:48 SAST
92@ grootblousmile:There was no interest – public or private with his commentary!!!
March 12th, 2012 at 18:49 SAST
