@ Puma:
A terrible summer here, we have nearly been washed away, so we are going to escape to the sun… Sicily !!
Can’t wait.

Well, looks like the Chiefs ‘Saders game on Friday is now a bit more important than it was yesterday.

Sjoe, dit was close,ek het net die laaste 10 minute gesien.
Amper het DurbanBulle die jackpot gevat, as daai laaste skop oor was.

90@ grootblousmile:
This could mean Bulls could have a home quarter? Bulls right back in it for sure now. If Bulls had to travel to NZ to play Saders in the quarter then doubt they would make it.
Saying that Bulls still have to beat my Sharks and they not gonna …
Even if my Sharks are out of the running now these derby games are like tests. Damn this tourney is too long. We should be concentrating on the RC and instead we are blikseming each other to a pulp instead. Hope they bring back the old format that worked well.
June 30th, 2012 at 11:17 SAST
Right, stuff to do….
Enjoy your rugby.

106 @ Puma:
I like the fact when sides have their own destiny in their own hands.
Bulls have to overcome the Cheetahs first, but whichever way, the Sharks / Bulls game will be a monster of a game.

104@ bdb:
After the next game think Brumbies will go back to 3 and Reds will drop to 7th.

Hello Pieta!
Hoe gaan dit met julle tweetjies?

109 @ Puma:
Brumbies SHOULD walk this one…
June 30th, 2012 at 11:25 SAST
108@ grootblousmile:
hahahahaha. Was reading all season Bull bloggers (not on this site) saying it would be the Stormer/Bulls game that will decide the Bulls fate in this tourney. Some never realised it would be Bulls playing the Sharks next week that will decide where they are in the tourney.
It will be a massive game, whether Sharks are out of it or not. Players still playing to impress H. Meyer for selection for the RC. Going to be a hard fought battle at the tank for sure.

111@ grootblousmile:
With 5 points I think.

Shall we mosey on over to the new game thread….

@ grootblousmile:
Goed man, dankie gewees, net woes besig die laaste twee dae met die bouerasies hier by die huis.
Jy klaar met joune?
Praat later, gou eet en die volgende wedstryd saam met julle kyk.

102@ Blue Bird:
Sorry BB got caught up in the game. Only saw your post now.
Enjoy Sicily. Never been there, but have been to many other parts of Italy. Well that is a sure way to get some sun. Your summer sounds awful..haha. We haveing magnificent weather and it is our winter. 24 here today with full sun.

Howzit Piet. You back in Saudi or still in the Cape?

112: Puma, as die Bulle vandag wen dan is volgende wedstryd tussen Bulle vs Sharks nie oor of Bulle nog in die semi’s gaan wees nie, dan gaan dit oor of the Sharks nog dalk in die semi’s gaan wees.
Canes het ‘n bye, dus na volgende week 53.
Die log kan so lyk voor volgende week se wedstryde vir spanne 4 tot 7:
4. Bulle 53/54
5. Canes 53
6. Saders 52
7. Sharks 49
8. Reds 49
Ja, as Bulle verloor vanaand teen Cheetahs, ja, dan is dit ‘n uitspeel wedstryd en die span wat verloor is basies uit, soos met laasjaar.
