Think it will be brilliant for Jake to win the Aussie conference. So hope that they do.

107 @ The_Young_Turk:
Agree. Absolutely. Why let such talent go for other countries to benefit? Bloody daft really.
July 7th, 2012 at 13:22 SAST
Well, maybe time to just go and install the kitchen tap mixer…. before the next game
July 7th, 2012 at 13:23 SAST
Tahs, go ask Federer – its how you play the ‘big’ points and that decision to go for the posts with 10 to go was a bad play and ultimately cost you the game.
All tight games in any sport test your self belief.
And that folks, is why the easy three pointer is not always the best decision.

98 @ Pietman:
Is a pity Piet, because we should have won that game. We had a kiwi ref that night too. Really don’t like the reffing system, need to get back to neutral refs. Anyhow had we won we too would have been further on the log, but more importantly Stormers would be sitting top of the log. I thought the kiwi ref got quite a few calls wrong that night. But it is gone and dusted. We have now just to do what we have to do. Another thing I hope this tourney goes back to the old format. It is too long and should have been completed before the Winter Tours started. Now we just have to hope our Boks in our teams don’t pick up any injuries and they are not dead on their feet come the RC. Crazy this S15 format.
Anyhow catch up later.

111 @ fender:
At the start of the game you always take the 3 points once in the lead then go for it. Or if you need the try to win just put your heads down and go for it. The reason Sharks are through was because of just that. We took a chance last night and it worked for us. Got the 4 tries.
Okay now really out of here. Catch up later.
