Probleem vir die Leeus is dat hul topsspelers nie die hele seisoen tot met die relugasie wedstryd saamspeel nie, terwyl die Kings na 14 super wedstryde dalk net beter voorberei kan wees. Gaan ‘n riller wees daardie 2 uitspeelwedstryde.

Lions win with a lot of help. Many skew lineouts, many yellow cards for the opposition. Great new addition to rugby the Kings will beat a few, i am willing to put up a few beers for that. Bulls better be wide awake, traditionaly the EP had a liking for red meat.

nee ou maat ek het baie goed gesien in hul spel. Ref het twee stelle reels gehad. Baie vinnig geblaas na die een kant maar baie leeway na die ander. Hulle(Kings) speel soos n NZ span, hou bal lewendig en kan bou op die vertoning. Een van ons twee gaan verkeerd wees. Ek dink rugby gaan gespeel word deur die Kings. Hul skrum het swaar geleef.

@ grootblousmile:
Ek sit 6 sletsappies op vir 1 wen 2×6 vir 2 en 4×6 vir drie, nul wenne sal my 24 kos. Hoes daai for put your money where your mouth is?
