    I know some Shark supporters don’t rate Swiel, but I’m actually glad that Steyn rested Monday and Tuesday and can play today. I know he wins them games by kicking penalties, but we all know he won’t start a backline revolution while at 10. Swiel on the other hand, might just be really fired up to give AC a big fat up yours, and he has the skill to tear the Stormers apart, he just didn’t have centers around him to keep up. Maybe with Jordaan back it would be different.

    My experiences with GP’s in the last few years I have learned that it is not such a difficult job, they just prescribe drugs the latest reps sold them for similar symptoms. It is a joke.

    Yep, I read his blog on SuperSport.
    By far the best of the blogs there, most informative and knowledgable of all their writers

    @ 269

    I once spoke to a guy who studied Phys ed at Maties with Peter Kirsten…as part of the course the students had to show some proficiency in a number of sports… in the beginning of the year Kirsten was by far the best in every sport except swimming…apparently he could not even do a lap…

    At the end of the year he was also the second best swimmer in the group… the only one who managed to beat him was Greg Carswell who was a springbok swimmer at the time .

    Its nearly a crime to have so much talent….

    @ nortierd:
    Ponados and anti inflammation pills, then Just keep your leg raised, and call him if it continuous until tuesday…

    I tend to agree with you, if Boetie can be a GP then it can’t be too difficult.
    Come to think of it, do you think Boetie is the medical expert Jake consults with to prescribe 2 rest days to fix a chronic knee injury?

    Is it me or is this seriously unfair, Saracens travel to cardiff last week, while Northampton took the week off…

    It will be something absolutely special if Toulon can win their game tonight.
