    @ Te Rangatira:

    Great win by the Blacks… Well done…

    Nothing like humility in sport – the key to a good sportsman…

    @ NZINCHINA:
    Haha…Ol Borman…I like how the Sa commentators say the two best teams in the world…I thought only one could be the best 😉

  • 276

    @ Te Rangatira:
    Who is Borman?
    You are surely not referring to the late Koos Bornman from Upington, also known as Koos Kalahari, who used to commentate at matches during agricultural shows in the 70s? That is the only Bornman remotely related to sports in SA I know of, apart from Uncle Corrie Bornman the Tvl rugby manager…..you guys talking about him?

    @ Pietman:

    i was also wondering who it might be.

    Only Bornman I know is Ricardo Bornman 🙂

    Well done All Blacks. What a scoreline!

    Boks and HM, be warned. The black tide is rolling again.

    Awoken to the birds singing the praises…except the Pukeko who don’t actually sing but have this shriek that sounds terrible…. looking forward to the Argies v Bok….expect Meyers men to do what the Abs did to Oz…run hard and straight and string some passes together… but they’ll have to dominate the set piece which is the key
