Kom Skotte, smoke die Iere!
Stormers VS Bulls at Newlands will be the game of the season -World wid(except if the Bulls play Stormers at orlando stadium……in the final
Was a close game. Todays was also tough so I am glad its over. Am going to have withdrawal symptomes seeing no more Newlands for a few weeks lol
Wonder waar is Irish Devil , seker daar in die Milinium Stadion.
As die Sharks nie vandag gewen het nie, sou ek gedink het die game van die jaar sal die Sharks tn die Lions wees. 😆
Karen, jy hoef nie te antwoord maar is jy dalk Familie van John v Rensburg? Ek weet hy is ook een van die houers van vele programme.
Onerb – I agree it is gonna be one hell of a game
Rugby lovers may lose their last bit of time they had for soccer this year

Hahahhaahaha
Onerb nee ek is nie. My oorsese pelle stuur gewoonlik vir my programme van oorsee af as die bokke daar speel. Die Springbok goed het ek van my pa gekry want hy was pelle met Alex Kellerman wat sekretaris was van SARFU en hy het ook goed van Jan Pickard gekry.
I’ve put some photo’s on the Stormers Game Thread…. go look!
Firestraeuli – by time the Sharks won and I am glad because I got my grandslam point on bru 🙂 Seriously am happy that they won. Must say the Lions at least did not lose so badly as last week but hell the Tahs and Force game was crap
Ireland struggling here….Scotland leading….caan’t believe it!

These misses could really cost Ireland as Sexton hooks it to the left.

Cian Healey takes a poor pass from O’Leary – it was at face height from about two feet away – and understandably knocks on, but Scotland are penalised for being offside at the ruck and Sexton will kick for goal from the left-hand touchline.
Ok ek se eers bye – lekker bly Superbul en ander.
grootPienk,
Ek laaik die negentiende prentjie die meeste….Sharks op na 11 toe, net 1 weg van 1 af 😉
Karen – Must be tough being a Lions supporter right now! Being a Stormer must have been tricky in the first few weeks tho! 🙂
Cheers Blue Bird – nice to meet you. Will chat again 🙂
True Blue Bird but hey I am one of those that will support the team even if they lose 20 on the trot. A true supporter sticks with the team through thick and thin.
Aaaaaahhhhh Karen,
Kotch it was difficult to choose which was most boring, the ozzie commentary or the rugby game.
Good old boring ozzie rugby

Karin that were you got your love for Rugby?
Blue Bird i am talking all around you nice to have you here, enjoy this site. This place is addictive.
See you Karen, thanks for the chat tonight.
Ireland (7) 7 – 17 (14) Scotland (49′)

This is absurd – O’Gara is waiting to come on and is in fact 10 metres onto the pitch, but Sexton indicates that he wants to kick the penalty before he goes off – that’s really petulant stuff from the young 10, he’d better make this.
Karen, well done today. Your team were deserved winners!Schalk and Pieter Louw were outstanding
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
I mean Francois Louw. Bekker was good and the new kid Whitehead.
LH you missed HB dearly today. Still no reason to feel bad, if only Naaas kicked better a few extra washers would have been nipped.
51 10 – 17
He does, just, but that was hardly a moment where the youngster covered himself in glory…
81. superBul, thanks for the addiction warning!
I had better go before it affects me….!!
Have a Good Night all..I have to fly..
Ireland (7) 10 – 17 (14) Scotland (52′)
