So congrats Crusaders, a well deserved victory…
See you guys in SA !!!
294, no Ash I mean the pathetic Stormers who were klapped by the Sharks [ who the mighty Cheetahs beat] and will come second to a mixture of the Bulls B, Vodacom Cup and U219 team. 😆
Ash
I had no idea you were in S&M 😯
RP
Congrats on your team, they were the best team on the park today…
Think it could be Canes coming too. Both Saders and Canes lost all their games in SA. Maybe want to make amends? Wow!! if that happens what a turn around.
292: hehehe. Ons gaan so bietjie ‘revenge’ neem vir al daardie jare wat in hul ons buurte kom regstellende aksie toe pas het ! Hoop ek kry my paar karre daar wat ek vir die nuwe SA geskenk het.
307 – Loosehead, Listen you (mighty Cheetah) My team could have klapped yours that day…..hehehe. Had we not had Pro come on in the 2nd half 😯 We have him tomorrow too as ref 😯
Saders throw their subs on…. they’re resting players now too…. hahaha
princess @ 308
S&M?
GBS, will we get a “lets insult the Stormers thread”?
TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Try Guildford… rubbing salt into the wounds
Rugby Princess, only a few min left but Saders will win this. So Congrats to your team on making the semi.
@ 313 😯
Kannie wees nie, word dit toegelaat ?
Saders 40 / 17
Guilford should start in the all black jumper.
Goeie drie, geluk aan die Saders, baie goeie span.
Die rede waarom die Bulle hul spelers gerus het, is juis omdat hul geweet het hul gaan die Saders weer iewers langs die pad kry, semi of finaal.
Sal goed wees om so finaal te sien, tussen die 2 beste spanne die afgelope paar jare in die S14.
312 Puma, you had better no get snot klapped by the Force.
I must admit to worrying a little about the Lions.
315 – Loosehead 😆
got the pic right but not the score come on brumbies one more 7 pointer…..
less than a minute left…
Barra Bing Ting Ting
Dis darem ma nie mooi as ‘n span weet hy is deur en dan gooi hy al sy “subs” op nie.
Teen die gees van die spel sou ek se 😯
Blouste
Tks, time to put our game faces on I reckon 😀
Ash
Well, you the one who likes being smacked … 😯
Pumes
Tks – look out here we come !! 😆
322 – Loosehead, With Pro there anything can happen 😯
Saders have klapped the Brumbies here for sure.
I must leave for the airport.
Cheers, till later.
318; dit is teen die gees van rugby, hoe moet die Brumbies nou voel ! Ja, ja, Saders het gewen, maar hul moet hul sleutelspelers in die grond in speel, al is daar niks meer op die spel in die laaste minute nie. Hou die spelers op, dat hul kan seerkry.
