Reds very close now !!!
176@ Kitaartjie – The Arm when about to kick…. looks like a surfing stance…. hehehe
Ciao ou groote. Weather’s a bit shyte here but enjoying the rugby. Thanks for the welcome and enjoy your site.
5m from their line, line-out Canes
Fender @ 176 you are a mind reader. I was just thinking the same thing. Cooper is about as close to a surfer as I am to a lion tamer. Oh well, personal interpretation????
Would be good if the Reds are denied a bonus point for tries and a bonus point for losing with 7 or less
Blouste, ja. Backed the Canes to win.
superBul, check your Bru mail please.
Hehe!! OK, I get it…Reminds me of that Kurk Derm moof myself. 😉
Canes penalty, going for goal…
188@ Kitaartjie – Hehehehe… Kurk Derm…. hahahaha
Ja, old Kurt has that silly 2-step shuffle….
Canes 37 / 21
Weepu slots it…
37 – 21 Canes
Unconverted try for Reds will be just fine for me 🙂
@186 hope so too bigbluegrin
All Canes now I’m afraid…
Try David smith for Canes
Canes score another…
My margin pick in sy moer, maar darem die regte span…
#185 Griqua
I used to klap the West Coast waves when I was a laaitie. Just hope I never looked like that! To be 100% truthful the waves used to klap me more than what I klapped them, hehe!
We’ve got a Boere Pop singer here called Kurt Darren (Kurk Derm) and Quaint’s stance reminds me of one of his moves. I can tell you for free that when He pulls off that move, all Bulls fans hold on to their wives/girlfriends a little tighter.
You see, those chicks smaak him stukkend!!!
No need to be afraid, all good for the saffa teams 🙂
Canes 44 / 21
44 -21 Canes
Looking at the games tomorrow. Think the Tahs and Brumbies could both win. Then if Saders lose tonight think it will be a race for 3rd and 4th spot by, Tahs, Brumbies and maybe the Canes. Phew!! Changes now after every game played. Very exciting this year to see who will get in the semi.
Bulls will make it. Think Stormers will too.
Fender @ 198 Cooper reminds me of the three stooges when they shoot through from the scene of the debacle…………
198@ Kitaartjie – Old Kurk Derm is now the top-selling Afrikaans singer…. and at least he sings, Kaptein span die seile….
Big rugby man, even made a big investment in Boland Rugby…
201 – Blouste, Canes are thrashing the Reds now.

Even old Kokkerot-trapper Kort Derm beats your Stormers oke Jack Parrow 😆
Yip Puma…
