Komaan Sharks, gee my ‘n wen asseblief.
Onsmaaklike weer innie Kaap,vis swem teen die wal, regte Haaiweer!
Snoek kom doen die game ook, ek het niks rugby beplan vanaand nie , my kinders is almal hier
Gaan ‘n morsige game wees die.
Players out on the field, raining cats and dogs.
Game ON!
I picked the Sharks by 5 on Bru
Lekker scrum vir die haaie
WP scrum problems persist….
Penalty to the Sharks… within easy range…. but in this weather???
3 punte op die bord.
Michalak slots it
Sharks 3 / 0
Kakkerlak skop goed, beste in CB. G’n wonder Lambie kry nie plek op losskakel nie, wonder net hoeveel dit sy kanse benadeel vir WB groep ?
@ ben_die_bul:
Dink nie Lambie is in die groep op die oomblik nie.
Twee losskakels is mos genoeg vir die WB
Penlty to WP, in their own half… they kick out
Difficult rugby in the conditions
Koster needs to work on his distribution…
Moes n penalty vir sharks gewees het by die scrum
Free kick to WP, early engage by the Sharks in a scrum…. Lobberts knocks after a quick tap
Penalty to WP, Catrakilis kicks out
Another penalty to WP, Catrakilis misses to the left of the posts
WP now have a lineout, about 10m out
difficult conditions
WP knock and the Sharks hack far ahead

dink bietjie hoeveel Springbok spelers al deur John Plumtree rond gedonner was, en nog steeds lyk hy nie werlik susesvol nie, een CB laasjaar. Maar Ruan, FS, JS en nou Pat almal deur hom rond gegooi, daar is meer. Hy dink net aan sy eie job en voel n veer vir Suid Afrika. Ook geen wonder nie want hy is n Kiwi, waarom sal hy sy eie mense teegaan?
Scrappy, scrappy game…. but lots of knocks in the difficult conditions
Ok manne ek groet eers.
Geniet die game.
Penalty to WP, on halfway…. going for touch
Now a free kick for WP, from the resulting lineout
