My Bruuuuu in it’s Muuuuuu
Thats the game. Well done Oom Piet and JFK!
Final Score: Chiefs 24 / 19 Crusaders
Chiefs en Landers gaan Blues en Saders nog uitskakel as dit so aangaan. Wanneer is Carter en Richie terug ?
Dink die afrigtingspan van die Saders gaan vanaand die fliek ‘Get Carter’ kyk !
124 @ bdb:
MaKou… still a while, Carter I don’t think has very long to go.
Hehehehehehehe! Lekka man, CHIEFS!!!!!!!
Watch this team boys, even the Bulls will have their work cut out against these okes from Moola County, they remind me of the great days of Frank Bunce and Co.
Well that was the 2nd time Saders have let me down on bru. Will have to think careful before picking them again.
So, the Chiefs are 2 from 3, the Saders 1 from 3.
127@ Pietman:Yip, Chiefs playing well for now. Saders will get better though when they get some of their players back. For now I am really impressed by the Landers. Never thought they would be doing so well this year. Think they will beat the Tahs tomorrow. Nice actually to see the weaker of the NZ sides doing well so far this year.
128 @ Puma:
Oubaas, I’ve backed the Sharks on Bru for the game against the Lions.
What do you think?
130 @ Puma:
I’ve gone for the Waratahs for a narrow win against the Landers.
Just think the Landers will come undone sometime, like last year.
Last year they also started well, but fell away later.
127: ek dink ons sal na Saterdagaand eers kan sê hoe lyk die Bulle vir hierdie jaar. Eerste twee wedstryde was goed maar dit was teen twee SA spanne wat nie te goed was nie. So Saterdagaand sal vir ons ‘n goeie aanduiding gee hoe lyk die nuwe Bulle span. Net jammer Hougie is nie daar nie, maar ek dink Jano is meer as genoeg om die Blues se stut-skrumskakel, Weepu in toom te hou.
Hy het sy naam glo gekry toe hy as baba op die skaal gekruip het, toe het die skaal gesê ‘u’…. en sy ma het begin ‘weep’.
131@ grootblousmile:Yes you right there, think Sharks will win tomorrow. We came close against the Bulls and Stormers away so we due a win. Just hoping we keep the discipline tomorrow, as that is what is costing us huge at the moment.
@ Puma:
Howzit bru?
Yes, spoke to GBS on skype last night, about the same.
I think Saders will be out of it by the time McCaw and Carter return.
Landers, Chiefs, Reds and Tahs (with Sareltjie) are the only ones who could give Bulls/Sharks and Stormers a go, imo.
133 @ bdb:
“Weep” “Poo”
Sy ma het ge-Weep en sy pa het in sy broek ge-Poo…
Hahahaha
132@ grootblousmile:It is a home game for Landers so think they will sneak a win there. Landers by anything from 1 to 5.
137 @ Puma:
I just think that the Waratahs and Reds are the 2 clear Aussie contenders… and Tahs has not looked bad.
@ bdb:
Gisteraand vir GBS gese ek soek Hougie op vleuel, hy tas te veel rond agter die oond, te min spasie daar vir hom.
Bulle is flippin goed vanjaar, daai voorry! Hulle gaan die ding doen, moet net die oorsese deel wen sonder beserings.
135@ Pietman: For now it is looking good for Landers and Chiefs. Season is so long this year anything could still change. Though it is great to see those two teams taking the lead in the NZ conference. Most teams still have to travel and only once they have that behind them then will see who is where.
Sharks play Chiefs and Landers at Kings Park this year so at least that should be a little easier for my team. Sharks playing Blues, Canes in NZ and Tahs, Brumbies in Oz. Blues not looking as good as I thought they would. Then they often come back in the tourney. Not sure about who Bulls and Stormers play away.
138@ grootblousmile: Yes agree, but think Tahs have lost a player for this game against Tahs. Can’t remember who it was, just glanced at news 24 this morning and read it there. Think Landers at home could win it. Well I am so rubbish on bru this year it could well be Tahs now that I have picked Landers……hahaha.
Okay need to go out. Catch up tomorrow.
Cheers everyone.
GO SHARKS.
Oh Bugger! I leave the office for a few hours, and the Saders fook up my Superbru, yet again I may add!! Oh well Cheetahs, need to restore some credibility, so maybe I will make a few points there lol
143@ Cheetah4eva:
Yep. Varking Kiwis are good for sh1t all.
I’ve already poxed the sharks for tomorrow by taking them on SuperBru. Hehehehe. One way of getting a Lions victory!
