Try no 2 for Conrad Smith…….. heeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaaa
Hurricanes 17 / 16 Cusaders
Morning all,
What a joy to watch constructive running rugby. The Boks have the players to play the same, time to get rid of this kick and bash shit, that has permeated Bok rugby for so long.
Lemoenetyd
Let me go check on the progress outside… back now
Canes !
Assie Canes hier wen, kan Bulle, as hulle wen, na 4de posisie opskuif.
34: dis waar, ons moet vinniger speel, bal meer behou en lewendig hou deur vinnige aangee en off loads in die tackle situasie. Maar jy kan nie hardloop rugby speel as jou voorspelers nie oorheers nie !
@ Cheetah4eva:
A very good morning to you C 4 E……
Smash, bash, muscle crash rugby can get quite tedious, you are right!
2 Nd Half ON!
Crusaders 19 / 17 Hurricanes
Canes se gebrek aan ervaring slaan nou sterk deur.
Another Crusaders penalty… their scrums very, very strong
Missed by Tom Taylor again
Morning everyone.
Who would think this is winter??? Have shorts and t-shirt on..hehe. Best weather in the world right now in Durbs. Nothing but big blue sky too.
Thought this would be a close game but not as close as this. Canes have surprised this year.
Morning all. I have to ask myself what the hell I’m doing at the office? I must be the hardest working “staatsamptenaar” in history! Game looks good! On paper Crusaders should be comfortable victors – but as Naas (or some other rugby guru) said – rugby isn’t won on paper!
45@ GoBokkeAndIreland:
Life is too short to be working on a Saturday.
Where you based, in Ireland?
Saders shot at goal again, once again from strong forwards play
Crusaders 22 / 17 Hurricanes
@ Puma:
Hahaha Puma. Nope – Western Cape, work for the Dept of Economic Development and Tourism.
The regular crowd shuffles in…. Oompie Laatslaper & GoBokke
@ bdb,
Definately agree, and I believe that we have the young players coming through that can give us that. Coenie showed the value of big, but mobile props.
A team like this can give us power up front, and the skill and pace to run. It won’t happen soon, but maybe by end of next year.
Beast, Bismarck, Coenie
Willemse, Eztebeth
Brussow, Alberts, Vermeulen
Van Zyl, Goosen
Habana, Serfontein, Small-Smith, JPP, Taute
And there are so many other talented young players that we haven’t seen in CC or Super rugby.
Players like Pollard, Zeilinger, Adendorf, Maks van Dyk, Jason Thomas, Mark Pretorius, Vian vd Wath, Mbhovane, Swanepoel, Kebble and so many more
24 Minutes to go in the game… some SPEED BLOGGING required… we’ll even excuse Oompie Puma’s typo’s… heheehe
52@ grootblousmile:
Come on Canes… sort yourselves out, man!
49@ GoBokkeAndIreland:
Okay, thought you were in Ireland with a nic like that..lol. Cape is awesome. Great place to live too.
@ grootblousmile:
Morning GBS. Game sounds much closer than I thought it would be.
Errors now souring the game somewhat
51@ Cheetah4eva:
We have some awesome talent coming through, looking at those names.
56 @ GoBokkeAndIreland:
My SuperBru pick for this game was Saders by 10… difference only 5 now
58 @ Puma:
That young Jan Serfontein, centre of the Blue Bulls, could become awesome… promises sooooooo much
