    @ sharky_forever:
    Jisja broer,gaan ok hier, net vroegoggend op, wag vir die rugby, moosa nervous vir die game!
    Mens sou sweer ek moet self speel….

    Maar dis n groot dag vir SA sport, Sharks, Proteas en n sterk moontlikheid van n medalje in die verspring.

    As die Sharks VANDAG wen gaan ek die res van die week dronk wees, al moet ek ook nou kameelpiepie en dadels brou!

    Good morning Pietman and Sharky you guys seem a wee bit excited this morning 🙂 hope you get a good game to watch

    @ sharky_forever:
    @4 Ek is seker Plum het n plan met SBW.
    Ek is meer bekommerd oor die vaste voorspel, Sharks sal daai kaalkop voorryman moet vasvat, hy is vir my die gevaarman.
    So Jannie Doep en die manne sal moet vasvat voor, en Bresler sal daai ouens moet fktup tekkel.
    As die Sharks vir die Chiefs swak balbesit gee, is die saak half gewonne.

    Die Sharks kan, as die seer lywe net nog 85 minute kan hou….

    Top of the morning to you as well bro’!

    I still have to find an excuse not going to the office this morning, no way I am going to miss this.

    You have a link to watch the game?

    Only another 2 hours to go till kick off am sure your nerves will manage, this is one of the many reasons why we follow sport – the anticipation and excitement (yes even the nervous stuff) ahead of such a big occasion for our team, there is a time to be logical and level headed and keep perspective but then also a time like now for you guys to just let the passion take over and enjoy the big moment.

    11 @ Pietman:
    Hey Pietman you lucky man if you can choose to stay and watch, pity not the same this side, got the short straw again and need to go in to office fairly soon, oh well someone has to do it.

    @ Bullscot:
    Talking about big moments in sport and passion it was so nice to see Le Clos’ dad being interviewed on the BBC last night just after his boy won the silver, he was just so proud and bubbly with his flag on his lap and really funny relating a story about how people have been stopping him in the street now and wanting there photo taken with him and making the loud sounds of a baby crying when someone passed the baby to him for a photo, this all on our national TV such a breath of fresh air where everything is so ‘choreagraphed and properly done’, no airs and graces from him and he was just singing the praises of the British people at the Olympics, was just a really nice thing to see.

    ‘Showers, easterly breezes, temp dropping to 6 degrees C’ during the match…..and ‘Kiwi Welsh’ to top it off. Sounds like a really kuk day for us over there in ‘The Land of the Long Moaners and Groaners’.

    @ Bullscot:
    likewise mate, take care and hav a good one

  • 22

    @ Bullscot:
    @16 Saw the toppie during the interview after the gold medal, I believe it is to most watched interview on tv over there. It was really funny at the end when he realised he was on live tv! But the old boy was over the moon, and rightly so. His laaitie is making a shyteload of money in the process as well, so it was a good investment encouraging him to persist with swimming.

    @ Bullscot:

    Cheers Bully…see if you can steal a peep at the game on that link Sharky posted.

    So, ou GBS was darem al in die koerant ook, LOL!
