Good luck to the Sharks and Lions…
Lion’s will have their work cut out for them tonight… but will be a great measure of how far they’ve come…
but must be objective, so… may the team playing the best rugby win…!!
And let’s hope the game shows SA rugby at its best…!
So there we were. The odds stacked against us in a place far from home, surrounded by hostile heathens.
Looks like we don’t have a chance!
Notwithstanding the odds, Lions For Life.
Gooooooooooo Rugby!
Scrumdown will be your captain for this game… whilst I go to the Bulls Press Conference and then home.
Gooooo Lions!!!
For obvious reasons…
1 @ ufo:
To be honest, I can’t see my Lions getting anything from this game if it plays out to the script.
However, the glory of Rugby Union is that sometimes a massive heart and a refusal to allow the inevitable to become reality can result in strange things happening on the field.
Let’s hope. Lions for Life.
GO LIONS
Players on the field.
Game on.
nee wag. goo superbru sharks by 8
No hope with Jantjies’ back
Sorry Lions, the 2011-2012 lesson didn’t get through these thick skulls
😉
@ Scrumdown: @ 6
Don’t count your chickens before they’re baked in a pie…! 😉
Hehehe… yeah Scrummie… they are up against an excellent Sharks Machine… but the Lion’s have a new lease on life… and attitude heart and commitment count for plenty… so anything can happen on any given day…
So let’s see what happens…
Good luck…!
Okay… outta here to watch the game…
Laters gators…
ag flok. daar donner die sharks met my superbru. waas is lambie.
In reality the home team should win by 15-20 points.
Lambie is my designated kicker in fantasy Bru, where is the little Pissie?
15: daar het seker iets met Puma gebeur ?
@ ufo:
U been reading Snor’s book again?
Sjooe. Late on Jantjies by Steyn?
@ nortierd:
jake white speel ook fantasy bru lyk dit my. insider trading
Ping – Pong – Ping -Pong
Brilliant hands.
That kid PJ is FAST
@ MacroBull:
Jake is a lying snake oil salesman that can’t be trusted
He was very grootbek in the beginning of the season about how Lambie will be playing 10 for every minute of every match because he is gods gift to fly halves and will show HM
lions moet maar min foute maak vandag anders kom hier n groot ding vir hulle in fiks fransie.
As die Leeus dink Tecklenburg is ‘n ball carrier gaan hul erg ontnugter word.
@ Scrumdown:
You are seeing things 😉
it’s in the Sharks’ interest to see Jantjies on the field
Hmm. Bismark sleeping on the job?
@ nortierd:
Well said.
@ nortierd:
@ nortierd:
and we trusted in that dirty dusty droopilily diddly doofus to keep lambie on to kick conversions the entire game even with a 50 point lead.
