    Dis n grote hierdie!
    The power of SA vs NZ, Slam-Dunk wish I could be at Loftus for this one, I would even sit on the east stand sucking a naartjie, if only…

    C’mon the BOOLS , turn it on!!!!!
    (‘Blue Power,Powered by Ford”, those old Cortina XR6 Interceptor logos used to say! I once saw a Nissan Skyline parked at Iscor’s workshops, with one of those ‘Powered by Ford’ stickers, hehehe….must have been one of those Daspoort ‘appies’.)

    Hougadrd’s trial day!
    If he fails again against a Kiwi team at No 9 it would serve a notice to HM!
    The Bulls should win this one, the Chiefs are unsettled with a 6-7 players dropped from last week’s line up
    And the altitude still there too, so is Craig Joubert whose ‘contribution’ will be minimal this time.

    @ Hondo:
    Hougaard was pretty good last week and there is honestly no other scrumhalf in SA playing well except Faf de Klerk, Hougaard was also very good with his passes last week… dont know what you are on Hondo Tounge-Out

    I’m with you on those two.
    Will be great if both those sides win

    I was extremely critical of Jaques Du Plessis last year and thought he was the most impotent player the Bulls ever had. I thought he was no good in the Currie Cup of 2013, BUT I must admit, he has played well so far in this years SR.

    Not many people at Loftus, the main stand is quite well populated, but the rest looks rather forlorn!

    Pretoria is nou arm, Petrol maak ons Nasie bankrot.

    @ nortierd:
    I am with you, I was also quite vocal about my displeasure in him, but he has been awesome. I think he was a bit tentative last year but is really going full tilt now and doing everything, he is taclking, breaking tackles and even stealing balls.

    Loftus is usually full when the Sharks and Stormers play, but then at least half those seats are filled by Sharks and Stormer supporters. There is still a huge fan base for those two sides in Pretoria and Jo’burg and they pull up to Loftus once a year when their sides play there.

    Dit kos deesdae, met die ekonomie soos wat hy is, te duur om jou familie na elke game te bring… R 600.00 of R 800.00 vir die dag…

    Dis hoekom die plaaslike derbies meer ondersteuners lok.
