Ref warns Blues………………………………….
Brumbies shot at goal for Christian Leali’ifano.
He easily slots it.
Brumbies 26 / 9 Blues
Impressive win by the Brumbies in poor conditions.
So far keeping the Blues tryless, very good
Brumbies have a handy lead to throw everything into getting the bonus point try
Hope the Proteas manage to beat India in a bit
Just seen at bottom of page we have 39 users online, quite good for mid Friday
How Nonu can be so shit during the SR, irrespective of which franchise he players for, but jeez, put an All Black jersey on him and he is like a man possessed. Guess Conrad Smith just brings the best out of him
12:13 @ Bullscot:
I do too. Though it will be difficult as think India is used to those pitches. Hope thair is on song today as so far he has pucked up most wickets there from the spinners.
🙂
@ Bullscot:
Was with a bunch of Indians at Immigration last night, I became an instant celebrity when they realized I was from SA, Peter Kirsten a real hero over there, a great ambassador to our country he was over there, could teach our fat politicos abroad a thing or two about representing your country with honour.
Blues just bundled out…. less than 3 minutes left in the game
Thair= Tahir
@Puma
“Hope thair is on song today as so far he has pucked up most wickets there from the spinners”
Lol, are you saying Tahir has fucked up more wickets?
12:15 @ Bullscot:
How do you like the new site design (prior to the last tweaks still to be made)?
The Brumbies need Jake Peyper?
Excellent defensive game from the Brumbies, denying the Blues right at the death
@ Puma:
Hi Puma looking at the form it would be an upset for Proteas to win but AB is in great form and Amla far better so hope the others lift their game as well don’t know why Robin Peterson is not there
Blues try?
No try, was a Blues knock.
Brumbies defensive scrum, 5m from their own line.
Blues penalty, quick tap and go… come on, get a converted try, please!
@ grootblousmile:
first time seeing new site Gbs need to get used to it will it be different for posting articles too?
Good win Ponies.
Canberra aways a tough ask.
12:23 @ Bullscot:
No different… in fact slightly easier, because I’ve taken the hindrance of the “BOTTOM HEADLINES” (below the Article Block) away
Final Score: Brumbies 26 / 9 Blues
Almost at end journey here cheers for now folks
Brumbies win but not with the bonus point. Thought when it was 69min and Brumbies got the penslty they would go for a try there and not the 3 points. Suppose they wanted the win first but so far ahead at the time I would have gone for corners there and tried for the 4th try.
Blues, the perrenial under achievers of NZ Rugby over the last 10 years?
@ grootblousmile:
ok thanks Gbs will have a look at it later, will email you sometime in weekend will try get some screen shots to show what it looks like on my Windows phone, not used new site on PC yet cheers for now ou pel
@ grootblousmile:
I like it. I posted an article after a long absence of publishing, but will need a slight tutorial to get properly up to speed.
@ Bullscot:
On the cricket I hope so too. Hope we can win this one. Will be tough but we can do it.
@ nortierd:
Well had no idea he had picked up most wickets as have not seen every game. Just read it in the pPers. So hope he is on song against the Indians.
