    Enjoy it!

    My wife is wearing her Stormers jersey, I think she is hoping to come second for a change.
    I am wearing my Shark jersey, it’s my way of saying I’m not in the mood to score

    Wow. What an absolutely stupendous 160 minute long advert for SA Rugby……NOT

    Lions- absolute SHYTE.
    Stormers – ok for 40 minutes followed by 40 minutes of Lions like SHYTE.

    Sharks – 40 minutes of utter SHYTE followed by 40 minutes of mediocre Rugby, likewise the Cheetahs.

    Worse 2 local derby games I’ve seen for a fooking long time.

    Better to watch UK soccer than that crap.

    Hell, even better to watch SA soccer than that!

    Well done to the winners. At least you did enough for the points.

    Morne Morkel following on from where he left off in the WC
    Jeez, he is a terrible bowler

  • 284

    @ Scrumdown:

    Yes… I agree… Jake White seems to have become more AC than AC himself.. Its only a matter of time before the Sharks are going down too. .. Naka has always been fairly useless… Ackers is trying hard but does not have enough talent to work with… FL is neither here nor there…

    I wont go so far as to say SA soccer is better to watch but UK soccer is certainly much more enjoyable to watch than this crap… specially Liverpool FC 🙂

    Well done JP Duminy … what a knock !

    Very good knock, but thanks to M Morkel
    Worst 20/20 bowler in the history of the game
    Cost me big time, Kolkotta could have won by a small margin, but gifting a 21 run over at a crucial time gave DD the game

    @ nortierd:

    I must say i enjoy watching IPL cricket when i have the time… i have no “loyalty” to any of the teams but it is nice to see local players doing so well.

    Interesting interview with Carl Langeveldt in ” Die Burger” today.. he said he always tried his best at IPL cricket as he is a professional but could never get so “charged up” over there as when he was playing for the Cobras.

  • 288

    @Robzim
    It seems as if the Protea players lift their game for the IPL, but not for the Proteas.
    Except Morkel, he gets clouted irrispective of who he plays for.
    I don’t have a loyalty to any side, only to my SuperBru picks

    What’s the point of watching rugby games when its ‘scripts’ – as Nortierd called it – is already a well known secret?
    The weekend’s rugby was saved by the NZ teams, at least there is a real competition somewhere?
    🙁

    jeepers amd we thought berry was on the lions pay roll. .. Today he made it clear he will favour any home team. or he is completely inept as a refer ee

    20 penalties against the home side?
    Only 12 against the away side

    @ nortierd:
    geez nortie, how about that scrum where the touch judge could see a penalty 65m away while he couldnt?

    too be honest though he was shocking for both teams.

  • 293

    @Macrobull
    Lol, he isn’t the best ref going around.
    I particularly enjoyed the part where Faf rucked Rhodes’ face and Berry was like a meter away. Then he goes to the TMO, and it’s shown on the big screen with the TMO saying that he put boot to the players head, yet Berry even missed it on the big screen and dismissed the TMO.

  • 294

    @ nortierd:
    I think his arguement was that it was not clearly visible where the boot went… rhodes retaliated but that doesnt mean much as he would retaliate if someone merely looks at him funny.

    As Mallet mentioned after match, if the intent was there, it shouldn’t matter whether the boot made contact or not.
    It’s like throwing a punch and missing, then the ref is like ” o ok, don’t do it again” fact is, a punch is illegal, same as stamping or rucking a player, especially in or around the face or head

  • 296

    @ nortierd:
    or like picking up a player horizontally and just letting him drop… late

  • 297

    STOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRMMEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

    Die leeutemmers.

    Stadig, maar seker sal ons daai leer klim.

  • 298

    Some Shark supporters still not seeing how kak their team is.

    I predict a loss for them next week. No Lambe, no Zeilinga, no Swiel, Steyn with a hamstring problem. Where are they going to find a fly half?

    Move Mvovo there?

    It does not matter where the boot went… what matter was the intent… the fact is the short arsed scrummie from the Lions intended to rake rhodes’ head … and he should not have “benefitted” only because he aimed skew…. as the greatest blue bull in the history of the game ( Naas) said afterwards: ” A player does not have to break somebody’s nose to be penalised for throwing a punch” .
