Zas playing like a $hark .

[Sards]

Junktjies is such a step down

Massive drop in tempo.
He is so badly out of form
Wish we could get 2019 Herschel back.

One year wonder

[OomStruisbaai]

Deon Fourie for Springboks

[Blake]

Deon Fourie…what a guy!

[Blake]

One year wonder

Yep.

We’ve had a couple of those other the years unfortunately.
Nohamba was on a similar trajectory.


Stormers down to 13 now. Making hard work of this after a great start.

[Sards]

Bulls vs Stormers next week. Going to be interesting. I can't remember a Bulls side stronger than the Stormers at scrum

[OomStruisbaai]

Stormers can play with 13 men

[OomStruisbaai]

Damian Willemse get us the turn over with excellent defense. Something Bosch don't have

Munster 6-11Leinster 25 mins. Game of the weekend

[OomStruisbaai]

Munster 12-11 great turn over

[Tichtheid]

Congrats to Lions fans for the result earlier.

I saw it up to the Bradbury yellow card, it was a hugely disappointing performance from Edinburgh and a disappointing result, hopefully we'll learn from it.

Good luck to the Lions for the rest of the season

[OomStruisbaai]

Byrnes kicking style.

[OomStruisbaai]

Nice try Ellendig

Classy post.

Thanks, honestly did not expect this result, seems as if there has been an exponential increase in belief in this Lions side (and coaching set up) that bodes well for 2-3 years down the line, assuming we can hold on to the youngsters now starting to realise their promise.

Lions need to fuck over the fancy $hark$ next weekend

Eeèeeewuyyýwwww

Wash your mouth out.

Your jealousy knows no bounds


I will hate to hear your mouth when Eben runs out as a Shark


My highlight of next weekend is going to be Kittycat and fattyboy getting their arses handed to them by the Bulls

The Bulls of all teams

[bok_viking]

The Mun/Lei game had the best outcome for the 3 SA teams fighting for the playoffs and possible spots for Europe.

[bok_viking]

Big game for the Bulls next weekend, if they can beat the Stormers in CT they will be in a great position. Was considering flying down to CT for the weekend but damn the flight ticket prices are crazy right now from jhb to cpt

Yep it's always the biggest rivalry on SA. The Bulls are the favorites. They are in great form. The winner will top the SA log.

Leinster is the team to beat in this competition. They were excellent last night beating Munster without much effort.

Sharks have them first. Not sure home or away

[assfly]

The highlight of the weekend for me was the huge crowd at Loftus on a sunny afternoon. Been a long time since I've seen that, looks like the good old days.

I think the late kick-off games are going to be hard sells. Especially for Ellis Park .

Ellis Park looks a huge problem.


You know the Durban crowd. They will go if the Sharks are winning. The team knows that. Keep on winning. The crowd is there. Let's face it. There's the beach, fishing and braai on a weekend. Much better than going to watch your team lose

Sigh.....its not like fortress Loftus. Some days it just doesn't click. And then it goes for a ball of Shite. They win big, lose big. Haven't been closing out the tight ones

2nd week top of the pops.....the arrogance is setting in. He loves the Sharks. It's like watching the power game of the Stormers in action. Except with the real bok front row which brings a Dominant scrum and powerful running loose forwards. Imagine the grunt Eben is going to bring in the locks. It's basically the Springbok pack and Ouboet can't stand that
The Sharks destroyed the Dragons forwards. Broke them. Chewed them up and spat them out. The Stormers forward pack only had the ex Sharks player Evan doing anything.

Bongi is looking like a superstar at the Sharks. WP couldn't get that out of him

Yeah it was fantastic to be in a crowd like that again. I absolutely loved the day out. To think some of the young players in the team have never played in front of a big crowd at home. Nortje was talking about it yesterday how it was his first experience with a big home crowd, he only got into the first team after the crowd ban came in.

I wish there was an easy solution for Ellis Park, unless that side of the city gets redeveloped they are always going to be screwed with crowds, specially in the evening. People only seem to dare that side of town during Bok matches.

[Sards]

Marius my friend is the Stormers friend. Let's play without him, Immelman and Seconds

[bok_viking]

So they had a discussion yesterday after all the matches were done that all the 3 SA teams need to move up 1 position in the log then all 3 would make it into the European competition next year.
