Currie Cup 2013

Bizzie used up a get-out-of-jail-free card there ..... While I don't personally think it was much of an incident, being who he is and lashing out stupidly is just that, stupid.

The other 4 flew with Mango. Probably the front row and Botes...

Hao, Kaplan's last game this, I didn't know.

Hope he doesn't fsck up what poses to be a great clash...

One of SA's best ever refs...

 

[OGroteKoning]

One of SA's best ever refs...

Not arguing that at all, just hope that in the moment (last game n all) he doesn't mess it up. For me, if I don't notice the ref and see a flowing game, it means the ref is handling the game well.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Luckily he's not really that kind of ref ..... I mean he's had one or two :wtf: calls in his career but he's the type of ref that even when your team loses, you know he blew the game well. Much respect for Kaplan, a great loss.

 

[bokka1]

I think it is going to be a great game between the two best teams in the country.

WP to take it by 9.

15 SP Marais, 14 Odwa Ndungane, 13 Louis Ludik, 12 Francois Steyn, 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Patrick Lambie, 9 Charl McLeod, 8 Keegan Daniel (captain), 7 Willem Alberts, 6 Marcell Coetzee, 5 Pieter-Steph du Toit, 4 Peet Marais, 3 Jannie du Plessis, 2 Bismarck du Plessis, 1 Tendai Mtawarira.

So basically two full strength sides ....... oh it's gonna be an awesome clash, can't wait

 

[Devill]

I hope that this game lives up to the hype.

I am sure the set piece battle will be a great one, as well as the Lamby vs Katrikilis battle.

At least I will be able to enjoy the game objectively

 

[ponder]

Weather looking good for tomorrow,

 

[KOPITE]

Province outclassing the Sharks tomorrow.

 

[TheMightyQuin]

Not arguing that at all, just hope that in the moment (last game n all) he doesn't mess it up. For me, if I don't notice the ref and see a flowing game, it means YOUR TEAM is winning.

FTFY

 

[OGroteKoning]

FTFY

Errrrrr... Not quite. My team has not lost a game the competition and yet I see plenty crap decisions and a lot if incidents missed.

But, let's see how it goes tomorrow

 

[Vrotappel]

Go Sharks
