Try of the weekend?

Must be this one! Biggest dummy in the history of the game!!

I would say that Joe's was the best for me. Wonder if he will maybe get a Springbok call up. Maybe the new coach will also think he is too small.

I have to agree that it was a very good try.....and I'm not even a Bull supporter

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Nah, I reckon Pietersens try made that one look absolutely ordinary ......

 

[Ou grote]

Ah crap, I keep forgetting to make my selections. At this rate even you might beat me...

You probably can catch up.
For the last couple of rounds the points are higher, so if you get those games right you score big time.

For Super Rugby:
Value Rounds
1.00 pt From Round 1 to 18
2.00 pts From Round 19 to 20
3.00 pts Final

Unlikely. I keep backing The Sharks...

Well I've picked the Stormers to lose 3 times already.
I have no idea why they're winning.

You can make up 2 or 3 points a week easily.
It usually comes down to who makes the right picks in the final rounds.

Same here. As soon as I start picking them they'll probably lose...

Not at all. Joe Pietersen's try was a lot better.

Any feedback on all the white cards issued this weekend?

Feedback from Karl Lowe is that, and I quote, "It hurt like a motherfscker, mate..."

Not surprisingly, no evidence in the Angelic Crusaders v Dirty Bulls white card

But now Greg Peters feels the team making the claims should be punished if the claims can't be substantiated to SANZAR's (the SA is silent) satisfaction.

For those who forgot, Richie Mccaw's claim of eye gouging by France's Aurelien Rougerie was treated like a murder investigation.

Shocking call by Pro Legoete. Carter was behind the ball carrier - how could he be causing obstruction?

He was inbetween the tackler and the ball carrier. Not only did he change his running line, he also used his shoulder and arm to obstruct Basson.
BTW, by your logic you are allowed to pull back an opponent by his jersey as long as you're behind the ball carrier.

...and I for one am sick of it. Agreed - remember that inquisition well!

Me, Stormers ???????????????????????????????


My team is currently not doing well.... at least we're not the worst SA team thus far!

Cheetahs or Sharks?

 

[MickeyD]

Cheetahs or Sharks?

Cheetahs are on a roll.... doing brilliantly!!

My team not

 

[sand_man]

My team not

They not doing too badly, 3 from 4, the Eastern Province Kings!!!

Agree, Cheetahs have been fantastic. Look forward to watching them play!!

The Lions by contrast are painful to watch. I would rather go to the dentist than Ellis Park.
