Stormers did not deserve that win. And I live in Cape Town brah.

If Sias had kicked over tonight and kicked over two weeks ago they would have had 8 more super rugby points.

Just goes to show eh?

Bryan Habana is such a douche, I saw him do so many off the ball stuff tonight it's a wonder he had time to ****ing defend. I swear you can take the scrumhalf out of his position but you can't take the scrumhalf out of the player. (it's funny because he played srummie in high school).

Other than that, Ashley Johnson - jesus man that guy scares me.

Dunno what game you watch but the ref should have given the cheaters 2 yellow of all the warning in the 1st half. stormers should have put the game away already. a win is a win, no matter if you play k@k in the rounds. hope they learn from their mistakes
 
The only thing I did not like about sitting in the stadium is not being able to hear the ref.

That is true, I even did the Mexican Wave but it would have been nice to hear the ref especially when the massive fight broke out tonight but even just to hear the ref and players speak on the field would have been nice. It was like going to a silent movie.
 
Deon Fourie and Ashley Johnson have been issued off-field yellow cards for their part in a scuffle in Saturday’s match between the Cheetahs and Stormers.

A Sanzar citing commissioner found that the pair had contravened Law 10.4 (m) Acts Contrary to Good Sportsmanship. Johnson and Fourie were involved in a scuffle where they began throwing punches at each other.

An off field yellow? Seriously? That is disgusting ........ that citing asswipe needs to be fired.
 
I thought I was watching Nacho Libre when Ashley, I need a haircut, Johnson had a ripped blouse.

What the hell is an off field yellow? It means nothing. But what a fantastic fight...

Erm, btw, if you had spilled the amstel, would the invoice not have included a new keyboard?
 
Nee bra, I'm wise enough in my old age to have a safety distance of 2 feet from keyboard when beer comes into the mix :p

It depends man, he may have been pressured to punish someone but since things escalated so fast he could not pin it down to one person. Perhaps he punished both parties to be both fair and harsh.

I think it's good that he was ruthless though. They can't allow fighting in Rugby, that scuffle put everyone on edge, even the people in the stadium.
 
Reds playing for the bulls. When they play us, they roll over and die. When they need to beat the chiefs to get Bulls top of the log, they do it.


Whoohoo!

Off field yellow means that the player must go to his room for 10 minutes and think about what he has done.
 
It really pisses me off that Morahan didn't get the yellow that he should have. Why the hell can't referees take 5 seconds to ask the TMO, or just look at the freakin' huge screen. You could clearly see who the offender was. :mad:

He'll get sent to his room for 10 minutes off field as well...

Actually, methinks that one might deserve a little rest.
 
When I was sitting in the stands alone, there was an elderly couple who came to sit next to me and I heard them say they were in the wrong seats and mentioned my number. I pretended to not hear them as I knew I was in the right seat but at the time did not have the card with me to prove it. Halfway during the game another young couple came to sit where the old couple were sitting and once again he mentioned to them and his wife that they were in the wrong seats and should be in my seat which was 228. By this time my family were back so I told my daughter to make sure we in the right seats as these old folk have now twice mentioned that they should be in our seats. We took out the card and yes I was in the right seat so I politely showed them my card. The old man, quite abruptly after seeing the number 228 on the card, said "yes but what is the row?", taking out his card. I politely showed him it was row C. He then brought out his card which was in fact 228 in row G. I looked at him and said "yes YOU are in the wrong seats". He was taken aback when I pointed this out to him on his card and he quickly blamed his failing eyesight and moved out of our row.
 
I had a terrible weekend on Superbru and still managed to climb in every single pool. :wtf:

I had the Highlanders, Crusaders, and Reds game wrong.

Same here (although being top of 3 pools I am in I could not climb :o:p)

I must say that I doubt the Bulls will be able to win both their remaining fixtures overseas and I will be happy if we could win one more from the two.

The stormers got a bit of a wake-up call but I can not see them just rolling over and giving it away.

I am really looking forward to the Bulls vs Stormers game come 02 June, but I feel that it will feature to very tired sides as the Bulls play the Chiefs, and the Stormers the Sharks the weekend before the clash...
