Well, Spies did start his career on the wing for the Bulls.

STORMERS!!!!!!

Yeah, but we played kark.

 

[KOPITE]

Yeah, but we played kark.

so what if we play kark. a win is a win in the group stages. if you loose in the play-offs you out. i would rather play kark now then in the semis and final

We've been playing pretty kark for a while now... You're right, a win is a win, but I'm worried about the semis/finals. We seem to lack that killer instinct.

Gawd, the most dreary kak was just 'played' ..... that's 80 minutes I can't get back.

Well then, maybe the Lions win helped ease your pain. So chuffed they won. Almost threw it away though.

Sheezuz that Stormers game drove me to drink. That was some of the most boring rugby I've had to put myself through in ages....

 

[Vox Populi Vox Dei]

To be fair, the conditions weren't the best for playing exciting rugby.

It was clearly very wet and cold.

 

[APoc184]

Was this a try or not for the Rebels' James Hilgendorf? The TMO said yes.

I honestly couldn't see from the Media Box at Ellispark but the fans and Twitter comments made it clear that they did not agree with the TMO decision.

 

[Creag]

My first look at this last night was no try. But it is possible I am biased.

 

[SinghDude]

Yeah...

Look like a knock-on.

Not sure why the TMO ruled otherwise.

 

[BobsLawnService]

....... wah wah wah hey

I'm more than happy to be wrong in this case.

 

[Badprop_za]

Even the commentators said it was not a try. I am also not biased to make a call. NO TRY :twisted:

I am just glad that the try did not decide the final outcome....

 

[GreGorGy]

Damn Bulls. Had to console myself with random sex to get over it (a fking for a fking).

Dammit.

DAMN DAMN DAMN!

Actually, a funny thing did happen. After the loss, I was on Guinness # 4 (ordinarily, I woulda cleared 5 during a game but this one had me making it halfway through the forth by the end). So, I left the pub and went to corner house and had a Windhoek Light. Which I couldn't finish (too angry!) so I switched to Cream Soda. And Coke. And by 2am, I was sober. The cops were all over the place bumping people up for bribes. They searched me, searched my car, cursed and walked away.

 

[DJ...]

And we all know how peeved some Blou Bulle get when hit up for a bribe...:erm:

 

[W.Salie]

This weekend Super Rugby is going to be interesting if Crusaders Lose to the Force (not a chance that will happen then it would be between the Bulls and the Sharks to go into the QF. However if the Sharks gets a BP they will pass the Bulls but the chances of the Bulls not getting a BP against the Lions is slim and on the other hand the Sharks has a mountain to climb against the Cheetahs

That said I say this is how the log will look at the end of this weekend
1. Stormers or Chiefs
2. Stormers or Chiefs
3. Brumbies
4. Crusaders
5. Bulls
6. Sharks

From the stories I have heard of abuse of power, it is no wonder. Now, personally, I'd rather set bees on them than Bees.

Mmm - I agree. Top spot really is the only variable the way I see it.

 

[Creag]

Brilliant result for the Stormers, who now just needs a win tomorrow to finish top of the overall log.

Full time score: Hurricanes 28 - 25 Chiefs

 

[Rosaudio]

Excellent
