Because I is a Engelsman. And we have 25 people at my place so there were sufficient oooohs and aaaahs...

And HOLY MARTHA, if I have to listen to another Aussie commentator within my lifetime it will be too soon. We watched the second half on mute and provided our own commentary! The Tahs crowd were pretty aweful as well when it came to the line-outs and Steyn's penalty. It happens in SA too but they took it overboard!
Sharks played like the Stormers did last week, at least the Stormers managed to win.
Crusaders woulda whipped them anyway.
Sucks that Muir had more of his mind on the Boks than he did on the Sharks, wtf was he thinking 'experimenting' with useless players in a semi anyway! .... I heard rumours that he and AJ had a falling out? Man I'm sick of these Sharks coaches thinking they're everything and a packet of chips. I just hope Plumtree doesn't take the same route![]()
"It did not help us to lose AJ Venter an hour before kickoff because of a thumb injury as that limited our lineout options," Muir said. "We then gambled on Epi Taione, figuring that he might be an ace up our sleeve and that he could give us some momentum and counter the power of their back three," Muir said.
"It did not come off. Perhaps the lack of match practice and fitness took its toll (the Tongan has barely played in eight weeks) and I take responsibility for that call."
One wonders what the full situation was with Venter. Conspiracy theorists might wonder if he was making a silent protest after being told that he would not be offered a contract for the Currie Cup and next year's Super 14, forcing him to sign a contract for that period with Western Province and bringing to an unfortunate end his nine-year career with the Sharks.
The 11 Sharks added to national squad: BJ Botha, Bismarck du Plessis, Adrian Jacobs, Ryan Kankowski, Beast Mtarirawa, Johann Muller, Waylon Murray, Odwa Ndungane, Ruan Pienaar, JP Pietersen, Frans Steyn
