The most entertaining part of the match was the little people handing out drinks and snacks there at the end.

Horrible game.

What on earth has happened to them? Its like all of a sudden they haven't played rugby for the past 10 years. Sheesh.

The whole standard of all the CC teams has sunk immeasurably since the RWC began. Schoolboys play better...

The good news is that they will have a lot of players returning for the last round and ko's.

53-9 Shows you how much having a couple/or lack of Springboks in your team can do for the scoreline

Home semi! :D

Interesting to see the impact a few boks have to a team. The teams were evenly matched for most of the first half, and when we brought on Alberts and Bismarck we became too powerful for the Lions. I'm impressed with Deysels continued upward performance at lock. The Lions play excellent rugby though and I wish them the best against WP. They do deserve a final.

I'm a bit worried for next week - Cheetahs v Sharks is always a cracker and you can never predict a winner. I suspect we'll start with the first team.

And possibly home final if WP takes the Lions out. Remember WP have several Boks back at their disposal and I am sure they'll be on the field to get a spot in the final. I feel for the Lions.

Just what I'm thinking. The timing of returning players is awesome. Some good semis in the offing :)

Ooh a Sharks v WP final at Kings Park would be magical! A repeat of last year! I would really like to see the Lions get into the final due to the way they've played this season (and because they are long overdue for some sort of gratification), but on the other hand a final at Kings Park would be great! As a Sharks supporter I can't support WP either :eek: :D

Whatever happens we'll be seeing some good rugby over the next 2 weekends.

I predict that our Sharks should see off the Cheetahs, PROVIDED we don't give them or their backs any ball to play with. Same thing applies if we get into a final against either the Lions or WP. If we dominate up front and retain possession, the sheer muscle of the Sharks will see them win the cup again.

Of course, we don't know if the Lions were sandbagging in last weekend's game either...

Funny how things go. I seem to remember Natal being given a huge bunt by the Blue Bulls 2 weeks before they played them in a final back in 1990. Hopefully history doesn't repeat itself with the Lions in a similar position!
