Tri Nations 7

[Steve]

7.South Africa v Australia: Brisbane: Sat 5 Sep 20:05 (local time)

Looks like the Aussies are going back to the drawing board so I will give them an outside chance. But then again they have a point to prove. Go Bokke!!!!!!!!!!

[Howard Neill]

The local (Fish Hoek) Church of England will be packing them in. They have a roadside banner, which reads, "Tri Nations on the Big Screen on Saturday".

Will the guys be allowed to take their beers? :smiley2:

Aussie have nothing left to lose and the Bokke dont HAVE to win it... methinks the bokke will field a lower strength side and lose by 12...

[pennymac]

Bokke all the way

[barto11]

Team news: Bekker and Pieterson sent home with injuries, Bekker with a frot shoulder, and JP with a buggered hammie...no replacements have been called up which will mean Danie Rossouw will (hopefully) be fit to provide cover at lock and either Frans Steyn/ Adi Jacobs/ Odwa Ndungane to provide cover on the wing

[Angelshark]

If Frans Steyn gets a hair cut that will make him faster than Habana. And he could kick straight too.

[biffon]

i hear Habana is in doubt as well

[Tricky Nicky]

I doubt they will field a weaker side given what happened against the Lions - GO BOKKE!!! :smiley20:

[barto11]

Sides have been announced...Ndungane in for Pieterson (what's that you say, a common sense decision from Div and hell hasn't frozen over yet??) and Russouw takes Bekker's place on the bench...

For the Wallabies, Barnes is back and Ashley-Cooper has shifted out 1, Mitchell back for Hynes and Will Genia and David Pocock (up the zimbo!!!) get their 1st 3N starts

just to keep you posted - after a shyte start on super bru i have snaffled the yellow cap for two consecutive weeks.... Top spot here i come!

Game 7: Australia 21 - 6 South Africa

[Azieko N'daba]

A disappointing result

[boards]

and i have the yellow cap 3 weeks in a row..... BARTO come to me for all rugby intel buddy!

[joemac]

Well done aussie. First time in my life I have barracked for aussie!

[pennymac]

it looked like everyone at zimfest was going for Aussie too!
They had the game up on a couple of big screens (seeing as it was held at a rugby club and all that)

[biffon]

haha the one week i dont make a pick on superbru and my team wins!! Karma baby!

Penny i disagree... on several occasions when the Saffa's got the ball the roar was SUBSTANTIALLY louder.. methinks we had a few yellow bellied fence-sitters too.. " We support SA but only when they're winning"

didnt see you there.. probably because we don't know what each other look like :D

[pennymac]

LOL, yes, I think that was the main problem.
I couldn't have predicted that I'd be wearing my warmest winter woolies either. I did look out for your "I got naked with bob" t-shirt, but I guess you were wearing your winter woolies too.
Did you get any photos of the "maid"? Did he win the best dressed? He was the funniest.

[biffon]

there were a couple of
Nannies yeah and the dood with the teddy on the back won it.. he was either very brave.... or gay :D
