FRIDAY:
======
Highlanders VS Sharks - I'm going out on a limb and picking the Highlanders. The Sharks have not impressed me this season. How much longer will there luck hold....and is young Mr Steyn going to pass the ball?
Have you been wathcing rugby this season?
The Hurricanes have only won 1 game, and that was against the wooden spoon Lions.
The Sharks beating the Blues wasn't luck.
Sure, we were lucky to come away with the draw last week, but you surely can't really believe that they are second on the log by luck, and that the Highlanders will get some magic together and beat them?
It's a Million-to-one shot, but it just might work.......
Yes, I have.....however, I am also a natural pessimist.

So far the game is going ok although the Highlanders are more dangerous with the ball. Sharks need to pick up the performance or they might get hit head-on with a Highlander train in the second half :O
The Sharks were bad in the first half but I must say that they played very good in the second half. It isn't easy to play any New Zealand team in New Zealand. We missed kicks where as their kicker missed only one kick I think.. We had opportunities to score more tries..
At the end we were lucky to win but from the second half performance we deserved to win the game.
I don't know so much about them stepping it up though....but that's just me.
I have noticed a frightful number of handling errors in the games I have watched.....
Just you wait
Maybe the sharks like to provide us fans with drama. 'Cause whether we play a rubbish side like the Lions, or the Highlanders, we win by a few measly points. When we play a Great side, like the blues, we STILL win.
But I really hope this game was a wake-up call for them. That they need to now, "haal uit en wys" (is there an english version of this expression?)

if your surname is Van der Walt you will probably say "take out and show"
guess when we have load shedding
"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Yeah it's like they are taking it slightly easier because if you peak too early you will fade out towards the end when it counts so this is definitely a good thing that the Sharks havn't performed in their last 2 games because now there is no more slacking and bunjee jumping they have to sit down and work on a few things which could result in a very strong run towards the Semis and hopefully Finals.
On the sunnier side of things the Stormers are doing good I havn't checked the log but from what I see the stormers may benefit from the Western Force's loss earlier
I am a guy so please people stop sending me these shady pm's and start playing computer games or bodybuilding. Forums aren't a good place to get chicks the gym is...
One thing that really annoys me in the Super 14 is those damn Kiwi commentators. They are pretty much as corrupt as Mugabe. If they ref makes a bad call advantaging them they say "yeah good call" but if he makes the correct call advantaging us they comment "terrible call".
They one New Zealand team passes the ball like a meter and a half forward the ref blows it and they starting chirping his "eyesight"
You guys noticed those idiots?
And the Ausie commentators are even worse....
