I am still not convinced about Juan Hernandez in the Sharks line up. Did not the Sharks make hard work with the Leopards when he was on?
Happy Happy to Millisa
@PhillipGibb (Comment 1) :
didn’t see the game but Monty is on the roll so wouldn’t mind introducing the man from the bench.
I am still not convinced why is he here in the first place.
@rekinek (Comment 2) : because at the start of the Currie Cup we didn’t have a flyhalf. You DID see Monty against the Lions, right?
@robdylan (Comment 3) : I did. what’s the point of your question ?
@robdylan (Comment 3) : i always thought that Monty would be better at FB, but he has always been a FL option in addition to Guy Cronje and Len (who is nobody knows where).
@rekinek (Comment 5) :
And “nobody” is saying nothing…
@Prof. Ice Babe(Super Girl) (Comment 6) : and we thought “nobody” was FBfriend
@rekinek (Comment 7) :
eh?
I’m actually working in an office today… participation will, alas, be limited.
Nobody had sent me an email asking about the Len affair… guss they’re not THAT interested after all
@robdylan (Comment 9) : ??? What affair????
@robdylan (Comment 9) :
I wanted to..
but did not want to put you on the spot…
Hang on!!
Happy Birthday Millisa, wherever you are, hope all is well with you and the family.

It does feel good to truly say we are the best in the world! We are working on a great piece to commemorate bein Tri-Nations champions (or am I being too windgat here!?) Go to http://www.thepitch.co.za for more information.
The Pitch launched in July 2009 as a new marketing portal for an old business. The practice of collecting sporting memorabilia is as old as the sporting fraternity, but for some it is much more than just a once off occasion. We have been collecting sporting goods for the last 30 years and what started out as a passion has grown over the years into a small business with select customers and word of mouth marketing. At The Pitch our mission is simple. We love sport and we aim to put a larger number of sports fans and memorabilia collectors in touch with what we have built up over the years.
Own great moments!
