For interest sake.. the first try scorer for the Sharks was Keegan Daniel, and he is sitting at 40/1!!!!
Dries at shorter odds of scoring the first try than Lwazi? That’s crazy…
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 1) : 40/1 odds of Keegan scoring the first try? These okes are crazy…
Rich, It’s got to be worth putting a couple of bucks on that one…
@robdylan (Comment 3) :
Do you want me to Rob? Surely Lwazi and Keegan and Kanko are worth a little punt?

@Morné (Comment 5) :
Would you like odds for all those games? hehe..
Its going to be awesome!!
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 4) : I would split R100 between Keegan, Hoff and Lwazi
@robdylan (Comment 8) :
R30 each.. Will do sir..
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 9) : good lad
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 9) : so just to make sure I understand… R30 at 40/1 returns R1230?
@robdylan (Comment 11) :
Spot on.. hehe.. seems so easy hey?
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 12) : Imagine how unhappy you are going to be when Adriaan Fondse or Willem De Waal cross the chalk for that first try
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 13) :
I know.. Or even worse.. Bryan Bloody Habana
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 14) : I would not mind Ricki wobbling over.
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 15) : Ricky better bring his own chalk to make it a tad easier for him
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 13) :
Not as unhappy as you are gonna be when Oupa Stef steps over JDV’s broken body to accept the Currie Cup.
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 13) :
I think it will be Ricky ‘The LEGEND’ Januarie!!
@wpw (Comment 18) :
Only if “The LEGEND” is the name of the pie-shop sponsoring his obese ass.
@Big Fish (Comment 19) : someone’s in full cry today!
@robdylan (Comment 20) :
Just finished my last MBA lecture EVER!!!
@Big Fish (Comment 19) :
@Big Fish (Comment 19) : Think Willem Alberts found the franchise in Durban
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 23) :
BEEEEG difference between fat and muscle…
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 23) :
Come on, even your deluded toenail-painting ass knows that Alberts is a beast.
@Morné (Comment 5) : That Toulouse vs Toulon game is going to be a cracker. Go Toulouse!!!
@Big Fish (Comment 25) :
Does he use Justin Biebers new nail polish range??
@Big Fish (Comment 25) : An overweight beast, dude he is fat.
@Queen Shark Ice Angel (Comment 27) :
Only if it comes in pretty pink.
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 28) :
Are you high already?
Been sniffing your nail polish remover have you?
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 28) :
Nah…I touched it…no fat…
@Big Fish (Comment 29) : Ai ja
Man there are some cool bets and odds in there.
I should become a punter when I retire.
@wpw (Comment 18) :
I would say Legend in a lunchbox but I can’t because Robbie “Deon kayser het my gevang” Fleck already has claim to THAT title and 2ndly because i don’t think Ricky would fit in ANYONES lunchbox.
@Big Fish (Comment 29) : You still having that get together at your place tomorrow?
Pakistan batting btw.
@Pokkel (Comment 34) :
Yeah: on like a scone.
All the more rede the Sharks must win!
@Big Fish (Comment 36) : You’re going to have so much fun with all the cry baby wp fans
@Pokkel (Comment 37) :
Is dit so??
Ek huil nogals net as dit kos betref!!
@Pokkel (Comment 37) :
@wpw (Comment 38) :
I’m buying extra tissues so he can cry his heart out.
@wpw (Comment 38) : @Big Fish (Comment 39) : Cheers all. Enjoy the rugby.
Sharks forever!!!!!
I reckon Keegan as first try scorer is a cracking bet!! I love betting on CC rugby here in the UK because clearly some of the punters don’t have a clue what they are betting on and I can clean up
I’m also on Under 47.5 points as I expect it to be a tight final with not many tries. What are the odds in SA for U 47.5?
