So when Willie leaves we will look around for a replacement? I thinks we should get Bothma to stay and take that place get du preez ready for the nr 8 jersey. Comment 19, posted at 20.05.15 17:12:56 by coolfusion

Well most of the team defended much better. I just don’t know about JP he still hasn’t come to the party. Comment 20, posted at 20.05.15 17:14:16 by coolfusion

@pastorshark (Comment 25) : I said better, not great. I’m not expecting a day and night turnaround in a match or two. But I am looking at consistent improvent. If we continue improving we should see some good form by the 3rd or 4th game in cc. Depending of course on what rwc does to our continuity. Comment 30, posted at 21.05.15 06:46:39 by coolfusion

@Salmonoid the Subtle (Comment 35) : The only thing they are good for is Supersport. Comment 36, posted at 21.05.15 14:56:41 by Ben

@Ben (Comment 36) : True, and they hold a whole nation of rugby lovers to ransom with supersport channel / bouget. Blood suckers. Comment 37, posted at 21.05.15 15:02:35 by Salmonoid the Subtle

@Salmonoid the Subtle (Comment 37) : What sport channels does it have and how much does it cost? Comment 38, posted at 21.05.15 15:26:19 by Ben

@Ben (Comment 38) : I’m guessing channel 200 and 204. Comment 39, posted at 21.05.15 15:26:43 by Ben

But I must say I enjoyed Homicide Hunter on the CI channel while I was there. Comment 40, posted at 21.05.15 15:29:53 by Ben

@Ben (Comment 38) : R600.00 + per month. Not sure how many but at least 7 of which most are for football. Themain channel (201) shows live and re runs of rugby and lots of golf. 202 shows cricket. One can normally scratch up something watchable if really bored. I saw this crazy thing on CI this morning where a trespassing hunter just mowed down 7 other hunters who happened to point him off their land. Americans should stick to 7s rugby and leave the guns at their local supermarkets. Comment 41, posted at 21.05.15 17:09:07 by Salmonoid the Subtle

@Salmonoid the Subtle (Comment 41) : Haha, yeah I know the channels. Seems like we weren’t on the same page there. Thought you were talking about something like DSTV Compact where you pay R320 a month and the only sport channels you get are SS Blitz, SS3, SS4, SS9 and SS Select. It’s okay if you’re a football fan only but rugby lovers are forced to pay the premium price to be able to view rugby. Comment 42, posted at 21.05.15 17:55:09 by Ben

The source of the trouble is in the 2nd amendment: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” And that’s the whole damn thing. The gun nuts focus on.”.. the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed” and the anti gun nuts prefer…”A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State….” At least they’re not shooting at each other, yet. Meanwhile the criminals, bikers, hunters, PSTD sufferers and assorted nut cases are causing mayhem enough. Just this week I was visiting a small rural town. The place should be as safe and idyllic as can be, but instead everyone owns troves of guns they keep at the ready for defence against imaginary threats,……. such as the old man with alzheimer’s shot recently for acting “strange” whilst wandering onto the wrong piece of land. Comment 43, posted at 22.05.15 00:23:23 by fyndraai

@fyndraai (Comment 43) : You can’t look at the amendment by itself without the supreme court rulings regarding the amendment. You are referring to the collective rights versus individual rights issue. The collective rights people say that the states have the right to regulate and ban firearms without constitutional violation, the individual rights people say each individual has the right to have firearms. There are two significant supreme court hearings, one in 1939 (USA vs Miller) where the court found that congress could regulate a sawed off shotgun in interstate commerce, taking a collective rights stand. In 2008 (District of Columbia vs Heller) the court ruled that the Washington DC handgun ban was unconstitutional. The majority wrote that in US vs Miller there was an exceptional circumstance and that it did not in any way infringe on individual rights to have firearms. This is the most recent ruling and hence law of the land in the USA, and that is individuals do indeed have the right to have firearms; until the Supreme Court rules differently. Comment 44, posted at 22.05.15 05:40:26 by Dancing Bear

@Dancing Bear (Comment 44) : They have also ruled that preventing certain groups of people from possessing guns, like convicted felons and minors, is constitutional. Comment 45, posted at 22.05.15 05:43:11 by Dancing Bear

The Bulls have got off to a brilliant start. Pollard just missed his second kick, but it is still 3-15 to the Bulls after 19 mins… Comment 48, posted at 22.05.15 10:01:23 by pastorshark

The Chief are making a lot of very silly mistakes, though, almost all leading directly to points… Comment 49, posted at 22.05.15 10:02:18 by pastorshark

@pastorshark (Comment 48) : Trust the Bulls to mess up Superbru picks on a Friday morning lol Comment 52, posted at 22.05.15 10:05:21 by RedSharkUtd82

There was a moment there that kind of proves a bugbear of mine…Serfontein was shoulder charged after passing the ball…the ref didn’t see it…and the hometown producer chose not to show a replay of it, despite Serfontein requiring treatment. Maybe I’m cynical, but I think the producer chose not to show it because he didn’t want the ref to change his decision. They really need to address what a ref ends up deciding due to what a hometown producer decides to show or not to show!! Comment 53, posted at 22.05.15 10:08:22 by pastorshark

@RedSharkUtd82 (Comment 52) : It would definitely mess up my pick! Comment 54, posted at 22.05.15 10:08:53 by pastorshark

Four turnovers back and forth…and great running by the Chiefs leads to a Heem try in the corner…the conversion is a shocker and it is 15-15 after 29 minutes… Comment 59, posted at 22.05.15 10:12:19 by pastorshark

Another great break by Pulu, but he catches a speed wobble and his pass is inacccurate… Comment 63, posted at 22.05.15 10:15:00 by pastorshark

Wonderful kick by Paige…and the pressure put on the Chiefs lineout leads to a pretty silly quick throw…the Bulls attack but the Chiefs are saved by a breakdown penalty… Comment 64, posted at 22.05.15 10:16:32 by pastorshark

Entertaining half of rugby though…5 mins to go to halftime… Comment 65, posted at 22.05.15 10:17:24 by pastorshark
