@BoishaaiPa: Pity we couldn’t have claimed the Currie Cup in a similar fashion
@BoishaaiPa: Party pooper you did not ask for permission to rain on the KZN parade :grin: Corrected

2 KZN – Highways 6.50
3 Binneland Bende 6.38
5 Eastern Cape 5.50
6 KZN – Pmb 5.47

I am watching you Beet!..
@beet: Jis!..These KZN okes are skelm..look how Beet neatly slotted Paarlbok into the KZN region to boost them to second spot…Paarlbok is from Paarl and the Wes Kaap!
@beet: OK – see from origin not current location. MC is fine
@beet: You got me in the KZN Highway area?
@Andre T: i will go first
Anybody who predicted a Wallaby win over the French should go and see a plastic surgeon immediately to have a automatic mute panic button implanted where there aren’t any disfuntional bulges.
@CyndiAtRugby: Your participation saved me from extreme embarrassment.Thank you so much! Apart from Ruan Pienaar and the French spoiling my prediction, I dont even have an excuse. I just hope that my bruised ego recovers soon.
@CyndiAtRugby: Or a loosie.
@BOG: Bad start, I will try harder
I think I’m still recovering from the shock of being made a prop … I guess it could be worse, I could have been called the hooker :smile:
Slow start…but watch this space!
@Rugger fan: Okay thanks. It is sorted above. :smile:
@beet: Yep
@Rugger fan: Are you in our pool Rugger fan?
Was looking good after picking the Argies – but then came the Aussies.
I thought nthe french only beat the ABs?
Goodness me, Id be lucky to be on the bench for the next encounter.
@star: I gotta add that anyone who picked Arg to handle Wales missed out on a great opportunity to cash in on their luck at a nearby casino. The margin achieved by France was a surprise, the home win not so much.
Who would have picked France to drill the Aussies and the Argies to roll the 5 Nation champions at home.Come on 22 point margin by the Kiwis today.
@QC86: hooker, I’d say am surprised but am not
@GreenBlooded: hopefully they can donner Scots by 13 points
@Grasshopper: Okay I will adjust the KZN – Durban denominator for this round, so you also get to help the KZN – Dbn climb the rankings. Rem: big game today.
OK, let me actually play this thing and not just register….need to remind myself to play otherwise I will never make the starting line up
The beauty of SuperBru is that the point scoring system could mean this weekend’s reserve is next weekend’s frontrow player. It’s all about luck.
@Ludz: It sure was. I think we can safely assume that NZ will donner Scotland today – although the way things went yesterday I guess nothing is guaranteed.
I’m worried!! Where is Andre T?? He posted 235 comments here in his first week and now has vannished.
I have to say 1st weekend in Superbru ever was absolutely terrible
I am trying my best not to win it cause that xango juice is probably sponsored by paulroospa and he will definatly spike mine!
Still early days…have no idea of current form, but the bike not looking good…
Hmmm so I got all my results right so far but my margins were quite wrong which means I’m currently joint 6th…
@CyndiAtRugby: Looking at your first three scores, I see what you mean
My arm has been duly twisted and I have signed up – I thought I would join to make sure that none of the male egos gets bruised by being in last place
Gonna be more than 50 at FT. 47-5 now.
Eish!!sid England by 12 but Fiji is disappointing me being 25-0 down at HT!!
Not a good start for me
Seems like I was too kind to Fiji with my 22-0 down pick. They are 25-0 down at HT
Fashionably late, I’m in but out of the matchday 22! I’ll do the oranges at half-time and beers at the end…
Welcome Paarlbok who becomes player #22 and helps complete our Northern Suburbs representation.
@star: the listing is alphademic (combo of academic and alphabetic. You and All Black will soon be reunited on the reserve bench (possie 16-22)
@Ludz: looking at some of my picks i should maybe start in the seconds
@QC86: 2 Queenians in the team, they simply can’t go wrong :cool:
star studded,could be a bit of a stret ch
Cyndi and NW_Knight are regualar players – Cyndi play’s in our club pool. I’ll twist her arm.
Carbon is also a Maritzburg College lad.
@ Beet- I am not sure why you put AB at 1 and me at 21. Is this to keep us love birds apart or you do have zero faith in me?I am also a bit worried about the College boys packing the team to hedge their bets.Nothing changes it seems. So long as I beat Bog( 50 shades of grey) I will be happy. :
Let the games begin!
