I don't mind a bit of currie cup but usually only if there is nothing else is on sport wise. Prefer to focus on local stuff before heading overseas

WP monstered the Bulls!! yeah baby
Bobo was a terrorist! awesome!! he burnt holes all over the bulls rather impressive defence! (i know that sounds contradictory but it seemed he was the only one able to consistantly get over the gain line untill the 75th minute when the flood gates opened!)
