Whiteley's back for the Lions, should add some firepower.

When I've finished rolling in the grass I'm going to go in the house

When's market day ?

Kinda cycling related, it will be used to ferry my bikes around.

Crunch will be this weekend and whether his gamble paid off, the "A" team comprises mostly of the same players that did not outshine when playing the Kings. Having rested his "A" team and they still lose to the Crusaders he will have to reflect his decision.

Played against each other 18 times with the Crusaders winning 14, cant see them beating the Crusaders. Gamble by Ackerman to play a "B" side against the Jaguars but there was a danger of travel fatigue. With the loss so does our chance of playing the Sharks in the QF instead.

When will it end, every few months a new model comes out, buy it only for a new model to appear with more functionality. Very costly to keep up to date.

The 65K road race has a batch start for MTB'ers. In fairness the MTB race should have a batch start for road bikes

Ridden a number of trails around Carnival , if planned right the MTB can include some single track, climbs and fast descents.

My neighbors are huge Bulls fan, whenever they play they fly the Bulls flag, If they win there's usually a huge celebration going on till late. To irritate him whenever they lose I go into the garden and blow my vuvuzella.

Yes, plus bonus point

Weekends game is going to be a cracker, Lions vs Sharks, both teams have had the harder draw in that they are paired with NZ teams whereas the others are playing Aus teams. Lions should get the victory playing at home but not discounting the Sharks especially after they demolished the Hurricanes who beat the Lions.

Plenty of work to do. Ireland at its strongest playing in the 6 nations only manged 2 wins. A weaker Irish team come out and give us a real run for our money, dominating us and nearly winning the series.

Not having possession means more tackles to be made, this can be very energy consuming.

Tense finish, If not for Fafs try scoring tackle the Irish could have taken it. % possession is a huge concern.

Cape Town - SANZAAR has announced that the first ever Rugby Championship Test will be staged in London this year. READ: Bonus point change for Rugby Championship This comes after SANZAAR on Thursday announced the match schedule and kick-off times for the Rugby Championship. It will for the first time include a match played at Twickenham Stadium on October 8 between Argentina and 2015 Championship winners Australia. This is a nominated home match for Argentina who will play their other home matches in Salta and Buenos Aires. The Twickenham match will be the final game of the Championship and could have a huge bearing on the outcome of the tournament. Argentina will be keen to reverse their loss to the Wallabies at the same venue in the 2015 Rugby World Cup semi-final. The Rugby Championship will be played across six weekends/rounds and will also for the first time include a match at Mbombela Stadium, Nelspruit, South Africa. “SANZAAR is delighted to be playing in two new cities this year with Mbombela Stadium, Nelspruit and Twickenham in London hosting Championship matches,” said SANZAAR CEO, Andy Marinos http://www.sport24.co.za/Rugby/rugby-championship-clash-in-london-20160623

Ackerman is coach of SA "A" yes, but as mentioned by Lions players he has a different coaching style and this becomes evident in how the Lions play, what Ackerman cannot do on such a short space take a liquorice all sorts and make them Lions.

Nuff said. Lions stars rescue Boks What a comeback! The Springboks were down and out, but a clutch of Lions substitutes inspired the home side to an incredible 32-26 victory over Ireland at Ellis Park on Saturday. http://www.iol.co.za/sport/rugby/springboks/lions-stars-rescue-boks-2036099

Still work to be done but better 2nd half.

Whitely you beut. Go Lions Springboks Jantjies appears to have left his kicking boots at home.

Missed tackles, poor scrumming, poor line calling, errors and more errors.

Cape Town - An Apartheid-era Springbok has called for a boycott of South African Rugby . Former Bok prop Ockie Oosthuize took to Facebook, asking “shareholders, players, rugby supporters, sponsors, etc.” to “withdraw their participation, attendance and involvement from the game”. http://www.iol.co.za/sport/rugby/springboks/its-time-to-boycott-sa-rugby-2034811
