My Vipers team will snotklap the Sharkies

So the Sharks have found their voice. Took them long enough. Who cares what big names they have? What has Alberts done this season? What has any of the much vaunted pack done? I’d like to see how much penalties Bissie and co give away at the sheer frustration of being tackled to shreds.

Can the Stormers do the double over the weaklings at the Aquarium? Why wouldn’t they? Watch the Sharks as they get tackled into oblivion. It will once again prove bittersweet for the Stormers as they make it four from four over the perennial pretenders.

The Sharks supporters better keep their referee excuses handy for Saturday. It will be all they could use as an excuse after the final whistle, after the mighty Stormers had ripped their teams spines out there @sses!

Loftus Versfeld, the legendary fortress of the Blue Bulls Company will go pink when the home team play in their alternative very-berry coloured match kits in their Vodacom Super Rugby clash against the DHL Stormers. A sold out capacity crowd of 50 000 is a given which will most certainly bode well for campaign beneficiaries the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA).

With nearly 3 million supporters in South Africa, along with the highest viewership ratings for Super Rugby matches in 2012 among all the South African franchises, the Vodacom Bulls will be using their reach and influence to raise awareness and funds for their service to the public and all affected by cancer across the country.

Throughout the next two weeks, the Vodacom Bulls will be calling on all South Africans to make a donation, while ticket holders are encouraged to dress in pink to show their support for the “Get Your Pink On” campaign. Sponsors Vodacom will donate R20 000 for every try scored by the 2010 Super 14 champions, while CANSA will provide a mobile health unit for clinical breast exams and skin examinations within Loftus Versfeld on match day. Ticket holders can also get their heads sprayed in pink, blue, white and black (R20 per head) at six ‘Sprayathon” stations inside the stadium.

Barend van Graan, Blue Bulls Company CEO, is confident that their appeal to their valued supporters will be the catalyst in raising the bar of generosity in South Africa.

“Our fans have taken well to our very berry fuschia coloured kit. For this campaign we have embraced the colour pink as we join hands with CANSA and call on all our players, supporters, sponsors, suite owners and the general public to take part in the Get Your Pink On campaign and be part of this fundraising and awareness drive. With the largest fan base in South Africa, the highest viewership figures in Vodacom Super Rugby this season as well as a significant growth on our social media platforms, I am confident that the Get Your Pink On campaign will be a resounding success.”

The Vodacom Bulls versus the DHL Stormers match is regarded as the hottest ticket in town and fans are encouraged to get their hands on the remaining tickets on sale. To support CANSA in the fight against cancer, sms 30100 or go to http://www.getyourpinkon.co.za to make an online donation. Valid ticket holders stand a chance of winning one of seven Vodacom Bulls jerseys (numbers 16 to 22) at halftime to be presented by the Bulls babes to the “best dressed” supporters in the stadium. And, anyone who makes a donation will be in line to win one of 15 official jerseys autographed by the entire 2012 Vodacom Bulls team.

Sue Janse van Rensburg, CANSA CEO, expressed her gratitude to the Vodacom Bulls for providing a platform in rugby to spread the message on the importance of early detection of cancer.

“We want to thank the Vodacom Bulls for this incredible initiative in helping us to reach as many people as we can, while spreading the message that cancer can be treated more effectively when detected early, while further raising much needed funds to roll out our care and support programmes to those affected by cancer.”

so it’s not like he hasn’t tried to get most of the guys being mentioned…

clever is a very good player… think he’d be great as a stop-gap for a few games…

as someone said earlier… our oldest loosie at the mo is 22… our most experienced is 20…!!

and our vodacom guys will get their breaks there’s no doubt… i don;t think allister has to answer to criticism of NOT bringing youngsters through… our average age when world out earlier in the season is 23…

i hope we get clever…!!

Come 9pm Saturday evening, it will all end in tears.

MARK THESE WORDS.

Good to catch up again.

Out of here now.

Yip think who wins it on Saturday will only win by a few. Hope it is my Sharks…

So your Hearts won on Saturday. Congrats Jock.

I missed Saturdays games and still haven’t seen the highlights (not even seen Hearts beating Hibs in the cup final yet ) but a great result for the Sharks in a potentially banana skin slip up game, that’s for sure. So I reckon the Sharks will take this one with hopefully a BP for us the most I’m expecting out of it, if that actually.

Still taken the Stormers on Bru though, probably why I’m having a bad competition

Better hurry up and get that dstv two big games coming up for your Stormers. Sharks and Bulls next.

Think it will be a bloody tough battle on Saturday. Not gonna be easy. Hope my sharks can win this one.

Just hoping no injuries as the Bok/England tests is just around the corner.

Yeah, probably with a snipers rifle from 500m away, big mouth
