    Come one Simon, last week this time, whenever you guys reported on the WP Sharks game,we couldn’t hear enough about the “mouthwatering top-of-the-table clash”. Need I remind you that this is also a top-of-the-table clash? Or is it only mouthwatering when the Cape Hoop-hoops are in it? If we don’t have adjectival equality, what do we really have?
