Lambie kicks Sharks to victory
2 Mar 2013
The Sharks proved the more physical to edge the Stormers at Kings Park.
The hosts beat the Stormers 12 – 6 after the match was scoreless at half time.
The match was hyped to be great viewing pleasure, but what followed was a disappointing show of what South African rugby has become. Four penalties beat two penalties as neither team looked close to getting over the tryline.
The first half was an error strewn kicking match in which both flyhalves attempted to gain the upper hand with clever kicks into space, but neither succeeded in putting their flyers away. Gio Aplon had the best opportunity of the half, but coughed up a cross kick, that could have been a five pointer had he held on.
After no points in the opening fourty, the second half got off to a flying start as Lambie and Pietersen exchanged penalties in first five minutes after the break. Another penalty each kept the game even, before the Stormers conceded another two for Lambie to extend the lead to six.
All the cliché’s will be thrown around this week, ‘battle of attrition’ and ‘clash of the titans’, and yes it was, but the distinct lack of try scoring opportunities and creativity from both sides will be worrying.
Man of the match Jean Deysel was immense for the Sharks, pilfering numerous balls at the breakdown and being a strong runner in the loose. The Sharks loose forwards will be happy to have matched the Stormers’ trio, both physically and with some good runs.
The Stormers battled at the lineouts, the set piece they were expected to dominate, and with the Sharks having the upper hand at scrum time, the home side got the better of the set pieces.
Many will feel a draw would have been the fairest result as neither team really deserved to win the match more than the other.
Conditions were difficult because of humidity but more was rightfully expected of the match because of the class of player on both sides.

@David-738:
David,
Sharkies are only nasty barstaards, because you Brokebacks heckle them none stop. Every day, Every opportunity.
Brokebacks out number everyone else 2 to 1 at least.
As the majority, you have a duty to be fair and reasonable. This is not always the case.

3 Mar 2013, 14:02 pm
Here’s another one this rock n rollercoaster princess prick.
David is 100% spot on just check where all the pomposity and snake eyed indignation and inversion of anxiety is a representation of. If these lowlife Sharkishits punks are not hating on blacks they’re hating on the Watson’s or they’re hating on the pillow biting broke backs from the fairness of the Cape else they’re hating on the Kiwis or the Maori.
There’s simply no end go the fckup inverted loathing hatred these pompous bunch of snooty nosed last bastion of pomposity pricks harbor against any that are not dyed in their Sharkshit colonial colors of correlated correctness.

Give him his dues, he didn’t try to hide.
But could you hide with his style…………………………………………really.

Fern still shows face……… You would think he would make a new user name but it seems he is proud of his miraculous resurrection from the grave….. he probably thinks Easter is about him as well.

I believe you have hit the nail on the head.
The animosity here is only really between Sharks fans and Stormers fans (who are in the majority as you say).
3 Mar 2013, 14:05 pm
Bakkies, Botha got another yellow you must be so proud a real role model for young South African rugby players, how to get to the top biting stomping butting.
3 Mar 2013, 14:06 pm
@cane-760: no he went by another name.
Anyway, I’m going out. Later.

3 Mar 2013, 14:07 pm
@cane-755:
We are fair and reasonable. I admit that on a few occasions we might congratulate them, but hell, nobody’s perfect.
3 Mar 2013, 14:08 pm
@Heavens Game-749:
True.
Legendry dead man walking.
Fern and I have never been close. But always greet one another, whatever the circumstance.

@the curse-743: the self same morally incorrigible Aussies who have treated the aboriginals with nothing but the utmost respect and dignity for hundreds of years? How many successfull aboriginals are there? As many as we have successful lack South Africans? Reality check ………they were no worse than the Afrikaners hey, or maybe the fact that they afford you a decent home and income had something to do with it! You talk of hypocrisy mate! Geez every time you open you mouth it seems its to change feet you upstanding moral compass you! If you were so morally bound in terms of your values and judgments you would be on the first plane out of there! Don’t judge pal, keep your comments civil because all you do otherwise is make yourself look stupid all on your own! You don’t need the rest of us to do it!

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-756:

Now if i didnt know you i would say you were joking….
3 Mar 2013, 14:11 pm
Fern, wasn’t your name “jondood”?
3 Mar 2013, 14:13 pm
@Vinny Petrol-769:
Aussies should have been in the same boat as you guys were all those years ago. They were lucky to get away with what they did.Disgusting
3 Mar 2013, 14:13 pm
@cane-755: Cane you hit the nail on the head, only a few of them have the gonads to say well done and to deal with losing! He’ll it’s only a game, most of the guys get up their noses on this site just to laugh at their reaction. Kinda like now! They knock us to hell in the lead up to the game and then blame the refs, their coach, their players and hell, even us for losing! Lovely seeing them have their little cyber **** fits!
3 Mar 2013, 14:14 pm
@Liewe Luiperd-771:
No,
Jondood was someone else.
But he was/is a nasty bastraad as well.
A bit like me actually.
3 Mar 2013, 14:14 pm
@Heavens Game-671:
“Jantjies clever kicks over the Sharks defence were dangerous in the first half”
You must be trying to bait someone here?
3 Mar 2013, 14:15 pm
@Hurricane-772:
OH and not meaning you guys as in you guys.
Just the bad fellas of SA at that time. I have a feeling you were one of the good guys….maybe
3 Mar 2013, 14:15 pm
@Hurricane-772: never a truer word said!! Just funny how they don’t acknowledge it publicly internationally. They treat the situation like it never happened!

Old Fernly Pinnochio ( spelling).

“A bit like me actually.”
What? Was he a level headed brilliant poster with the eye of an eagle on all things rugby as well?
3 Mar 2013, 14:17 pm
@Hurricane-776: No worries, and you,ll be surprised, there are more than a few!
3 Mar 2013, 14:17 pm
@Vinny Petrol-769: sorry, havent recovered from your hypocrisy about Maori people, but yeah, just shrug that off as an attempt to get under my skin
I dont know why you bang on about Australia, why dont you take that up with Australians, or is that my fault?
I see you mention you employ so many people. do you pay them a fair wage or are you just giving lip service here?
3 Mar 2013, 14:17 pm
what is wrong with you, China
you claim i make poor atempts at trolling and then you post that..?.. wtf..?.
in his entire career he has never hit a man unconcious from behind with a stiff arm and then kneed the then prone, unconcious player who laying flat on his back lin the head/temple area.
that sort of behaviour is not even worth discussing
just pure plain filth
you people are disliked everywhere you go, except by the stormsaders but coming from a WWE market that is understandable
everywhere in europe you are disliked
shame really

“the fairness of the Cape,,,,
”
Did you get your cellphone back already from the fair good brothers of the Cape?
3 Mar 2013, 14:20 pm
Good Night All.
And thanks for the entertainment.
Keo delivers.
And as Vinny said……………………………”He’ll it’s only a game”.
Well my canes are last equal.
And it might only be a game,
but I’m getting a little pissed off.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-782:
Correct he was never caught doing that but he was caught doing many thing like headbutting a player in the back of the head while the player was on the ground.
I really dont know how you can defend a player like him as too say he is innocent and is clean. We said Hore did the dirty but Bakkies always has an excuse to do the dirty in your eyes…. face it, bakkies is one of the dirtiest that has played the game.
3 Mar 2013, 14:22 pm
Bakkies is filth always has been, he will go down as one of the dirtiest players of all time, a great role model.
3 Mar 2013, 14:22 pm
@Hurricane-779:
No he was a drunken cnut.
3 Mar 2013, 14:23 pm

and if i didn’t know you any better i would react to your now and earlier trolling sarcasm…
3 Mar 2013, 14:27 pm
Vinny
I guess it was *** with maori people that makes me stupid huh?
my gosh youre nice, and so polite too while maintaining a magnanimous air of authoprity
well done..
3 Mar 2013, 14:28 pm
@the curse-781: no I treat them all as the black slaves that they are! Geez pal if I had that attitude i would have taken my cash and run! Kinda like you overlooking my prejudices and morals in an attempt to take whatever I need froma situation. Chap I have built my domestic a house and put her two boys though school and I didn’t even vote during apartheid! I do however know about moral obligation and conviction because I acknowledge that due my ancestors actions yes I did benefit from apartheid. I can’t change that now but I do my best to influence people lives as best as I can. What do you do other than than live off the also previous racist Australian society in a non hypocritical way that only you can see?
3 Mar 2013, 14:28 pm
Oh well better go.
Bakkies is here and is know saying us people are unliked throughout the world.
Maybe we should follow South Africa so the world would love us as they love you guys…..
3 Mar 2013, 14:30 pm
South African Rugby will die a slow death if this banal style of rugby continues.
WP and Stormers rugby have been blessed with loyal fans and “bums on seats” had never been an issue but if the status quo continues enough will prove to be enough.
3 Mar 2013, 14:30 pm
@David-767:
“We are fair and reasonable.”
That’s encouraging to learn
So should we expect those ‘Reasonable People’ to come back and admit mistake if in the wake of the Chiefs’ match Saturday the Stormers will be 0:3?
3 Mar 2013, 14:30 pm
@the curse-791: you might not be bright but you sure are entertaining! I reckon NZ, Cane and Hurricane are glad to see you emigrate across the pond. The national IQ average must have increased along with your departure!
3 Mar 2013, 14:31 pm
@Vinny Petrol-792: well, not being given the leg up apartheid afforded you I struggle to be able to help others, but I treat people with respect no matter who they are
the Saffas on this site, like yourself, they get none because they show none… the few saffas on this site that do, get my respect
I didnt have a silver spoon lining my pocket to benefit from.
and what is a “domestic” is that how you label another human being?
seems a polite way of doing so, almost magmanimous even..
how nice of you..
3 Mar 2013, 14:31 pm
@cane-784: night bro, was actually hoping they would give the Aussies a carrot but with Ardie back soon you guys will get there!

Poppa warning HG never to cross his path…
HG rof en onbeskof met die oneerlike kiwis in plaas van die stompies
