[Comment From Juan Cote] Brumbies have dropped off in intensity in the last 10 mins, they look tired to me |
|
6:13
|
[Comment From NTA] Come the f*** on Horsies – that much territory and possession and you’re not over yet? @ Juan – probably the emotional energy is out of them right now. They’ll have to really knuckle down… |

|

|
6:17
|
Gagger: You part of the Eugenics league NTA?? |
|
6:18
|
Gagger: Pies are never truly free JC. Mrs Gagger has taken Gagger Jrs out though! Just as sweet! |
|
6:19
|
NTA: No idea what that even is, but I know your average indigenous African (or Australian for that matter) has superior bone density and thickness compared to most whiteys like me. That’s why not a lot of them are high-jumpers. |
|
6:19
|
Gagger: Game re-started. Stormers knock on just oustide of their 22 |
|
6:20
|
