Sad sporting weekend!

Let me start by saying that every team gets beat and every sports supporter has their ups and downs! BUT hawu! This weekend i got clubbed from all sides by the Sports Gods. Give a guy a break. My chin is up and i will carry on. So! with that, lets get started on a selected few games / matches that i chose to high-lite from this weekend. this is how the sharks seem to be practicing.

1)Super 14. This weekends games proved that the competition is going to be a tough one!
1.1 Sharks. Their own worst enemies along with bad reffing and poor management epitomizes what the team is about this year! Not making changes when they should, and Mr Plummer i mean tree you need to to pull your finger out and get your teams discipline in tact. I will put my chop on a block and state that the Sharks will not finish above 8th on the log!
1.2 Stormers. Wow! Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Simply put. Once again they proved to be their own worst enemies. Mr Habana got a few harsh decisions against him and stand out player Pieter Louw deserved the try not given in the first half. South Africa's so called No2 ref  did not have the finest game and perhaps should have a look at his interpretations of the new laws.
1.3 Lions. All i have to say about this game is that i expected a bigger loss and that i commend Dick for starting Tod Clever and Derrik Minnie. They were their and their about and both scored a try a piece.
1.4 Bulls. Say what you want but on consistency they carry the South African flag for the rest of the country. Shell shocked fro a rapid fire spirited Waratahs quick 17 points they bounced back and did not panic to grind out a comprehensive win! Proving once again that the Half-Back pairing is possibly the best in the World. With Pierre Spies and Bakkies Botha returning from injury it bodes well for them.


2) English Premier league!
2.1 My hapless Chelsea Team. Concerned more about new haircuts and matching boots the team was totally humiliated by a fired up and hungry Manchester City team taking revenge for their left back who pulled out of the English squad because of a "teammate" doing the unthinkable and sleeping with his wife. A first half dominated by Chelsea ended up 1-1. The second half saw Benchwarmer Craig Bellamy rip the Chelsea defense apart! A somewhat dubious penalty resulted in Carlos Tevez picking up his second after a first half roly poly beat a somewhat bewildered Hillario for this an unlucky Belleti was also sent off. Michael Ballack then urned himself a second yellow(which should have happened much earlier and that was it game over.Bellamy scored his second and Lampard his second as well when Chelsea were awarded a penalty.So Chelsea finished the game with 9 men. A poor result and bad game for the the title leaders that i dare say might even end up third now.
2.2 Everton. Ala Stormers! they both play in blue and the both could be there or there abouts. No they go and screw up against a Spurs team that came prepared and dully won the game.
2.3 Arsenal. For me the the main contenders to Manchester United. Cruising for 90 minutes and in total control. the only incident of the game came in the second half when a truly sympathetic  Ryan Shawcross broke Aaron Ramsey's leg in two places. However it was to me unintentional. Shawcross has been included in the english team to play Egypt!
2.4 Once again Liverpool pulled the rabbit out of the sack with a nothing short of boring win against a below par Blackburn. I cannot help but think that Jose Mourinho  will be joining them shortly!








2.5. Manchester United!
Cruising! Thats all i have to say. They Are well and truly champions . Deserving of every accolade they get.




Boxing.
3.1 Flo Simba Beats Stephen Castle! The big mouthed castle with no style , no ring savvy and definately no punch was outclassed by a younger , quicker , more stylish and talented fighter. At 20 years old this kid has a lot to learn but wow he's quick and he can punch!
3.2 Jason Bedeman beats Bilal Muhammad! HAHAHA! Round 1 . Left jab puts Bedeman on his arse! Another jab puts him on his arse again! Round 2 Bedeman lands a clean punch and puts Muhammed on his arse. The former doesn't land a clean punch but chops his opponent down on the back of the head to the ref stopping the fight   Grant    
Fourie after losing to him and Warren Joubert must be licking their chops at a chance of fighting Jason the "glass jaw" bedeman!
3.3 Tommy the gun Oosthuizen. After giving Jarred lovett a lesson in the ring he proceeds to  climb into the ring with John Chibita from Zambia. In short the most boring fight ever! Tommy to his credit was his workman like self. Chibita should be stripped of his purse and be banned for a year. He literally did not throw more than 50 punches the whole 12 rounds.
3.4 The Big One.
Juanito Rubillar V S Hekkie Budler. I'll give Hekkie the first three rounds by a point each.While an unmarked composed Rubilar of the Philippines outclassed Budler for the next 9 rounds. A panel of judges curiously made up of THREE South Africans saw fit to award the decision to their  battered , outfought and outpunched countryman! Makes you think! Or maybe it's that Colin Nathan is Rodney Berman's nephew?






So that's pretty much all and ill try do this everyweek!  To all of those Superbru players licking their wounds! join the club.




Cheers
