Watching a Sharks team full of Springboks, I am reminded of a how Springbok teams full of Springboks used to play in the pre-Rassie days.

@Poplak "due cause" 🤣

I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made)

I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

@Poplak Doesn't make sense. Chuckles is not sold at Spar so I completely miss your point.

@ArisDanikas @News24 Maybe just for marketing. If I understand the process correct the installation instructions are - Point at sky and switch on, in any order.

@CindyPoluta Agurkie is right, but if it sounds weird you can also go with Suurkomkommer (Sour cucumber)

@Peterman43 He’ll probably just add a Minister of Arrests.

@BruceChwattEqn @sportbillysays @AndyGoode10 True. Continuity of play makes it more watchable, but I’m sure if you limit it to one review per side per half it won’t cause that many extra delays. The game is becoming slow in any case with all the reviews from the ref and linesman.

[Dirk Brand @djbrand]

@sportbillysays @AndyGoode10 It was the same story game after game in cricket until the captains got 3 reviews per innings. Do the same in rugby and all this what ifs can be prevented.

@rid1tweets So can we (and by we I mean government) now put Covid behind us and focus on sorting out loadshedding where the daily case positivity is 100%.

If you don't understand the concepts in this excellent, well written thread, then your opinion on the virus and vaccines is not an informed one.

[Tom Wenseleers @TWenseleers]

A short thread with some thoughts & calculations of mine about Omicron. Still preliminary, so don't take any figures as final, but it's a start... 🧵

Can't wait to see this on shelf I think you gonna love it. Fantastic for the camp or braai fire. So convenient and safe. Hierdie gaan loop. When you see it buy it. @distellgroup @SedgwicksOB

@StellMun Is stellenbosch CBD shedding with Zone 2 or Zone 8?

[Dirk Brand @djbrand]

@helenzille Jeez, twitter people are just looking for a fight. We all have a responsibility to use services wisely and prevent this type of thing. It is not a service delivery issue, it is not a police issue, it is a issue of caring for what we have.

@gormendizer Dieselfde rede dat ons olimpiese atlete en internasionale sportsterre kan klassifiseer as useless. Van die rusbank af kan ons alles doen, alles weet en alles sien.

@topofthemoonGW @Scotlandteam The rest all played for SA under 20?
