GG, kept it exciting for the whole match.
Gg Houston for sure
@[email protected] you in the house?
Sure am :)
I knew I shouldn't have done that
Well congrats, not the outcome I wanted but it was a good match.
For sure :) Thanks for starting the thread and community!
lol, camerman had no idea who had the ball there!
That's too bad on the obstruction. Hope Coetzer's didn't injure his arm for a waived try.
Not the way I wanted to go into the half.
Oh.. Seattle taking a Yellow card. Houston better get some points out of this!
Great competitive first half! Too bad the ref has been so involved so far, but I haven't seen much I can really fault him for calling
From the stands I couldn't agree but that is always hard to tell. I guess we gotta trust in TMO. At the same time, I might be slightly biased.
Welp, I have to watch the second half on my phone so I'll probably be pretty quiet here.
Hattingh has been out for almost two months, so will be interesting to see how he looks today.
