Yeah, the Sharks captain is Thomas du Toit (who himself is deputizing in Lukhanyo Am's place).

Re: The transgender sports competitors catch-all mega-thread

I remember coming across a video on Twitter last year. There was a woman going absolutely mental at the reception staff of a women's beauty spa. Turns out that she'd been there with her daughter (10 years old I think), and a transwoman had been walking around naked and exposing their male genitals. ...

Yeah. My interpretation was that the defender knocked it forward out of the hand, and the attacker then grounded it with his torso.

Very wet conditions at Kings Park, and unsurprisingly there's been a million kicks already in the opening 3 minutes.

Re: Old timey, on-field things you don't see any more...

It always seems very strange when you watch an old match and you see the flyhalf kicking off from a tee (or even a pile of sand :lol: ). Yet I spent my whole playing days at school kicking off from a tee.

I think Tyrone Green would be a loss too if he is poached. EDIT and JJ Van Der Mescht. If you look at the list of locks I posted earlier JJ isn't even in the top 12 But he's a lot younger, the Boks are quite an old team. JJ is overrated.

Re: The Official UCI Pro Cycling Thread

It was brilliant tactics by Colbrelli, I thought. He knew he would have the sprint advantage in that group and all he had to do was try and mark MvdP's surges, and do the bare minimum in assisting with the turns. I do wonder though if Moscon would have been caught had he not fallen. That gap had bee...

That was one for the ages.

I think WVA expected a quicker response from Stuyven when JA went. It didn't come and it was curtains.

MVdP absolutely burned by the effort. But he has built up a nice buffer for his yellow jersey. Will he recover enough to keep it tomorrow? Yates and Nibali don't have the legs to threaten. Carapaz has burned a lot of energy for nothing today. Will he pay in the mountains, or is he sending a message...

Alaphilippe can ride a really great ITT when he needs to, but I don't think he's got enough buffer on some of the other genuine contenders to reclaim that yellow.
