Ex Supersport

Speaking of clothing committees, at Loftus Versfeld the new pink away jersey has been greeted with a mixed reaction by fans and players alike.

But the real winners are clothing sponsors Puma, who have received so much free publicity on the jersey that it is apparently outselling the Blue one two to one at this stage.

One veteran Bull Bok was quick to point out the changes would never have happened last year, when Springbok scrumhalf Fourie du Preez was heading the Bulls clothing committee.

“You can see Fourie isn’t here anymore, he wouldn’t have stood for this,” was the rasping comment on the jersey. Du Preez is of course, playing in Japan, and in the land of neon lights would have encountered more than a few interesting jersey designs in his time there.

Bwahahahahahahahahahaha I bet ou windpomp has ordered a dozen!

Is anyone surprised?

A Supersport journo talking kak again, trying to bullshit people into thinking that he has done some research about it. This is the the second time Supersport has done this in the last few months. The previous time was when they made a hell of an issue, based on a two minute remark on a news buletin from a YouTube clip.

 

This time he obviously picked it up form a remark on Twitter. It was a discussion between ou Beenbal's idol Victor Matfield and Jonh Smit taking the mickey.

This was Johns Smit. (Sorry the stuff does not paste too well to this site):

John Smit @JohnSmit123

Got you! RT @andrewcstone: @VictorMatfield @JohnSmit123. Pink is the new Black guys.............

 

Victor's reply.

 

Victor Matfield @VictorMatfield

@JohnSmit123 you can see Fourie isn't on the clothing committee anymore.

 

The above took place on the 23rd of Feb. There are other Tweets at the same time where the two were joking and chatting. They are big mates, remember.

windpomp I did notice tha there were folk with the pink jerseys on in the crowd last Saturday.

I am afraid what we all suspected is coming to pass and more and more pink jerseys will be seen at Loftus.

I think the rest of SA will split their sides when the bulle run on to play down under in ther pink jesrseys.

Wahahahahahahahahahahahaha sidesplitting stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
