The world can be a cruel place - a very cruel place.   The worst thing  the world bestows on us is the fact that it allowed for the development of a uncivil service to be the bane of our lives.   About three weeks ago I went to the Department of Home Affairs to apply for a new ID card.   Four hours  in the queue - and voila my application is through and they will send me an sms when I can come and collect the card.  The SMS duly arrived last week - so instead of watching the Brumbies game, I went off to Home Affairs in  Stanger to get my ID card.   I stood in the queue for 2 hours and the queue did not move 1 centimeter.  Got the hell in and left in a huff.


Getting home was no better.   With the help of Shezza I selected a team to represent Saffex.   To my horror I discovered I am up against him in the H-to-H competition and he is going to whip the hell out of me.  That is indeed what I call cruelty - serious cruelty.   Self-inflicted.

LMAO! That is funny!

I'm up against Sasuke in the head-to-head and he's got quite a big lead on me, but he's used 5 players more than me.

 Ouch Mike, if you put Piutau in then I'm predicting a landslide victory towards Team Saffex

All will be revealed tomorrow!!!!
Folau or Piutau - who was correct.
I was only disappointed in not putting Naholo in Saffex's starting line-up and going for Jesse Kriel - but then all the doomsayers said that up against Gear Naholo would fail - I call 40 points the nadir of failure or near the apex of success.   
Incidentally - I was not impressed with S-B Williams today - he was supposed to eb our top scorer and was far from it.

 Naholo surprised, judging solely on results from the previous rounds I expected the Chiefs to runover the Highlanders and in the process negate Naholo.

 Well at least I picked Naholo and he earned some good points.  I still can't see who I am head-to-head against or see the scores of others in our group or league.

Thanks mate!

You are up against Qwaggas in the Head-to-Head comp.  You have 155 points as against his 78.  You have used 5 players as against his four players.  Qwaqggas was badly hit by the absence of Charlie Ngatai and his bench player not on the team sheet of his franchise. 
You have three players still to play where you have the same players and you also have the same captain.   He has 8 players against your seven where he could make up the point difference - so you are quite well-off.
