Ons moet 'n ander pro-SA agent daar kry.

Rugby: Die Jongbokkies ( onder 21) het gisteraand die wêreld o 21 kampioene
geword deur Australië met 24 - 21 te klop.
Australië was vir die toernooi 1ste gekeur en SA 7de.
SA het ook NZ ( 2de gekeur) in die kwarteindronde geklop.
Ek moet nog vanoggend se koerant lees om uit te vind hoe verkeerd die ref
geblaas het.

Balfour is 'n bul in 'n Sjinese winkel - die wyse waarop hy Luyt beledig het
sê vir iets van Balfour. Ek dink Luyt is mans genoeg vir hom, maar ek hoop
Balfour besef dat hy nie die ANC is wanneer hy hom met nasionale sport
bemoei nie.
My vraag bly onbeantwoord. Waarom is daar 'n minister van sport? En, kan ons
nie minister van sport kry wat lyk of hy 'n sport bedryf het nie?
Op RSG vanoggend - die vraag hoekom daar so baie teenstrydige beriggewing is
tussen die Afrikaanse nuus op radio en TV.
Toe word verklaar dat die luisteraars en kykers moet net onthou dat
joernalistiek nie eksakte beriggewing is nie.
Nou wonder ek net dan wat is?
