Superbru:
In the Currie Cup Front Row Grunt Superbru pool it’s Jimfromsa who continues to dominate the leaderboard – and the race for the R 2300.00 in Reebok vouchers, while Andre Hough (Hough) took the yellow cap this week with three correct calls with margin points!
Tank’s pathetic 1 out of 3 in the Currie Cup sees him drop 45 places to 284th place out of 339!
