Why? Are you leaving Queensland?Now where is the number for the immigration department?
Maybe a change in tactics from the Queenslanders now we've played ball in hand boring rugby to get past the kiwi's. A bit more running to wear down the bigger South African sides over the next few weeks, hopefully
I think he's trying to say that they're sister or twin cities.
They're actually not according to the wikipedia page of each city.
I don't know where Rassie's going with it but I get where he's coming from. Both on the east coast about the same latitude and have monsoonal summers.
Rassie when you compare Pretoria to anywhere in the bush have you heard of a place called Canberra?
As for this game, I'm as nervous as hell. Haven't got a good record against them and don't know the players well enough to say that they're significantly weakened by injuries.

Nothing personal but I get tired of reading this. Or do you mean they are less mobile? In which case I beg to differ. I would say the Stormers pack is as if not more mobile than the Tahs pack.
Week in week out for years not the Super packs and Bok packs have not been bigger. The Bulls pack was outweighed by the Canes and Waratahs.
Just setting it straight like.
Shock move on cards for Ioane
Published: May 8, 2013 - 5:06PM
Could Wallabies winger Digby Ioane be a major selection surprise in the centres as Queensland attempts to rework its spluttering Super Rugby attack?
A potential shock move closer to the action appears on the cards for the tackle-busting Ioane after Reds coaching boss Ewen McKenzie delayed naming his starting team for Friday night's clash with the Sharks.
McKenzie will now unveil his side on Thursday after experimenting with combinations in the wake of the 11-11 draw with the Western Force when his side crossed just once despite enjoying the lion's share of possession.
The Sharks are the only side Queensland haven't beaten in four seasons under McKenzie and the Reds want to give last year's runners-up less time to plan for any selection curve-balls.
"It's a really important challenge and we'll sort (the team) out by tomorrow but we've been playing around with a few combinations and we've got a few things we want to fix," McKenzie said.
A backline reshuffle - with either Ben Tapuai, whose form has dipped in the past fortnight after starting each game this season, or Anthony Fainga'a making way for Ioane in the midfield - would also allow both Chris Feauai-Sautia and Rod Davies starts out wide.
Queensland boast the second best defence in the competition by conceding 14 tries in 11 matches but their attack has reaped 21 five-pointers as they have ground out seven wins and two draws.
Ioane was a stand-out in Perth, making 17 runs and 12 tackle busts against the strong Force defence, and has some history at outside centre for the Reds back in 2009 and 2010, as well as the Wallabies in 2009.
McKenzie confirmed the expected return of Wallabies prop James Slipper at tighthead and the loss of winger Dom Shipperley (back) wouldn't be the only alterations as he looks to shake up their play.
"We're not happy with where we are," he said. "We know we've got good players.
"The feeling is we're doing all right and we're sitting at the right end of the competition but can we do better?
One of the changes will not be Wallabies back-rower Radike Samo, 37, who finally seems to have succumbed to his age and has missed the squad after failing to impress in two club matches.
"It's one thing getting out there and running around but you have to get out there and play like a Test player," McKenzie said. "You have to earn your way back there."

Have you been on the XXXX Brewery Tour before? There'll be one at 4pm that would run you up until the game nicely. Tour, then beers and dinner at their restuarant and then off to the match.
Both these teams have a rivalry dating back 1994 and both cities share the same climate, population size, and relaxed, seaside atmosphere.I don't understand the reference Rassie, is Durban very similar to Brisbane or is it more obvious than that?
Yes they areI think he's trying to say that they're sister or twin cities.

lol Do they slaughter and strip the chicken while you wait in Canberra? If yes then I think you may have a point thereI don't know where Rassie's going with it but I get where he's coming from. Both on the east coast about the same latitude and have monsoonal summers.
