Then, we are missing three jerseys from the final. Craig Bestbier, I want that jersey back from you.

Please guys, need them, so that I can have them embroidered for you for the year end function.

Well it has taken time to stomach the defeat to the Panthers. Well done to them for beating us 8-7 in the Internal League Plate Final on Wed 21 Sept. Damn it was so close. So nailbitingly close. Rather like the Boks loss on Sunday. I know what they feel like, the better team dominated everything, except the scoreboard. Unfortunately that is how sport and rugby goes.

Nevermind that, we can only watch and wonder what will happen next. Go Wales.
Oh and Richie! Enjoy your Vodacom sponsored trip to NZ for the semi’s and final. Skin a Kiwi (ref) while you are there.

The end of season function will be happening soon. Notice will come out soon. But regarding that, if I don’t get the jerseys back from the final – YOU will know who you are – there won’t be an end of the season function. So don’t be a doos and ruin it for your mates. Just message me and fess up.

Get your teams in for the Players4Players Bowls day. A superb day out and benefits go to disabled rugby players injured through the sport that we love to play and watch so much. Please support Cappie Chris and Klippies Mark.

Lastly, next year sees Shebeen Social Sports Club break through to new ground. 2012 will be our TENTH year of UCT Internal League. A milestone chaps. One that goes over most of your heads, but one that you should all take note of and respect. A special year chaps. And it wouldn’t happen without the legacy the older guys have left for you. Understand it, accept it and appreciate it.

Now get involved, support the P4P and get your mates to join Shebeen SSC and let’s make our tenth year flippin awesome. All sponsorship ideas welcome.
Don’t forget, touch is on, on Sundays at 4pm at Luts and coach Pete has said he will light a fire at his house, all you need to bring is a roll of wors and some dops. Guaranteed fun and a swim in the pool. Thanks Pete!

But so far, none have come close to being so magnificent that they are famous for, well, being in a photo… We have a couple of nominations here obviously, which have been wittled down to the final two…

Runner up is a gent that makes his mark on the beaches of Cape Town. A beast of a man with long, curly hair, I can absolutely see why he might be sought after for photoshoots, calendars and whatnot. This man is Shebeen lock, Robert Raw

Well done Rob… But there is another Shebeen schmoooodel that deserves this award. He is a newcomer to the industry. But what an impact this lad is having!! While some languish in the corridors, scoring online photoshoots and small time calendars, this Shebeen Boys has jumped right to the front of the queue, with a photoshoot for…. The cover of the Rolling Stone…

Rich GWorm Stemmet, not only is this the title of a really catchy, 70s song by Dr Hook, but it is also why you are so proudly going to be wearing the pink shorts tomorrow night… Congrats!

Tomorrow we take on the green characters that are the Turtle in the 2011 semi finals. Our team is looking very strong, but so is theirs, so it needs a big effort and a lot of heart on the field from the lads!!

Starting lineup is:

1. Dieter 2. Kyle Wall 3. Bryan

4. Jarrod 5. Rob Raw

6. Ogre 7. Mike VS 8. Baywatch

9. Erin 10. Smeagol (c)

11. Spartan 12. Jean 13. Devzooooo6 14. GWorm

15. Quade Epstein

Reserves:

Trev, Junior, Chabal, Wazza, Sparky Vallance, Noursie, Craig, Ruxton and Bryant

This is a great team lads! Be there at 5:30 for a 6:30 kickoff

Remember to bring kit, subs, fines money, and extra for celebration at the Shebeen after the tunnel

Short and sweet this week, as there is no competition for Pink Pants… Though Kyle Smeagol Williamson gave it a bit of a go with his “I have problems, I want to hurt people, so I will get amped and fired to sit on the sideline and not get on the park”, and Matthew Ogre Elsworth definitely deserves a mention for his special performance on Friday night at Le Tigre (If I hear “Rich, you look like you want a tie” again…), there is one clear winner.

This is probably a story best left to the tunnel. But it does involve a girl. And her mum. I won’t say anymore. Oh, and it does involve a window. And other sensitive subjects. But seriously, no more from me, other than…

Karl Baywatch Bergemann, give us some clarity as to what you got up to last week Wednesday…???

Pink Pants are yours for a second week running…

Drinks for this, Mr fines chair!!

This is a seriously strong side! Welcome back to the prodigal son, our very own Captain Smeagol. You will drink for your tardiness this season!!

Have a cracker boys, let Marquard have it!

Last week saw Devzo 6 unseated at the top spot in the Pink Rankings by our very own Charna, Quade Epstein (if you missed it, check it out here). This week, we have something a little different… There is the ultimate heads up, single confrontation between the two princesses. But at the end of the day, there is only one candidate worthy of the Pink Pants this week… Let’s get into it:

Princess Showdown:

In the aftermath of the w@nker move from the Smutsmen, there was a little internal game that went off fairly well. Aside from this incident, that is.

Tale of the tape:

Rux “Angry Midget” McClure:    VS         Devon “Devzoooo6″ Van Schalkwyk

Height: 3’5”                                                 Height: A lot taller

Weight: 32.8 kg                                           Weight: A lot heavier

Reach: Just past his nose                            Reach: A lot further

A broken nose and many tears (from both parties) later, these two qualify as our princesses this week. Rux, calm down brother… He’s your teammate! Classic little man syndrome… And Devzo, he’s a midget. Let’s be honest, you need to man up!

As awesome as that little matchup was, we have a special someone that grabs the Pink Pants this week. Known for his bullocking runs from the base of the scrum, his love of his own guns, and a new found dress sense…

Congrats to:

Karl “Baywatch” Bergemann

100 plus Shebeen members just vomited in their own mouths…

A HUGE FINE FOR THIS AFTER THE GAME, PIKEY!!

SHEBEEN

So tonight we take on Ikhaya on the Mile. Meeting at 17:30, kickoff at 18:30 on the B Field.

With a number of ex- Ikhaya players in our ranks, we would seriously like to give them proper carrots, and our team available should be able to deliver this result!

The team for tonight is as follows:

1. Junior

2. Kyle Wall

3. Bryan

4. Jarrod

5. Chabal

6. Siv

7. Mike VS

8. Baywatch Bergie

9. Erin

10. Pikey (c)

11. Ruxton the Giant Killer

12. Andre

13. Ogre

14. Karl Spartan

15. Geriatric JC

On the bench:

Trevor, Boner (TBC), James, Treebeard, Rob Raw, Craig Bestbier, Smeagol (TBC), Ryan Nash

Remember: If you haven’t paid subs, bring that with. Also, bring a bit of cash for fines (and all make an effort to stay, Captain Hosepipe will make your night worthwhile!), and then The Shebeen thereafter!!

Let’s smash ‘em gents, the beer will be so much sweeter that way!

This award has not been given nearly enough airtime this season, probably due to me being stuck on the highveld and unable to witness the ridiculousness that gets the nominees noticed. But the pink pants are back!

The Shebeen Boy’s version of the Darwin award, considered actions encompasses anything that earns the receiver ridicule, pity and many a downed beverage… So let’s get into our nominees:

Second Princess:

Though this player has not had much game time for the Shebeen Boys in his career, it is not through lack of trying on the administrative part. However, “my shoulder is buggered” can only be used so many times. Eventually, it is evident that time with females (and by females I mean hairy left palms) takes preference as a Wednesday evening activity. His redeeming moment, however, was when he was named Man of the Match with a momentous performance in the big Shebeen vs Fourths derby earlier this year. Mike VS, good to have you back mate, thought we had lost you for good there.

First Princess:

Blood relation to the second princess, this player is no stranger to the pink pants. But then it is his own fault… While it is usually his off field antics that gets him noticed, this time his unusual lack of ability has caught the selection panel’s eye. Our “blitz” outside centre was reeled and caught by the 2 heavies of the Fourths, Wazza and Milf. Devzo, this is not acceptable… but you are spared this week by our resident personal trainer…

This week, for handing out “Jack 3D” in the change rooms to all of his charnas before the Fourths clash, congrats to…

Jev “Quade” Cooper, boet. The Pink Pants are great because they show off how huge and ripped your legs are charna.

I urge you all to consider one of these three special cases when selecting a pourer tomorrow night!!
