Don't think so Greg. The Sharks came back well last week. Hoping for Politician's (Craig) sake

His speech started slurring last year, but it was only recently that former Springbok Tinus Linee found out he was suffering from a rare and deadly illness.

His wife Diana told the Cape Argus on Tuesday that the rugby player had been diagnosed with motor neuron disease, the same illness that has affected Springbok legend Joost van der Westhuizen, who was diagnosed in 2011.

The disease slowly destroys parts of the nervous system that control functions such as speaking, walking, swallowing and even breathing.

Diana said that when she got the news, she was depressed.

“But Tinus was actually the one who pulled me out of it… Everything is fine now.”

Diana said her husband, 43, who was still able to walk, eat and get dressed, was doing his best to enjoy life and not let his illness hold him back. “He’s taking it day by day.”

Linee, whose ability to speak has been severely hampered, was unable to comment

Nope i think this game has upset written all over it, Highlander will come back fresh from there break.... Sharks still not performing to there full ability.... Kuk odds though on Hollywood i would expect the Highlander to be around 2.5 the outright win...

Jip, very sad, saw him play a few times and spoke to him at training, very humble guy......similar sickness as Joost? Eish

OK, let's wait to see what changes have been made to the teams. You could be onto something here!
