Oscar probably playing for Roxby United as he working up north at the mines atm...

I got him out for a session at Vipers last year and if he was to play it would be in 2 match blocks as he was

2 weeks north, then 2 weeks home. Last years coach seemed to be the reason why he declined. :x

He still got that silky touch and he def be late 40's now.

These days he kicks back with his argelle smoking that funny Lebo stuff :wink:

berts 41 or 42 this year and is one of the fittest blokes i know.
i take my hat off to him and i do hope that when he retires (if captain invincible retires) that he will stay on and coach at the mighty downs.
He's actually 43. That makes him older than me. :D

You don't need to be a student to play in a uni side, and what's wrong with mature age students anyway?

Because you always win games based on age, thought ability was what would count?

I meant looking good as in the future of the club is looking good with so many young players....If you are telling me Africa players dont have the ability u must be joking :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Maybe is cos we have too much individual ability we cant really play as a team on so many ocasions
