don't really think so, not really our bag anyway, now if the Sharks had lost against the Stormers today, that would have being more than sour grapes, I would have mourned! but they did not, my boys are on their way for the super 15 rugby finals against the Kiwiland Chiefs, and after that it is the Boks against the All Blacks, Wallabies and Argentinians. Sour grapes might have something to do with an English No1 in the world cricket team that lost a test with an entire innings, me thinks
