It’s the world’s most watched annual sporting event. Tomorrow is the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final. Bayern Munich vs Chelsea. Germany vs England. We won’t go further than that. Do that in your own mind. At 20h45 South African time, the English and German giants will do battle in the colourful Allianz Arena, north of […]
In the wake of his words against marriage equality, boxer Manny Pacquiao faces possible loss of sponsorship and is certainly a less popular figure around Los Angeles at the moment. Now he, and his spokesperson, have spoken out against the backlash, and clarified the statement that got the WBO Welterweight champion in such hot water.
Here it is, gang! This week’s 2oceansvibe Super 15 multiple! And there’s not one, but TWO! So if the one doesn’t take your fancy, you can try the other. We have specifically designed this to try to nail a win! I’ve lost a couple hundred over the past three weeks, and that’s the beauty of […]
Last week we gave you the low down on the Heineken Start Final, and how YOU could win two tickets to this rad, and ultra exclusive event. For the past five years Heineken International has hosted the Heineken Star Final, where selected global ticket winners can view the UEFA Champions League final in exotic cities […]
World Boxing Organisation Welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, considered by many as one of the finest boxers currently active in the sport, has come out strongly in opposition to U.S. President Barack Obama’s statement of support for marriage equality in the United States, issued last week. Actually, “strongly” is putting it mildly.

This morning we reported on a fire that broke out over the weekend at the Spanish Grand Prix in the Williams team’s garage. Click through for a full picture gallery, as well as video footage, of this dramatic event.
Yesterday, news reports surfaced about a schoolboy who was allegedly sexually assaulted with a broom and a banana. The incident took place during an Edgemead High School rugby tour. Even though authorities have opted not to prosecute anyone, Childline is campaigning for legal steps to be taken against the school and the coach who was charge when the alleged events took place.
For the latest issue of The Cricketer, they asked a large panel of cricket journalists, broadcasters, photographers and fans which cricket pitch is the best to watch Test cricket at. And according to the experts Newlands takes a close second place, only behind Lord’s, the symbolic home of the game. See the rest of the Top 10 inside.
The first part of the Olympics happened this morning, which saw the lighting of the Olympic torch in Ancient Olympia in Greece. This marks the start of the 78 day torch relay to the Olympic Stadium. Where will the torch be traveling this year?
It would appear that Bafana Bafana player (and Mamelodi Sundowns captain) Teko Modise has landed himself in a spot of trouble after failing to pay a monthly maintenance to his estranged wife. She now wants him to be held in contempt of court and sent to jail.
News has recently come to light revealing disturbing details of a 16-year old boy who was raped while on a school rugby tour. The incident was part of an elaborate initiation process which clearly went horribly astray, all of which was recorded on cellphones.
Here it is, gang! This week’s 2oceansvibe Super 15 multiple! And there’s not one, there’s TWO! So if the one doesn’t take your fancy, you can try the other. We have specifically designed this to try and nail a win! Good luck! 2Oceansvibe Multiple 1 (Odds are 20 to 1) 1) Lions to win, draw […]
African Cup of Nations Local Organising Committee head, Mvuzo Mbebe, told reporters yesterday that Cape Town had not been selected as a host city for the upcoming AFCON because it “did not meet the criteria for hosting,” but did not elaborate quite where the Mother City fell short. Mayor De Lille has different ideas however…
With two weeks in a row not coming through for us, we’ve tried to make sure this time! At 20 to 1, these odds are very likely to come through! I was chatting to someone the other day who is kicking himself for not putting money down on the famous 100 to 1 multiple we […]
Yesterday, England’s Football Association announced the rather controversial choice of Roy Hodgson to take the reins of the national football team from Fabio Capello for the next four years. Hodgson has the experience of a long career in coaching behind him, but can he turn the fans and even the players to his side in order to recapture England’s long gone football glory days?
Oh awesome, this makes total sense. The UK’s Ministry of Defense is planning to install surface-to-air missiles on top of residential flats in east London for the duration of the Olympic Games. The bulk of the missile array is intended for the Lexington Building Water Tower, which has about 700 people living in and around it.
It’s been the rhetorical question on everyone’s lips for quite some time: will Cricket South Africa ever get the unlawful bonus money back from those who received it? There seems to be a chance that they will. CSA is attempting to recover R3,3 million from suspended chief executive, Gerald Majola and former chief operating officer, Don McIntosh.
I was chatting to someone the other day who is kicking himself for not putting money down on the famous 100 to 1 multiple we ran three weeks ago – the one that cashed out R600,000 to lucky 2oceansvibers. He said he put R100 down for the two last weeks’ bets and they didn’t come […]
It’s Mount-Everest-climbing season, apparently – with the National Geographic team attempting to recreate the route used in the first American ascent of the mountain, the 1963 NG-sponsored American Mount Everest Expedition. The team is live-updating their progress online, with a live stream of photos, blog posts, and twitter updates. I think one of them’s using Instagram, too.
Much like Jeb Corliss took BASE jumping to new heights, a group of adrenaline-thirsty snowboarders have taken their obsession to the next level. Who would’ve guessed that ditching snowy slopes for icy glaciers would make for such amazing pictures.
Welcome to another week of sports betting fun! This week, for a mere R182, you could enjoy riches of up to TEN GRAND!

Oscar Pistorius has been named one of TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people of 2012. He is the only South African on the list. See who he shares it with, and what the magazine had to say about him, after the jump.
Wait, what? Cape Town’s pride and joy, Cape Town Stadium, apparently has sections of the roof pulling loose, despite only being around for two years. Damage was found to the bolts holding the roof in place during a routine inspection. Guess how much the investigation is going to cost you, Cape Town Ratepayer…
The Grand National horse race in England has been heavily criticised after two horses had to be put down this weekend. They were euthanised because they each broke a leg after falling after a fence jump. The event’s winning horse’s trainer had the following to say: “…a lot of people need to grow up, and realise that it is life”. Pics of both incidents inside.
[THE FIRST MULTIPLE IS CLOSED, BUT THE SECOND ONE IS STILL ALIVE!] Hello there, friends. Ok so it is quite evident that we are all loving these weekly multiple sports bets. It just makes the sporting weekend that much more fun, doesn’t it? And for a mere R100, you might enjoy riches of up to […]
Inside Out is the brainchild of Easton, an American sports equipment maker. The concept is simple enough, strap over 100 GoPro cameras to athletes from various disciplines and let them do what they do best. Click through for the awesome result.
So last week we nearly got our hat-trick, with 2 out of the 3 legs of the multiple coming through. Some idiot’s kick before the half time whistle in the Sharks game ruined that for us! So this week we’re jacking it up a little, by giving you a bigger multiple to play with, courtesy of […]
Wits secured their place in the Varsity Cup next year with a hard-fought 19-17 victory over defending Varsity Shield champions, CUT, in a dramatic final played in Bloemfontein last night. Their victory promotes them to the high stakes Varsity Cup next year!
Tony Hawk was the first person ever to land a 900 on a skateboard. For the uninitiated, that means that he flew up the one side of a half-pipe and spun around 5 times (180 X 5 = 900). That’s pretty hot. He did that in 1999, and now a kid named Tom Schaar, who […]
