@K9-MonsterLeeu – Very sportman like of the Lions to allow the Bulls to stay in the game.
Burton slips and misses one he should have gotten
Burton misses a droppie
Better play by Bulls
What a tackle on Potgieter.
@Loosehead – almost got cut in half
Concentrate on Francis. He’s the weekest link.
Are the IRB going to to fine the Lions for Earl’s writing on his armband?
@K9-MonsterLeeu – Bulls now playing with 16 players. 😆
Dewalt Potgieter is having a bloody good game so far.
@grootblousmile – He and Stegman will both be Boks.
This Earl Lewis kicks to much.
70@Loosehead – Don’t know about Stegmann… but Dewalt definately !
@grootblousmile – Hey, a Bulls thread running mainly in English…Deep joy!! But Lions 3 and Bulls 0 – What!
72@grootblousmile – After HB he is the best fetcher in SA.
73@carol – Hard, physical game… always is between these 2 teams
74@Loosehead – Did not see the Bokke game… how did Shalla play ? Did he come on as a sub ?
Players slipping all over the show……

Lions 10 / Bulls 0
K9, Wie is daai vetgat wat No 8 speel?
Mooi drie
76@grootblousmile – He came on after about 10 mins were played in the 2nd half. He palyed really weel, made plenty tackles, cleared out the ruck, carried the ball and most importantly didn’t get sent off. He wasn’t even penalised.
Try Lions.
How fcked up as that penalty?????????
Bulshit penalty Craig Joufcukenbert!!! The guy slipped into the tackle!!
84@Loosehead – Who did he replace, HB or Juan ?
@carol – Wouldn’t know Carol, I just saw the link, I never trust those sites.
