Somehow the Bulls will be better if they are not called a easy game , let them be highly rated , thats when the Bulls concentrate, my feeling
Fark, now my SportsPool pick is getting ruined…. it was sooooooo good just 2 minutes ago!
Take the penalty.:-)
Blues 32 / 29
This is turning out to be a great game to watch as a neutral.
Come on Blues !! 😀
Come Blues,put them away..
Old Griq,
Well hope the Ozzies can fix the rugby, no fun kicking an Ozzie while he’s down 😀 much better having a stab when you’re on the up. 😆
3 points winning margin for the Blues is fine…
Tahs on 18 log points, Blues on 14,
Fark, how did you like that double obstruction from the Blues to try and sneak Williams through?
Blatent beyond reason…. hehehhe
Oi, Lachie Turner intercepts on his own goal line and runs through to score under the sticks
Tahs 36 / 32
That is a hammer blow, can they get running again the Blues
Blues just about to score, then a run away try by the Tahs. Blues were looking very dangerous there and OOPS!! They mess up.
Tahs 39 / 32
Oohh sh*t 🙁 Need a converted try to draw in just 4 mins …
Well for our buddy here Old Griquas…….GO the Tahs.
I would be happy with a draw now…..
That bloody intercept cost me big time
Mistake Blues…. and lets the Tahs win…. shit!
