    181 – Hello Mr Durban Bulle, where did you spring from?
    Welcome to Rugby Talk and do you have insider information to get you to the top of Rugby Talk superbru so quickly? ๐Ÿ™‚

    Canes knocks on on the try-line…

  • 190

    Excellent try to Beale – fate favours the brave and that play was brave!

  • 191

    188 – Blue Bird….hehehehe. He is a Bulls supporter, I think living in Durbs. Going to win the grand prize of going to the Game Park.

    Trust these Bulls to win everything. ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

  • 192

    Penalty Canes, should run it…

  • 193

    Opts for the scrum

  • 194

    hey blue bird… Thanks…nope just the right pics at the right time that all…and be a bulls supporter ofcourse…lol

  • 195

    Looks like it will be tahs. Puma, I think it won’t be good for Sa if stormpoppies lose to bullyboysjunior tomorrow. If stormers perform a miracle and beat bulls in semi, they would have to travel to play crusaders or tahs at home in final and if the Bulls win, they face a fresher tahs or saders team in final. Far better for saffas if stormers win and force tahs and saders to return to SA immedeiately….

  • 196

    Tahs defending fiercely….

  • 197

    Warning for Tahs

  • 198

    190 – Old G. Well done to your Tahs. Told you they would make a semi. How is the wine going done mate? .. hehehe.

  • 199

    All Canes last couple of minutes…

  • 200

    you said it puma and yes im frm durban…. Started the blue bulls supporters club here in dbn….

  • 201

    Puma you were right in your pre-match prediction re the Tahs. Wine going down a treat, second bottle as a result of Tahs success so far.

  • 202

    Canes are stuffed… Tahs defence holding

  • 203

    20 minutes to go…

  • 204

    If Bulls 2nd string team win tomorrow (I doubt it) then Stormers have to play the semi in Sydney. Really don’t see it happen. Then you never know.

  • 205

    Anybody for a Pepermint Crisp?

  • 206

    In a just world Stormers should be travelling next week

  • 207

    201 – Old G. Enjoy it. Especially that your team have made it to the semi.

  • 208

    191. Puma, I have really been doing my homework, really wanted to go to superBuls friends game park too!!
    Looks like a fellow bulls supporter is going to wisk it out from under my nose……(Well to be honest I was sitting at 29th position this morning, so it was looking unlikely)!! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • 209

    Tahs clear their line…

    Out of trouble for now…

  • 210

    Puma, if the Bulls win tomorrow, the Stormers play the Bulls at Orlando, then we play the FINAL in Sydney ๐Ÿ™‚
