25 / 25
Another NMMU try – this time by Jeff Taljaard – they now lead TUT by 30-15!
Pukke 28 / 25
Wie het julle gepick hier, ek weet smallies het Shimlas gepick.
Penalty Shimlas… Davids goes for posts
Badddddd miss, wayyyyy left
Ek sien nou eers ek het geen pick gemaak nie, met die bleddie internet wat so baie af is heeltemal vergeet
154@ superBul:
Ek het Shimlas gepick met 10… hehehe
NMMU are ahead by 33-15 over TUT
Penalty Shimlas…. easier one
They go for touch though…. and maul from the lineout
CUT have scored two late tries to snatch the lead back from Fort Hare. 30-24 with five minutes to go – tense stuff!
Charge down try for Shimlas…. Olengo
bliksssssssseemmmmmmmm
Shimlas 32 / 28
Knock by Pukke on attack….
Pukke on attack again…. only a try will see them win, kick alone not enough
Game over in PE – a late NMMU try makes it 40-15 to the Men from PE over the TUT Vikings.
Nkuli Gamede gets a late consolation try for Wits but it’s not enough to beat UWC who finish 19-11 victors in Bellville.
Good counter-ruck by Shimlas…. Pukke penalised
Tuks ended UJ’s four-match Varsity Cup unbeaten run with a well-constructed 38-23 victory in Johannesburg.
30 seconds left….
Lineout, Shimlas ball….
@ superBul:171
Will this be the turning point for Pretoria based sides?
Shimlas win their own ball… all they need to do is kick out now…. they lose the ball
Penalty Pukke…. they attack
They turn the ball over and Shimlas run through to score
Final score Shimlas 37 / 28
kan met trots se dat daai nr 4 slot net so 12kilos van my af bly
9 point margin… so my 10 point prediction was nod bad at all… hahaha
Ding dong battle, nice one Shimlas. I enjoyed the game. Pukke looked much better, i think Rudi Joubert can stay on leave.
