wrong tactics, i think.

if the bulls keep on conceding penalties,
then they’re gonna play parts of this game with 14 or less players!!
Bulls cock up their own lineout, Saders penalty

Another kickable Saders penalty…
@ Loosehead:

How so?
Saders 11 / 0
bit of a concern that the crusaders keep on opting for the scrum … wouldve hoped to see a bit of dominance from the bulls in that area!!
Damn, Bulls penalised relentlessly…. penalty again and team warning.
