88@ Scrumdown:

@ Puma:
I may take a little alcoholic beverage later!!
Probably a cold Sauv Blanc!!
Hey, so much for the Reds possibly being weary from travel!! I came here and saw Bulls lost by 9 !!
@ grootblousmile:
96
waneer laas het Aplon iets besonders gedoen?
Lions seem incapable of giving an offload in the tackle. Slow ball all the time.
Leeus staan staan en gooi vir mekaar die bal, geen vorentoe oor voordeellyn nie.
@ grootblousmile:
Hey, you remember..!! 😉
101@ superBul:
Nounet…. en jy?
Koster and Anton van Zyl on
Too many handling errors for Super Rugby.
Conditions aren’t THAT bad.
Maku off, Bezuidenhout on
goeie aanval deur beide spanne
@ grootblousmile:
vir my impress hy laaankal nie meer nie. Hy is ook maar n outjie wat op reputasie aleen die span haal
Penalty Lions, at scrumtime, kickable
Penalty Lions for scrum infringement.
Francis for poles.
Over. 19 – 26
Stormers 26 / 19
@ superBul:
superBul, what has happened to ‘our’ team ? 🙁
I like supporting a winning team!! Hehehhe
I do admire our Lions friends, disappointment week after week but they stay true!
This is a game just waiting to break out….
Flipping hec, my superbru on rocky ground here……
Stormers need to work harder now.
Good play by the Stormers, Francis a bit too relaxed with that kick coming through
Francis ‘n groot verbetering op losskakel vir die Leeus.
@ Blue Bird:
We lost our winning culture. But today we were beaten by a very good team. I feel that VM is a major problem in our team now.
@ Blue Bird:100 – Only watched the first half. Still to watch the 2nd. Recorded it. Had to go out. But it seems Bulls played far better than last week.
Yeah, live a little have a glass of wine later…lol.
