Bulls (13) 23 / Waratahs (6) 17 (Final Score)

The Vodacom Bulls hosted the Waratahs at Loftus Versfeld, Pretoria at 19:10 SA Time. This was the match Thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA.

The Waratahs made quite a game of it and worried the Bulls throughout the match but in the end the Bulls won by 23 / 17, a slender 6-point margin.

Mission accomplished, 4 points in the bag for the Bulls, pity about the one point for the Waratahs.

Scorers:

Bulls: 3 Penalties & 2 Conversions Morné Steyn, 1 Try Wynand Olivier, 1 Try Bjorn Basson

Waratahs: 4 Penalties Kurtley Beale, 1 Try Atieli Pakalani
