Staat showing more urgency now
GBS ek stem glad nie saam met jou assesment van Justin Jinka en Brummer nie. Maar ek weet mos nie eens die helfte soveel soos jy nie. Net snaaks as die wedstryd verslae inkom is ek soms reg.
Knock, Bulls scrum…. phewww
Hello all, judging by the half time score this looks like a good comeback here Bulls. 6 tries already, is it good rugby or poor defence?

Penalty Staat…. easy one, very easy
Yebo Yes!

Forward pass… Bulls were very hard on attack… eishhhh
@ Bullscot:
A bit of both, but a nice game to watch.
Bulls penalty… a Staat player in front of a kick… good touch finder by the “Brommer”
107@ Loosehead:
Thanks Loosehead, good you have a nice game to watch then but must be nervous viewing with scores so close
Finally, Dustbin is off, subbed…. penalty advantage to the Bulls and immediately Snyman injects some pace
Brommer takes the shot at goal…. come on Brommertjie, you have to slot this one!
Overrrrrrrr
Blue Bulls 33 / 30
@ Bullscot:
A little more nervous now that we are 3 points behind.
This is a bloody close game
Staat scrum just outside the Bulls 22
@ Loosehead:
Shame pity for you after such a good start, sorry can’t say hope it gets better cause need Bulls to win
Great Bulls scrum
Ruan Snyman injured, not looking happy at all
