France / Ireland (Game Postponed)
France and Ireland were supposed to do battle in week 2 of the Six Nations of 2012 at Stade de France, Paris at 22:00 SA Time (20:00 GMT).
This was the live match discussion Article.
The match was supposed to be broadcast LIVE on SuperSport 1 & SHD on TV in SA.
*******************
Match Postponed:
The playing surface was frozen enough to deem the pitch unsafe.
It appears now that the match will be played on 2 March.
Who’s going to join me for this one later?
I am hanging around already
Naand naand, wat sê julle van die Bulle vs Cheetahs wedstryd, kan ‘n mens iets daarin lees ?
The Six Nations clash between France and Ireland in Paris on Saturday night will go ahead after passing a second pitch inspection.
Referee Dave Pearson gave the surface the all-clear on Friday afternoon but was required to carry out a further examination 90 minutes before the scheduled kick off with freezing temperatures engulfing the French capital.
Ireland fly-half Jonathan Sexton is an injury doubt for Saturday’s RBS 6 Nations clash with France after tweaking his thigh muscle in training.
The Leinster man suffered the problem in Friday’s kicking practice forcing Declan Kidney to call up Ulster’s Paddy Wallace as cover.
If the 26-year-old Sexton does not recover in time then Ronan O’Gara will take his place at No.10 while Wallace, who was due to play in Ulster’s win against the Dragons last night, will go onto the bench.

Was goed gewees, maar dis net ‘n opwarmingswedstryd.
Het egter gehou van die tipe game wat die Bulls gespeel het…. meer besit gehou, amper geen doellose skoppery nie… goed by die afbreekpunte… uitstekend in die lynstane en goed in die skrums.
@ ben_die_bul:
Vir my lyk die Bulle reg vir die seisoen.
Ek het gehou van die hele voorry se beweeglikheid
Was impressed met Juandre en Steenkamp op slot
Maar meeste van als het ek Dewald se spel geniet, as hy so kan speel en verbeter gaan daar weer Springbok trui oor sy kop wees, ja en sy kapteinskap aanspraak sal ook weer herlewe.
CR het vir my ook baie volwasse geklink in sy onderhoud, ek sal windgat wees en se dat nie een van Schalk of Juan so kan komunikeer nie. As HM n ou soek wat met die pers kan praat sal Ralepele hom nie teleurstel nie.
Stander en die ander young guns lyk soos die regte medisyne vir die ouer manne, PS sal weet hy moet meer doen as laasjaar.
Agterspelers sal ek later oor mening lug.
What are your Bru picks for this game?
France by 5
Sale take to 15-12
9 @ Just For Kicks:
I said France by 7
I have France with 6
12 @ superBul:
So we have 5, 6 & 7 covered…. hehehe
Thinking about the England game, I can’t believe how shite they were, they were very lucky to have 2 easier games to start, but on this form, will be very surprised if they go any better
France by 10
On current form, it’s between France and Wales at the moment.
Jis die Bulle het die ou bitter bekke se tonge weer los. Weet jy GBS dit het my so ruk geneem om die winde te kan hanteer ek het meestal te gou gereageer maar nou lag ek maar net vir die arme siele wat eens hier van ons stigters lede was met hierdie blog.
KP se nou so ee hy dink nou nie meer dat Sadie n Bok kan word , en maar net een sal word omdat hy nou vir HM se span speel.
Ek lag maar net.
Het jy gesien die Stormers agterlyn was glo heel potent teen die Spears.
14 @ Just For Kicks:
I think they’re toast against Wales next week!
Fark, they were terrible, were’nt they!
@ The_Young_Turk:Well you’ve got it right so far!
17 @ superBul:
Laat hulle begaan, ou WaterBees…. ek het GEEN meer kontak met hulle nie.
Hello all, oh well just settled in at home to see the rugby called off.
@ Just For Kicks:
Yip, I think so too, with England and Ireland to battle for third and italy and scotland bringing up the rear.
21 @ Bullscot:
Called off?
18@ grootblousmile:Aweful, or woeful, don’t know what best describes them in that game. With comments like – “England showed a brand of enthusiasm and brute force to get the win”, Hodgson praises England resolve, Austin Healy reckons this England team “are turning into something special”. one wonders what we were watching!
@ grootblousmile:
Kyk ek like om te sien hoe hulle nog dink, lekker om hulle te sien water trap. Nee wat hulle kan maar enige dag weerkom chat wat my aanbetref, hulle is lekker amusant.
Goed soos die , net voor die game begin
“Bulls Cheetahs….ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ”
niemand hier het dit boring gevind nie , ne ?
Reserve players have come out and taken their places… now waiting for the teams to emerge.
21@ grootblousmile:Not yet, or that I can see – the Womens 6N was called off, and will be played tomorrow, but not this match yet
25 @ superBul:
Weetie hoekom steur jy jou aan kinderkak nie.
Yup, now they are calling it off
23@ grootblousmile:
Ye gbs unfotunately the ground along the touchline and just off field was frozen solid, they tried to get a few blowers on but in the end they have called it off, temperature is about -5C in the area at the moment and it cant have gone much if at all above zero whole day there, so for player safety they called it off.
