All hues of the same.
GBS slow on updating the score, or has he messed in his pink thong?
Bulls steal the Blues ball… it was on out wide… fluffed.
Penalty Bulls
Blues have come out fighting
Another penalty, this one a relieving penalty to the Blues, they kick out on halfway… and mess up the lineout

Fark, Blues scrum penalty… Walsh determined to overblow his whistle…
Bulls on the wrong side of the ref early on. Going to be a long day it seems…
Bulls 10 down, will that shock them back into life?
Anscombe just gets it over, as it bounced on the crossbar.
Blues 10 / 0 Bulls
Bulls must get far more accurate with their game
