Maties 29 / 5 UCT
Die 50cm lange skrummie van die Tamaties het Smid probeer trip oppad doellyn toe. Smid het seker gedink die sekuriteit in Skelmbosch is net so sleg as dié op Loftus en dat ‘n kind op die veld gehardloop het, daarom dat hy hom so sagkens afgestamp het.

2 Nd Half ON!
From Twitter- Just heard in the stands, a girl looking at the fullback: “He looks so lonely back there.”” — hahaha
Massive Maties tighthead scrum
More student twitting- The legs and butts on some of these rugby players… Over booking!!
mag ek maar hier vra wat was vandag gese oor die strafskop aan die Bulle na Bjorn se drie?
71 @ SuperBul, sal ook graag wil weet. Die strafskop is toegeken voor die hooter, so dan moet hy gespeel word.

73 @ dWeePer:
Gooooooo Tuks!
71@ superBul:Many, including Bulls captain Pierre Spies, believed that referee Walsh should have awarded the Bulls a penalty on the halfway line following the score which could have provided them with an unlikely opportunity to win the game if they manage to score another converted try from 50 meters out.
The fact that Ranger transgressed in the eyes of Walsh (issuing a yellow and white card) is not in question – as it was also confirmed by SANZAR that Ranger has been cited by the match commissioner for a dangerous tackle on Basson.
But it is this very fact that most people overlook when asking why a penalty was not awarded.
A referee may award a penalty to the side which scored a try on the half-way line if he or his assistants picked up that an act of foul play occurred in the in-goal area AFTER a try has been scored. This would typically be in an instance where a player would dive onto the try-scorer after he grounded the ball, but the Ranger incident occurred ‘while the try was being scored’.
Referee Walsh penalized him for a dangerous ‘tackle’ which was also the reason highlighted by SANZAR for which Ranger has been cited (Ranger is alleged to have contravened Law 10.4 (e) Dangerous tackling).
In plain English, Ranger was penalised and cited for an act which occurred while the try was being scored, not for any foul play following a try being scored hence no penalty awarded on the halfway.
The only thing Walsh could have done is award a penalty try which would have given Morne Steyn a much easier conversion.

Maties scrum really good now…
Interference in the lineout by UCT, Maties penalty
TMO
Maties try?
Should be a try…
Awarded
Maties 37 / 5 UCT
JFK @ 76 – But that was not what Walsh said on the field. He said he was awarding a penalty but that there was not enough time to take it since time would be up after the conversion.
@ TexasBul:Yes, and interestingly, you could clearly hear the hooter go about 5 seconds after the kick was taken – therefore time wasn’t up, in my book
Scrum 5 for UCT… under big pressure, even on an attacking scrum
@ Just For Kicks:

Thanks JFK, i thought it was done with the initial intention to stop a try, just like 50% of so called lifting a player and not letting him down safely. The fact is the Bulls had plenty chance to win , they should never have been in that situation in the last 10 minutes.
It is just that we all want correct decisions. Go on SA rugby Official website and click on Refs and see the Time debacle discussed there, errors errors galore , Rugby is becoming a circus.
… and Maties get the inevitable scrum penalty.
84: Sirkus is ook nie meer dieselfde vandat ons Hans Wors bokafrigter nie meer daar is nie.
Strat break in the 2nd half
Pink ball on the pitch again…
