Tuks (13) 53 / Pukke (16) 24 (Final Score)
Tuks and Pukke did battle in the Varsity Cup at LC de Villiers Stadion, Tuks Sports Grounds, Pretoria at 19:30 SA Time.
This was the live match discussion Article.
The match was broadcast LIVE on SuperSport 1 & CSN on TV in SA.
Tuks made hard yards of it in the First Half, trailing 13 / 16 at the break, but became stronger and stronger as the Second Half wore on, eventually running out comfortable winners… but they will know they’ve been in a tough encounter with a very game Pukke side giving as good as they got for most of the match.

If Tuks can just cut out the needless kicking, for vark steaks!
88@ grootblousmile:My hell viewing consists of Masterchef, Downton Abbey and that dreadful dancing one (i can’t remember the name), and in return, I get fed every night, the odd shag, and as much rugby as I like – winning formula!
Come now Tuks, don’t let them off the hook here!
