Bulls get the first scrum…
Tryyy Time Lions
28@ Puma:
Jeez typo there.
dery = derby… 🙄
Early setback, nothing else.
Charged down try by the Lions…. looks like Bondesio
Gaap, niks nuuts in die Bulle se seisoen nie, begin al weer swak.
Lions 7 / 0 Bulls
Now thats put the cat amongst the pigeons
Sorry try was by Tian Meyer… not Bondesio
35@ grootblousmile:Meyer
28@ Puma: Puma buddy, you have to get a spell check.
Bulls now on attack… forward pass by Zane… at the line
Another serious injury for the Lions? Meyer looks very crook
41@ Loosehead:
hahaha. Need to watch my typing.hahaha. So rubbish at it and never check what I have typed………..hehehe. Hands are too big…lol.
Puma, Oompie… yes, I did support the Sharks yesterday!
Jeepers just look away and there is a try by the Lions.
Ralepelle just out…. almost a try.
Lions lineout… Bulls pinged for NUmbers in the lineout
43@ Just For Kicks:Nah, he looks okay now
Flok, Bulls starting kak again!
These Field ears are nice, can hear everything the ref says…. advantage Bulls… and then a penalty, which almost blew my ear out… flok!
Lions not going to lie down too easily here, heres hoping for a great derby
Bulls…..asb wen die game. Daar is n mak moer by my werk wat dink die son,maan en sterre skyn uit die Lions se gatte. Kyk man, ek weet die manne was goed in die verlede, maar ek glo hulle moet weer hulle plek verdien. Hierdie hele SR ding met watse spanne in volgende jaar se SR toernoei ingelaat gaan word, is besig om n verdomde onderonsie (en kyk, dit is om dit mooi te stel)tussen SA spanne genereer. Daar is 4 provinsies….liewe bledie hel….gee elke provisie datem sy eie span. Is that to much to ask?….Clearly so….
Bulls hard on attack again
Bulls putting in some huge hits here
Chilliboy has really matured into an excellent player.
@ Puma:
Puma….I hope your botjies pull it together….they surely have my support(go x-cheetahs) 🙂
Lions scrum, just inside their 22
52@ bos_otter:Hahaha, love it!
Zane kicks a long one dead…. scrum all the way back
@ Loosehead:
I apologise mate. I reread the comments and I misunderstood you. Thought you were saying I was running the CTahs down. You just disagreed with me about whether the Chiefs were much better than them.
