Bulle is so effektief as hul bal in hand hou, hoekom wegskop. Hopelik doen hul dit in die 2de helfte.
Bulls will have to have a totally different focus for the 2nd half….
They are bad at the breakdowns, kick way too much ball away…. do not tackle and play IN the Saders faces… the Saders have all the time to think before they do anything.
@ Loosehead:
Nee man….die shop is a paar honderm meter van my huis af…het goed gekies. Is net dat ek nie kondroom die game teen die Lions sou so opwindend wees nie…stock het vinnig gedaal….veral toe die Cheetahs begin stal ruik.
119@ grootblousmile:Chilliboy?
4 points difference in the scores… Bulls should be happy it’s not 14… or 24
Cillieboy to be named MrTabaco imo
Bulls need 40 minutes of pure focus now
C’mon Bulls, a much more clinical 40 minutes please
Bulls lucky to not be even further behind. Let’s learn from this and play more intelligent rugby in the 2nd half!
2nd Half ON!
Jeez man….whiskey suck…..yuck!!
Cummon Bulls….you are better than this….give emm HELL!!!
That’s partly what the Stompies did so well this morning. Intelligence mixed with execution.
Zane off for blood
JJ Engelbrecht on as the sub
Great scrum Bulls
Bulls penalty… go for posts!
Bulls have to show patience. Kick for the corners and play in the Saders quarter. The penalties will come…
