27 @ Pietman:
Hello SandSultan
Eish, hoe kon Hougaard nie sien hy gaan Basson verkoop nie ?
Landers want to speed it up the whole time…
HM will be choosing the rest of the team around Basson
Hierdie arrogante Landers dink hulle gaan ons stukkend hardloop, verrasingkie wag op hulle.
30@ Pietman:Yup, Farking cold, intermittent rain, set for the w/end. I hope it’s getting it all out now, and clears up nicely for you next week!
Bulls solid so far on defence… solid in the lineouts too…
32@ bdb:Hougie having the worst game of the season so far. Service poor, options very poor, kicks either too deep or to shallow, and I say this from a stand point of him being my favourite player – just so as not to upset anyone, again!
Penalty Landers, for a high tackle, on their own 10m line
Landers lineout battling
@ Just For Kicks:
No problem, the cold…. just keep the Old Brown ready bru!
Go the Pink, Go Bulls, moer hulle!!!
Bulls scrum looking strong
Really enjoying these stats coming from the commentators, our commentators would do well to learn from that.
@ Just For Kicks:
Agree, Hougie must shape up, only fly in the pink ointment at the moment.
But I like what I see from the Bulls, good intensity.
Landers penalty, Meisiekind holding on.. eish
41@ Pietman:Haven’t had an OB’s for years!!!!! Could do with one right now!
Attacking Landers lineout, Bulls 22
Landers penalty advantage… penalty… and a chat to Pierre Spies
44@ Pietman:Yup, scrum/ruck/maul looking v good, back line defence and running looking hot, it’s just that link letting them down
Chance to level up
Mike Delany goes for goal
Bulls 3 / 3 Highlanders
Ai, gooi Wynand lelik weg daar.
Bulle se verdediging hou, maar kan nie heeltyd so sonder die bal speel nie.
38: hy is ook ‘n favourite van my maar nie naastenby in FDP se klas nie. Individueel goeie speler, maar nie ‘n generaal as skrummie nie.
Wonder nog steeds of hy nie beter is op vleuel nie ?
I can’t believe it’s that warm in Dunedin, that those chicks can wear those bikini’s. It’s almost winter for farks sakes
54 @ Just For Kicks:
Fark, I missed the bikini’s… was it worth watching?
4th Landers lineout stolen…
Te veel hanteer foute vir bulle.
Landers penalty against Dean Greyling
Bulls steal another lineout
55@ grootblousmile:Ohhh yes, certainly better than a cup of coffee to get you going in the morning!
