Quins win Final score Harlequins 30 -23 Leicester, great stuff Harlequins!!!
Cheetahs gave a perfect display of how to go from one extreme to the other at least twice in one half. Makes you want to tear your hair out
Quins take the title 30/23
One can NEVER, ever, ever win the competition with the type of defence that the Cheetahs have showed this half
@ Just For Kicks:
Makes me want to tear all THEIR hair out!
@ grootblousmile:
Exactly, no use scoring 3 tries if you concede 4!
91@ Bullscot: Congrats Bully, great win by the Quins. They deserved that one, apart from the last 20 min in the first half, they played the better rugby
96 @ The_Young_Turk:
Fark, I get so angry at shitty defence!
There is no structure to their defence at all… as if they’re only geared for attack.
18 Missed Cheetahs tackles already.
Waratahs clever with chippies accros the backline….
@ The_Young_Turk:
96
hope this free scoring goes on and on , we have not seen many tries lately
Bulls started 2010 with this type of game, scored 5 tries but conceded about 4, and then they reverted back to their proven game plan. This year the Bulls try in the first half but cant finish it of and the concedes to many tries…..
2nd Half ON!
What will this half deliver?
If you never saw the Cheetahs defence, you’d think they were a very good team!! They have such flare
Forward pass by the Cheetahs
Cheetahs to win by more than 20 🙂
Ok all just about outta here, have put a wee article on Aviva Premiership final up. Just time to say think best result for Sharks v Stormers will be a draw with no bonus points for tries
@ superBul:Howzit, how was the stall today?
103 @ Just For Kicks:
Yip… FLAIR too… hehehe
Can Joubert see only the Cheetahs forward passes?
@ Bullscot:Cheers Bully, good to chat. See you for the BaaBaa’s match?
Waratahs steal a Cheetahs lineout
108@ grootblousmile:Thats the one!!!!!!
Waratahs penalty, right in front… offside
@ Just For Kicks:
Nice thanks had 3 great customers at the Nursery, enjoyed them and also in the shop some nice people. I love the interaction with people.
Waratahs 34 / 21 Cheetahs
Another lineout steal by the Waratahs
It’s not dreadful tackling, its non-existent tackling!
Relieving Cheetahs penalty… Brussow stealing on the ground
Hope the Warawarahs relax now that they have the 4 tries and a good lead and the Staat can run in a quick 2or 3 tries…
110@ Just For Kicks:
Cheers JFK have a good rest of Saturday mate, not sure if will make Baa Baas but will also be Pro12 final tomorrow PM so if they at similar time might pop in. cheers all
