Are we in agreement that Greyling is shit?
Chilli of watch the Bulls front row improve
Saders 3m out
Bulls in trouble here
Come on Bulls, defence MUST hold here!
well done Greyling
Good defence by the Bulls
Bulls steal it, Hougie kicks out
Better from Steyn
Better play from the Bulls
crusaders have way way too much possession at the moment
come-on bulls
Saders fired up, hey!
Peyper’s just giving the Crusaders a false sense of security here, he’ll turn that arms around soon enough!
@ Just For Kicks:
Dale or Morne haha
Penalty advantage Saders, in front, just outside the 22
Carter misses the sitter
……and Steyn back to his seasonal best.
Bulls terrible so far…. ai tog.
Now Morné kicks directly out.
Bulls steal their 2nd Saders lineout
Bulls defence good, that’s about it…
Morné Steyn down injured.
Morné up again, luckiliy

@ Spooony:They’re so interchangeable!!!
How does the New Zealanders not manage to sell out a 20 000 seater stadium in Christchurch?
@ The_Young_Turk:Howzit Turky
Morne Steyn must have bet BIG money on the Crusaders winning this game.
Try Zac Guildford…

Crusaders 13 / 0 Bulls
@ Just For Kicks:
This turky is ready to pluck me some goose 😉
What have the Bulls management done to allow Steyn to regress so badly this season?
