@ The_Young_Turk:
You and Tapper both backing Lions, I see….maybe not such a bad if the Bulls continue with their high kick and charge kuk a la Hougaard, eish!!!
Last move with the two Potgieters from EP the right stuff though……
Home at last, Go Bulle
And home to an Ndungane try
Tryyyyyyyyy Aikona Ndungane… intercept!
Bulls 10 / 3 Lions
That was such a telegraphed pass by Jantjies and a gifted try to The Odd One!
Lions!!!!
@ The_Young_Turk:
@ Pietman:
Eissh man, I hope superbru will correct it
Bulls looking very hot here
Bulls back on attack and very close again
Bulls over, held up… scrum 5, Bulls ball
Die Potgieters teen die Leeus!
@ The_Young_Turk:You should be penalised for taking your eye off the ball. 10 points off at least
Tighthead Lions… can you believe it… eishhh
2 very good Lions scrums
Bulls scrum again, this time outside the 22 though…. and Lions get a scrum penalty
@ Just For Kicks:
I’ll take the penalty. I just want the shame of picking the Lions removed from my record.
Go Bulls!
Bulls scrums better improve.. and radically so.
Krusty lets a ball slip through his legs… and suddenly the Lions are in an attacking position
Lions penalty, right in front on the 22
@ The_Young_Turk:
@38 They should add a final rider to the questions, in case you persist with picking the Lions, something like “gethefuckoutahere”….and then grant you a ‘default’ pick….
Bulls 10 / 6 Lions
47 @ The_Young_Turk:
SHAME!!!!!
Arghhh, Bulls squander another opportunity…. fok tog!
Crusty did well there…
Bulls penalty…
Manne, kyk vir die flokken bal… ogies en hande moet saamwerk, dammit!
@ Pietman:
Eggzaggerly!
Morné Steyn misses…
By the way, congrats Morne with the little one born on your birthday!
Potgieter can win this match in reverse!!!
