Absolutely frenetic. Thank the pope for the scrum, if just to get some breath back!
59 @ Bullscot:
Both sides kicking a lot, trying to get an edge in these testing conditions
Lambie kicks directly into touch
Lambies first mistake
VRYSTAAT!
Dewald Potgieter doing some sterling work
Akona getting some attention, but he’s OK
Penalty Sharks. Bulls scrumming up
Scrum penalty again against the Bulls
Apart from the tackling from both sides, not a lot to write home about yet
Plenty of endeavour both sides….
62 @ madala grootblousmile:
Yeah but its going to a long hard game they need to conserve energy no need for this running aimlessly after high balls they not going to get to because the kick is too deep. Better to kick far and out then pressure the lineout and after that the Sharks defensive kick, especially if the kick is out just outside the Sharks 22 if I have it right the receiver would not be able to kick out direct
Another penalty to the Sharks. Kickable
Hello all, ok the game can start now i am here
Is it a little ghey to have a white wine with the rugby, or should I just have a scotch & soda?
Penalty Sharks, against Jano… kickable
Sharks 3 / 0 Blue Bulls
Sharks 3/0 Bulls
@ Bullscot:
You can watch it live on vipbox/tv/rugby…..downloading the player takes only a few seconds.
@ Loosehead:Your musings worry me!
Staunch defence, both sides, this time by the Bulls
Oh no come on Bulls.
in 2 minutes of watching this i am already pissed of by Lawrence, cant the make a law and ban all Lawrences out of refereeing????
I will not drink now…. hehehe
3rd scrum penalty for the Sharks
Bulls getting pummelled at the scrum. Thats 3 against them now
79 @ Pietman:
Thanks Pietman am always concerned about what these programs could do to my computer and am also not the brightest techie wise, will see if can get it to work
Stains turn to kick out on the full
86 @ Just For Kicks:
Thats no good especially if you think the Sharks still have Beast and Alberts to come on later to beef up their scrum
Bulls steal the Sharks lineout…. taken back into the 22 and kicked directly out by Steyn
