Lots of early pressure by the Bulls, but now the Samurai is deep in Bulls territory
Lots of handling errors now
Oops, Yellow Card for the Bulls
Samurai spills it over the line
Halftime, scores still 0 / 0
Another tight one… 3 in a row now
Yellow for the Samurai
Senatla scores for Samurai
Samurai 7 / 0 Blue Bulls
Try Samurai…. eish
Samurai 12 / 0 Blue Bulls
Bulls HAVE TO hit straight back here…. otherwise tickets
Too little time left for a comeback
Samurai had done well with a man in the bin scoring twice. Should make the final this team.
352 @ grootblousmile:
Final Score: Samurai 12 / 7 Blue Bulls
Now for my Sharks. Though we too have not played well either, so not expecting a lot here.
Next game is Sharks vs Boland
Sharks should take it
Eishhhh similar style shirts… not good
I bet you there will be a score by WHITE… but which WHITE… hehehe
Boland Scores.. first blood
Boland 5 / 0 Sharks
Boland 5 / 0 Sharks
Lemoenetyd
This Sharks side is not great at all. Surely we could have selected better players? Most are just way too slow.
Van Tonder scores for the Sharks
Boland 5 / 5 Sharks
Who will blink first?
35 secs left… still 5 / 5
Penalty… drop attempt for the Sharks
Final Score: Sharks 8 / 5 Boland
