Gooooooooooooo Bulls!
Go Bulle. !! Alhoewel ek nie soveel omgee vir die uitslag nie. Ek wil vandag te minste goeie struktuur sien. Die spelers moet weet waar hulle plek is in verdediging en aanval. Hulle moenie eers hoef te dink daaroor nie. Ek sal ook graag wil sien dat hulle goeie momentum bou. Sal ook goed moet dophou hoe lyk die verdedigings patroon onder Pine.
2 @ leon:
O donner, ja… Pine is nou assistent… eish.
Wil ook die strukture sien… en sien of daar klem gelê word op balbesit rugby…
@ grootblousmile:
Ja, ek wil ook sien dat die bal goed beskerm word en ‘n bietjie meer variasie op aanval. Laas jaar was hulle aanval te voorspelbaar. As hulle wil wen teen goeie verdediginde spanne sal hulle moet aanpas.
Just less than an hour to go for this one to start
I will be your Captain for this match, whereas Just For Kicks will be your Captain for the Wales vs Ireland game.
Start shuffling up, folks, about 10 minutes to go till the start of the match.
Lions team taking the field
Ek sien die Leeus het vir elke game ‘n beker. Lyk my hulle gaan die jaar eindig met die meeste bekers in die kas. Wel dis een manier om goed te lyk.
Bulls also now taking the field
9 @ leon:
Hehehehe, ja… hahaha
Watse hand skud sessie is dit nou?
1 Minute silence, for Doc Louis Luyt, who passed away yesterday
Game ON!
Tryyyyyyyyyyyyy Jan Serfontein!
Whoop, whoop!
Wow, dit was ‘n vinnige drie.
Bulls 5 / 0 Lions
Drop goal by Marnitz Boshoff… loong one… over
Bulls 5 / 3 Lions
Why didn’t they put Pollard in the starting 15?
Penalty to the Lions, Bulls tighthead dropped the bind
Marnitz Boshoff going for goal… missed to the left
Penalty Bulls, Lions not rolling away in the tackle
Sjoe, die Bulls se verdediging lyn lyk maar bietjie deurmekaar.
Irony a minute silence for Louis Luyt before the start of a rugby game in Soweto. That would be like a minute silence before a football game in Ventersdorp
Another Bulls penalty, in on the side of the maul by the Lions… clear penalty.
Eish, sitter missed by Tiaan Schoeman
Bulls penalty again…
Bulls not looking too shabby, considering it’s their B side
I wish they would change the scrum infringements to free kicks and take away penalties in it
Tryyyyyyyyyyyy Jurgen Visser!
TMO
Try awarded, grounding was fine
