Serfontein looking good. Can’t wait till 2015 when he tears into NZ
Bulls defensive lines quite good now
As I say that Coetzee snipes through… almost a try
Lions go wide left, try in the corner
Good comeback by Lions
Daar is so baie bulle en leeus in beide spanne, so wie ook al wen, dan wen my span, hehe !
Bulls 19 / 10 Lions
Try Jaco Kriel, left hand corner again.
Bad Bulls backline defence
Another try in the same corner. Good stuff Lions, making a real game of it
Goeie drie, mooi rugby.
Bulls 19 / 17 Lions
Bulls penalty, right in front of the sticks… posts
Bulls 22 / 17 Lions
Lionel Cronje, hoekom het die Bulle hom weggejaag en Fouche behou ?
Lemoenetyd
73 @ ben-die-bul:
Hy was te baie beseer
75: so hulle het al sy doktersrekeninge betaal, en toe hy reg is toe laat hul hom gaan ? Dink hy is ‘n beter belegging as Fouche, hierdie Schoeman lyk ook nie te sleg nie maar ken hom glad nie.
76 @ ben-die-bul:
Tiaan Schoeman was die Bulle Onder 21 losskakel in daai baie suksesvolle onoorwonne span van hulle verlede jaar… baie rou potensiaal
Bulls se agterlyn aanval lyk goed. Lynstane lyk goed. Verdediging kort baie werk.
Dink die laaste 15 minute gaan die bulle se longe begin brand, vir ‘n eerste wedstryd. Maar ek is klaar tevrede met wat ek gesien het van die jongspan.
2 nd Half ON!
Bulls starting well… and Jano Vermaak milks a penalty for lazy running
Stuur vir Pollard op, laat ons sien wat hy kan doen.
Bulls 25 / 17 Lions
ja-nee, daai koei sou dolleeg gewees het na Jano hom gemelk het !
Easy penalty for the Lions, shot at goal… against Willemse
Bulls 25 / 20 Lions
Try Volminck, under the sticks
2 driee om die losskrums teen die Bulle, nie goeie verdediging nie.
Lions 27 / 25 Bulls
I said last year that there was a revolution happening in SA rugby with theses youngsters coming through, this match is really proving that once again. SA rugby is in a good place right now, or rather in the near future, we really need to look after these guys though, and not let them slip through the net
