Interesting game… Bulls will have to tighten their defence
Bulls penalty…. not taking the shot at goal
Mooi Steggies, druk driee, los die skoppe vir wanneer dit saak maak.
Lions steal the Bulls lineout
93: maar dan moet jy jou lynstane vat.
Lions steal another Bulls lineout…
Come on Bulls… doing all the work and then losing lineouts… eish
Eish, hierdie manne speel nie asof dit in die begin van die seisoen is nie, goeie rugby van beide kante.
Bulls 10m out, their lineout… and again the Lions steal it
Die Bulle moet nie tyd mors nie, speel die volgende agterlyn in die S15:
Hougies
Morne
Basson
Jan
WO
Mapoe
Zane
Sit Jan tussen 2 ervare spelers, Morne en WO.
99: dink dit is haker probleme.
Bulls penalty again… just go for posts and get the lead man!
… and they do… goodie
Half time in the Wales/Ireland match, Wales 3/23 Ireland. Ireland playing some good rugby, Wales struggling to string anything together. Apart from some very ordinary play, they’ve given away far too many penalties. O’Driscoll looks to have found his mojo again, and if you get a chance to watch the match, watch for a bit of Zebo magic about halfway through the first half.
Bulls 28 / 27 Lions
Handré Pollard on
Great handling for beginning of the season
Bulls get a penalty, Pollard to goal
Serfontein doesn’t have hands, he has a pair of magic wands in their place!
Over!
Bulls 31 / 27 Lions
Mastriet lyk ook goed op vleuel, lekker vinnige voete, laat my dink aan Breyton Paulse.
Bulls fitness not looking shabby… next 10 minutes will be telling
Good Bulls defence, Lions threatening
Phweeew, Bulls lineout not good
Only 4 points in this game…. can go either way
Bulls defensive penalty… get out of your half boys
Hoop die Bulle A span (veral Hougie, Morne en Zane) kyk mooi hoe lyk balbesit rugby. Jano het ‘n paar onnodig weggeskop, maar anders was dit goeie balbesit rugby deur die jonges.
Tryyyyyyyyyyyy Jurgen Visser again!
TMO
Try awarded, good try!
Verseker ‘n drie daardie. Eish, hoop die A span speel ook so !
Bulls 38 / 27 Lions
