Scores;
Maties 8 – 8 NMMU!
Wits 25 – 23 Pukke!
UCT 18 – 13 UJ!
2 Nd Half ON!
It’s 18-18 at the Green Mile now as the FNB Ikey Tigers host FNB UJ – just over half an hour left in the match. #rugby #varsitycup
Game on again in Johannesburg – what will the second half bring after eight tries in the first half?! FNB Wits 25 FNB NWU-Pukke 31
The Madibaz continue to put Maties under pressure in Stellenbosch. Logan Basson goes over but it was a forward pass. Still deadlocked at 8-8
UCT strike back immediately UCT 26 – 18 UJ

GarthHirst – #NMMU #Madibaz robbed of a try!
Phweeeeew, my SuperBru gaan moer kak lyk na hierdie klomp surprize results!
Dink ek het Maties met 35 gepick, Pukke met 40 teen Wits… en UJ gemaklik teen UCT
Try fest…UJ return the favour UCT 26 – 26 UJ
bertjacobs85 – 31-25 vir @NWUPUK en hulle loop voor vir die eerste keer in die wedstryd.
dieLam – Maties speel baie mooi rugby saam die ref. Hulle het seker heel week hul set plays geoefen
50 minutes gone in Johannesburg now: FNB Wits 25 (3 tries, 2 cons, 2 pens), FNB NWU-Pukke 31 (5 tries, 2 cons).
NMMU defending bloody well… looks like Maties is getting control though.
Maties penalty, and they have a lineout close to NMMU line again
Madibas under the kosh, but they get a defensive relieving penalty…
Strategy Break in the 2nd half
@ grootblousmile:
I Dont know how the ref could have ruled that pass forward. I feel like most Twitters that Madibaz was robbed
Dis pienk balle tyd….
49 @ superBul:
Janee, dit was ‘n 50/50 decision, daai ene…
varsitycup 55 minute gone in Jo’burg – try to NWU-Pukke: FNB Wits 25 FNB NWU-Pukke 39
Jinne, Madibas verdedig dat dit klap

Vir my plein n moerse fout deur REF
The Madiba’s defending like trojans! Awesome character being shown by them #
Iewers moet hier ‘n wal bars… een span kannie so bly aanval nie….
And Marx converts to make it 34-28 to UJ – he’s been impeccable all evening
15 Minutes to play in the match.
Looks like Maties are impotent on attack, like their bigger brothers at the Stormers
Die ref en Ass Ref voel soos meeste hier oor EP rugby, die arme lot sal beswaarlik n fair deal kry. Baie Partydige refereeing
UJ rack up their fifth try and regain the lead… with just over 10 minutes left in …
