Bad kick-off by Shimlas, directly out, back to the middle spot for a Tuks scrum

Nouja, gesels ek maar lekker met myself, terwyl my roofkyker vrinne my nie kom bystaan nie… hoekom weet ek nie.

Tuks steal the Shimlas lineout on halfway… good kick ahead and Shimlas scrummie shanks it out on the Shimlas 5m line
35

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:18 pm

Tuks try the driving maul, Shimlas hold it up and get turnover possession scrum
36

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:19 pm

Tuks loosehead is a penalty machine… and the commentators desperately trying to talk up his virtues…

Jean Cook over the line, but is it a try?

Does not look like a try to me… foot out? Not grounded?
38

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:21 pm

Gmpfff.. different angle and it looks like a try…
39

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:22 pm

Lost over the line ruled.. 5m Shimlas scrum
40

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:22 pm

Shimlas lucky there
41

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:23 pm

Shimlas relieving penalty, about 10m from their own line
42

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:26 pm

Tuks hard back on attack… and they get a penalty deep inside the Shimlas 22
43

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:26 pm

They tap and go… close now.. Blommetjies over the line… held up… eish
44

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:27 pm

Tuks 5m scrum… that was bad finishing by Blommetjies
45

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:28 pm

Try Jean Cook, Tuks scrum walked the Shimlas right over the tryline…
46

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:29 pm

Tuks 10 / 4 Shimlas
47

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:31 pm

Shimlas attack, Adendorf comes to the rescue near the Tuks line.. Tuks scramble well and kick it to touch other side of halfway
48

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:33 pm

Helter skelter attacking by both sides… Tiaan Schoeman tackled out near the Shimlas line.

Tuks looked fast asleep in the first 20 minutes, then came back well
52

Bullscot on 18 February 2013 at 5:39 pm

@ grootblousmile:

53

Bullscot on 18 February 2013 at 5:41 pm

51 @ grootblousmile:
Thats good did see when 1st put machine on we were 4/2 behind but then ahead by time logged on, hope for loads of Tuks tries in 2nd half
54

Bullscot on 18 February 2013 at 5:42 pm

How many of these Tuks players are in or should make Bulls Super 15 squad?
55

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:42 pm

52 @ Bullscot:
Freegin hell, all of us here seems busier than last year… sign of good things amongst the R-T people and our general welfare….

Can’t say the same for the rest of the South African population, unfortunately.

My wife, Handbriekie has resigned from her job, to make it bigger and better, doing her own things… so life has really had a kick up the bumper for the GBS’s with her stuff and my new enterprises….
56

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:43 pm

2Nd Half ON!
57

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:45 pm

54 @ Bullscot:
Not many… Mbonambi could be a bencher sometime.. Tiaan Schoeman is about Bulls no 4 flyhalf…. Lohan Jacobs is about no 4 scrumhalf.

Blommetjies is about the closest…
58

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:46 pm

Good Tuks attack comes to naught as a penalty is awarded against them whilst deep on attack
59

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:47 pm

Tuks penalty, Shimlas holding on, on the ground… good touch by Schoeman
60

grootblousmile on 18 February 2013 at 5:48 pm

Baulking.. eish Mbonambi….
