Started with a brilliant steal in the air by Akona, a good forward drive by Spies, quick throug hands Try in corner by Lionel Mapoe
Conversion over
Blues 6-10
another up and under but Wynand notable to control it like Akona did earlier
TRY Akona
Try Ndugane!!
This is great play by the Bulls, just like NZ teams always do, ball did the work
Morne kick missed
Blues 6-15 Bulls
Morning Gents.
I’m here in front of the PC trying to finish some work for my mad client who’s arranged a meeting for 08h00 today, and I have an 11h00 tee off in Centurion.
No rest for the wicked eh?
Daren’t switch on the TV or no work will get done.
Eish. The things we do for survival!
Where is the head Webmonster? Fallen asleep?
Bulls speel baie goed op die oomblik
Steyn you bloody stupid, Bulls on the rampage again and you kick a stupid drop, missed by a mile
Mole, mole alle rugbyvoIe.
I have just woken up to the news that another superbru pick of mine is fading, hehehehehe!
Mooi Bulle!!!
Steyn is really not trusting or believing in his own back line. What a useless kick.
OK the arm was out for a Bulls penalty
He miss again, he is having a shocker
29 min
Blues 6-15
@ Pietman:
More Pietman. Hoe lyk die woestyn?
@ Scrumdown:
Same here, on my way to work, but fokkit, I am going to watch the Bulls first.
As you say, what we wouldn’t do for earning a living…
Steyn i totally out of sorts today , all the time in the world and his kick is charged down
More oom Pietman
@ Scrumdown:
Hello bru, nee man, lyk ok hier, dankie.
Maar ek nie vanmore lus vir hierdie klomp sandtrappers nie, ek verlang die Karoo en Boesmanlandn lekker skaaptjops oppie kole vandag, eishhh. e
@ superBul:
Bulle speel goed, soek net vir Pollard daar, Morne maak droog.
Bulls almost over, they had the Blues on the rack, just too slow on the goal line
Waar is die Grootbloulykswadrywer vannie Panne? Slaap hy nog?
Morne hot and cold today. Another Shyte kick by Morne.
Rene Ranger is a good runner with ball in hand i love his speed burst, well stopped this time
Bulls pack playing really well.
Morne is kicking out direct, what the hell is wrong. We only have Louis Fouché their to help out. Maybe Jurgen Visser will
@ McLook:
Yup, they should have been further ahead though.
Would be great if Saffa teams could make it 3-0 this weekend.
One more try just before half time will be helpful. Go Bulls.
Lemoene tyd
Blues 6 – 15 Bulls
Bulls moes baie verder voor gewees het. Het klomp kanse verspeel.
Vermaak is kookwater. Bulle moet nou net kophou en die bal hou, hulle speel kookwater rugby! Jammer Morne is so wobbly.
Bulls could and should have scored at least anothe 10, hope they come out second half and continue this play. Morne needs a klap or two to wake him up.
GBS wa is jy? Lig jou gat tjomma….
