72 @ McLook:
Enjoy the wine McLook. Early morning here, so no wine for us yet…. that will come later during the Sharks game… hehehe.
Crusaders 22 / 12 Bulls
Come on Bulls!
Only 10 points in it now. Bulls get a try they right back in this.
Bulls must consolidate on their own balls, get and keep possession…. and do the basics well
Ag fok… try Marshall.
Bonus point to boot
Mooi Jurgen Visser…
Crusaders 29 / 12 Bulls
Wynand Olivier off injured
Ciao a tutti. Come on BOOLS! Moer die Saders manne!
It’s embarrassing to see the bulls so easily out smarted. Saders just ripped the ball out of a bull trying to run over the opponent and went on to score.
Louis Fouché on for Wynand Meisiekind… this is where we needed Francois Venter, who is not even on tour
Saders scrum penalty, against Kirsten
Grant Hattingh on for Flippie
Saders 10m away, Bulls steal the ball
Bulls will probably have to concentrate for next weeks game, this one seems gone for them, well for now it seems. Save the energy for next week I think.
Chiliboy on, Werner Kruger on
Bulls steal a Saders lineout
Will be interesting to see how Kings go against Saders next week. They were wonderful last night againt the top kiwi side.
Bulls scrum penalty, against Crockett.
Good kick to touch
Maul them Bulls!
McLook, toema – ek besef julle Kiwi’s drinkie vroegoggend Vaaljapie nie, hehe!
Jacques Potgieter also on
Bulls Free Kick, Saders not opening the lineout up
Fruean opened JJ l;ike a can of worms.
