Hak hak, die Bulle speel nou net so kuk soos die Stomppies.
Bring Cook en Jan op
Chabal lite has no technique, bloody dangerous for him and the opponent.
I am afraid, if it wasn’t for the huge hulking power of the Bulls, they would be in deep doodoo right now. Its all brawn and no brain right now.
Bulls penalty, from the scrum… on their own 10m line.
Great kick by Morne Steyn to touch
151 @ The_Young_Turk:Haha, is this game putting the Bulls Stormpies game into perspective, and showing just how useless the Stormpies really are?????
Oh dear whats goin on? Come on BULLS!
Is Butch the Forces tackling coach?
Bulls penalty… shoulder charge on big Flip…
Come now Bulls… do it from theis lineout!
Even if the Bulls score, this was a crap decision, not to go for posts
Geez, but poor Heineken must be pulling his hair out 🙁
Fore turnover penalty…. eish
I am getting worried, this is a one kick game
OK, now the Bulls have to get the ball first and then rebuild.
Yup, as predicted. Stupid, stupid. Just when they are desperate for points. As I said, all brawn and no brains
161 @ Just For Kicks:
If it was kickable they should have gone for posts JFK, cant take anything for granted
Have I klapped a drink already in this half?
Try Force… fair and square…
Lynn
Upon my word, but these cows are shit!
Looks like a try.
From a simple decision not to kick the penalty over, the Bulls come away effectively minus 10 points
Awarded
oef,en bulle moet gaan toer …
Force 26 / 19 Bulls
Who said that they are 14th best?
I could have warned that guy to look at the history
Somehow their only dream is to beat the Bulls
another danger team is the Kings, you heard it here first
Come on Bulls, bloody hell man.
Mapoe is off, Serfontein is on
Well done Force at least there is still time to come back from this, surely the Force will start tiring soon with that thin air
Phweeeew!
Guess my Bru prediction of Bulls by 28 is in it’s moer… hehehe
176 @ superBul:
I beg to differ. The Bulls are playing kak, that lets the Force into the game. The Kings are shit.
The Bulls will be brilliant if they stop kicking.
