Did the Maties score?
Surely one can’t award that, the ball is unseen
Inconclusive ruled
What was the question asked?
No way through… and Maties get a penalty for a dangerous tackle on Ryan Nell
Yellow for Kelly
Penalty Try Maties… AND a 2nd Yellow for the Madibaz
Maties 8 / 0 NMMU
Madibaz playing with the wind got 0 to show for it. 2nd half when the legs get heavier Maties playing with it its going to be like playing pool with a rope for the Madibaz
Ag no hell man why the hell dont they win a game on their own, SARU must have a investigation into this treatment the Madibas received in the games against the Maties, the untouchables
Madibaz penalty… right in front… quick tap… silly, silly, silly!
Lemoenetyd
Madibaz have been their own worst enemies, not taking 2 points earlier… and now again.
And of course there was no doubt about the 2 Yellows…. no doubt whatsoever!
As little as I like Yellow Cards, and as much as I want the Madibaz to somehow win to give Tuks a home final, I have to say the yellows were deserved
@ superBul:
Says the guy supporting the team with players who never seen how their university even looked like!
Whoever the captain is for the Madibas , he is farking stupid, it could have been easily 4 points to his team, what the hell is he thinking , its knock out stage , no bonus points for tries. Eish….. but OK he is a student.
@ grootblousmile:
The penalty try?? Was there no doubt about it?
44 @ superBul:
Daai No 7 van Madibaz was 2 keer in van die verkeerde kant af in daai 1 move, die laaste waarvan hy daai vorentoebewegende maul afgetrek het grond toe.
Ek het nie twyfel daai ene was reg nie.
2nd Half ON!
@ superBul:
Exactly! Think of it. They are testing the 2 points 5 and 3 points system for the IRB. For it to be accepted the stats must read so many more tries were scored. Stats can be misleading. Coaches under instruction to run it?
Then again its student rugby. Have fun, entertain and enjoy the moment its what its all about and always been. In the end its suppose to amateurs or semi amateurs at least. Schools in this country can take a look and a page from them (without the alcohol part of course). Maybe we will have less cheaters, drug users and kids getting injured and coaches assaulting referees as well as players.
Madibaz back to 14 players… good
@ grootblousmile:
45
met die verdediging wat al uitgestal was dink ek steeds die drie is beslis nie 100% seker gewees nie. Dit was “harsh” geel plus PT
Next break in play the Madibaz will be back to 15 men too.
Now they are back to 15 a side
49 @ superBul:
Nie net jou 1 oog is ‘n Oos-Kaap oog nie, sommer beide van hulle is… hehehe
Mens MOET bietjie objektief na die ding kan kyk, en jy is nie objektief nie.
@ grootblousmile:
OK meneer , jy luister ook na die komentaar, NE. Dink darem die komentator sien ook wat ek sien.
Bliksem, as jy onder die onderbroek of onder die rok wil staan kommentaar lewer, dan gaan soek jy vir jou ‘n ander plek, gehoor!
Ek het daai laaste comment van jou delete!
Dis asof jy doelbewus kontroversieel probeer wees… en jy is al vantevore gewaarsku.
Maties 5m out, with a lineout after a penalty
Maties knock, Madibaz defensive scrum
@ superBul:
Yes the yellow card is for a professional foul which is against the spirit of the game. The penalty try was for preventing a try being scored. If a team scores a try and a guy did something against the spirit of the game it doesn’t mean you must forget about the incident cause they scored. The guy still need to be punished
@ grootblousmile:
he? Waarvan praat jy van Jerry Collins? Hulle het die perd toegesluit in Japan Omdat hy met n 17cm mes geloop het.
Madibaz with a good attack, hope they can make it stick!
57 @ Bliksem:
Ja, en dan praat jy van flippen penisse…
Kyk man, dis eenvoudig, ek praat nie weer daaroor nie!
If the players are up to Vodacom standard the EC have quite a few that can step into the VC sides of many teams. If it is almost CC level the EC is coming, watch it
