steyn nou al 2 grooooot hits gevat.
Luckily Morne back up and OK.
Lemoenetyd.
Kameeltjietyd!
Interesting half. Flew past. Both sides absolutely equal at the moment. Whichever side comes out with fewer mistakes in the second half will take this one
Needs a better Bools performance in the 2nd half. Can be done.
Tyd vir europe of japan dean
Chiefs gaan hierdie 2 spanne groot pak slae gee.
Hope we get those 50/50 going our way now. In NZ the home team always get them.
While this game could still go either way, I feel it’s there for the Bools to take in the 2nd half.
Nick i believe YOU, Bulls should be 11-3 up now. Stupid ref
Neither of these teams are showing anything for the Chiefs to be worried about though…
Anyone watching Skysports would have seen Michael Lynach giving the Bulls a pasting for giving the ball away too much – mainly through Hougaard. Must say, agree. Hougie not cutting it for me anymore, I’m afraid. Some poor decisions by him, missing a couple of potential gaps
As Ludeke wil wen moet hy reserwe stutte opbring, Jano op skrummie en Hougies op vleuel.
@ Just For Kicks:
Yip, Hougie has really lost form completely. Maybe he needs to go overseas…

2nd Half ON!
Great start by Bools
Tryyyyyyyyy Grant Hattingh!
TMO
Great effort, but don’t think it’s a try
TRY awarded!
No, not a try, back for the Bulls penalty.
Grond geraak, dankie.
Tough call
No try unfortunately, dammit!
Brumbies 16 / 14 Bulls
173: daai een gras halmpie was 10 cm lank en het die bal geraak, hehe
Net jammer by die volgende skrum staan ons weer 3 af, eish ja.
Better kicking now. That try will be debated for a while, I am sure, but I agree, no try
Kommaan Bulle, gaan kry nou ‘n regte drie die keer!
