Maruis Joubert getting the bird from everywhere on the stadium
Why didn’t the Bools get a scrum penalty there?
23 Minutes to go in the match
Glad to see Vermaak at SH.
And finally Vermaak is on!

Maruis?
Take the kick Bullies!
Bools looking so much more composed now. As long as they don’t do anything daft, they will take this one easily Brumbies, the ones making the mistakes now, and they’re paying dearly for it! Goooooooo Booooooooools
Manne, mag ek iets sê oor die ref of dink julle hy het ‘n wonderlike game ?
Bools have shown more passion in the 2nd half. They look like they have decided that they actually want to go and face the Chiefs in Hamilton!
Jano on, Hougie to wing… Bjorn over to right wing, Akona off
Bulls penalty slotted, Bulls take the lead.
Bulls 20 / 19 Brumbies
Hopelik is daardie 3 punte die momentum skuif !
@ The_Young_Turk:seems like you and I are the biggest Bools supporters on here!
Another Bulls penalty deep in their own half… excellent touchfinder!
Ref has definitely been harsher on the Bools than on the Bumblies. Trying to hard to be seen as unbiased…
Nog n drietjie bulls asb ek rook myself vrot en suip soos n vis
Kom Bulle, goeie dryf beweging.
The Bools are running strong…
@ ben-die-bul:
Ref is n gatkruiper
Just look at Vermaaks passing, so much crisper than Hougie. Massive difference behind the forwards now.
Jeeeez, how offside are the Brumbies allowed to play?
Craig Joubert is having a shocker
Flok, ek het 2 Kameeltjies gelyk nodig … en ek kannie rook IN die Press Box nie!!
I think that all this incessant ref-bashing means that you’re really not able to enjoy the rugby….you’re missing a great game.
Bumblies have had a lot less possession in the 2nd half but they won’t just lie down and die. They will have to be crushed into the Loftus turf.
wat gaan aan daar op fokoptus
Daft by Jurgen Visser
Brumbies penalty… a Bulls player on the bench interfering… groot grap!
@ Just For Kicks:
Of course i dont enjoy this reffing at all
wat n bumd ass doen dit
Bulls steal the Brumbies lineout… justice… and Chili monsters Kuridrani….
