Kwas penalty for a side entry… how was that a side entry???
67 @ Just For Kicks:
Hello JFK, had to go out so missed last 15 minutes at least of the game last night but from the report think that was when Zebre were at their best getting their two tries while Glasgow struggled, some folk saying there were so weird subs made by Glasgow but also can’t have helped that Grey was off with the yellow for a while, that must have helped Zebre because if I’m not mistaken he was on for Kellock and with Rob Harley (who was lock for the night) also being subbed (by Holmes) meant Glasgow would have played without any recognized lock on in the time Gray was injured, plus with Strauss being subbed they must have been quite light so made it far easier for Zebre to get go forward ball. But hey a win is a win just a pity didn’t get the bonus point try.
GREAT BULLS!
Blue Bulls steal yet another Kwas lineout…
Bulls 5m penalty… they can nail it shut here
Blue Bulls 33 / 10 Griquas
92 @ Bullscot:
Oeps meant to say in the time Gray was off due to the car not injured
Great Blue Bulls maul from the kick-off receipt…
Bongi Mbonambi (Little Mike Tyson) is soooo good!
Tryyyyyyyyyyy William Small-Smith again!
Nice stuff from the Bulls, They certainly are getting better game by game
Blue Bulls 40 / 10 Griquas
Blue Bulls penalty for collapsing the maul…. things really going their way now

103 @ smallies:
Tjorts… geniet hom
Try again, Paul Willemse… booomfa!
92 @ Bullscot:Hi Bully, yes, also switched off before the end, was amazing how Glasgow suddenly started going backwards – it was almost as if someone just switched the lights off! But as you say, it was an away win, and that was important
Blue Bulls 47 / 10 Griquas
Blue Bulls running rampant now….
Just a last little forward pass, 5m out…
Glad the Blue Bulls will be over this hurdle with full marks… will be just 2 Log points behind the Free State Cheetahs after this game
Kwas defensive scrum penalty…
Jacques du Plessis has had a strong game… for a change
12 Minutes to go in the match.
Vleis Engelbrecht also on for the Blue Bulls
Kwas, apart from the scrums, offered very little in this game
Tryyyyyyyyyyy Jurgen Visser… nails in, game shut down
Blue Bulls 52 / 10 Griquas
Blue Bulls maul it up oodles of meters…. and they get the penalty
Not kicked out… good kick return for Kwas
107 @ Just For Kicks:
Yes you would have thought that as they were still in need of 1 try to get the bonus point they would have been pushing harder, but with that lock position and Strauss being subbed off maybe they were struggling physically, but lets take nothing away from Zebre who got their first win of Pro12 ever last week. Glasgow’s defence has been a strong part of their game this year with some really committed hits by their players – so much so that in their previous 3 games they did not conceed any tries, so Zebre did well to get those two when they had extra numbers.
