Good stuff JFK although pity Lions get losing bonus point. Glasgow v Zebre is on BBC Alba if your interested in the 65th minute now.
Well, 2 from 2 for me on Bru so far, my Bru pick for this one was Sharks by 7, they won by 6.
I think nothing can save the Bulls now
220 @ Bullscot:Just off to watch it, thanks
With Pyrgos playing so well Matawalu was brought on the wing.
219 @ Just For Kicks:
Tjorts, see you tomorrow!
223 @ Just For Kicks:
Nae bother cheers mate
Good night all time to go.
222 @ superBul:
The Free State Cheetahs lost today, a good win by the Blue Bulls will push them pretty close to the Cheetahs Log position.

Tjorts Bullybeef!
Remember, the Griquas / Blue Bulls game is at 14:00 SA Time (12:00 GMT) tomorrow.
223 @ Just For Kicks:
Tyrone Holmes is no 20 for Glasgow, Josh Strauss has already been subbed off.
The 2 Game Threads for the Griquas / Blue Bulls match and the Springboks / Wallabies match is already up… I will be your Captain for those.
We will also have a MIDNIGHT Game Thread for the Pumas / All Blacks match tomorrow night, game starts at 00:40.
Well done my Sharkies. Also well done to Lions as that was a brilliant game to watch from both sides.
Sure my Sharks struggled in the scrums and lineouts but we were superb everywhere else.
Have to wonder which team Venter will select for next week? That is a mystery for sure with the rotation policy. Though next week they did say they would select the best team and stick with that team for the rest of the CC. Are our Boks allowed to play CC this year? Not sure about that as I did read awhile back that Boks might not be released back to their teams for CC. Not totally sure about that, but if my Sharks got their Bok front row back with Psdt we would be sorted in the scrums and lineouts.
Go my Sharkies for next week.. 🙂
