Can the Pumas hold on to win this one?
Kwas scrum penalty… 5 min to go
Kwas penalty just inside the Pumas 22… they basically have to go for touch
5m Lineout…
Pumas defending like demons…. eventually Kwas get a penalty.
Yellow card to Giant Mtyanda
About a minute left
Try Pumas, mauled over!
Scores are level, kick to come
Final Score: GWK Griquas 21 / 19 Steval Pumas
Phweeew… close game, right down to the wire!
Well, only 2 points seperate the sides… and the next game is in the Pumas backyard in Nelspruit!
Folks, remember to get up early tomorrow… the Bledisloe Cup Test between the All Blacks and Wallabies start at 08:35 SA Time (06:35 GMT)… live right here on the friendly rugby website!
Goeie wedstryd vir 78 minute, net jammer die ref het die laaste sê gehad om die wenner te bepaal.
Schoeman is 4 keer gestraf, 2 keer ‘finaal’ gewaarsku maar geen geelkaarte nie.
In laaste minute kry Pumas 2 strafskoppe teen hulle, geen waarskuwings en toe sommer ‘n vinnige geelkaart. Game over.
Geluk ou Kaplan, ook maar goed jy tree af.
Jammer Pumas, julle is beroof, sterkte vir Nelspruit wedstryd.
A mere win by more than 2 points by the Pumas next week, will be enough to win the Promotion / Relegation battle
So, this ends the Pumas unbeaten run for the Currie Cup season.
Next week’s game is now even more difficult to call.
Griquas look the more intimidating side as far as raw power goes… but one can see that the Pumas are well-coached and make the most with what they have.
One has to remember that 2 (or is it 3) possible Griquas tries were denied by means of TMO calls…
Ahh tough for Pumas well done Griquas. Was hoping Pumas would win. Didn’t see game but I guess this confirms the gulf between the two Currie Cup divisions. Team that has been doing so well and unbeaten in one division beaten by team that that has been struggling by 3 tries to 1.
Wel kom ons kyk na die scenario uit ‘n ander oog punt. Ons weet nou verseker dat die Kwaste nie Premier division materiaal is nie.
As die kwaste verloor teen die pumas met 3 punte dan is hulle klaar.
Dan bo op dit dink ek ook die Pumas verdien om bietjie groter rugby te speel.
Dan het ek ook net 1 vraag. Hoekom lyk die kwaste se veld so K@K. Ek weet van hoerskole in Kimberley wat se rugby velde beter lyk as die kwaste sin.
Die Pumas gaan nou deur ‘n donkerte, hulle verloor ‘n afrigter en kan heel moontlik nie volgende jaar in die premier division speel nie.
