@ Pietman
Lyk my dis die wetters teen die etters vandag.
Hurricanes 10 / 3 Bulls
Bulle se koppe nog deurmekaar van laasweek se game, en om dit te vererger speel Vic nie, is hul ander sleutelspeler af beseer, en is hul 3de sleutelspeler, JLP half beseer.
Bulle gaan nie game met taktiese skoppe wen nie, sal moet gaan vir driee.

Yip, that’s our problem, have swing that around soon or…
Bulld look a bit crippled.
Die sogenaamde briljante Pollard sal gou op wees JLP sukkel met sy been.
Excellent try
Had to come at some stage, unrelenting on attack these Canes
Crickey almost never recognised the Bulls side. Foegot about their new away strip they were going to play in.
Strong Canes scrum… Canes penalty!
Kick at goal for Barrett
hahaha the first time the canes has ever dominated at scrum time in 12 years
insane
Huh?
Canes loop oor die sogenaamde sterker pak van die bulle…
Hurricanes 13 / 3 Bulls
Barret sal sy hol afvee met Pollard,hoor my lied.
Holy crap barret is fast!
Canes deliberately not kicking out, wanting chances to chase the ball and so far they are spot-on!
Where are the Canes playing? That is not their home stadium.
If the Canes keep this up for 80 minutes, and the Highlanders also use their big forwards next week, the Bulls are going to be very eina by the time the get to Australia.
Master class of execution and skills by the Canes so far
Holy crap the Canes are good today… Bulls will have to get much better and strongr as the game progresses.
The Canes are destroying us in the kicking game and in the air

Go Canes!!!!!
Give them bools a proper snotting. Any team who thinks great rugby is a ‘pretty’ maul or ten deserves a walloping
Bulls penalty, as the Canes Franks slows the ball down… typical Franks play!
The pace of this game is hectic! replacements are going to be vital
Is die Canes baie goed of is die bulle baie kak vandag?
@ Puma:
The game is at Maclean Park in Napier.
Hurricanes 13 / 6 Bulls
Given the way the game has gone so far, the Bulls have done very well to still be in this. Only a converted try behind and they haven’t even had a chance to play yet. Canes will be disappointed that they are not further ahead and the Bulls will view this as a victory for them

Hello Blondie, long time no speak!
The canes are playing a kicking game perfected.
Skrumtyd=pakslae tyd vir die bulls
