@ Sharks_forever:
Morning my Sharks brudda. We can sit with our feet up and no nerves today as our Sharks can’t lose having their rest week…
@ grootblousmile: Yeah they seem to have slowed th Canes down,
Not too bad an outcome for the Bulls in the 1st half, considering that the Canes did ALL the play.
Good solid Bulls defence, that much was pleasing.
It’s great how we are still in the game, but I think replacements will be vital.
@ Puma:
Lol yup good morning bro, hope you are well?
Hope also that we do not have any more unreported injuries either, because from heon in we have a long stretch.
The bulls have already replaced 2 loose forwards, while Jacque Engelbrecht has been a ghost so far.
This is a good game for the Pretorians to win.
Their fitness (or lack thereof) will be the decider.

Bloed toets was negatief, so ek is darem nie aanspreeklik vir daai snotgesiggie nie
@ Sharks_forever:
For sure hope no moreinjuries as we have lost some big players. So far replacements are doing well. Wish somehow we had PSDT coming back. Wonder who Jake is bringing in.heard he is looking for another Lock. Aldo saw Fransie limp a bit after he took that monster kick last week. Think the reason he refused the next long kick. We really can’t afford to lose him this year. He is playing some of his best rugby in years.
@ Pietman:
Baie swartes het al vir my gese dat Bantu Education n beter gehalte was as die skole nou.
Die mees suiwer afrikaans wat ek hoor is in die townships want afrikaans is n cool taal en dus leer almal dit,ek ken tot n jong swart voorman wat so 22 is wat suiwer afrikaans praat en hy brei soos n kapenaar.
Snaakse game, Bulle sukkel en het ‘n paar beserings, maar nog in die game.
09:11 @ Scrumdown:
and Sharkie – Hey guys was thinking just before the start of the game if by chance we didn’t win it who would be the ‘kenners’ scape goat as there is no Johnno Ross playing today, maybe Hougaard or wait for it possibly even the jersey is too blame, eish human behaviour is sometimes disappointingly predictable 😀 GO BULLS!
09:29 @ Bullscot:
Some Sharks supporters certainly have a perverse facination with the Bulls.
Anyway, it’s their problem, not ours.
@ Bullscot:
“If we had Matfield playing…”
There is going to be your main excuses and lots more if’s and but’s.
2nd Half ON!
Gooooooooo Bulls!
@ Fern:
Threw in some grammar errors so that macrobull can grasp the jest of the sentence.
@ Puma:
Fransie is ok, not sre about another lock coming in? Will see or hear soon I am sure.
@ Fern:
Ahhh didn’t think of that one but no worries will be no need for excuses. Come on Bulls lets get the win and only 3 tries to go for the bonus point too.
Scrum on Halfway, after a great tackle which made Hougie knock
09:11 @ Bullscot: You can always blame apartheid.
@ grootblousmile:
Get over yourself,the bulls are playing so we are making relevant comments.
By the same token could we then say that you have a perverse “facination” with yourself tinged with a heavy dash of narcissim?
