Bulle se toer het eers makliker gelyk, maar al die spanne wat hul moet speel is hierdie jaar baie beter.
@ MacroBull:
I have never met Fern but everyone that has says he is a terrific bloke and nothing like he is on the blogs. So really he is onlu winding some up and that is all. Nama met him as well and said he was a good bloke and others here.
Well done Force… Deserved winners…
Missed drop goal by Quade Cooper…. Reds lose AT HOME!
Wow! What a finish…and upset!
Well done Forece that was a GREAT win. Wish i had gone with them on bru. Only just climbed 10 places now will drop again… 👿
@ Puma:
No I have met him. He is a real plonker… 😛
@ nortierd:
We will have to see what happens, I think it is quite possible that Flip was captain while Vic is porgressively moved into the team, then post tour, Vic could take over and play a much bigger part in the team.
Didn’t the Bulls last year also rotate the team a few times on tour? I expect a few changes next week, that might be enforced now anyway.
Final Score: Wstern Force 32 / 29 Reds
Ag damn it. Meant: Force…. 🙄
Friday a good day on Bru… Saturday a crap day on Bru… This is becoming quite a habit…

Jeez Force laying in 4th on the log. What a turn around for them this year.
@ Puma:
No I am sure he is a nice bloke, but I mean his intentionin winding up is fun and humour… but then he also gets wound up. haha
@Gummi
You bent Brokie…….
Actually Fern is quite different in person. When behind the keyboard he becomes Mr Hyde…
@ nortierd:
Stem saam. Sou vandag gewen het met hom as kaptein, en sy lynstaanspel. Vic se bestuur bevoordeel dalk die Bokke, nie die Bulle nie. Teen die tyd dat Bulle klaar getoer het gaan hul dalk 10de lê en war dan, dan moet oom Viv ekstra hard speel om span onder top 6 te kry, wat nie veel beteken nie.
As hy goed genoeg is, moet hy as kaptein speel, al is dit dan 60 min of tweede helfte. Flip nie te sleg nie, maar nie in dieselfde klas nie.
Next game is in a few hours… at 15:00, Cheetahs vs Chiefs.
In the meantime there is some Vodacom Cup rugby from Blingfontein.
