I’m backing the Bulls here, at home, surely they can’t lose to the Kings?
Luke walks on water.
Moftus should be a walk in the Park.
@ nortierd@1:
A Loss to the Kings would be just what the doctor ordered. But no, they will win and everything will be awesome in the fairy land of blue bulls management.
Luke, even the Bulls should klap the Kings.
@ leon:
Even if they lose to the Kings, things won’t change overnight.
They lost away to the same two teams they lost away to in SR, so I’m not sure why it comes as a surprise all of a sudden.
If the Bulls win today, either the WP or Lions must lose, so they will have 1 win less than those two sides, not quite all doom and gloom yet.

If only he played for the Boks last week then….. 🙄
In case Bullscot is reading at some stage, France U/ 18 leading Wales 6/0 after 33 minutes
Derick Hougaard in studio.
France U/18 9-0 Wales U/18
Wales get the 1st try of the match.
France 9-7 Wales after 45 minutes
Loftus is so empty, it’s frightening
Did they manage to get a 100 people at loftus?

Doesn’t look like it.
These are the times when the captain thanks the fans by name after the match
Ludeke teen Luke, baie moeilik, weet nie vir wie en op wie jy moet skree nie.
❓
Even some southern stand suites are shut…never seen that before.

Frightening isn’t it?
And, I see WP jerseys, Bok jerseys and then some Bulls jerseys
Loftus is voller as daar skoolrugby is, maar gaan die bestuur en afrigters die boodskap kry ?

Back jou boytjies, hulle sal vandag die job doen.
Both sides out on the field now.
You say it is an empty Loftus? So I won’t have a problem leaving work later… 😆
Nice of Ludeke to get Bongi match fit for when he moves down to us 😆

Bulls win a penalty from the kick off.
Jantjies sets up the line out
Good line out win and another penalty for offside.
Kick at goal coming up
Derick Hougaard in studio said he thinks Tony is the best kicker in the Union, he also feels that if he gets fitter and loses a couple of kilos he might go on to higher honors

Emptier than a slut’s heart, believe me, you should breeze past Eastwood Str…
I remember the days I had to park at the 224 and walk from there, no parking.
Kick hit the upright and an error by Watson gives the Bulls a nice attacking scrum 10m from the EP tryline.
Goeie skop deur Jantjes …..
Bulls on attack, but like last week, just can’t get over the tryline.
Penalty again 5m from the tryline.
EP will cop a yellow soon, being penalized since the kick off
Jantjies kicks the goal
Bulls 3-0 EP
