Speel hy nog ? Is hy al in sy 40’s ?

Bulle 23 Leeus 19, 5 minute oor

Another Griffons penalty… Louis Strydom for goal
35

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:37 pm

He misses a relative sitter
36

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:38 pm

Valke penalty near their own 22
37

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:40 pm

Try Richter, Valke!
38

Ben-die-Bul on 17 October 2014 at 4:42 pm

Full Time. Vodacom Blue Bulls U21 23 v Lions U21 19.

Two down, one to go.

Moeilike games verby, nou vir die maklike een more.

Valke 21 / 20 Griffons

38 @ Ben-die-Bul:
Mooi, 2 junior Bloubul Finals nou al op die boeke…
41

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:45 pm

Valke relieving scrum penalty
42

Ben-die-Bul on 17 October 2014 at 4:47 pm

40: ja, darem al 2 games om na uit te sien. Ons verdien nie eintlik die CB finaal vir seniors nie, maar sal hom vat as die bal reghop vir ons more.

Weet net nie mooi van Pollard op 12 nie, jy kies mos altyd jou beste spelers in hul beste posisies. Dit gaan of ‘n groot flop wees of werk soos ‘n bom !
43

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:47 pm

Another Valke penalty, this one on the Griffons 10m line… kick to touch it is
44

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:47 pm

Kicked dead… eish
45

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:48 pm

42 @ Ben-die-Bul:
Janee, ek is teleurgesteld in Ludeke om Pollard op Nr 12 te kies
46

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:49 pm

Griffons penalty, in their own half.. just inside their own 10m line.. great touchfinder
47

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:51 pm

Griffons 5m scrum under the posts
48

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:53 pm

Great Valke defence and they earn the penalty on their own 5
49

MacroBlouBul on 17 October 2014 at 4:54 pm

Only got home now, looks like a tight game, Valke will struggle without Swart (from what I saw of him last week).
50

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:54 pm

Close game…
51

MacroBlouBul on 17 October 2014 at 4:56 pm

@ Ben-die-Bul:
WSS het nog min gedoen die jaar op 13 vir die bulle… dalk kan Pollard n vonk wees…

Pollard op 12 is okay, maar met JLP binne hom is dit maar n bitter pil om te sluk. want hy gaan als weg skop.
52

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:56 pm

49 @ MacroBlouBul:
Ja, ek sien ook Clinton Swart is gekies in die Cheetahs Super Rugby groep vir volgende jaar
53

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:57 pm

13 Minutes to go in this game… only 1 point in it!
54

MacroBlouBul on 17 October 2014 at 4:57 pm

@ grootblousmile:
En die is maar net sy derde game in die CB.

Blykbaar is hy ook deur al die junior Blou bul spanne, hy was puik verlede week gewees, vir Andre Pretorius ore aangesit.
55

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 4:59 pm

More good Valke defence… but the Purple People Eaters are pushing hard
56

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 5:00 pm

54 @ MacroBlouBul:
Ja, hy was baie goed gewees.

Dis deesdae ook nie moeilik om vir Yo-yo Pretorius ore aan te sit nie! Hy tree mos nou uit, nie waar nie?
57

Ben-die-Bul on 17 October 2014 at 5:01 pm

51: ja, het ook bietjie meer vonk van WSS verwag, maar wat hom ten minste beter maak as JJE is sy verdediging en dat hy heelwat minder knock. Soek net iemand om hom in ‘n gaping te sit ….
58

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 5:03 pm

Missed drop attempt by Louis Strydom…
59

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 5:03 pm

8 Minutes to go.. still only a point in it
60

grootblousmile on 17 October 2014 at 5:04 pm

Strydom tries another drop from halfway… missed left
