373: jy was maar lekker stil terwyl die game aan die gang was, bietjie bang vir die groot choke gewees ?
Die choke kom teen goeie spanne, wag maar net. 😉
@ MacroBlouBul:
Indeed.
Nortie is so far up there he’s typing this with his toes.
😆
387 @ MacroBlouBul:
I thought he was wonderful today 😀
I will be hanging his poster later tonight
Kolbe MOTM
Pretty much sums up the game, he was @ Ben-die-Bul:
ja nee hy was te bang n skop en jaag span gaan sy counter attackers wen 😆
@ gunther:
Are you the one and only Gunther from Keo?
I see Rob is here as well
We only need Skop now 😯

A week is a long time in rugby VicBok.
Earlier at Newlands they also came down after putting up big scores.
So, I won’t be writing the WP off just because they klapped a poor Guppy side.
@ Ben-die-Bul:
Nama gaan ook nou opkom na die game gewen is 😀
Nou ja, ons lojale bulle ondersteuners het gehoop dat iewers teen alle verwagtinge in, Ludeke gaan verras met iets nuuts. Dalk die beste losskakel wat die land in jare gesien het, op losskakel speel, dalk ‘n agsteman kies ?
Maar, sy rugby is omtrent so voorspelbaar soos die land se politieke verkiesings, almal weet wat gaan gebeur.
Verwag die standaard Ludeke verskonings – we did not excecute well … bud de gaais shoud guts coming bak ad de end …

True, but you still had a hard time subduing a weak Bulls side even with Pro and Ross handing you easy penalties the whole time
390: 2016 ?
Newlands asked for the All Black test and for Pro to ref the final
Roux replied you cant have the A @ Ben-die-Bul:
JLP is ok vir n stop gap as ons moet, as Polly begin het op 10 was dit n heel ander game.
Mallett is rather scathing… against Pro and against the Blue Bulls selections.
400 @ Victoriabok:
Bulls are not weak, they just play dumb rugby.
They are much more physical than the Lions, so to have stood up to them physically bodes well.
Lions will run and if they make an error WP could capitalize, will be a totally different game next week
@ Ben-die-Bul:
Definitief nog n jaar van ludeke, ek weet ook nie of dit beter gaan raak onder Matfield nie

Hy is happy, sy span het die semi’s gemaak
Ou Barend is ook tevrede
Die gesukkel gaan maar net aan volgende jaar
406 @ Victoriabok:
En iewers skop wynie sy hond.
Provinces kicking game has been average all year, it is their counter attack that is dangrous.
MacroBlouBul wrote:
Nee dit gaan nie hy hou nog meer van skop en jaag
Aan die ander kant kan niemand slegter wees as Frans nie
Ek dink Pieter de Villiers of selfs Pro sal ‘n beter job doen 🙁
Victor Matfield believes in Ludeke’s type of game plan, how many times have I heard him confirm Ludeke’s summations…
If he takes over, expect more of the same!
Better the Bulls get some new blood in the coaching box…. but it won’t happen!
I think referees are doing too much to protect the player in the air.
Enjoyed my day… Have a great evening chaps…
@ grootblousmile:
maar dalk is dit net JLP, ons speel n heel ander game met Pollard.
Bokke ook met Morne en Pollard/Lambie.
Partykeer is dit maar net die speler.
@ Gumboots:
Thanks gummy, again congratulations, good luck next week.
Have you seen this?

Something Pro would like to achieve too
@ grootblousmile:
The sad thing is I don’t see either changing.
😆
WP het nie goed gelyk nie, maar ek dink hierdie sleg wen is goed vir hulle voor volgende week se finaal.
Gewoonlik is hul groot gunstelinge in uitspeel wedstryde, veral op hul tuisveld, en dan choke hulle.
Nou is dit 50/50 en almal dink die Leeus gaan oor hul hardloop. Dit maak die Pap Wiele gevaarlik, veral as die Leeus oorgerus is.
Pro Legoete… moet maar sy goete vat en boggeroff.. hy is swak!
Hy het nie die WP laat wen nie, Frans Ludeke en die Blue Bulls het… maar hy is bitter swak!
Ek dink nie dit is die bulle se skop game wat my afpis nie, ons skop swak, dit is blootweg net patetiese skoppe.
@ Ben-die-Bul:
PW se selfvertroue het n knock gevat toe Carr af is, dalk kan hulle hulself weer opbou vir volgende week.
