Sal bietjie vir ‘n verandering goed wees as Tuks vir Maties behoorlik kan bliksem
Tuks scrum Free Kick, not straight into the scrum
Tuks scrum, 9m out, just left of the posts
Tuks full arm scrum penalty, Maties tighthead too far extended
Maties defensive scrum on their own 5, just next to the sticks
Reset scrum
Maties clear their lines well.
Lemoenetyd
Ref blew the halftime whistle more than a minute early!!
Tuks looks like the danger side in this year’s Varsity Cup, so far.
Shimlas also looking strong
UJ leading 10-0 against Pukke
That will mess the whole Monday’s predictions up
Ikeys leading by 32-8 over NMMU
Pukke val uit die bus uit
UCT came from 29 / 0 (or thereabouts down) against Tuks and made the scrore respectible against Tuks, but still lost by 14, I think.
So, it’s not overs cadovers!
2nd Half ON!
Try Tuks, Human!
Booom!
Maties opt to use their White Card challenge
Try stands, no knock
Tuks 37 / 8 Maties
Hahaha, nou hardloop Tuks met die mauls!!
Not out again… flok!
Kirsten of Tuks over the line, but held up
Tuks scrum drives through Maties scrum…. could very easily have been a Penalty Try.
Tuks 5m penalty, popped out
Maties knocks in the lineout, but now it’s a Tuks scrum 8m out
Try Kleinsmith, Tuks.
TMO
Try stands and it’s starting to look really ugly for Maties now
Tuks 45 / 8 Maties
Maties penalty, 6m out
Another Maties penalty, 7m out… kicked onto the corner
Tuks steal the lineout
Tuks power just far too strong for Maties… men against boys
Tuks run the ball blind off the scrum and make a lot of yards, until Kleinsmith is bundled out
Tuks in on the side of the maul, penalty and Maties survive
