@ nortie:
these turnovers are killing the Tahs
No try, 5m Landers scrum, Tahs carried it over to dot it down
Knock Fekitoa… Feckit!
Waratahs are playing into their hands….by now everyone should know the Kiwis thrive on loose, helter skelter rugby.
You make an error, and they punish you.
Hope the Stormers remember this as well later….keep it tight and “boring” but play percentages and win by 1 penalty instead of trying to win by scoring 4 tries
17 Minutes to go in the game

Folau read beautifully by the Landers defence

Good news for them, made good use of the Bulls bye weekend. Only thing that confuses me is it seems really early in the day to get married, is this a trend over there at the moment? Something like getting married in a beautiful outdoors location at dawn with picturesque scenes with the sun rising.
How many times has Craig called “ball off the feet” today?
Shows how loose and unstructured this game is
Fekitoa down…
@ grootblousmile:
Folau has been really lazy today
69 @ Bullscot:
Janee, getting married hat early in the day, sets you up for a looong day…. hahaha

Tahs scrum penalty on halfway, kicked out
Marty Banks on the field
Attachment:
Landers scrum Free Kick, early engage or not stable
74 @ nortie:
Hi nortie ahh didn’t think about that one, you are right bacon and eggs for your guests should be a lot less than a great big roast or something 😀
Touchie referral
TMO asked to check for a stomp by Jackpot… clear one on the neck
Landers penalty, but it’s against the replacement Tahs scrummie, not against Jackpot
73 @ grootblousmile:
Another question – is Marcel vd Merwe on the list of Boks whose game time needs to be managed in Super rugby this year? I think it’s something like only 5 games (or is it weeks) in a row if am not mistaken. This bye has come at a good time for the Bulls in this regard but surely this cannot be seen as an off weekend for Marcel vd Merwe, especially not when getting married so early in the morning he is going to arrive back for training at Loftus in need of some rest.
Grubbered forward into the goal area, Fekitoa too late to score, it’s dead in goal
81 @ Bullscot:
It’s a max of 4 weeks in a row for the Bokke…
I do not think Nocturnal Activities counts as game time… hahaha
a morning wedding is a damn good solution to those trolls that arrange a wedding to start the same time as the “big” (every) rugby game.
Offsides penalty against the Landers, 10m out… 5m lineout the result
Tahs over…
TMO
go Tahs!, this finish is going to be a cracker
Question is Try / No try
cant possibly be a try
Looked down to me…
No try ruled, 5m scrum
