UJ 3 / 6 Tuks
Good attack by UJ, scampered out by Tuks outside their 22.
Great touchfinder by Tuks scrummie… behind the UJ backs…
UJ penalty inside their own 22, playing the scrummie behind the ruck was the call.
UJ pass the ball out to touch…. silly, silly!
Little errors and wrong options by Tuks, otherwise they would have led by far, by now!
Massive Tuks scrum on UJ ball again… and it earns them a turnover scrum.

Tuks run with UJ scrum… they still get their ball, somehow…
Massive touchfinder by Tinus de Beer… out inside UJ half… 55m gain.
Tuks really need to convert all this pressure and forward dominance…
Blocking by Tuks… obstruction… eish!

Somehow UJ are level, but one would never have thought so with the Tuks forward dominance.
Tuks need to talk hard during halftime, in order to rectify and to convert their opportunities. If they do they could blow UJ off the park in the 2nd half.
2nd Half ON!

Yellow Card to Neethling Fouche of Tuks, dangerous clean-out.
