Erasmus would be well to try get Brandon Thomson back, think he is a good all round flyhalf with a wonderful temperament/attitude and he hasn’t got the amount of game time at Glasgow that he deserves, even after putting in man of the match performances on the rare starts he got last season he would be benched or completely dropped for the next game, but you always see footage or photos of him with a smile on his face.
Knock by the Blue Bulls on attack…
Blue Bulls still need 1 try for a much needed bonus point.

Far too many very YOUNG South Africans overseas… far, far too many!
Pumas penalty, 3 Blue Bulls offside.

What a good player he is, whoever signed him up did well. Although I wonder if he will get tired of being the star in an under performing team who aren’t playing flowing rugby. Saw an interview with him and he seemed a bit frustrated at the lack of time on the ball at times during Super Rugby especially compared to what he was used to in 7s.
I see Lappies Labuschagne is going to be Japan captain… at least for this 1st next Test they play…
Pumas 5m penalty, popped into the corner.
Turnover Blue Bulls defensive 5m scrum.
2 Minutes to go in the match
Strong Pumas scrum… reset.
65 @ Bullscot:
He is good, yes… still a few errors on defence.
Pumas scrum penalty… 5m out.
Blue Bulls will win… but without a bonus point.
Shot at goal by the Pumas.

I think he offers so much in attack that any defensive errors are secondary, he is probably not the only one with any mistakes in defence.
Missed… Blue Bulls win and the Pumas get no Log Points from the game.
Gosh I saw Hilton Lobberts name on the Puma sheet and was surprised I didn’t realize he was still playing. When I checked he is only 33 but seems to have been around for ages, looks like he made his pro debut when he was about 20 so has had quite a long career already.

Will take the win, just a shame no bonus points for either team.
76 @ Bullscot:

Tomorrow morning at 09:35 SA Time it is the All Blacks vs Springboks
