High tackle on Folau missed, AB’s are lucky to get the Savea try and not 3 points against them.
That’s the way it goes
@ bdb:
Darem goeie nuus vir jou, Frans is van plan om die droogte te breek vandag:
Pretoria – Following a dismal start with two devastating defeats the Blue Bulls will be desperate to salvage their Currie Cup campaign with a home victory over the Eastern Province Kings in Pretoria on Saturday.
The hosts are experiencing a serious dry period in the Currie Cup competition having gone title-less for four years.
Blue Bulls coach Frans Ludeke made some bold selections with almost a completely new backline taking on the Kings.
“We didn’t expect to get these results in the first two weeks, but we take it and felt that we deserved it because we weren’t good enough,” Ludeke said.
“We want to change it this weekend by playing well… we can talk a lot but we know we need to deliver this weekend,” Ludeke said.
@ nortierd:
Fair 😆 …he did ok…Abs carved
Soos dit nou lyk gaan die AB maklik wen met bonuspunt.
Absoluut niks minder as 5 punte vir Bokke vanaand as hul wil kompeteer met AB nie.
Hoop net dit sneeu nie.

Told you Nortie…the passing game 😆
Uphill battle for the Wallas from here, half the game left and already 17 points behind.
Hooter goes… McCaw earns a penalty for the Blacks… quick tap…
Lemoenetyd
Let me go get some fresh juice and some big breakfast!

Passing…..the buck 😆
Verskil tussen AB en die res van die spanne is consistency. Waar AB 1 uit 10 swak games het, het die res so 3 of 4 swak games uit 10.
En hulle is fikser en het meer balvaardighede.
Nie lekker om te erken nie, maar feite.
@ Te Rangatira:
Crotty making a big impact today, don’t you think?
ABs inspired and unstoppable for a change, back to form.
We’re coming for you too Bokkie.
@ Pietman:
Yes Crotty is doing his job…very well..but Aussies not wrapping up the ball in the tackle…not stopping the off load… giving away too much quick ball too…Aussies can come back though…

124 @ bdb:
Hi bdb why would it snow? Should be blazing sunshine with temperature by kick off around 30 C maybe bit more, so if anything concerned about it being to hot for them to play at a high tempo for any length of time.
Joe Roff,….” turning point was high tackle on Folau and the resulting try at the other end”.
2nd Half ON!
138 @ NZINCHINA:
Ah, the arrogance from you again… what’s new!
… You can’t have many friends in the outside world either…
@ Te Rangatira:
138
Crotty’s out?
Is that a R. quota in the ABs?
😉
142 @ Pietman:
Hi Pietman not watching just following occasionally here, wondering how that could have been the turning point All Blacks were already ahead by 10 by that point weren’t they? Sounds like they pretty much in control of this game…
Awesome All Black defense
All Blacks get a penalty in their own 22
