One makes one’s own luck, Blue Bulls were dismal
Goed so dat ons nie daar gedruk het nie, as jy sleg verloor moet jy baie baie sleg verloor, sodat die manne dit kan onthou vir die toekoms wat gebeur as jy passieloos en doelloos opdaag vir ‘n wedstryd.
Blou was Flou Bulle vandag op Nuweland
@ JanMurrayBok:
Moenie Kwas vergeet nie!
264 @ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
Ok thanks Piet doesn’t sound good very inconsistent after last weeks win, maybe its better not able to watch it.
Finally, the final whistle goes…
Final Score: DHL Western Province 42 / 6 Vodacom Blue Bulls
Geluk WP, kan niks sê teen so groot pakslae nie.
Congrats WP, I bow before your game today!
274 @ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
O ja daai een ook. Anyway very disapointing but congratulations WP!
266 @ grootblouBokJan:
haha. I know but at least you can laugh…lol.
… and to make matters worse, my Bru is in tatters…. hehehe…..
@ bidibidi-jan:
Dis wragtag so….mens weet nie eintlik wat om te se nie….waar het die fout gele?
Ek het sommer moedeloos begin raak toe Fouche daai skepskop probeer het.
Congrats Province. Now that was a real hiding your team gave the Bully Boys.
OK, so watter hond skop ek eerste…. miskien moet ek kaffee toe gaan!
And thats it. Well played WP. Wow, what a turn around in a week. Just one of those nights when everything went to hand. They looked to retain possession, they created spaces, and they played with belief. Nothing went right for the Bulls. When, on the few occasions they tried to swing it wide, there were knock ons, forward passes, and seemingly, no gaps. A good all round performance by the Province boys, with stand out performances by Siyabonga Ntubeni, Deon Fourie, Gio Aplon, Marcel Brache, JP duPlessis, and Damian de Allende when he came on. Well done Province
Ok mense, ek gaan maar wallas, dankie eers vir die saam gesels.
Tjorts.

Are you out of Edit Mode?
287 @ grootblouBokJan:yes
Well, what a surprise. Never saw this coming.
Bulls didn’t pitch up so difficult to know what to make of it all.
Maybe, it was all summed up when a Porra (de Allende) dived over for WP for their bonus point try.
Surreal..
Cheers lads, catch up on the rebound. Glad to see Scarra gets MOTM, well deserved.
286 @ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
Cheers my Bloubul broer… jou vrou voel seker vreeeeslik vrolik… miskien is jy lucky vanaand… hehehe
Now the Bulls know what it feels like to drop the soap in a prison shower

Yip and he was so pleased especially that his mother was there to watch. Felt so good for him.
Well done to your team bud. That was a real thrashing you gave Bulls.
This was a rout of note!
289 @ fender:
Good to see your team getting tries again.
Not 1 Blue Bull played well… not 1!
WP players who impressed more so than others were Deon Fourie, Scarra Ntubeni, Nic Groom, Demetri Catrakilis, Marcel Brache, Gio Aplon
Okay I am out of here.
See our Boks left for Perth tonight. Hope they play some of this cracking rugby next week and none of that kick and crash ball stuff. We need to beat the Aussies.
Cheers everyone.
Well… let’s just chase this one over 300 and bow out gracefully….
Thanks ouens. Siya later.
