Geez Bulls. Kry bietjie strutuur.
Flok, Bulls need Morné on… Fouché not playing or distributing well
Now Reds in the lead here. Eish man Bulls, why you never played your best side here?????
Lemoenetyd
Bulls not looking good.
Reds did all the attacking
Next week on bru I am going with all the home sides. Have Bulls by 5 today… Come on Bulls. 🙁
Coffee time.
Looking forward to the Cheets game, always exciting stuff they produce.
64 @ grootblousmile:
GBS, why is Morne on the bench? Is it just a rest or what?
62 @ grootblousmile:
I agree with you, they must bring on Morne for the 2nd half.
2nd Half ON!
Bulls penalty, clear Reds obstuction
Reds 13 / 9 Bulls
22 Drop out by the Reds
Reds player offside from a knock…. easy shot at goal for the Bulls
Reds 13 / 12 Bulls
Fark, Bulls errors costing them… silly knocks and shit
Bulls penalty after a great maul again… and Reds offside at the maul
Shot at goal… but in the running department we need someone to give direction and purpose.
Over
Bulls 15 / 13 Reds
Reds also very error-prone…. not the clinical Reds of a few seasons ago
Digby Ioane down… freeky haircut and all
Mapoe with a tip-tackle… TMO
I might have underestimated how rubbish the Reds are. A return to the rubble Reds days it seems. The Bulls really need to win this.
Yellow for Mapoe….
He jumped over him, terrible officiating.
Now Bulls need to really defend with 14 men
83 @ Die Valk:
I also thought he jumped… but hey if the 1st Yellow was a Yellow, then this must be too.
Try Quade Copper
Reds 20 / 15 Bulls
The ref has given the Reds some territory and 6 points, but imo if the Bulls chose their best team and came out all guns blazing they would have won this. Still not over, but I can’t understand the logic behind rotation so early in the comp.
Come on, bring Morné on… just flippen do it.
Also bring Jan Serfontein on for Francois Venter
Juandré Kruger on, so too Morné Steyn…
