Just as the stormers was getting the upper hand. We'll do the business in the return leg.

A couple stood out!

No Trolling, Bulls put 27 up against the 2020 S15 Champs, they are double that stronger then the poor Stormers.

I am prepared for the worst. Going to eat pork belly tomorrow.

Die bulle gaan net net te sterk wees vir ons. Ek verwag wel nie 'n loesing soos wat hulle die saarkies gegee het nie.

Going to come back to this in 40 minutes

Complete rugby....


The Bulls are back

Not even halfway through only the Cheetahs can catch them on the log.

Just show the quality of Jake White. I know Grobbies (haker) well. Played sport with my laaitie at Kleingim. It's unbelievable to see him play now compare to last year. Last night he outplayed the Springbok in all facets.

Bulls have only easy games from here.

Ditto van Snail & Morne. I haven't see Morne Steyn ever play like this in the past. He is Springbok class Way above the others.

White brought in the 7s players in the backline. They are super for our game. Running lines, skills like you never see before.

Maak die Bulle Bokke. They will beat the Wallabies on yesterday's performance.

Our players are hitting their form now. Exactly like Nienaber wanted. 4 matches.

Sharks are back in business

Very relieved too, I was worried that match could have been the banana skin that ended our run for the trophy. So pleased to see some real gees from the Sharks; they looked pissed off which was missing last week.

The positional changes worked. Lineouts looked much better, although Richardson is going to have to work on his discipline if he wants to keep James Venter out. Ox getting better every game. Bosch much more comfortable. Nkosi was great too, his defence on our tryline is outstanding. Just need to sort out 15. Interesting that Henco Venter was captain when Am came off.

Still unhappy about the match being called of just as we got the upper hand. Also good to see sards posting as soon as the Stormers are trailing.

Well done Bulls, great to see our greatest adversaries back and playing to their strenghts.

You're lucky the weather saved you from a 50 point drubbing.

Bulls really look good this year. Their forwards really set the tone, especially around the tackle. And I've got to hand it to Morne, the variation in his game is outstanding. Vermeulen is simply world class, he must be the best 8 in the world by a country mile. I was skeptical about seeing Henricks at 12 but he really looks the business there. Ultimately, they are being very well coached.

With so many class players in their team, I think Dobson has a lot to answer for. Their backrow is totally anonymous, and they have huge problems in their backline, especially 10, 13 and 15.

Ja I know. I fully agree that he is a massive talent, but he doesn't look like he's enjoying his rugby. Seems to struggle when defence is in his face. Perhaps 12 is his best position? He could also do with some more experience around him, it's a very young backline. But something needs to be done with him.

Agreed. Maybe he should seek other pastures, play with more experience around him.

Having said that, maybe he is just not mentally built for senior Pro Rugby? His starting 9 is of similar age, has less experience, and looked comfortable winning the RWC.
It can be that U20 rugby is his pinacle.

Stormers were kak last night, just as kak as the Sharks were the week before.

AF forgot how kak his team was.

Not at all, we were also shit. But being a Sharks fan does not bar me from commenting on the Stormers. Do you disagree with what I said about DW, or do you think he played well?

Watching More Steyn play last night makes me wonder what a player he could have been had HM and FL not made him into a kicking robot.

5 pages, a banning and a flounce.

I think that I speak for the majority of South African Rugby supporters when I say a collective "Fuck You" to the Stormers for making Ivan Van Snail look good.

Tbh I don't think Willemse is intelligent enough to be a 10. Watching him yesterday. It looked like Dobson had programmed his brain before the match and he just played on auto mode. No vision. His kickoffs were miles too long and easily contended with. He couldn't work out after the first that it wasn't working. And he had a lot of practice at kickoffs. When you see him he always looks confused. Like he can't work out what's going on. Against the likes of Morne he had no chance.

There is a world of difference between the Sharks supporters reactions to the Stormers supporters reactions. Sharks supporters admitted we had a problem. STORMERS supporters still believe they are the greatest team in the universe and their failures are Springboks

I noticed Stormers supporters seem to know they have a problem. They can see where the problems are. But because they they refuse to acknowledge their problems it will just get worse. We have the first ANC run Super Rugby run union in the history of the Game. Noone seems to care.

Oom and Handyjob are not “all the Stormers supporters”

Most of us are realistic.

Please....over thinking it.

The old ....let's poke him because he is right tactics.

Stormers supporters are the Crusaders supporters of South Africa....except they just don't have the success to back it up
They are like Crusaders supporters without the teeth

I for one cant wait to witness that great big man mountain Malherbe to single handily scrum the Cheetahs into the ground like promised. I mean just look at him, he who together with his Bok compadres destroyed the Bulls forwards, the greatest prop to grace gods green earth. We mere mortals should bow down in awe of him and there is so much to be in awe of. Also Moernaai should take the Bok 10 jersey in Pollards absence. Junkies can warm the bench a bit longer or at least until he retires.

I agree re Morne....he is in scintilating form.....

Springbok 10s

Pollard
Morne'
Jantjies
Curwin

That's the current pecking order.....

I cant see Willemse anywhere near the bok 10 jersey.
The kid should look at 12. He is way down the order at 10 and 15.....

Malherbe was the best WP player on Saturday. A few Bulls attackers ran into him, he threw a few passes and scrummed well.

I actually agree with you for once

Morne has really impressed me. It must be a maturity thing, but he seems to be really enjoying himself and is drawing on all his experience to make our younger 10s look very average. If he carries on this way, he'll play himself into Bok contention again.

Cmon guys!

No shit

These saarkies supporters are easily impressed, I mean, they even rate average players like Kok, Bosch and Richardson.
