I fully expected du Preez to nail Kruger but jeez it was a surprise. Must be Botha but I'm sure Kruger has worked hard. The Bulls scrum looked the best I'd seen it in years but it's only one game and can all chnage quickly when one Benn Robinson comes to town.

Sorry Mixed up my newbies. vd Heever it is. I read that he clocked a faster time over 25 metres than Habana last year.

Ash the Bulls played two new wings becuase of Habana leaving and the injury to Ndungane. The rookie, van den Heever (who is lightning quick) looks a little suspect on defense. Mametsa on the other wing is also flakey which is why he has never cracked it at this level (he played for the Bulls...

Lol. Only way we'll win it again is to be very reasonable.

Big forwards driving it up is attractive if you come from Pretoria but I get your point. :) In the Bulls case you can bet on simplicity although they have combined it well with moving the ball wide. The Duvenhage try last week was a good example and well the semi and final last year not...

JJJ by the same token the Bulls have to cope with changes as well, altough 1-10 is the old machine. The backline is quite unsettled and it showed in defense. Run hard at whoever partners Olivier. George will be okay. Give him some time. I think he is being written off way too quick. He would...

Rugby League is always in shit, but they seem to be able to somehow manage their shit. Contrary to popular belief, one code will gain very little from another's shit.

Good news for the Brumbies is that centre Jaco Pretorius is out for a week and blindside Dewald Potgieter will not be ready. This presents and interesting opportunity to move Olivier to 13 and play JL Potgieter at 12 but Olivier has been potent at 12 so not sure they will do that. The...

You can't vote for girls. Read the fineprint.

It's official. NTA has gone nuts. He is confusing Ben Alexander and Al Baxter. I mean jeez, both have an X in their name but I expect more from a prop, and a a well educated one at that ;)

The Sharks are in Natal. What the fuck are you on about?

So now we have established Carter can tackle can we at least agree that he crabbed accross the field , still can't pass, and still talks too much? :fishing

I am basing that statement on ten years of promise, talking it up pre-season, and then disintegrating. Enough talk out of the Cape. Let's see some action for a change.

Don't get me wronmg, as a Bulls man I am very worried about this game. The Brumbies can take the Bulls on upfront and unsettle them, esp with Rocky back. The Brumbies will have to toghten up around the fringes - the Force fatties found holes driving it up. I am just sorry that Bakkies is...

True they let in a lot of points but the will improve on defense. At the 44min mark the Bulls were up 34-14 and went to sleep. Their cover tackling will improve hugely with Potgieter playing a sweeping role and Hougaard will be back on the wing and his defence is way better than the guy who...

Blaauw, the Stormers LH might miss the game. He has been a huge find for them and without him the Tahs could apply a lot of pressure on the scrum. Regardless one never knows what to expect from the Stormers, even at home. Should be a cracker. Tough to make a prediction though. Stomers have a...

Barnes needs to improve about 100%. Things looked more organised when Hangers came on and his kicking game was about 99.99997654% better. Jowitt was nowhere to be find. Too big a moment? They have options though with Denis and the Boerseun.

In my opinion, too many players can't make the step up, especially in defense. They have some very good wings - Mapoe, Nokwe, Demas and attack fairly well. Just canlt keep it up consistently. The scoreline flattered them. They scored a great individual opening try, and after about 45 mins the...

Dollie. Little bloke. SA rep schools and under 21. Tried for Brumbies. Didnlt want him. Has an agent that has tried to peddle him to everyone and his dog. Put a rumour out that the Sharks are negotiating with him which they denied. God knows, he is better than nothing. At this point ANY 10...
