Sharks got rattled, they didâ€¦ Bulls had the most impressive start i have seen in a long time, but thats that. Another 10 mins of that game, and sharks would have had it in the bag. Bulls well done, but Sharks remain the better team as a whole and the one that could possibly take it to the end 80 mins to 80 mins to 80 mins.

Donâ€™t thinks Bulls will fire like that again, and even if they do Crusaders wonâ€™t be rattled out of their impressive defence like we were in the first 25 min.

Unless its a home semi, the Bulls have fakall chance. What a shame they only just managed to squeak out the Sharks who travel much better.

Not only at the Bulls,they are however our top side and really should have delivered more this year.The Sharks have surprised and improved dramatically,the Cheetahs are in their debut season,the Cats are currently not deserving of any comment and the Stormers are worth a coloumn on their own.The Bulls had the most to lose this season and cannot be satisfied with this season as it stands.I would love nothing more than see the Bulls sneak into the play-offs and come home with the title,but I am sure there are few who would dispute the slimness of that chance.

hi guys, how about this scenario!

If bulls win their last 2 games with bp they end up on 43. If saders loose their last 2 games (bulls, Brumbies) without any bp they stay on 42.
if thas and canes win one match the saders are out of the semis.

How about that!!!!!!!

Look on the bright side. We can now concentrate on the CC where, at least, 2 SA sides will make the final.

Surely you can not aim your post just towards the Bulls?

There is some real genius thinking in the Bullpen if we hadn’t lost to the Reds,if the TMO didn’t shaft us,if,if,if,if.It’s quite simple really never mind the opposition if you ain’t good to win enough you will be an also-ran. The Bulls are a good side,unfortunately not a great one.The S14 has highlighted weaknesses in their game and a lack of evolution has allowed the opposition to better counter the Bulls strenghts.If the Bulls really want to be a force in this competition they are going to have to improve tactically as this year they have not been consistently good enough to be regarded as real contenders.

Ya jondood – not so sure – reckon the Bulls got lazy as they have shown against – the Brumbies, Sharks, Force and the Reds – someone needs to let them know 80 minutes constitues a game not 20, 40, 60….

That last try of Mortlock came from a knock on.

I saw it with my own eyes.

cab – you can add the loss to the Brumbies as well……

actually jondood i thought the bulls would qualify for a semi after their sharks win, but looking at the log, there’s a good chance they might not, even if they beat the stormers and crusaders.

thats why i look back at the loss to the reds, ridiculous.

Rub it in.

It was disgraceful.

I still believe that is the final nail in our coffin.

But one can hope.

actually just looking at the log, the bulls loss to the reds was pisspoor.

hi all,

**** sitting at loftus leading by 24 pts i thought we had it in the bag… Not happy with the way we let the sharks back into the game!! Bulls have been lacking that aspect the last few months… They even let the cheetah’s back in the CC final!!

A win is a win!! Never seen more scared sharks players on a field in my life… Bakkies even handed T Brown a little pakslae…

Bring on the Crusaders before we clean the stormers!!

londonshark …yes there’s nobody really pushing him but two days in 3 I prefer Barry at 12 and JDV at 14 or 13 ,and WO is in need of some more play. I say pick em all and work with em all and work hardest with JDV as he has it for sure. If he doesnt step up ,use Barry and get WO on the filed too. But i suppose these are our 3 choices. Watch Jake pick big *** and perhaps Bosman as backup (which is ok i suppose)

BIG HAHAHAHA at Earl “Bite the hand that feeds me” Rose. Lovely on attack; shameful on defence. Count your money, Earl, while the Stormers count their lucky stars.

i think saders just wanted extra pocket money…. now the stormers thing they the best. Sharks should bring the chockers back to earth.

i watched the Cats game and to entertain myself I imagined that Andy Turner had sold movie rights to Hollywood and Steven Spielberg was making an epic called “Ludeke’s List” it is a tragic tale of young lives ruined and the hopes of a whole community dashed and culminates in a popular uprising and civic unrest. Marvin the Martian is playing Earl Rose and Stiffler is playing Grant Esterhuyzen. Britney Spears will star as Wickus v Heerden.

Moergat,
BJ Botha end Burger have a much bigger yellow card liability factor than Botha. Botha is the dominant enforcer lock in world rugby at the moment. no SA team without him. end of story.
