Pedrie lashes Lions

Pedrie lashes Lions

1 Jul 2006

Springbok discard Pedrie Wannenburg inspired the Bulls to a 39-24 victory in their Absa Currie Cup match at Ellis Park on Saturday.

After an unconvincing 18-16 win against the Valke at Loftus last weekend, this was the perfect result for outgoing coach Heyneke Meyer.

The Lions were competitive in the first half, but the Bulls took charge in the second and claimed a bonus point by scoring five tries.

Wannenburg was the best player on the park and showed that his Bok days are far from over.

The Lions got off to a good start when left wing Louis Ludik regathered his own chip ahead to score his side’s first try.

Morne Steyn kicked a penalty to keep the Bulls in the game and when another Bok reject, Tim Dlulane, reached out to score with 10 minutes to go until half-time, the visitors grew in confidence.

Morne Steyn grabbed another try just before the break to put the Bulls 15-11 in front, although Mark Harris responded with a penalty to reduce the gap to just one point.

Left wing Marius Delport struck a crucial blow four minutes after the interval when he beat several Lions defenders to score the Bulls’ third try.

Harris again kept the Lions in touch with a penalty, but when Wannenburg went over for the bonus-point try the result was put beyond doubt.

A try from Jaco Engels made it 39-17 to the Bulls, although Harris went over on the stroke of full-time to add some respectability to the scoreline.

Lions - Tries: Louis Ludik, Mark Harris. Conversion: Mark Harris. Penalties: Harris (4).
Bulls - Tries: Tim Dlulane, Morne Steyn, Marius Delport, Pedrie Wannenburg, Jaco Engels. Conversions: Steyn (3), Jacques-Louis Potgieter. Penalties: Steyn (2).

    The Lions are punching above their weight upfront, but they are holding on well. Soon after the break they will fold as they simply cannot keep this up.

    But the Currie Cup has S14 teams, oxfordshark. The Currie Cupis essentially the build-up to the S14.

    Back to the game.
    Scrum Lions but get pushed back. Bad ball to Vermaak. Bulls take off and Delport under the post after a brilliant run by him!
    From the half way line through the whole Lions team.
    22- 14. For Us.

    Poor defence by the Lions. I spoke too soon about defence being better in this game. Woe is the Currie Cup! I don’t know why I watch this trash.
