Joy for Jaguares in slaughter of Bulls
The Jaguares were as magnificent as the Bulls were shameful in the most one-sided Super Rugby match in Buenos Aires.
The home team won 54-24.
The Jaguares, at home for the first time since their four successive wins in Australia and New Zealand, led 13-10 after 38 minutes, but in a 20 minute red hot period went on the rampage in scoring 39 unanswered points.
This is the Jaguares fifth successive victory and the bonus point win, their first try-scoring league five pointer, takes them to second in the South African Conference and into the Top eight for the first time on the overall table.
The Jaguares scored seven tries to three.
