The worst two is Spies and Stegman - followed closely by Matfield.  The latter made a determined effort to lose the game for the Bulls - giving away a convertable penalty.


I was also unhappy with JJ Engelbrecht - who was constantly make handling errors and to a lesser extent of Serfontein as well.  Serfontein is clueless when to pass balls and on a number of occasions killed moves by hanging onto balls with overlaps on his outside.


A game of a massive number of errors - the worst made by the players mentioned.   Theeir forwards was the main problkem - Spies and Stegman in particular - keeoping balls in the scrums is ruibbish when the movement stalls - giving way at least one penalty as a result.   Stegman is a penalty machine bringing zero to the game.  The way Coleman went through between Stegman and Jane Spies shows how poor the defense of those two d ummies are.

Clevermike,
The start of the season is usually a comedy of errors for the Bulls. It is as if they have all be introduced a few minutes before kick off. 

The Bulls have one formula. 
Start the season playing terribly. Then go on the overseas tour and somehow play even worse. Then come back with a long run of home games, and then only start to play rugby.Once they get momentum at Loftus they might get enough points to play offs.
This season they have the best draw a South African team has ever had. They only tour at the very end of the tour- when most teams are playing derbies for Bok selection.
Not sure if they are going to build momentum this season
So far Spies has been hopeless, as has Stegman. The Bulls need a new fetcher. Matfield seems to be the only one with a brain to organise the rucks standing over the ball until players get into place.

T\You mix up players - the one you think "with a brain to organise the rucks standing over the ball" is Labuschagne - not the useless Matfield whom a scrummie can take off the ball in such situations.
