Bools versus Lions

Should be a good game

The bools lost in the rain away. Are the oaks reading too much into that loss. We shall see.

All Bools so far!  Lions defending well. Li ons front row doing well

Pollard sinks penalty! Deserved reward for early dominan ce. Hard luck wee cc!

Bools butchering their chances

Oupa Schalk Brits can still run a bit, hey?

Malcolm Marx throws it into the lineout like a girl and the ref says he won't have none of that on his pitch, only men allowed.

B ools using their  forwards - impressive

Bools sink penalty 6-0

Bulls grinding themselves to a standstill .

Seems like my feed is a few minutes behind.

Hi Pakie - yes Brits still speedy for sure. Moz wi ll have something to say!

Sweet move from the lineout by the Bulls and the Baconman almost gets there.

And now Thor hammers it over the line. Bulls looking good.

Vermuelen scores.

The Bools pack SO FAR is dominating outside of set pieces. Have the Lions gone too light re their loose trio or will these little guys be better in the last quarter

Bools le ad 11-0

Brits knocks on a try g oes abegging

Oupa Schalk had to adjust the bifocals for a moment to see the ball.

Another penalty to Bools. Outmuscling Lions

14-0 to Bools

Papier will get a call from Matt Dunning later tonight offering drop goal lessons.

B ools are far more alert than usual!

Pakie senseless to go for drop then!

Lions get penalty

Lions are getting overrun a bit at the moment.

Dunning knows all about senseless drop goals, Beeno. They'll get along fine.

Very impressive Bools. Lions needed an Ackermann in the loose trio.

Can the Bools keep it up.

Lions prop fumbles it like they threw him a live baby. End of half.

Pakie the Bools have been very direct reckoning they could outgun the Lions pack with their small loose trio. So far they have been proven right. Probably they will just keep going fi tness allowing

Ja Lions don't look like they have answers just now. Let's see if a bit of Powerade during the break picks them up.

Dyamani has been absent the whole first half. This guy should be on the wing. 10.6 for 100 meters

Penalty to Bools. score  17-0

Horror pass stops the Bulls attack.

Baconman leaves a smear of grease on Combrink's throat. The ref don't like it, he's an eggs man.

Powerful try by Sadie.

Sadie scores after good Lions build up.

Score now 5 -17 to Bools

Lions score as Sadie tells the Baconman get out of my way, I already had breakfast.

B ulls leaking penalties.

Papier cover well. L ike how nippy he is

Elton pops it thro ugh and Papier gathers to score for the Lions under the posts, but the ref says it don't count if you're in a blue jersey.

Bools pack not so energetic this half thus far

Very good smother tackle by Kriel.

Pakie i can see you know exactly what is potting.

Papier cover saves day again
