Bools vs Bristol Bears

Jacob’s shows any reception Vouvou can pull off, he can too.

Will altitude and heat save tbe Bulls?

Bulls appear to be waking up.

Bears looking a little tired?

Important steal for the Bears.

That looked like a deliberate tap into touch.

Penalty try Bulls, yellow Bristol. Well weighted grubber by Vorster to set it up.

Great Penalty try and yellow against Bears.

42-28 Bears lead.

Rudolph wins the penalty. Guy is turning into a Anton Leonard like talisman for the Bulls.

Rudolph again

Incredible Bears try

Pollard drops Wiese's pass and Bristol gathers. Heward finally showing some pace to outrun Papier to the ball.

14 point swing as Bulls foul up

28-47 half time. Bulls will need the heat and altitude to scratch this one back, yes.

Igo for a dip in the pool and another 4 tries are scored in the last 15m of the 1st half. WTH?

That's what loafing around during a match thread gets you, Draad.

And the circus is about to resume for the second half.

Go bools, it's not too late!

Stay calm and keep it tight.

Nice try Bools!

Great try Bulls, interplay between Willie and Seb, then the space for Vorster and he puts Kriel away.

35-47

Bears back to 15 men, Bulls did well to take advantage.

Bools scrum...make it work for us boys.

Not...penalty against them.

Another grubber kicked too far….Willie playing well today

Rudolph with a strong tackle disrupting the Bears' momentum.

Nice work Willie, good clearance.

The ref is a confusion!

Bulls starting to pull last week's antics - Pollard with a roly poly pass and then Rudolph with a knock.

The ref is a confusion!

Oui!

Pollard now with a nice break to help the Bulls run it all the way from their tryline into the Bears 22. The Ball Tickler tosses an offload into Bears hands to end it all though, Bulls all the way back in their 22 again.

Heward beating Kriel way too easily.

Genge into the gap, almost goes all the way and probably should have fed his support. Willie gets yellow.

Quick hands with the tappy and Bristol scores.35-54

35-54....damn Boools!!!

To think one unnecessary offload from Wessels when the Bulls had fought their way to the Bristol 22 indirectly led to that try. Sometimes you just need to calm down a bit and build instead of the 50/50 stuff.

And another for Bristol. Ravroomvroom over. The bounce was favourable but great exploitation of Willie's absence.

Great counter ruck Rudolph-h…but another crazy try for the Bears.

Mullet Janse van Rensburg has been pretty anonymous for Bristol.

Well at least these Bulls are better than Jake's lot, eh?

Right?
