I think the Bulls will have to be at there best to pull this one thru….but they will be amped, coming of the loss against Leinster….so I think Bulls will win a close one.

You reckon ? I’m not sure. The travelling might take a toll on the Bulls but thankfully we haven’t had to travel to Pretoria !

Well the saints has got some good props and it will be interesting for me how a youngster like Tarek Haffar fairs against my Favourite prop Wilco Louw…or a Paul hill…Beltus Nonleh the young Cameroonian prop is also good…Then you have the Scotty Elliot Millar Mills at Tight Head, that will be a good match up for Gerhard Steenekamp….so it will be interesting….Burger Odendal plays for the saints to.

Well I’m not sure any of those props will be playing on Saturday. 

I’m sure Odendall will be playing though. He’s done quite well since he’s been here.

I think that is exactly where the Bulls will most probably target them in the scrums….but like I said the saints props is not totally useless…. But Wilco and Gerhard is Absolute beasts comes scrum time : )

LOL Bulls players having to fly out on 8 different planes. Took them 28 hours to get to Dublin for the Leinster gamer and 27 hours flying back, what clown in SA rugby is organizing that shitshow.

They where already up against it. No chance against the Saints.

Odendaal is out injured now. So that means he’s missing out on playing his old team.

So Jake has left 10 Springboks in SA. 

Complacency or devaluing the competition ?

He doesn't think the Bulls can win, probably due to the travel arrangements and wants to focus on the URC which for now  there is a more realistic possibility of winning.

Agreed we are not chuffed!!…I think there is to many bloody competitions…so if the Saints win its a second grade win…will the Saints Coach still put his best team out?? I wonder.

Yeah. As I said, Odendaal is out and he would’ve been a starter but they think Furbank will be back after his calf injury. 

Team should be out soon anyway
