 Not sure what happened with turning down kicks than Morne Steyn would have slotted in his sleep.

 

Donkey Potgieter will not be captaining the Bulls going forward. 

 

Maybe the Bulls just catipulted today as soon as they heard the final was not going to be in Pretoria even if they won.

 

 How did this team even manage to finish the log in second place, and host a semi final?

 Sharkbok the bulle threw this one. They had a good second half and had the match under control and then didnt take the 3 penalties.Mind boggling.

 nuked brain cell  of course it does. It shows our third best side should be in the finals but for some daft calls by craig and dewaldt potty.

If you have any doubts just remember what a second string Stormers outfit did to the Bulle.  Sharks also would have been right up there barring injuries.

4 of the top 8 sides were SA sides. Stormers and Sharks would no doubt have been higher up the log but for  huge injury tolls.  

Hope this answer your question.

 Not really Hasbeeno. Don't see any SA sides in the Final which tends to blow your theory. Next you'll be saying the Boks were the best side at the last World Cup!

 Donkey Potgieter has now stated that he would make the exact same decision again if he was in the same situation.

 

Potgieter remained defiant after the match and insisted that he would have made the same calls if he had to play the match over again.

The Bulls captain said the only regret he had was that he did not stick to his guns and believed his decisions contained the Brumbies in their half.

"We actually managed to keep them down there for 10 minutes and the only thing I maybe regret is actually going for poles with five minutes to go, if you make the decision to keep them in their half I should have backed the call," Potgieter said.

"That was also part of the reason why I went that route.
