William blows an opportunity Arendse would have cashed in. The Bools scrum dominates…GP -breaks off the wheeling scrum.
Leinster looking very professional

Brilliant Bools try….wiped out by van Staden tackling a player without the ball.
Stupid play by the Bools….from the short
drop out going wrong to Peterson coming off his man and then giving away a yellow. Try Leinster.
Fabulous Bools try a man down by Goosen
….set up by a great Willie kick to the corner.
Just tuned in to see about 10 kicks downfield in a row from one side to the other
And another mini sequence of the same started until Willie thankfully kicks it dead.
Pass to Bulls 8 looked mighty forward.
Bulls scrum bullies the Irish.
Bools front row blow away Leinster…Goosen nails it.
Hi Pakie….tight game so far, bit of an Ireland trial run.
Hello Moz. Looks quite evenly matched yes.
Beautiful attack down the left from the Bulls and Petersen finishes.
Sublime touch on the little stab through by Vorster - so easy to kick those too hard when going full tilt but he nailed it
Pretty dubious penalty in the corner…another great piece of rugby by Hanekom.
Hanekom this time with a break around the scrum and a lovely touch on the stab down the touchline. Penalty to the Irish though as Papier plays the man and not the ball.
Leinster almost away now with some sweet running lines but the Bulls cover shuts them down 5m out.
Tap and go and Leinster powers over. They played well for that. 17-14
And another dubious penalty sets up the Leinster try. Who is this ref?
Some wild play there!
HI ouens...nice game.
Game has caught fire now. Bulls a lucky bounce away from scoring.
Hello Draad.
It’s now 8 penalties to 2 against the Bools…..not my usual
stick, but this ref sees only one side of the field.
Super breakout by Lowe and Leinster milks another kickable penalty. 17-17
Goosen kicking like Pollard!
At last one for the Bulls there, Moz.
The guy who tackled Kriel on the kickoff, never released. It should have been a Bools penalty. Fair enough on the Akker penalty.
Ja, some "interesting" calls.
Hahaha a complete cock up.._and the Welsh TMO stays silent
What a try!!!
Petersen gathers an Irish fumble to score again.
Impressive Bulls defense.
Skelm ref.
Marginal hit on Goosen could have been called.
Tmo asleep too.
Goosen taken in the air, technically.
Marginal se gat...he was in the air too...and it was late.
Finally something so obvious this cheat had to call it.
Great scrambling defense Bulls.
Goosen probably milking that a bit.
Leinster starting to lose their cool.
Bools! Vannand
is ek ‘n Bull. Lovely scenes at Loftus!
Lol...when last did Leinster win any trophies? Great side, but things have gone spectacularly against them the last 2 seasons.
Great win Bulls. Impressive stuff.
Hanekom a deserved MOM…..83 metres, 6 tackles beaten…..15 tackles/o missed. Several turnovers……brilliant
Bulls deserved winners. With the resources Leinster have serious questions have to be asked when its now 3 seasons without a trophy.
I also don't normally bash the ref either but he was poor today for both sides but Bull's had they lost could of felt aggrieved.
Anyway entertaining game.
Hope the other semi is as good.
I'll be cheering on Munster, I know I should root for Glasgow, but I just like Munster...their brand of rugby is so much more attractive than Leinster's.

So weird to here people say they like Munster's brand of Rugby. That's only appeared in the last two seasons under Roundtree, Munster where pretty much always the definition of stick it up your jersey rugby team.
I've only seen them play the last2 seasons.
Jocks playing some good rugga.
Reff a bit whistle happy.
Bulls are really turning up the heat and I hope that they will take that into the Finals….Cameron Hanekom is making a very strong claim as the Form 8 and the most likely to take over the 8 th man spot for the Boks…..there is also no doubt that Wilco and Steenekamp is the strongest props in SA Rugby and surely need to start for the Boks as soon as possible…..this also counts for Johan Grobbelaar….Johan Goosen is also right up there as the Form Flyhalf in SA….other players that impressed me today is Seargal Petersen and Ruan Nortje that lead by example. Well done Bulls and thanks for shutting up the nay sayer’s.
Well played all around by the bulls, go win that cup now
Really good chance now...well done Glasgow...the best team for the bulk of the season...but die Bulle moet die gunstelinge wees.
