Haha Ruru

on the ball, lying on the man...

@taniwharugby Have the Bulls stayed on their feet at a single ruck?

Great try, but was there a forward pass in there?

Edit: after watching the replay, no, it was a flat pass.

In Africa yes, NZ no.
Something to do with the axis the world is on.

Hands in the ruck was what the ref missed.

@Stargazer Thought it left the hands backwards myself before floating forward. Game on.

@African-Monkey Yes, saw that in the replay.

@hydro11 Clearly off his feet.

Wonderful try and conversion.

a draw back of the 1-3-3-1 system...winger on forward

We're starting to get beaten to the punch at breakdown. Our forwards tiring?

Blues are getting fucking destroyed at the breakdown.

Brilliant high kick from the Bulls halfback..creates pressure

Nowhere near straight. Everything going against the Blues but lots of dumb rugby.

looked like a sneaky punch there by the 13 going into that ruck

Fuck me Gibson

What a donkey

And that's why Gibson will never be an AB.

Clarke is quietly having a stormer (not jinxing him hopefully).

@KiwiMurph He's improved out of sight especially defensively since last years Mitre 10 Cup.

Wonderful kick Plummer

Who left the field, when Black came on?

Nonu

@Stargazer said in Blues v Bulls:

Nonu. Plummer to 12.

@Stargazer Nonu, Plummer's gone to 12.

Would have taken 3 again. We better score.

@African-Monkey And there we have it haha.

Great try from Akira!

Akira!!! Fuck yeah.

Still not an All Black in my eyes. Made far too many dumb decisions tonight.

@Canes4life Really? Thought he'd been solid myself (not having a go at you btw).

Not bad for his what 32nd straight start?

@African-Monkey although you want him to dominate rather than be 'solid' but then he is probably suffering fatigue too.

@African-Monkey fair call, just think he needs to make better decisions under pressure. He has all the potential in the world and I think he will get there, just needs to keep improving those so called micro skills.

@KiwiMurph yeah that probably doesn't help his case. Poor from Blues management for not looking after their player more.

Do the Blues need to win with a bonus point to keep their play-off hopes alive, or is a win enough?

@Stargazer said in Blues v Bulls:

Win is enough to keep them in the hunt.

Akira I think will be better as he gets older peaking around 28 then he will be outstanding

@KiwiMurph Yup and played well over 1000 minutes this year.

@taniwharugby Yes he hasn't completely dominated, but he's put in a very solid shift and has put his hand up on defence. His work rate which we all know gets questioned a lot has been very good tonight.

Yeah if the Blues win all their games without bonus points, they will make the playoffs. Really need a penalty to finish the Bulls off.

The Bulls backline was five metres offside at that scrum. How did Fraser not notice?
