Easy try for the Bulls. Landers defence is average.

@Bones Is he on the field?

SA teams have improved a lot this year

Ioane looking a little like Mo'unga there

He's the one carving up wearing 13. Performs well alongside Walden or Santana.

Edit, oh you're talking about Hammett. Sorry I forgot he's a crusader.

High tackle on McKay not spotted.

Was that a high tackle on Mckay?

Beautiful pass by Ioane there.

Freakin Britz was well off side there plus a high shot on Mckay missed

Nisbo confuses Lentjes with a prop.

Jesus fuck some of this passing is atrocious.

Bulls will be happy that Angus couldn't give a shit about grabbing guys around the face.

That last passage sort of sums up the Landers season. Some very enterprising play and good runs but a little disjointed in their attack.

Panic passing, just trying to get the ball away too hurried and without getting eyes up. Ghastly.

FFS Nisbett pisses me off. Says every Afrikaans name perfectly but wont pronounce Poly names properly. He's from a country with Poly words being spoken correctly all the time yet he can't even say Hemopo correctly but manages to sound like a Free State Dutchman when saying the Bulls players names.

/End rant.

I remember him mistaking Rodders for Connie years ago, or vice versa. How?

Gee I reckon I would take Hemapo before I took Squire to the RWC ..I know it’s only Squires first game back but Hemapo is such a tough bugger..even when he gets double teamed on the tackle he’s still driving his legs to go forward ..

That 1st half was sloppy af

Lander having no regard for ball security flinging it anywhere & everywhere

Iaone looking good but getting trampled a few times Naholo is a similar case as well falling of a tackle badly & letting ball bounce for Bulls 1st try

Did anyone else pick up that ruck/breakdown on the right wing with about 3-4 minutes to go? It was a Landers attacking ruck and Naholo was over it providing protection. One or two Bulls players were trying to drive into Naholo to move him, but couldn’t. They had a couple of go’s at it.

You could hear through the ref mic some laughing and a few words after it. Especially after one of the Bulls players tried to go in high on Naholo.

@Steven-Harris yeah they were hitting him hard but he is so strong and determined

Tom Franklin thinks he's a midfielder.
