I hope to see some Cheetahs magic, but I'm realistic so I just keep my fingers crossed to have a good game.

This is going to be a cracker of a game as the race for the no 1 spot in the SA conference is heating up.
I am giving the Bulls a slight advantage due to Arno Botha and Jan Serfontein is the starting line-up, even away from home
Morney Steyn should still be as good as he is this season, game is at altitude so expect massive kicks

Looking forward to some one one ones, sure Heyneke Meyer will watch this with keen interest

Lappies vs Botha
Van Zyl/Pretorius vs Hougaard/Vermaak
Ebersohn vs Serfontein
Le Roux vs. Basson

Sure there are plenty more

Jis this is going to be a nail biter, hope my Bully boys can pull it off.

Don't Forget about Chilliboy vs Strauss!!

And I expect Heinrich Brussouw will put in a massive display after the many reports this week that the door is still open for him to join the Boks, and that he and HM had some talks this week.

I am very very nervous about this match.
But I expect the Bulls to show their worth. and with Jan starting, I expect him to show us a bit of magic and why HM likes him so much...

If it's going to be a scrappy match, then the Cheetahs will fall short as Elgar Watts isn't as proficient at goal kicking as Morne...

This one is going to be fun! I expect lots of running and quick ball on a hard dry surface.

 

[Amobokoboko]

Good game so far. Goo Cheetahs!!!!

 

[TRF_heineken]

Half time 17-10 to the Bulls...

Am I the only seeing that Marius Jonker is coaching Jason Jaftha throughout the game??

 

[TRF_heineken]

Yay! Got the double over the Cheetahs. Pity we didn't get the bonus point, but we did get the win. Jan Serfontein well deserved MOTM

Bulls played an exciting first half but resorted to a more defensive second. I would have loved it if they kept up the pace looking for the BP but with the Cheetahs being a second-half-team I am happy with the result.

Jafta was a bit poor, but you are right, Marius kept him straight.

Serfontein had a banger and he deserves to be ahead of JdV in the boks IMO. I am also glad to see Kirchner back, and Mapoe off frankly. Visser was also better at wing.
