This one in the Ring. The Force look like THE Aussie team on form at the moment , this one will be their real test. The Brutes lifting their horns after last week hard game against the Chiefs and wont be easily stop in their tracks in the Ring. Pretty sure thats where they want to finish their season, in their Ring.

Read through the articles and surely this one will be won up front. The Force have one of the best backlines and the Brutes will try and give them no pill.

Dont expect any changes from the Brutes side and they will try and copy their play from one week to the other. If there is one place I'll have to give them accolades, its their defense and Meisiekind. Surely he is on fire at the moment.

Ring supporters will be in for a double treat. Vodacom Cup semi time

Saturday?s match against the Force kicks off at 17:05 whilst the Vodacom Blue Bulls are going to play against the Leopards in the Vodacom Cup semi-final at 14:00.


Hope they pack the Ring. Watching those Ring supporters and Cheerleaders, my highlight. Best in SH rugby with Newlands next.

Bulls at home against the Aussie team with probably the weakest tight 5 in Aus, if not close to the comp? (Exluding the injury ridden Brumbies...) Bulls are such a different proposition home as compared to in Aus or NZ. Has to be the Bulls.

Brutes? More like the Blue Bores. The Waratahs with a kicking game......

I can't see the Force getting up, but they should give them a run for their Rand.

Force are right in this game. The Chiefs bruised a few egos last week and if Gitts brings it, and the Force pack can give the Bulls some then I reckon, if officiated correctly, we'll see at least two yellows to the Bulls.

The Bulls played their best last week and the Chiefs almost rolled them, not to mention the 26 points.
All the Bulls showed was some OK defence and a boot downfield.

The Force need to hit them hard in the first 20. They have the attack to do it. Then just play the boot downfield ala Bulls and wait for the frustration to be penalised with yellow. Not sure if the Force pack can stick it to them like the chiefs tho.

Hey Rat, don't you reckon Giteau is sh|T?
He has a good game at Super 14 level.

Gitts was paid as if he was the next Bernie. He fell way short and we have been losing for some time. I just keep hoping he strings together 4 good 80 minute games this year for the Wallabies. With Bernie you just knew he would not hope.

Unfortunately, can't see much better in Australian rugby ATM.

As for Blue. After the Bulls antics last week I have nicknamed them "Pillows".

You will find an Australian referee this week for the Bulls. He would have watched the Bulls cheating last week and will surely penalise harshly for constant indiscretions.

Sorry for being harsh, however I did find the consistant, blatent cheating last weekend quite soft.

Not that I didn't enjoy the game, I do however reckon that if you get on top of the Bulls they will self destruct.

Ah

So we have determined that the Bulls are gutless cheats who don's sleep on pillows and that Rat thinks Carter is Jesus.

We are all entitled to our opinion but surely there is a limit to what can be consider sane.

PS. I come from Pretoria and I don't sleep on a pillow. Hey, you're onto something.

As for cheating. Get real. Show me one team who is not pushing the offside line and thje breakdown. The Bulls do it more than anyone else.

Thanks to my Brute broer, Blue for clearing it all up, sure make sense to me now. :lmao: (I'll be a dead man without him)

Brutes by 12 , my tip. Force have a very good backline but will have to cope with backfoot ball, even if they make the Pope the ref. 8)

I mean, even when they pulled back in the scrum !!! It was so obvious. A blatent hard n fast "set" line out throw straight to the man. The constant ruck infringrments. Attacking a man on the ground then backing up and crying like a girl when a Chief's player approached to break it up. The line out penalty. Your boofhead acted like he had just been belted by Messum when all Messum did was contest.

The Bulls cheated in every aspect last week. Surely with a neutral ref ????

It is still cheating regardless. I honestly think the Bulls are lacking something and could be found out in the semis. As for the Force. I can see them staying in this game if the Bulls keep being penalised. I could find a Bulls player at fault in almost every ruck last week and I am sure a ref could as well.

Luaki deserved the yellow no doubt. He is however a funny bloke. I just watch him and wait for him to do something odd.
