The Bulls play their penultimate tour game in Sydney against the Waratahs.
The Bulls have had a less than satisfactory tour, an initial win saw some hope of them overcoming the travel bogey. Two unflattering losses thereafter has however painted a different picture.
The Waratahs will be hoping for a win to stay in touch for a home semi-final. The Bulls will hope to get a win to get back into the top four.
The Waratahs have not beaten the Bulls since 2005, will this be the year?

@JarsonX (Comment 4) : Why is at 3 anyway? There are no other SA games after. Make no sense.
@klempie (Comment 7) : dont know, maybe theres something else happenning later???
@klempie (Comment 7) :
So that we can all get pissed off at the stupid shadow across the field, 😉 like we used to in the old days. And we all know that “old days” in the rest of SA are “present days” in Bloem. 🙄
@KSA Shark © (Comment 9) : 🙄
Waratahs PK
HALF TIME
Waratahs 3 – 7 Bulls
any updates on the score, time etc 😆 so many comments, so little time to read
@JarsonX (Comment 12) : nevamind 😛
Come on Tahs! 👿
@JarsonX (Comment 12) :
It sucks when you don’t have a decent commentator. 😉
No worries I will remedy that problem for the Sharks game
Is it still 3-7?
13-3
@klempie (Comment 16) :
JUSt gone to
Waratahs 3 – 13 Bulls
55min
Tahs need to catcha a wake up. 54 mins.
at 46min Steyn slotted a DG
at 55min Steyn slotted a PK
I would prefer a Bulls win without a BP even though I picked the tahs on SB.
A non BP win will put them on 27 points.
If we get a BP win today that will leave us EIGHT points clear at the top of the table.
PK Tahs
Waratahs 6 – 13 Bulls
58min
Man I am glad Steyn isn’t in my FL team. Missed 1 PK at goal, missed two DG attempts.
try and convertion by the tahs and then DRAW, please 👿
@JarsonX (Comment 24) :
Same thought going through my mind. 🙂
i am looking how it will affect the log as we speak. 😆
@KSA Shark © (Comment 25) : Me too.
Bulls Try!
Now the Tahs won’t get a loss BP. 😎
Tahs would go 2nd, Bulls 4th.
@KSA Shark © (Comment 27) : F*ck.
Try Converted.
Waratahs 6 – 20 Bulls
70min
EIGHT Waratah picks on LMS. 😯 😳
damn. I shouldve kept my mouth shut 👿 😈 😛
My Sb has gone from kak to “spuit poep” if this game ends like this. 😳
74min
Bulls seem to want the BP.
Nel makes an electrifying line break at pace and kicks ahead, Ndungane is there to dot it down after a race with Norton-Knight but the TMO adjudges he knocked it on.
@KSA Shark © (Comment 34) :
Nel? Electrifying?
Why was it electrifying?
Coz we are all shocked that he managed a line break?
@KSA Shark © (Comment 33) : mine has been like that since round 2, ive got brooklax instead of brains 😛 iv i played lms i wouldve been dead after round 4 🙄
@JarsonX (Comment 36) :

I best be on my best behaviour for the next few days.
MY TEAM on LMS was Kette. 😳
@robdylan (Comment 41) :
They are a bunch of bastards.
In Rnd 7 they lost to screw my LMS over and now in Rnd 9 They win to screw you over. I think they have something against us. 🙄 😉
good luck lol, see u guyz at 3
Well done Bulls.
Those Aussie commentators are so unashamedly biased its actually nauseating – I would rather listen to Naas and Bob any day.
Not John Robbie though, he is very annoying.
@KSA Shark © (Comment 45) : it could be a mutual thing 🙂 worried I will go out next week. My plan requires the Brumbies to beat them
