Na verlede week se verloor is ek is so bietjie bekommerd
oor ons Bulle. Ek wil net sê dat ek nie probeer negatief
wees nie, maar net realisties. Ons het vanjaar teen twee
baie gemiddelde NZ spanne, die Blues en die
Highlanders, verloor en nou het ons Vrydag die Chiefs weg
in Hamilton. Dan het ons nog die Stormers en die
Cheetahs tuis en Sharks weg in die Sharks tenk.
As ons twee of meer van hierdie wedstryde gaan verloor,
dan gaan ons moeilik die semi-finale haal.
Elke wedstryd is nou vir ons soos n finaal en ons sal ons
spelpeil definitief moet lig as ons in die top 2 van die Suid
Afrikaanse konferensie wil eindig!
Gelukkig WEET EK ONS KAN DIT DOEN en ons gaan nou
nog harder as ooit skree vir ons span, al is hulle in pienk.
Ten laaste wil ek net sê dat ek glad nie kan verstaan hoe
ons kon dink die skop taktiek sou ons die wedstryd kon
laat wen nie.

Predictions on the Tahs match:
- This game is very important for both sides but for
contrasting reasons! The Bulls would like to
remain conference leaders, whereas the
Waratahs know that if they lose one more game
this season, they will not be able to qualify for the
last six! The Bulls must have the edge given their
superior records against the men from Sydney.
Waratahs have not beaten the Bulls since 2004,
which includes two Bulls wins in Sydney.
The Bulls moved to the top of a very congested Super Rugby table,
with their depth ensuring the three-time champions could
overcome a number of potentially crippling injuries.
Having still hovered in the wildcard places a fortnight ago, the Bulls
first moved past the Stormers to top the South African conference
and then overtook the Chiefs on the global standings this past
weekend - after the New Zealand leaders lost to the Reds.
The Bulls achieved all this while injuries and compassionate leave
robbed them of players like loose forwards Jacques Potgieter
(dislocated knee cap) and Deon Stegmann (fractured forearm),
props Frik Kirsten (fractured hand) and Dean Greyling (returned
home to be with his wife for the birth of their first child), as well as
centre Wynand Olivier (injured ribs).
However, their conveyor belt of quality replacements have brought
in players like Dewald Potgieter (who himself has just returned
from a hamstring injury), Dawie Steyn, Greyling and veteran Rayno
Gerber (flown over after Kirsten was injured).

Steyn managed five conversions and two
penalties, and did not miss a shot at goal, as
the Bulls won their fourth successive match.
"It was pretty exciting from the stands, high
intensity, good attacking from both sides,
maybe not the best defensively from us but
good to get the win," Bulls captain Pierre
Spies said.
"We needed these points," he added of the
victory that propelled them to the top of the
South African conference on 42 points, one
ahead of the Stormers who have a bye.
