Cheetahs has been settled there. They are the invitation side in the competition

Slightly ridiculous how he can still blast through to score from close range no matter how many defenders

It's pretty much the team that's been doing better in the Premiership as well. Saw the score and assume they'd sent the seconds.

Picking Francis ahead of Bailey at 10 :crazy:

Yeah, he really shouldn't score there as the guy who tapped it. One of those that you hate to see against you, but a decent effort all the same.

Is steaming in and clearing out with your shoulder kosher?

Raynal with more madness. That was definitely a penalty against Bulls 5, shoulder charge in at the side of the ruck and then ignoring the footage of Woodburn's shoulder connecting with Carr's face moments later.

Frencie is doing EVERYTHING he can not to give cards for high shots today.

Edit. Finally a yellow for Ewers

Be interesting to see what he does with this given that he ruled Warwick as no foul play last week.

Reckon they'll probably mitigate to yellow.

Young Bulls making to many mistakes. At least the scrumming is better. Sebastiaan Lombard the youngest TH product from Boishaai

They won't. :lol: The Saffer teams bring quality. You watch them put 30+ on this Chiefs team in the return match.

Sucks. Really thought Bulls would be contenders.
One more Saffer side to go . Are we at least going to get 75 percent return

Part of the reason both Iturria and Jedrasiak disappeared from the intl radar is they are both sick notes.

Clermont's discipline is abysmal. How has Gibbes still got a job?

Winning the whole thing is probably Scarlets only chance of getting into the Champions next year; like Connacht, it provides that extra motivation to compete hard.

Sarries just poor basic skills, Farrell really has no idea how to run an attacking backline and Van Zyl is just fucking terrible. Ben Earl however showing why he is the best English back rower for at least the last 2 seasons.

Tigers 17-6 up against Clermont, probably should be a few more but held up over the line twice.

Clermont an embarrassment. 7 line breaks to 1 and failed to score including that ridiculous held up. Lost track of their pens conceded.

Penaud needs to get out of there asap.

We've been having highs of 1 or 2 degrees in South East England for most of the week, 20 degrees may be a bit overwhelming for them even if it is a bit on the chilly side for the locals.
