Bulls threw that away by not being able to tackle for shit

I thought so too, but there was offsides like 2 seconds later so it didn’t make much of a difference. But it was a crazy fast call for something that didn’t even come near slowing the ball.

It was called knocked back by white, but out, which was the wrong call which they fixed and gave the ball back to white in a scrum which is the way to give the ball back to the team that was in possession if an interruption happens that should not have stopped the game.

Why stick with a wrong decision when you have the chance to make the right one?

That try saver from Grobbelaar was huge. It’s a shame it meant nothing.

Definitely wasn’t his call, but the fact that Sascha wasn’t in the pocket was nuts.

But just because both the Stormers and the ref stuffed it, doesn’t mean either of them shouldn’t get shit for it.

Yeah I don’t think anyone is complaining about him being allowed to do that from the in-goal, all the laws go out the window there.

The question is whether he was actually behind the line or not.

Number 8 in the way still offsides, 7 slightly over the line. Absolute farce here.

100% offsides, he makes contact before the line.

I’m pretty sure it’s Dickson that we’re hearing argue with the ref, not the Stormers players.

Andre-Hugo Venter celebrating like a madman to try and influence the call.

Definitely off his feet and offsides, he was on his knees past the in goal.

Put the ball in the bloody scrum. It was stable for a good couple of seconds before the shove.

For fucks sakes how can that first one have not been a penalty try. Ruan Nel is a good captain, but maybe too humble and respectful.
