Ek grap net Ligblou, daar is niemand wat ek ken wat daardie song beter verstaan as jy nie..

Posted by Jimmy on 04 November 2012 01:32

So ver as wat ek kan onthou is Tears in Heaven eintlik 'n sad song.

Posted by Jimmy on 03 November 2012 09:40

lol!

@ Muzi what is making me more mad is that I cant log on to those flippin sites from work to tell them what I think of them and to protect and defend the Bulls so I just sit here - especially on Sport 24 and do the thumbs down all the time but it is not enough. I hope all those idiots have to eat their words next year. I cant stand the comments about MS and ZK all the time I just wanna go crazy. GO BULLS !!

Posted by BullsRbest on 02 November 2012 15:32

@BullsRbest
Agree sjoe just about every blog is making fun of the Bulls it makes me mad!!

Posted by Muzi on 02 November 2012 14:19

@Paarlbul
Agree haha it was a pleasure watching Juan Schoeman,Bongi Mbonambi and Hencus van Wyk dominate fat kebble and the other mountain goats in the scrums.
Neethling Fouche will rattle a few feathers that kid is a beast with the right coaching he could be a n asset for the Bulls.
Wow but how strong is Ulrich Beyers sjoe he was bullying forwards last weekend the lad is a great talent no doubt a rising star.
Concerning Werner he has always struggled with binding that is why i went for Marcell vd Merwer IMHO he could be a force in the scrums plus he's a massive strong lad.
All the tight five needs to do is provide Hougaard front foot ball then our 8,9, and 10 axis will rise to the challenge again.

Welkom by die masjien.

welkom by die bulle mapoe en visagie hoop jul geniet jul tyd by ons.

Posted by kzn bul on 02 November 2012 13:35

Muzi @ 6 - a few very young players in your squad - Dries Swanepoel is another name you can add.
Neethling Fouche is U/19 nr 3 - I have not seen him?? - Hencus van Wyk also did well
I still have the feeling that Ulrich Beyers can be a great nr 10 - froget MS and LF
F Hougaard is NOT a kicking scrumhalve and will not stay with Bulls if they continue with kicking game - he was already demoted to bench in Currie cup.
If we want to dominate scrum time then Werner cannot be our 1st choice n3. One of the main reason why the Bulle u/21 won the final = Juan Schoeman absolutely demolished the WP tighthead.

Bendiebul @ 19 ek stem met jou - ek het my bedenking of FL KAN change, of hy die Bulle se strukture kan bymekaar hou? Muzi het genoem van al die jong talent, maar wat gebeur? Die ouens met visie wat by Bulle was is nou by Springbokke - HM, Ian Schwartz.

BullsRbest @ 20 - WO always the better nr13 than 12. I am afraid I disagree with you on MS - like I said previously on this blog - if you take goal kicking and Kicking off out then MS is very average. Tactikle kicks, defense, providing space, making decisions - nee wat! Fourie du Preez het hom laat goed lyk!

Maar ek gaat altyd hoop die Bulle word weer soos van ouds - met FL daar - Eish!

Posted by Paarlbul on 02 November 2012 13:22

@ 19 I still have the strongest faith and respect for MS, ZK and WO. To me (yes because I am Blou Bul biased) they are the best around. Just because Morne has had a bit of a slump doesnt mean that he is unable to perform like he has - he is pure class and this will all come back. Look at what happened to Habana and Morne is going to do the same. He is still young and new to both the Boks and the Bulls and he still has a long way to go. Zane is playing like he always does which for me is brilliant rugby and Wynand is one of our best centres. I wouldnt change them for the world and we still need some experience and back up from senior players to help the juniors to settle in.

Posted by BullsRbest on 02 November 2012 12:55

Die vraag wat ons moet vra is: wat gaan volgende jaar nou skielik anders wees by die Bulle as ons dieselfde afrigters het, met dieselfde spelers en dieselfde (uitgediende) spelpatroon ?

As 'n mens nie meer die personeel het om 'n sekere spelpatroon af te dwing nie, moet jy kan verander, maar as jy bly dieselfde spelers kies met dieselfde spelpatroon gaan jy ..... dieselfde resultate kry.

So, met die spankeuse vir die eerste super 15 wedstryd gaan ons weet dit gaan wees:
- MS, WO en Zane = dieselfde spelpatroon met dieselfde resultate
- Pollard, Jan S. en Visser/Beyers = nuwe spelpatroon met hopelik nuwe resultate
Die WP het laasjaar hul jong geslag in die diepkant ingegooi, en nou begin hul die resultate sien. Ek was van mening ons moes dit hierdie jaar met die CB reeds gedoen het, maar hoe langer ons uitstel, hoe moeiliker word dit vir die jonger geslag om deur te kom en die nodige goeie resultate vir ons te gee.

Moenie my verkeerd verstaan nie, MS en Zane en WO was groot staatmakers gewees, maar van die verlede, kan hul nou skielik aanvallende spelers word wat nuut aanpas by 'n nuwe bal-in-hand spelpatroon, wat die opposisie aan die raai hou, in plaas van 'kick and charge'.

Sterkte aan die bestuur, afrigtingspan en die spelers vir die volgende 3 maande, dit is in hierdie tyd van belangrike besluite neem en oefen wat jou seisoen volgende jaar gemaak of gebreek word.

@ 17 - I know but it really hurt watching all those other monkeys walking away with the awards. I suppose I am getting greedy and spoilt now. Anyway time to look forward to the upcoming year and hope we can show those coastal teams once again who is actually the best rugby team in SA. GO BULLS !!!

Posted by BullsRbest on 02 November 2012 12:15

We knew it was going to be a difficult year with the amount of change -the bulls had

Posted by louisk on 02 November 2012 11:14

Wow was it sore watching those awards last night. Congratulations to Jan Serfontein but to see what we have become was not lekker. From getting all the awards just about every year to not even being nominated for one was such a lousy thing to see. We have to lift outselves up from the loss of all those fantastic players last year - we have the talent to continue our winning streak and good name but watching the Currie Cup final - DO WE HAVE THE PASSION ??

Posted by BullsRbest on 02 November 2012 11:04

@FRANNABUL
It all starts in the tight five Bulls have struggled in the scrums....our forwards were at times bullied.The 8,9, and 10 axis needs go forward ball.I was watching Spies during the 2009 and 2010 super rugby season he was playing well because the tight five was dominating the collision points.

Posted by Muzi on 02 November 2012 10:48

@FRANNABUL

Bulls and the Lions agreed to a loan deal for Mapoe and Callie that states both of them have to be in the match 22.

Posted by Muzi on 02 November 2012 10:45

Morne se groot probleem is die forwards wat swaar gekry het. Dit het sy spel peil en Hougie s'n beinvloed!

Posted by FRANNABUL on 02 November 2012 10:22

@6, Muzi, do you really think Wille Wepener is the 3 rd best hooker?

Posted by FRANNABUL on 02 November 2012 10:21

Hopelik bring die nuwe reel dat jy binne 5 sec die bal by die losskrum moet clear 'n einde aan die aanhoudende geskop. Ons het met die reel nie 'n ander keuse as om die patroon te verander nie. Ek hoop net Jano and FH kan die slegte gewoonte vinnig afleer, anders gaan ons geweldig baie skrums afstaan. Die nuwe reel van 'n volle voorry op die bank gee jou ook nou die opsie van 3 agterspelers op die bank wat dit makliker maak om meer ouens gereeld te laat speel. Ek hoop regtig ons kan die ding omkeer. Nou lag die WP vir ons met twee bekers die jaar. Ons grootste probleem bly losskakel. Hopelik kan MS 'n paar lesse by Habana gaan leer hoe om vrot spelpeil om te keer.

Posted by Blou Vlam on 02 November 2012 09:06

@ 6: Hoe oortuig mens iemand om 'n game plan te verander wanneer daardie persoon dink die probleem le by die uitvoering daarvan en nie by die plan self nie? Dis die indruk wat ek gekry het van BB23 tydens die laaste gesprek, dit gaan nie maklik wees nie.

Posted by Jimmy on 02 November 2012 09:04

@6 sorry i miss red his name

@6 you forgot about marcel vd merwe that we bought from the cheetas

Posted by louisk on 02 November 2012 08:59

Si see the Craven week player of the year Sergeal Petersein?!?!?!?
Didn't these people watch a young kloffies boytjie by the name of Rohan Janse van Rensburg he was in his own league,untouchable and outstanding for the whole week in PE.

Posted by Muzi on 02 November 2012 08:51

@4 ek hoop ook so, only time will tell

Posted by Nitronic on 02 November 2012 08:33

@3: Ons weet almal dat as die Bulle daarby bly, maar ek is bereid om hulle die voordeel te gee dat hulle wel kan verander....

Kyk na wat Frans spesifiek noem van Mapoe: " His pace, attacking mindset and versatility will be a tremendous asset to the Bulls...". Behalwe as hy regtig so agterlik en dof is as wat sommige hier op die blog wil afmaak, beteken dit vir my dat Frans regtig die bal-in-hand benadering in sy arsenaal oorweeg...

Ek hoop regtig ek is reg...

Posted by GeenBloutjieNetBlou on 02 November 2012 07:27

Die Bulls se game plan (Skop en storm) gaan nie Lionel se sterk punte na vore bring nie maar dit eeder op mors.

Posted by Bull perd on 02 November 2012 07:21

2 goei aanwins leen spelers hoop net hy kry die bal genoeg

Posted by louisk on 02 November 2012 07:11

Soos die Bulle in 2013!!!!!!
