Horrible tour for the Bulls.
And Pollards form is non-existent.

I am getting the feeling that the Bulls way of play is killing all the flair he has. Similar thing happened to Morné Steyn. Also attacking player but got coached out of it.

I honestly feel that Pollard needs to move away from Bulls to develop himself further.

I think the Bulls should stop playing Liefling rugby. They do have the forwards and backline, but they seriously lack the running game. They opted to kick throughout the first half and only started playing the ball 20 minutes into the second half. They needed to win the Brumbies in the first half on away soil, but no.

Join the Cheetahs then?
Only franchise in SA that plays running and attacking Rugby. The Lions are getting there now. But still a far way off.

That is the sad part. Not really a team in SA. I would it if he joins the Lions.

Any team that will allow him to play as HE sees it. Not this is the plan, stick to it.

Only when it suits them though.

And see where that got them.

I'm really hoping next year will be better for us. Suffering of being a Cheetah supporter is getting a bit much now.

I had extremely high hopes when they won the Sharks in the opening game.

That didn't last long.

That being said, there is no other team in SA that allows their fly halves as much freedom as the Cheetahs. The Lions are making massive inroads. But they not a running team yet.

It seems to be getting worse.

I feel sorry for any comrades runners who decided to go and watch this.

Nobody deserves to suffer twice in one weekend.

Yeah. Jannie will probably get a few weeks off for that and hopefully we will be done with him. Being Aussie Weekes will probably get 2 weeks.
