Well done to the Bulls. Good win.

Didn't even help us to switch off the lights. :whistle::D

Cheetahs 34 - 51 Bulls
 
Was a brilliant game though.

Only a taste of things to come :). Tomorrow the Lions WTFPWN the Stormers :p

Indeed was a good game. Very worrying for me is the tackling from the Cheetahs.
We have 2 of the most exciting wings in SA and would do well to play it wide a bit more.

Juan Smith again losing his cool when penalties go against his team. Also made the mistake of going for touch when there was enough time to kick for 3 points and build up again. Adriaan Strauss is a much better captain IMO.

Well done Bulls. You stayed calm and exploited our poor defense.
 
Bulls = Stormers > Sharks > Cheetahs > Lions

My predictions for this year ;)
 
Blues vs Hurricanes - Hurricanes won 34 - 20.
Force vs Brumbies - Brumbies won 24 - 14.
Cheetahs vs Bulls - Bulls won 51 - 34.

Not looking good for the home sides so far. :D

Awesome atmosphere on Vodacom Park when the lights went off... Everyone shouting Eskom... Eskom... Eskom...
 
2nd post in thread updated.

It has results of all games, man of the match and the log.

Winners are in Blue and losers in Red. Will make it a bit easier to scan results.

If possible I will update results immediately after each game. Otherwise ASAP. I will also post results as a new post. If I am not available, feel free to post results.
Log will only be updated after all games have been finished for the day.

Please shout if you have any suggestions.

Was it a power failure though, or was it a problem with the lights. I ask because the lights didn't seem to come 'all the way' back on. On TV it looked like I was watching a local club game in terms of lighting.

Eskom...
The power plant at Willows exploded, the power diverted to another plant which caused a power surge. And because the stadium power is all computerised, the surge forced a shut down and restart, which is why the power was off.
Fault was with Mangaung Municipality.
 
Don't know, maybe just lights, because the scoreboards and indoor lights still worked, but the video screens also went down.

But the spotlights on the staditon never got on again.

Well if the Lions "contracts" are anything to by, I think it will be a Stormers victory :D
I mean,to go to court and ask the judge (Davis) to grant them an opportunity to change the contracts? LMAO!!:

Lions advocate Theo Beckerling told Davis the union wanted a chance to rectify the contract.

"You want the court to come to your assistance because someone couldn't set a proper contract?" Davis asked Beckerling.
"The document is vague and better contracts have been produced in South African legal history," he said.
