[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1004800, member: 40658"] I think more credit has to go to Griquas in this case. The reason why the Bulls played side to side was because the Griquas defence rushed them so well, which reminded me a bit of the Japan team's rush defence. They might not have been on top of their game against Griquas, well as much as you would've wanted them to be, but they were the 2 backline players with the least amount of errors on the day. Gans, Ishmaiel and Aplon made a mess of posession, and either knocked on or threw the ball to nobody to keep it alive. They also got over the advantage line, only to have the ball turned over as there were no support, granted, I think this was more the forwards fault than theirs. But I wouldn't be so overcritical of the guys in their first competitive match after being off the pitch for more than 5 months. Something that only happens to these guys in past when they had a serious injury. [/QUOTE]
