Beers with the Boys, Libbok in the rain and the Bulls battles abroad

RugbyBits

Jared and Thala review Week 5’s URC action for the South African sides.

They both laud Manie Libbok’s quality performance in the rain and discuss the decision to go for the drop goal in the last minute, as the Stormers played in the rain on Friday night.

Looking at the Lions loss to Ulster, they look at what is different about the Lions this season, the turning points in the game and massive games from the Lions loosies and Duane Vermeulen.

The Sharks review looks at their tight five being bolstered by Eben Etzebeth and how they can build cohesion in the team, while the discussion of the Bulls loss in Munster examines the battles the Bulls tight five had against Munster’s big boys.

The #FirstPhase question looked at which rugby player would you have a beer with, past or present, and shoutouts were made to Butch James, Schalk Burger, Siya Kolisi and even Rassie Erasmus.
