Canan Moodie hat-trick stands out in Bulls' rampage versus Zebre
By PA
The Bulls closed in on the URC playoffs with a 78-12 thrashing of Zebre Parma in Johannesburg. Wing Canan Moodie claimed a hat-trick as the Bulls scored 11 tries and fly-half Johan Goosen kicked 23 points.
Scrum-half Embrose Papier and lock forward Ruan Vermaak both crossed twice as Zebre wilted at altitude. Gerhard Steenekamp, Marco van Staden, Bismarck du Plessis and Chris Smith completed the Bulls’ try rampage.
Zebre, who remain without a win for almost 12 months, claimed consolation scores through Richard Kriel and Chris Cook.
Smith’s try in the final moments saw Bulls register the most points in a URC fixture, eclipsing the 75 that the Ospreys managed against Benetton in February 2014.

Go to commentsGreat win by Edinburgh who ran Leinster close first match.
Glasgow's problem now is almost certainly they will have to defeat Leinster in Dublin in the knock outs to retain the urc title. They are too far behind. That encounter might prove useful for scouting, but nothing else. They have to face Leinster in Dublin last match of the league also probably needing to win to hold position. Leinster will hurt them.
This Leinster defense is starting to look outstanding.
