Lions tamed as Jake White's Bulls keep URC play-off hopes on track
By PA
The Bulls maintained strong United Rugby Championship play-off hopes after beating the Lions 25-10 in Johannesburg.
Jake White’s team made it seven wins from 10 league games this season, remaining comfortably in the top four despite not hitting top gear at Emirates Airlines Park.
Wing Canan Moodie scored an outstanding first-half try before replacement forwards Akker van der Merwe and Marcell Coetzee touched down during a dominant second period, and centre David Kriel claimed a bonus-point score six minutes from time.
Johann Goosen kicked a penalty and conversion, with full-back Quan Horn scoring the Lions’ solitary try, converted by Jordan Hendrikse, and Sanele Nohamba landing an early penalty.

Farell is not the greatest flop, he is injured currently, he was a ghost since the begining of the season, but the greatest flop, even anybody was waiting for a miracle, is the coach son, who play every game and is abyssal every time.

30k is a really nice stadium size, but it does bring in the conundrum that it loses appeal when the club turns to hard times, and isn't as popular. So 25k might be a nice middle ground. Where a lot of NZ stadiums sit.
