The 30-plus degree heat also seemed to sap the energy out of the Coetzee’s men, as they took a number of wrong options when in possession as well – in one instance, centre Marco Jansen van Vuren chose to go for the line instead of passing inside to Nizaam Carr or Ivan van Zyl, and he was tackled into touch.

Flyhalf Chris Smith then slotted a penalty from the halfway line to level the scores at 8-8, and it looked like the Bulls were back in the game.
