Show notes
The Bulls took the Lions apart from the first whistle in a hot Pretoria. We look at what went wrong for the Lions: was it complacency, or are there deeper problems? We also cover the numbers and key moments that showed how much better the Bulls were, the mauls and captaincy calls that shaped the game, and why the Bulls attack suddenly looks so confident and flexible. Along the way: why the match had water breaks and how heat protocols work, the Bulls' selection depth and the Pollard question at fly-half, how playing in Europe has made South African rugby better, and how Ackermann's empathy and focus on culture are behind the Bulls' rise. To finish, we preview the Champions Cup clash with the Men in Pink, share Moodie injury news and give the Springbok Women a shoutout.
