Grassman loses the ball forward after the kickoff and Pukke have a great attacking platform to attack.
Fantastic counter attack by NMMU. They choose to run the ball back after a kick and Ntsila make a break through the midfield and sets up Skosana who runs in a easy try under the poles. Before the conversion is allowed, Pukke use their White card to check for a possible offside and the scrum, which is denied and the try stands.
Although NMMU look god on attack, they are unable to keep possession for an extended period without an error creeping into their play.
The Madibaz have been superb at stealing at the ruck.
Paul loses the ball forward and Pukke have a midfield scrum on halfway.
NMMU will have to restart their attack from the halfway line after a massive clearance by Welthagen.
NMMU looking good with ball in hand. Pukke don't have an answer thus far. After a brilliant team build up, Dane van der Westhuzen loses the ball forward in a potential try scoring position. Tough break for the PE side.
The teams are back on the park. Kickoff is seconds away.
Pukke end the half with a five pointer. Perfect use of the experimental white card which allowed them to set up the lineout which lead to the try. Pukke have dominated through their forwards and their effective rush defence, but NMMU got better has the first half went on. It is certainly anybody's game in the second 40min.
Pukke have far too much power in their pack and they easily get over the line with an impressive maul.
