Bjorn Basson
The Griquas put in a great first half performance and last five minutes against defending champions the Blue Bulls but a missed try conversion after the hooter cost them a crucial victory.
The Griquas led 27-14 at half-time but a composed second half performance from the Blue Bulls had the Griquas against the ropes and down 39-33 with no time left on the clock. A great turn over from the Griquas put Bjorn Basosn away for his hat-trick of tries but Naas Olivier pushed the conversion just wide as the whole Blue Bulls team rushed the kicker.
Final score 39-38 for the Blue Bulls
