Round 9 - Bulls v Bunyips Another massive game this week (aren't they all) as the 5th placed Bulls take on the out of form 11th placed Bunyips who have dropped three on the trot. The Bulls have made the trek from Groote Eylandt through the interior of the country to Blanchetown this week in their annual cattle run. The Bulls come in to this clash bruised and battered after coping a hiding last week and losing two star bulls in Coniglio (10 weeks) and leader Rockliff until after the byes. Fortunately there are reserves to bring in to the squad to ensure it is 15 v 15 in what history tells us will be a tight contest.
