**The Vodacom Bulls continued their charge towards a possible Vodacom United Rugby Championship play-off place by claiming an emphatic 55-20 victory over the Dragons in Pretoria.** The Dragons conceded eight tries at Loftus Versfeld, although they also delivered three of their own in an entertaining encounter. Full-back Kurt-Lee Arendse and centre Lionel Mapoe each claimed doubles, while there were also Bulls touchdowns for number eight Arno Botha, hooker Johan Grobbelaar, flanker Marcell Coetzee and substitute Zak Burger. Chris Smith kicked five conversions and a penalty, and Morne Steyn converted Burger’s score, while the Dragons posted tries for wings Rio Dyer and Jared Rosser, plus fly-half Sam Davies, who also booted a penalty and conversion. It took only four minutes for the Bulls to display their enviable power up front, and although the Dragons initially thwarted a driving maul, they could not clear and Botha claimed a try that Smith converted.
