Tuks had it all in the first 20 minutes, opening a gap of 19-0 in the first 15. At one stage they led 27-7 before Tuks centre Jean du Plessis' red card for a spear tackle turned the macth on its head.
Tuks now have the big task of travelling to Potchefstroom on Monday to take on Pukke, a more desperate side after two straight defeats.
