    Puma, now the Cheetahs will hold on to mapoe until 2015 because they will pay for his shoulder op in baragwanath…….just joking. I’m sure he’s on discovery already!

    FS I hope they can beat them, should be a cracker, both teams play an open brand of rugga.

  • 213

    Bulle en Stormers nie te wat wonders nie, maar nog steeds bo op die log, dit is die belangrikste.

    Nou die toere, waar tuissemi’s bepaal gaan word. Altwee spanne moet ten minste 2/4 kry, die Stormers dalk 3/4, want altwee spanne het nog ‘n paar harde wedstryde as hul terugkom van die toer.

    I find the 6 nations very boring and lethargic. Why don’t they play in normal outside weather. Maybe they will produce better viewing.

    214@ SuperBul – Gooi vir ons ‘n Game Thread op vir Ierland / Skotland en hou hom op datum, seblief.

    211 – Onerb, Not sure but he is a really great player. I would have him at the Sharks in no time……hehehehe.

    Sorry to see him go down today. Cheetahs not the same without Brussow.

    Still not many sides keep out Stormers from the Bonus. Cheetahs did. If that is anything to go by.

    S. Burggggggggggggggggggggerrrrrrrrrrr. IS THE MAN. Damn he is playing brilliant, brilliant rugby at the moment. If Stormers don’t want him send him to the Sharks……..hahahaha.

    Best Captain. Has to be John. Puts his team first. Will play any position for the team. A real Captain for sure.

    Now out of here.

  • 222

    Double second you Puma,

    Lambie brilliant, Smit brilliant, Pienaar needs to learn from his captain and give his best at FH.

  • 223

    Come to the cricket or the 6N threads

  • 224

    GBS- any chance to get it on youtube? Will like to see again as I thought it was a cheap shot.

  • 225

    224@ Onerb – I did not record the match, otherwise I would have gladly captured it and put it on here or Youtube for that matter. Someone will do it, just wait a bit, I’m sure.

    I’ve put some Photo’s on which I captured live… see at the top!

    VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!

    226@ Loskoppie – Commisserations on the loss…

  • 228

    227- Thanks GBS. We were beaten by a better team.

  • 229

    nee loosehead ons het teen ons self verloor naas het 4 skoppe gemis en ons het seker 6 turnovers afgestaan op die stormers se doellyn en dit net omdat ons te haastig was

    Julle sou nooit deur die verdediging kom nie maat, en julle is stukkend geskrum met tye. Julle het wragtig heldhaftig gespeel, en gegee soveel as julle gekry het, maar moet nou nie met daai ons het teen onself verloor stories kom nie, dit was julle beste, maar hierdie is nie 2009 se Stormers nie.
