    Amazing ball skills by Burger, what a player!!!!

    67 – Piet, Agree 100%, Burger playing just AWESOME. Back to his very best, maybe even better than he has ever played.

  • 70

    Schalla, Bekker, Makwilleaaptwakkie, Jaque Fourie combining nicely for that try!

  • 71

    Aplon Ghosts through again, passes to Vermeulen…. Tryyyyyyyyyyyyyy

    Puma
    Burger probably has the “”Clifton flyhalf choking on his 2nd beer 🙂
    I remember how he used to spew bullshyte about Schalla during the Luke/Burger debates on Voldy.

    Kiwis are saying the Stormers are the BEST team in the S14 this year. Well maybe I have to agree with them but think the Bulls are just as good, if Bulls get their defence right think they will edge the Stormers but just as the best.

  • 74

    Stormers must stop throwing the ball around – they’re starting to look like those damn Bulls!

  • 76

    more more, hoesit hoesit!!

    what a game so far by the Stormers, fantastic skills, it is better than that displayed by the Bulls so far, no doubt.

    Hope they thrash the Chiefs by way more than just 4 tries, just to get their big mouths shut.

    Ditto, Stormers strong contenders for this years Tri and CC, damn good team under Schalla now…

  • 78

    This is a bloody good game

  • 79

    ps in CT
    Ja, ek hoop ook die Stormers moer hulle vir n honderd!

    72 – Piet, I have said a lot about that over there. Now I take no notice. I know Burger is a world class player and probably right now the worlds best in his position. He is magnificent.

    Piet have to ask you, I know you supporting the Bulls right now but boeta, you been a WP man for all your life, surely under you chest beats a WP/Stormers heart? You must still feel like a stormer supporter in your heart boet, you have to be so proud of them this year. I know they bought some Boks from other franchise and it makes a difference this year, but they are being so very well coached. A. Coetzee should have been our Bok Coach. He has been around top coaches for years he has so much experience and it is showing now. No-one must tell me it is Rassie, Rassie not even on this tour. Credit to AC and their other coaches.

    Delaney off, Callum Bruce on…. Donald now moves back to Flyhalf

  • 82

    Halfjack Walsh has actually reffed well so far…. cannot believe I just said that

  • 83

    more Oom Piet!!

    long time no speak!

    hoe gaat dit in SK?

  • 84

    Now the Stormers employ the rolling maul…. goes well, then gets penalised

  • 85

    PS IN ct, last week the score was the same against the blues and they didn’t get the bonus point, so stadig oor die kole wanneer jy van die koning bulle praat 🙂

  • 86

    77 – Piet, if there is not a Stormer/Bulls final this year I will be very, very disappointed. Want to see that more than anything. Would kinda revive the past a bit between those teams…….hahaha. Would be massive game if it happened.

  • 87

    Phewwww, Chiefs almost scores

  • 88

    hehe Onerb, jy sallie raai wie ek ondersteun nie, maar die Stormers se skills en samespel is vir my beter hierdie jaar….

    Puma, and that game would probably be ….. at Loftus!

    Hey Oom Piet, dis darem ma lekke innie Kaap, way way beter as waar ek was
