    Die skopper van die Force lyk soos Ruan van vroeer. Sy body language is bad, en hy speel ook so.

    force speel net eerste helfte, laaste 3 wedstryde halftyd voor, en sak dan uit. Dink die Stormers gaan net-net wen.

  • 129

    125 – Hello ps in CT. Stormers are too good a team to lose this. They will come back in the 2nd half. Don’t see the Force winning this.

    128 – bdb, Stormers will win this one. Think they will pull away in the 2nd half. Far better team than how they played in the 2nd half. Dewaldt should come on too.

    131@ ps in CT – Hello vreemdeling, hoekom was jy so skaars??

  • 135

    131 – ps in CT, Stormers are far too good a team to let this one slip. They will come back in the 2nd half. First half was scrappy though but cant see them play like that for the whole game. They will pull away.

  • 136
