Eishhhh, the Stormers are a big disapointment…. for my Bru too
@ bdb:
stem Burton speel lekker
Porky Januarie on for the Stormers.
@ superBul:
Do you think Victor needs a good break before the world cup?
Has he lost his sparkle?
Tip tackle. Advantage. Must be a yellow.
Doppies with a tip-tackle…. hier is bollie
Doppies off for 10.
Lions can’t afford to play a man down.
@ Puma:
Fancy a kebab from the van in the market square, a nice wine will wash that down a treat!!
We know how to live!! Hehehheheh
Yellow for Doppies… nou moet hy gaan doppies blaas op die bank… hehehe
That is Lions game over. SO stupid to get a yellow card. Lets the team down that kinda stuff.
Lionel Cronje misses the sitter
Cronje misses. First missed kickof the game.
Lions need to box clever now.
Cronje overrated.
Dink nie daardie ‘peartackle’ was so erg nie, het al baie erger gesien wat nie gestraf is nie.
@ Blue Bird:128 – Sounds good to me… 🙂
Badddddd touchfinder by Conrad Jantjes
Whitel;y always looks “lomp” when running, but he’s deceptively quick.
Lions pressing.
@ Blue Bird:
Absolutely he must also sit out to get his perspective and focus back. He stopped much of his moaning today, but he conceded at least 2 penalties out of frustration
Lions hard on attack
Scrum 5 for the Stormers, on their own 5
Lions lose a golden opportunity.
Foolish play.
goeie verdediging deur die stormers.
leeus weer ‘n ‘as’ kans daarmee heen.
Ref het Lions hier gerob, daai ou het die bal afgeseel
Attacking line out Lions on Stormers 22
Meerkat scrambles the kick out, not a good touchfinder at all
@ Scrumdown:
Just when I thought the Lions had smelt blood!
@ superBul:
Let’s face it, the ref’s could blow a penalty for either side at any ruck. It’s what grabs their eye first that counts.
Stormers butcher another try… De Jongh, should just have gone for the corner
Stormers butcher another try scoring opportunity!
Looking at Blaauw…. if I had a chin like that I would grow a beard…. hehehe
@ Scrumdown:
that one should have gone to the attacking game. Well that will keep the supporters talking for a while.
