Stormers (10) 10 / Crusaders (23) 29 (Final Score)
The DHL Stormers hosted the Crusaders at Newlands, Cape Town. Stormers was forced to change their team. Dewald Duvenhage out, Louis Schreuder in. That disruption did not cost them the game, they also lost their inspirational captain at half time. Schalk Burger did not return from the changeroom, he broke a finger. The forwards of the Crusaders dominated the Stormers. At scrumtime the Stormers were not up to it. More to follow…..
Scorers:
Stormers: 1 Penalty & 1 Conversion Peter Grant, 1 Try Bryan Habana
Crusaders: 5 Penalties & 2 Conversions Dan Carter, 1 Try Sean Maitland, 1 Try Robbie Fruean

time flew in the Reds game , maybe father time is hitting back because it feels like eternity before this game starts.
Time on strike.

Dewald is not playing today. Louis Schreuder replaced him. more to follow, i dont know who is the reserve 9 now.
oooh NO, 8/9/10 (10 Peter Grant, 9 Louis Schreuder , 8 Nick Koster) is now not a solid in form unit.
Nick Groom is now the reserve no 9
Kick off by Peter Grant
Game on……
That was a high tackle on Jantjes!
Penalty Stormers , but also unbelievable defense by Crusaders
Peter Grant has a chance to become the Boks 1st choice 10.
3-0 to the Stormers.
I see that Schreuder also has to take 2 steps before he passes.
Teams feeling each other out , another penalty to Stormers. Lineout
