Uncontested scrum… 2 Canes props in the bin
Aplon just kept out, Koster just kept out
GvA drop goal
Droppie by Van Aswegen… over!
Stormers 23 / 9
121@ grootblousmile:
Stormers conspiracy?
Do I have to walk past the TV naked to get a greeting?
23-9 Stormers
Canes have had very little ball… and they’ve been woeful
Attacking scrum Canes, but it will be uncontested again
126 @ Blue Bird:
Yip!
Don’t expect too many supporters at the Coke Tin. It was absolutely P1SSING down on the way here from the East.
It’s dry here at the moment though but the skies are VERY grey.
Back to contested scrums
126@ Blue Bird:You caught my attention there!!!! Hi BB
Etzebeth impressive, this youngster is going to be beeeeg in the future….Springbok written all over him. He and Juandre Kruger (Bulls), SA has got talent in the lock department, for sure.
Not uncontested, and canes on attack
131 @ Scrumdown:
No excuses!
Hehehehe
@ Scrumdown:
Weather at Twickenham is glorious.
Singing in full swing a rousing rendition of Jerusalem is being belted out at present!
Try Canes.
Good one for them to win?
Try Tim Bateman for the Canes
Easy try on the HT whistle, Bateman, like a knife through butter.23 – 16
Stormers 23 / 16 Canes
Lemoenetyd
Ek trek my woorde terug (102), die Cane bottels lyk nie te sleg vir ‘n span wat met 13 speel nie.
@ Just For Kicks:
Not subtle, but effective!
Wat drink ONS?
If you want some good singing and are geting a bit bored of the Stormers the English and Welsh Anthems will be ringing out at Twickenham in the next few minutes
G O E N G L A N D
I knew I shouldn’t have got my hopes up about the Stompies. Against 13 men and they can’t score a try. And at the end giving away a n easy score against 14
146 @ Blue Bird:
Who is GOEN GLAND?
@ grootblousmile:
Homebrew red, that’s all I have here. Potent though!
Eng/Wales game about to start…cummon Eng….play them Welsh into the ground 🙂
