@ Blue Bird:
I agree. The Welsh are the form team, but look at what happened between the Sharks and Blue Bulls. Young Eng team, but so much potencial and energy. Really hope it goes well for them.
Een telletubby word vervang deur ‘n ander stormers telletubby.
Intercept no.2, well hunted down by the Stormers and Aplon
@ The_Young_Turk:
Still 0 – 0 at Twickenham!
Close! Langbek’s loop pass nearly ended up under their posts!!!!
Bekker is a flippin disaster with ball in hand.
Why can’t he concentrate on his core competencies?
Attendance 38,265, shocking
Stormers determined to give this game to the Canes!
Think Welsh are spending to much time in the gym….to much brawn….little brains
Missed Welsh penalty….
Another scrum penalty Stormers – well at least we’re not the worst in the competition!!!

Goes well?
i hope they cahse the Taffy bastids back down the pit.
187 @ Just For Kicks:
So, Loftus with their 46 111 has been the biggest attendance of the week in Super Rugby.
Pieterson slots it 26-23 Stormers
Stormers penalty… Pietersen slots it
Stormers 26 / 23 Canes
Cummon ENG!!!!!
192@ Scrumdown:
Sh1t, my typing is nearly as bad as Puma’s.
At least I can blame the fading light in the Coke Tin stand.
Great maul, great run Duvenage and Kolisi – who’s been everywhere since replacing Schalk
2 Locks came to prominence this week for SA…. Eben Etsebeth and Juandre Kruger
Stormers can’t bear the weight of expectations if they should win this match and so have decided it’s better to let the Canes win.
Farrell kicks a penalty for England
And another penalty Stormers, Pieterson lines it up
Penalty Stormers, another kickable one for Pietersen
@ Scrumdown:
totally agree 🙂
Stormers 29 / 23 Canes
Pieterson slots it 29-23 Stormers. Have Stormers woken up again, I hope so
Stormers het groot senters, Bekker en Malherbe, bietjie stadig maar baie groot.
Penalty kick for Eng….3/0
@ bos_otter:
Nice to have a Saffa shouting for England, often I am a lone voice here!! lol
Wales get their first penalty!
Negative play by these NZ Hillbilly’s, disrupting Stormer’s flair…
