Funny having a Tuilangi and a Botha in the English team (scuse spellings)
Over, 32 26 Stormers. GBS, taking a full minute to post now, veeeeeerrrrrrryyyyyy slow
I need the Stormers to score an unconverted try… for Bru
Pieterseun skop goed pale toe.
Eng with penalty….5m from Welsh tryline
England get a chance to kick a penalty with a Welsh player going over the top!
Another scrum penalty Stormers -What a pack!!!!!
The “wreckingball” doing well for Eng today
Yesss..England score
Hits the post, miss
Pieterson trying to close out the game now with another penalty attempt. Hits the post
Eng….9-6 after penalty kick
Stormers lineout, on Canes 22
Stromers on attack, and some sloppy work by the Canes sees a Stormers throw in on the 22
Penalty try to the Stormers
After a devastating driving Maul, Jonker awards a penalty Try
Hoekom die geelkaart ?
Stormers 39 / 26 Canes
Another Canes prop gets a yellow
…and another yellow to boot. Pieterson slots, 39-26 Stormers
Sormers get a free kick from that scrum – did anyone see that coming?
Very proud of the young Eng players so far. Really think the Welsh are spending to much time in the gym. They loo great, they really do, but Eng made use of all their opportunities. Action,action,action the whole time. Eng defense really good and guys working hard.
Jonker, stadig ou maat, die Stormers sal wen, jy help nou te veel.
I thought the slowness was because GBS had his old microwave oven going along with his portable air con system.
We know how difficult things are in Brakpan!
4 Minutes and a few seconds to go
3 minutes to go, Stormers just playing out time now
Scrum to the Stormers… less than 3 minutes left.
Looks like there won’t be a bonus point for tries here either
Penalty Canes, surely no decision needed. Scrum
Penalty Canes, they go for touch… they HAVE to
@ grootblousmile:
Now you can watch some NH rugby and see a really full stadium!!
Another Canes penalty, tap and go
