A second poor kick by Steyn,
Morné duffs the 22 drop, out on the full… flok
Another drop?
@ The_Young_Turk: haha! Ja, Craig Joubert is ‘n homophobe!
Stormers scrum… very attacking field position
A minute to go, scrum to Stormers, what can they do here?
Tryyyyyyy
JISSSSSSSSS!!!!
Stormers try…
Stormers het stal geruik
Mooi so Stormpoppies!
Wooohoooo
Liebenberg doing the final damage
Liebenberg in on the hooter, conversion to come
@ grootPIENKsmile: ja, ek weet, hy is ‘n vuil etter! Hehe
Stompies are in full control now.
Stormers 14 / 0 Bulls
Lemoenetyd
Is that “pretty in pink” I hear in the background??
Bulls will have to be far more accurate in the 2Nd Half… Morné too!
Mag die Bulls halftyd hul blou strip aantrek? Ek hoop nie so nie!
I don’t trust these Stompies’ intentions towards the Bullerinas. I think they want to do more than beat them. I think they are thinking more along the lines of a kiss and a cuddle.
Well, we expected this to be tough… and it is… Stormers just using their opportunities better… and defending better.
Worrying that the Bulls are giving away so many penalties!
Aaaaah lekker! KWV en biltong, Stormers besig om die Pienkes pomp en later ‘n lekker braai. Partykeer vergeet ek dat ek nie meer in SA is nie.
Well at least the pink colour will go well with the Bullerinas’ blushes at the end of the game.
Back to some basics for the Bulls, I feel…. play the percentages, take the shots at goal offered
So, what will happen in the 2nd Half?
@ The_Young_Turk: I suspect the same thing. Stormers have never been so eager when engaging in contact.
@ grootPIENKsmile:
Bullerinas will break into a dance routine and score a sneaky try as the Stompies look on in amazement?
This game is far from over … Stormers better keep focus and discipline … the Bulls will come back hard in the second half … no question about it!
Ek voel beter as voor die game, maar gladnie gerus nie … 🙂
Ek hou van die manier waarop die Stormers die Bulls terug-tackle … dis hul specialty … die agterspelers vra ook heeltyd vrae aan die Bulls-verdediging.
Bulls to come back stronger/more orginised in 2nd half
