Skitterende spandrie, mooi Stormers.
Crusaders 22 / 21 Stormers
Great patience displayed by the Stormpoppies. Relentless pressure, going through the phases methodically until the defense cracks. Awesome thinking rugby.
Stormers hit back with a try, love it…..hehe. Pity Joe never converted.
So what there was a knock on before, but really it is time the saffa teams get away with some. We never do.
GO STORMERS GO…
Make them tired boys keep them tackling all game, they will tire.
Some luck went the Stormers way there – perhaps the old proverb, “cheaters never prosper” will prosper tonight!
ek is seker ek is gryser as toe di game begin … en daars nog ñ kwart vd game oor!!
Dang
Saders relieving penalty… eish man!
Stormers lyk fikser en Saders raak moeg.

About time we get away with somethings. 🙂
Fluck, if only JDJ would / could pass.
No man Stormers don’t give away points straight after scoring.
Stompies seem to have the wind slowly filling their sails. Can they steer their ship safely to a port victory?????
Close game…. can fall either way
C’mon Stormers, you can do it!
That blocking again, fark
Saders penalty against Elstadt… very, very kickable
Fairs fair
Elstadt cops a yellow… same shit as the first yellow of the game
Crusaders 25 / 21 Stormers
Kak from the ref.
Well, that seems to be the end for the Stormpoppies advance. Now down to 14 in the final 15. What are their chances now. Need the rugby gods to intervene.
Stormers making it hard for themselves now with 14 men.
Play it tight boys, don’t let them score with one man down.
Go Stormers.
Franks is a fatty isn’t he? Very strong and able fatty though!
Tom Taylor has scored ALL the Saders points, so far
Stormers really going to struggle to finish this game now
Saders scrum penalty…. and this one is kickable too
