Joe Pietersen just, just bundled out… good play!
Stormers nou wakker gemoer, lyk my.
Defensive Farce scrum…. big pressure
Stormers playing better rugby now, using the conditions to their advantage. Big scrum please
Genia op pad na Force en Graham Henry sit ook daar…hhhhhmmmmmm
Langbek knocks in the lineout… again… Force steal the ball
Bad knock by Joe Pietersen.. and the ball goes out
Good chance for the Farce here
Fortunate Farce knock
Langbek has been average to poor
Stormers penalty…
Ratty and shitty rugby, this… difficult in this weather
What a kak kick
70@ grootblousmile:You’re being too kind. I’ll say it as it is – he is hondkak at the moment
Elstadt off for blood
@ Just For Kicks:
Jip, but that’s Grant, line kicking his weakpoint.
Force making tons of ground… then Harvey farks it all up
Farce string together some nice phases there
Stormers forwards being absolutely bullied in this match
Langbek injured… but will continue
There goes captain number what????
I love proper popcorn with salt and melted butter.
Farce scrum penalty, against Kitskos… shot at goal
Stormers will have to pull finger here, or they may easily lose this scramble….they look very bunt out…., thinking of going home.
Missed well left, kak kick
81 @ Loosehead:
Or proper popcorn with icing sugar…
Stormers penalty, a hand slapped the ball out of Habana’s hands.. Salesi Mafu
It has to be a card, ref warned them earlier
