Oh and axle breakages and radiator holes – it was amazing – I love Namibia
Stormers willing to run everything… but can they score tries?
Stormers looking to open this game up a bit, lets hope they get a few tries this time!!!
Nice one Pietersen
Pieterson playing a bit close to the wind there!
Rubbles have come to play but do they have the firepower? Will they be reduced to a rabble or will they bury the Stompies under their rubble?
Looks like Kolisi has added some bulk this season
Who’s that farking centre again – he’s got No.5 on his back
Paaaasss Bekker
Flok Langbek… centres it is again
Habannnnnnnnna
Wooohhoooo
No try though, but it looked good, hahaha
Habana through, but tackled… and he got up and went again
blast
Crap decision.
No try, in stead a penalty to the Rubbles
Tryyyyyyyyyyy De Jongh
Fantabulous!!!!!
Try Juan de Jongh
Stormers mean business today!
Great interplay, from a missed penalty touch by Rebels sees De Jongh in under the posts
Stormers 13/0 Rebels 15 min
.. and for once Langbek was’nt in the centres to muck it up….
Stormers 13 / 0 Rebels
Joe Pietersen kicks directly into touch
LangBek is everywhere in the backline. The gallopping camel looks determined to show the backline players how to play. Nice try by JdJ. Another 3 needed to break the magic hurdle of 4! Another 65 mins left, is it enough time for the Stormpoppies?
I can’t say it, STOR…….no I can’t.
Rebels with a slight forward pass, scrum Stormers
