Nice take by Aplon and now Stompies line out on the 5m line.
What a absolutely kak throw in!
Piet van Zyl now kicks directly out….
Skew throw-in by Fourie, Staat scrum
Early engage by the Staat, Free Kick Stormers
Penalty advantage Stormers… and given.
Stormers were almost in for the try
Shot at goal, very easy one for Pop-gun Grant
Stormers are dragging the Vrystaat down to their level of boringness.
Stormers 3 / 0 Cheetahs
langbek bly maar n kuk senter….
Waarheen moet die man ‘roll away’ as onder in die losskrum vasgevang is?
Stormers take the penalty. Was good running by the Stormpoppies and Cheetahs look vulnerable.
As it stands I see 1 to 3 tries total in the whole match, at best
Almost.
Staat close… massive Stormers defensive out close
Geez, that was great defense by the Stompies. I thought the Cheetahs would score for sure there.
Not going to be a big scoring game, that’s for sure
Stormers must be the best defensive side in the comp…
Stormers penalty on their own 10m line
@ grootblousmile:
Knowing the Stormpoppies, they could very well win just on kicks.
Fark, Langbek Bekker out at centre yet again… and of course the ball goes no further, in fact Staat gets a relieving penalty
Everytime the Stormers get a good movement going, it breaks down for one reason or other.
Langbek just cannot stay out of the centres… not at all
Hats off to the Cheetahs defense. They have been ruthless.
Brussow steals one, just for Willie le Roux to knock
3 Points in 28 minutes… wow
@ grootblousmile:
Ja, hy sukkel vandag daar op senter innie nat weer, hehehehe! Sy pa het net so graag vleuel gespeel…regte kameelperd gewees.
Kitskos got monstered in that scrum
Stormers scrum is kak.
Once again Langbek receives it in midfield…. and the eventuality is the Staat gets a turnover
Bekker op senter….en daar gaat Strauss!
