Stompies just can’t break this fierce Cheetahs defense.
53 @ The_Young_Turk:
Now tell me in all honesty… don’t you think Langbek is MUCH kakker than Spies… come on, be honest
@ grootblousmile:@59
Jean moet sy gat skop…jaag hom terug voorries toe.
63 @ Pietman:
Janee, wragtig!
Kitskos monstered again as well as a scrum penalty against Malherbe
3-3 coming up, Cheetahs to strong up front.
Shot at goal by Riaan Smit
Malherbe is the weak link in the Stompies front row, not Kitskos.
Misses to the right
And to think ghat some folks expect Kitshof and Malherbe to become Boks.
Mis, ek het te gou gepraat….3 points wasted there.
High tackle by Langbek goes unnoticed
Another penalty to the Staat, on the 22, in front
Stormers 3 / 3 Cheetahs
Riaan Smit falls flat on his arse as he shanks a kick nearly into the Stormers hands
Only way Stormpoppies are going to finish top of the log is by the Canes doing them a favour against the Chiefs. There is no way that they are going to score a bonus point win.

Kuk skop Le Roux, lekker aanvalsgeleentheid gewees.
What a disappointing half of rugby. Probably the conditions are playing a role.
Jinne, Toetie will have to speak to his side… and not mince his words
79 @ The_Young_Turk:
Conditions making for a difficult and error prone game
Howzit everyone.
Boring, boring game. Eventually watched some of the tennis with my better half and that was boring too…….
Mitchell’s Milk &Honey ale, in case anyone wonders.
83 @ Puma:
The way the Stormers are playing, one would not say they are close to championship contenders
84 @ Loosehead:
Jeretjie-pik-my, this side
My weather gadget says it’s 18 Degrees C outside here in the Panne at the moment… but heck I don’t know… must be more chilly
85 @ grootblousmile:
Well for now they certainly don’t look it. They could be saving themselves for the Rebels…hehehe.
2 Nd Half ON!
@ grootblousmile:
Looks like if they are going to win this championship, they will do it by grinding out win after win.
