24 here and starting cool down a bit. Feels chilly here. Must be colder in Bloem.
Pietersen tries to pass to whom on his OUTside…. Langbek of couse…
90 @ The_Young_Turk:
One thing is for sure, if Stormers is to win it, their scrum had better improve.
Penalty against captain Adriaan Strauss.. deemed a dangerous tackle… eish
Notafok is that a penalty.
Jonker is useless.
Penalty advantage… and another one, Stormers 2m out
Penalty given and gives Strauss time to speak to his players
5m Lineout for the Stormers
Stormers go for a lineout. Could this be a try coming up?
Where’s Langbek, I don’t see him in the centres…. hehehe
Yellow Card to Willie le Roux
Hier draai die game now, geel kaart…
Stompies showing their intention to score the 4 tries and turning down kick to posts repeatedly. Interesting decision with the game not in the bag yet. They must feel they have the measure of the Cheetahs.
WP behoort nou te score.
Early sack against the Staat, Langbek taken in the air
No man.
NOW the Stormers go for the kick to posts
@ Puma:
Congratulations to your Sharkies…..! A bit of a surprise, rather like this scoreline so far!
Stormers 6 / 3 Cheetahs
Maybe the Stompies need the Cheetahs reduced by another 1 or 2 players before they can score a try…
@ grootblousmile:
Good afternoon, how is the DIY going?
Cheetahs men in front of the kicker, penalty Stormers
Cheetahs gets turnover ball, their scrum
Jonker is n regte babbelbek, wonder of hy ook n onderwyser is!
30 minutes to go
Well not sure who Stormers will play in the semi. It could be Sharks if we make it or Brumbies, but against either of those two teams Stormers had better play a whole lot better than this otherwise they will get beat.
Penalty Staat, and kickable too
Who spends more time in the backline? Bekker or Luke?
