@ grootblousmile:
Thanks Rudi. If I go AWOL it’s not because I bumped into Kurtley Beale in a hotel pub, it’s because the Interweb is broken again 🙂
Saders pinning the Stormers back and doing all the play at the moment
Better lineout
How the Fark can a hooker throw so kuk, so continuously in the line out. it’s his principal job – he should be able to do it in his sleep.
Stormers steal a Saders lineout…
A quick observation, they try and kick behind the Stormers backs
31 @ Stormersboy:
No problem…. enjoy the game
Stormers scrum, after a double knock
Looks like a Stormers penalty coming….
Stormers tackle them back, lets see how they react to THAT
Yip… and they kick for touch
Good work by the assitant ref. penalise the cheats
No.3 lost, eish
Saders steal another… because the Stormers go to the back of the lineout yet again
Better lineout as they go to the middle of the lineout
Good grief but Deon Fourie is really terrible with the throwing in.
Kickable
FFS, the Stompies will only be able to contest the Saders line out. With Deon they have basically concede their own throw in.
Stormers penalty… easy one to goal it should be… 30m out, straight in front
As high up as i am sitting I could actually hear the contact of the hit that Steenkamp put on the Saders player. Nice one!
Stormers 3 / 0 Crusaders
Jis julle…
And we win a line out!
Congrats to Smallies for the Cheetahs win and on the Bloem Town Council for improving the pitch which was shocking against the Sharks.
First the jeers then the cheers , witch was the strongest
THAT’s why they’re called Stormpoppies 😉
Pat with a couple of nice runs
Jantjies with a bad knock… eish man
Eish Elton’s hands let him down there and knocks on.
Jinne Jantjies!
And Hurdles saves the day.
Saders prop off injured… looks like a rib injury
These Crusaders pounce quickly on any errors. An observation on the intensity down there, almost every time there is a first phase restart ofplay there is a player down needing some attention. Crusaders Sub Franks for Moody.
