Stormers kicking woeful so far
Saders spill the ball in the tackle…
Saders not handling the tackles well
60 @ Stormersboy:
Stormers doing their job for Sharks next week? 😉
Can someone explain to me why the Stormers kick straight downfield?
Elton Jantjies very tentative…
Stormers penalty on the Saders 10m line
Handling errors galore from both sides so far
Who is the ref? Oh i see ??
Massive intensity as befitting this match. Stormpoppies having the edge at the moment.
5m Stormers lineout
Just a question to the rugby boffs here: am I alone in thinking that Willie le Roux will make a great fly-half?
Tryyyyyyyyy
Tryyyyyyyyyy Kolisi!
@ grootblousmile:
66
that was a very bad pass to Jantjies, are they trying to write him off
That try came from the brilliant kick into the corner from Elton
Great try Stormers.
Good driving maul.
And the Stormpoppies drive to the line. Kolisi and all the forwards! So moer jy ‘n Sader mos!
Stormers 8 / 0 Crusaders
Kolisi jou lekker ding!
Damn, hoe lekker proe die glasie Pinotage nou!
An uncharacteristic miss there for Joe. Only his 4th of the season.
Stormers start looking better in every game
71 @ fender:
No you not alone. I said when they lost Goosen that Le Roux should go to fh for Cheetahs. Have said it here and on keo. I rate Le Roux as a fh.
Go Stormers.
Okay now too long at the pc. Back to the visitors.
Catch up in the break.
Saders certainly getting plenty ball to work with
Jantjies is very much a confidence player. The opposition teams know this and really target him, so that he can’t gain the upper hand. As soon as he does, he is sublime. Let’s hope he can work his magic through the Crusader forward barrage
Fourie is truly hopeless
Stormers muck up another lineout
……at throwing in, that is
Kolisi is an Yster, he is growing in stature and maturity.
