AAPPPEEELLLTTTJJJIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE
There is a saying: “Fuck size”
Amper weer Aplon !!!!
Carr speel n moosa hy game, hy tekkel hulle fktup, mooi ou seun!!!!
Stormers look so much better when on attack, rather than when they go into defensive mode. When will someone tell them defence doesn’t win you matches any more – the rugby bible’s been re-written!

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog!
Aplon steals a vital ground ball… great snakes, that was good

O flok, Verbrokkel Harris is on… hehehe
That flyhalf channel is a nightmare. Half the Storm,ers team are trying to cover it, and it’s leaving gaping holes outside. Hurricanes are exploiting it well
My frikkin senuwees manne
Think I must break out the provisions… got some lekker Kudu biltong as well as some Droë Wors Ore….
That last scrum a perfect example. de Villiers into F/H and Pieterson to clear. No sign on v Aswegen
Canes knock, on their own 22.. great attacking chance for the Stormers, both sides of the scrum will have oodles of space

enjoy, woes honger aan my kant maar sal stik aan kos nou
every Hurricanes knock on is like a small victory with this small points margin
@ Just For Kicks:
@100 Zactly, problem that…
Jeez manne, ons begrawe die mense left, right and centre…. got one body in yesterday afternoon late and 2 already this morning….
Canes penalty on their 22.
The bodies will be stuffed after this game!
Maybe I’m being a bit harsh – has van Aswegen been replaced? I cant see him on the field!
4 Minutes to go in the match
Personally can’t wait for Grant to recover and start playing again at 10
Canes knock again, on their own 22 again….
Come on Stormers, take this game beyond doubt now!
Carr bleeding for the cause, Elstadt back on as blood sub
2 Minutes to go… reset scrum
No, he is still there. I don’t think in my entire life of rugby watching, I have ever seen a team try to hide a player as much as the Stormers have done with van Aswegen in this match. I see an article coming on on this one!
Langbek knocks at the base of the ruck, Canes scrum inside their own 22
Stormers manage to get the vital turnover scrum…. time is up on the clock
All they have to do is get their own ball…
No one should EVER say again the Stormers can’t scrum.
PERIOD
