Bekker has been massive in this game.
115 @ The_Young_Turk: Yeah, you can see that the Stormers have a very powerful pack, they must use it it balance with their wide play.
Stormers penalty, quick tap…. and they attack…. should have gone for posts…. yeah, they should have because the Staat gets a relieving penalty
looks like someone lit a fuse under the Stompies, they are all fired up and just want to run every ball of of a sudden. Did they perhaps change the coach?
TMO first going through Juan de Jongh’s rugby career to see if he has ever knocked a ball on before though.
Lovely stuff from the Stormers, thats two for JdJ
Good grief some ferocious big hits here. Gonna be some real sore bodies after this game.
Stormers almost over…. penalty on the 5, quick tap…. Juan de Jongh over for the try!
moenie vir aplon spasie gee nie bliksems hou die bal weg van hom af
They were all fucking offside!
Stormers 15 / 7 Cheetahs
124 @ The_Young_Turk: I think Proudfoot stuck a very proud foot right up the forwards jacksies, with an extra one for Bekker and Fourie. Forwards have been outstanding so far!!!
Lemoenetyd
Unlucky for the Staat there as they were offside, but good play by the Stompies.
There goes the hooter. All dudes without passes must be out of Bloemfontein
Time to recharge the drinks and to break open a fresh tin of condensed milk….
@ Loosehead:
Jip, and the one that should have gone to the TMO didn’t
Wat drink ons?
Perhaps thats why ALL tries should be TMO adjudged?
die bleddie ref maak die Cheetahs nou so de moer in hulle gaan volgende week die Bulle gas gee
@ leon:
Shouldn’t go to the TMO, as the try came from a penalty and so the period before that can’t be referred.
Watching this on Fox (New Zealand) – every advert is farming or building related, non of this cell phone or Spur rubbish, they make real men over there!
@ Loosehead:
who was offside under what law?
143 @ Bliksem:
Deon Fourie was accidentally offside with Gio Aplon’s kick going forward, hitting Deon Fourie (in front of Gio) on the foot…. simple, really
@ Bliksem:
Kitskos who picked up the ball was offside.
@ grootblousmile:
Ah yes, that happened before.
SS commentators are big dose.
” we dont want to critisize refs but Berry should have gone for TMO, hahahaha
This is a game changing mistake
. now the cheetahs must play catch up, they dont have any choice
. a 7 pointer can always be reviewed , Berry tried to be a clever boikie
@ superBul:
daai engelse man is NIE my gunsteling rev nie
@ Bliksem:
Kitshoff, accidental as the ball was kicked forward by one Stompie into another, scrum down to the Cheetahs.
Naka says it as it is. No beating about the bush a la AC
