Terrific game so far have to say. Do we need Super Rugby? …hehehe. Really this is a saffa derby and it has to be the best game of the weekend so far.
@ superBul:
He seems to have taken this opportunity with both hands. maybe he’s matured enough to realise that it’s his last chance.
209 @ superBul:
Burton speel blerrie goed vanaand… jy’s reg
211 @ Puma:
Could be Currie Cup going on there. Saffa Derby games are the best.
Stormers playing their ‘nowhere’ rugby again. Staat would be ahead, if it wasn’t for their handling errors this half
Ag nee man Gary. Why did you have to kick?
@ smallies:
Well Sarel was lank op heh?
208 @ The_Young_Turk:
Exactly Turk. We could very well stick with Currie Cup. Why have the Super Rugby when playing against each other is far better? Well we do need New Zealand they bring something special to this tourney as well. Oz not so much expect two of their teams.
14 Minutes to go…. which side will this game fall?
Just a pity Sarel went off. He added a huge spark back to the Cheetahs game.
@ Bliksem:
hy het jippo guts gehad gister sit nou op die toilet
STORMERS sending Elton back to the Lions in a DHL Box?
Beautifulllllllll kick
219 @ grootblousmile:
Altitide might come into it with Stormers, they may tire. Then Cheetahs have had no rest since coming back from their tour. They too may tire.
Great game so far.
What a beauty Burten
Brilliant drop goal by Burton Francis…. over!
TMO

Best game of the weekend so far. Enjoying this derby game.
@ smallies:

Cheetahs 23 / 21 Stormers
Blerrie berry tried to deny the Cheetahs
Thanks Francis. Maybe we will start playing not so nervously trailing now
12 Minutes to go… Stormers now inside the Staat half…
And Francis, the journeyman, becomes the new hero of Bloem.
Rhodes knocks a good ball… eish
A LONG 10 minutes to go
@ Bliksem:
