Flap caps needing 70 runs now. Sox wickets down: 26 overs left. Williamson and Santner batting.

Stormers scoring immediately after halftime. Better than conceding a try I suppose.

Ek dink die Lions gaan gemaklik wên… die Bulls is aan die verbeter, maar hulle is nognie daar waar dit saakmaak nie.

Ek hoop net vir ‘n heel beter seisoen vir die Bulls as in 2017… daar moet vordering wees… hulle moet aan die opbou en verbeter wees…

Try Saders, against SP Marais.

I am worried about the Stormers for the year…. bad flyhalves and no real depth at flyhalf, seriously limited inside centre in Damian de Allende, light on defence on one or both wings, lack of proper depth in hooker department.

And on top of it all I do not rate Fleckie as a coach.

McLook on 3 March 2018 at 9:42 am

Eish Wiese just butchered a try.

Yip. Baie nuuskierig om impak van Mitchell te sien. Glo en hoop hy gaan ‘n positiewe impsk op bulls rugby hê.

Try JD Schickerling, Stormers!

Stormers hou dit nou tussen die voorsplelers met resultate.

Agree, also not rating Fleckie.

Teen die Hurricanes kon jy presies die John Mitchell plan van die Bulls sien… en dit het gewerk… maar die Canes is nie ‘n span wat met hul voorspelers kan domineer nie.

Ek dink teen spanne wat bleddie goed in die voorries is, gaan die Bulls nog aftjop!

McLook on 3 March 2018 at 9:51 am

Flap capa neefing 6.8 runs per over. 6 wivkets down. Williamson on 79.

Stormers have NEVER won in New Zealand…. phweeeew… only 1 draw in 1996.

Did’nt know the track record there was that abhorrent!
53

grootblousmile on 3 March 2018 at 9:55 am

Saders kickable penalty, kicked towards the far left corner.

Tyd sal leer maar is dalk goed vir bulls rugby om minder afhanklik van voorspeler oorheersing te wees. Hulle het te voorspelbaar gerssk. As jy bulls wil wen domineer hulle skrum en lynstaan of haal daardie fasette uit die wedstryd.

Easy Saders try, Seta Tamanivalu!

Sure they had a big win against the Blues about 10 years ago. Hendrik somebody tackled the shyte out of Carlos Spencer that day.

Saders penalty, 10m from their own line.

54 @ McLook:
Solank daar vernuwing en verbetering in die Bulls is… in alle fassette, sal ek gelukkig wees.

57 @ McLook:
Ek is nie ‘n stats guru nie, het maar net gehoor die kommentators sê die Stormers het nog nooit in NZ gewen nie.

Saders getting penalty after penalty… this time they kick to the near right corner.
