More diificult for me to post on my phone than the Stormers to score 4 tries in a match….and that says a lot.
@ Pietman:
Yip, Kolisi is a great talent and the sub Quin Roux made more of a difference than Bekker did.
See you guys at Moftus, till later!
I think Grant kicks better than Steyn.
Must say I found the discussions after the Springboks’ (and Morné’s) woeful performance last week, amusing in that Peter Grant was never mentioned … I hope HM has noticed him now. Not that I mind from a selfish point of view – I am not big on top-tier IRB-rugby until they sort the refereeing out in a public manner.
Apart from that, I am happy for the Stormers win … couldn’t watch the match … had to drive to Cape Town and back to Stellies during the match … 🙁

Agree … and what about attacking the line, tackling and tactical kicking?
Obviously Oom Heyneke does not trust him … 🙂
