    Gbs, who in the Stormers backline can distribute consistently well off both flanks?

    en lat ons nou nie eens van samespel praat nie….

    All individualists.

    Grant, De Villiers & Juan de Jongh CAN distribute, if they put their mind to it

    Grant maybe. The other two definitely cannot and the Stormers have the track record to prove it.

    If HM believed JdV could distribute he would let him play 12. But he does not.

    about the conditions for this game …. i’m sorry, but i’ve seen teams play much better rugby in the same conditions. a game that comes to mind is the first bledisloe encounter between the all blacks and wallabies, wellington 1996. conditions was about the same as it was on saturday. final score 43-6 to the all blacks.
    why i still remember that game? although the wallabies stuggled to come to terms with the conditions, the all blacks’ first knock-on came after more than 20 minutes in that game. by that time (i think) theyve scored 2 or 3 tries (not sure about that one anymore).
