@ Cheetah4eva:
congrats boet, good comeback, must say stormers did not look good, although not their strongest lineup
February 2nd, 2013 at 19:15 SAST
I only managed to watch from Habana’s cowardly attack on the Freestater.
How did Juan play?

@ Sharks_forever:
Ta boet, exhachary, twas a warm up match, and Naka dis use 27 players, 28 if we count Habana lol.
They don’t have much coming back in the scrum, only Schalla, Elstadt, Bekker and Fourie.
Was also by far not the Cheetahs best, so I think the Stormers wioll be kicking themselves. Was their first practice run, but this was also a mix en meng team for Naka. I mean Benjamin at 12??

@ smallies:
Nie waar nie, Habana se knie het gejeuk, toe krap hy dit so bietjie of Viljoen se gesig

@ Cheetah4eva:
True
I reckon our rugby over all is looking very good

@ Sharks_forever:
When are the Tjarks playing the Leopards? Aren’t you a tad concerned at the quality of the opposition for your warmups. The Pumas aren’t too bad, but still no Super 15 quality teams

@ Cheetah4eva:
Not really, Sharks used to play these tough warm up matches and it counted for nothing accept an injury or 2
thats why they decided to not go that route, Sharks are more intent on getting their combo’s together, i kno9w they have a squad of 40 together and are playing each other in the week as they practice.

Sorry and ther Sharks play the Leopards this comming weekend

So no word on a citing for the Stormers thug yet?
Yellow card for kneeing a player in the face makes a mockery of the judicary.
February 3rd, 2013 at 15:27 SAST
Am I correct in saying that the Stormers failled to, once again score four tries, in their defeat to the semi professional Cheetah outfit?

@ Loosehead:
Yes they did. The guys coming back from beer drinking and getting fat at braai’s failed and lost to 27 players of the Cheetahs.
