Evening all, goooo Stormers!
Yebo yes
Stormers to do the business tonight @ Stormersboy:
1 @ Stormersboy:
Stormpoppieboy… I leave it in your capable hands!
Enjoy!
Players taking to the field, clear and crisp evening. Here’s hoping for minimal errors and a good game.
@ grootblousmile:
On it boss.
🙂
Game on
@ Stormersboy:
Is Tiaan injured again?
Don’t know why we keep him on the books, he hardly takes to the field
Cheetahs putting a lot of pressure on the Stormers. Kick into the 22 goes too long and De Allende gets the mark. Stormers defending a lot though
@ nortierd:
Agreed. We need to invest in a bankable hooker
Niiiice, Handbags.
8 @ Stormersboy: We need to invest in quite a lot, starting at the top!
The guys still going back and forth a bit. Cheetahs still looking the better team for now. Some errors though
Stormers taking the ball up strongly, in the Cheetahs 22, driving up but spill the ball in a crucial moment, scrum Cheetahs 6 meters out
Cheetahs clear, ball run back upfield by Habana, slips and maul, scrum Cheetahs
Cheetahs move the ball up into the Stormers 22 but they retain possession and clear. Lineout Cheetahs
Cheetahs force the penalty, 3-0.
Stormers under pressure in their own half, Cheetahs pinged for off-side, as the say in the classics, Pieterson bring groot verligting!
Stormers take play up into the Cheetahs 22, Bryan goes for the line, 5 meters short, knock on and Cheetahs scrum.
A bit of arial ping pong on the go, both teams going the territory root, still quite even.
Both sides conspiring to lose this one at the moment
Ball going back and forth between the teams, no one really getting any ascendency in play, quite a few turnovers on both sides, Stormers moving upfield.
Scrum penalty to the Stormers, Joe will take a shot at goal.
Penalty good, 3 all.
Stormers take the ball up strongly, force the penalty on the Cheetahs 22, Elton kicks for the line. Danger time for the Cheetahs,
At last
Ball to Fourie off the lineout, Fourie goes over for the try.
Conversion is good, Stormers 10 – 3 Cheetahs.
Cheetahs with some work to do in the second half – I don’t think I have seen them play as badly as this, this season.
Another very average SR game. Outta here, enjoy the second half, and hope it gets better
naand almal net gou iets.hoekom spoeg die spelers so flok dis swak maniere
Still scrappy with too many errors.
Higgledy Piggledy and Helter Skelter according to Skinstadt.
