Willie le Roux making a big mistake kicking a ball directly into touch. Stormers lineout close to the 22.
Resulting move forcing an error from the Cheetahs, Penalty Stormers.
berry is lag lag die kakste rev in sa
Pieterson converts the penalty. 13-3 to the Stormers.
Finally can get to watch a bit of rugby uninterrupted. See Willie has had a few bad kicks.
Dodgy penalty against Sadie sees Joe go for poles again.
Penalty good, 16 – 3.
Cheetahs take it up into the Stormers 22 but a great turnover by Kolisi sees the ball go downfield.
Penalty Cheetahs, player not rolling away, Smit to go for goal.
Penalty missed, still 16-3
Stormers get a penalty, Joe takes play to the Cheetahs 22
Big scrum from the Stormers leads to a hack upfield from Fourie, Rhule carried the ball back over so scrum Stormers on the 5m.
Kolisi smashes over for a try! Great game from him so far.
Nice pressure there by the Stormpoppies and good step by Jantjies to send Siya storming through!
Conversion is good, 23-3.
Think that puts the result beyond doubt. Can’t see the Staat getting 3 tries in 13 mins.
Penalty against Stormers, quick tap by Willie, ball going towards the line, error, Stormers in posession, kick upfield, Cheetahs take it up, turned over, Stormers take it up, ball moved wide off the ruck and Bryan goes over in the corner for a try!
Joe goes for the conversion, draws it left. 28-3
Nice team try there by the Stompies! Can they get their fourth or is that hoping for too much?
Hoping for the first bonus point (try) of the year??
Cheetahs just making way too many errors this game. Some of them forced by what has been a very aggressive tackling display by the Stormers.
The break seems to have done the Cape players good and the Cheetahs bad.
A penalty sees the ball kicked into touch for a Stormers line out in the Cheetahs 22. Can it be??
Another line out now on the 5 meter line, last move of the match.
Knock on, time, Stormers take this one comfortably in which is their best winning margin so far this season. I think.
Yip, no 4 tries for the Stormpoppies but a good win never the less. Staat will just need to win or draw next week to go through to the playoffs.
Kolisi my man of the match. Showing what Meyer sees in him. Shifting into the no 2 spot behind Flo in the Bok pecking order.
Brussow good, but not nearly as good as Siya this match.
Ok fellas that’s me out. Ciao a tutti!
wow
that win exceeded my expectations
just can’t seem to get that bonus point, but a very impressive win none the less
I’m very happy
Thanks guys, have a safe weekend, Stormersboy out!
