Teen verloop van die spel…
Puma,
Thanks for the kind words. I think the plot thickens for the Stormers/Bulls clash. The difference between last week and this week is the STORMERS TIGHT FIVE ARE FRONTING UP, which has their loosies and backs on the front foot.
I have noticed something for the first time now. The Stormers are using Francois Louw as a fetcher from 7, while Schalla is playing the more classic blindsider ballcarrying game from 6.
TRY STORMERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Grant kicks it…
Stormers 30 – 14
Try Blues…

Blues throwing it away now…
272 – Bluebeard, that is the way the kiwis play it. The 7 does the fetching. Burger is a powerful ball carrier.
Deysel in the Sharks also does a lot of fetching the of course so does Botes.
Think the game against the Stormers and Bulls game going to be a cracker or maybe a very tight game. Hope a game like we watching now.

Blues must keep baal in hand if they want to stand a chance…
