    @ grootblousmile:
    Yes this will be one worth watching, can the Stormers rely on kicks to win this one, i expect at least 3 Shark tries.

    I pick Jantjes to be the fall guy for the Stormers…..with the Sharks getting a 5 pointer. A resurgent John Smit up front and Bismarck champing at the bit. Lambie is going to be too tricky for the Stormer backline. Best matchup….Grant/Lambie the form flyhalves in South Africa. Stormers dangermen Vermeulen, Mossie. Sharks dangermen….the backrow and JPP. Relish seeing Kanko/Duanne matching up…..speed against strength.
