And another penalty, quickly taken by the Canes, but some great defence by Stormers drives the Canes back to their own 22
Shadow hacks it ahead…
Then Pietersen runs, chips, gathers… try?
TMO
Bonus try Stormers, great individual work by Pieterson
Upstairs again, did he cross the line?
No try, game finishes on 39-26
Hands under the ball?
No try!
Stormers denied their bonus point… must say, was close.
Final Score: DHL Stormers 39 / 26 Hurricanes
doesn’t matter how big a player is, if you tackle him around his ankles….he goes down!!!
Belangrike wen vir die Stormers om mee te begin, maar sal jammer wees oor hul nie die bonuspunt gekry het nie.
Well glad I made that one, off to the Presser, then home to try to catch the end of the Lions/Cheetahs clash. THat should be a goodie. Enjoy it lads.
My Bru prediction was Stormers by 11… they won by 13… not too bad
