Despite your comments I give the Storners a 50:50 chance of beating the Chiefs.  In their game against the Crusaders - the Crusaders kicks at goal were poor - otherwise they would have won the game with ease.  The Chiefs Tight 5 was poor against the Crusaders, so they will suffer against the Stormers.
Cruden will be hard done by when De Allende gets at him.  
Malherbe is apparently carrying an injury niggle and I think he may take the field only if absolutely necessary.
The Waratahs looks way to strong for the Brumbies and I expect a disaster for the latter team.

@mikey,

"Despite your comments I give the Storners a 50:50 chance of beating the Chiefs."
and who says ur not an optimist???

stormers are going to lose to the 2014 spXV champions. how much depends on the chiefs.
if the chiefs play well, it will be a cricket score,
if the chiefs play poorly, it will be a comfortable win to the chiefs,
 if the stormers play the game of their lives and the chiefs play their worst game ever in super rugby history, the chiefs will just win,

i give the stormers a 0.000000000000000000000000000001% chance, :oP

You fell for the bait - but last week the NZ supporters also predict a huge win by the Crusaders and they got rescued by the ref ultimately.   
I do think if both sides play well - the outcome could be closer than you think.   Make De Allende A BANKER in your fantasy selections - if he runs at Cruden - ge will just run over him - no problem for the Stormers .
