Bloody Stormers

How on earth can you dictate terms like that and lose the game. Talk about frustrating to watch. Stupid errors conceding penalties and then basics like not finding touch when taking a penatly kick - not good enough.

The better side lost, but they had themselves to blame. Great game from Jean who was outstanding.....in that form he deserves to be retained for the Boks. Duvenhage really frustrates me, why the hell is Groom out of th match 22, he is their best 9.

Joe had a good break, Habana and Aplon were good, but for being owned by Ranger twice. de Jongh but for the good angle he ran, was poor, missing tackles and conceding possession with ball in hand. v/Aswegen is at best solid.

The Stormers props once again dominated, except when Cilliers came on. Fourie had a good game as did Bekker. Steenkamp was ok and Etzebeth needed to get through 40min. The Stormers loosetrio were huge......Kolisi, Elstadt and Vermeulen had great confrontational games.

That was a game the Stormers threw away and one they will regret losing come end of the comp.

JDV was huge, but that form hasnt been there all year, good to see the old dogs still got it, that was his best perforamnce all year IMO.

joe pieterson was the worst player easy, missed goal kicks is one thing, but not findiong touch on two occassions and some useless up and unders and tactical kicking.

duvenage had a good game too, was the best tactical kicker on ground.

stormers loose trio was good, but steven luatua was better, every run he took and tackle he made ended up giving his team momentum, freaking huge. will be shocking if he dosent make the All Blacks this year, easily the form blinside flanker with lappies.

blues back looked meancing, but habanas workrate was outstanding, the stormers wouldnt be half the team they are without him.

im loving weepus control at the base for the ruck (also loved him showing vermeulen whose boss). hes got to be starting for the All Blacks, were gonna need that level of control against the likes of those tricky french.

congrats blues on a very good game, wayward kicking and poor poor discipline saw u get over the line and possibly the stormers out of finals contention.

Yep Sas Luatua is a class act, he must start for the AB's.

Disagree, Duvenhage was poor. Yes, its the first game Jean has shown he still has it.

Best side lost that game, was very frustrating to watch

The best sides very often lose against the kiwis for reason we all know. Were all those penalties legit etc? 

Why Allistair doesnt start Allende is a mystery. Yes a brief article I saw also said Duvenage was poor.

Groom is far more dynamic. Van Der Heever will also be back at least for the home games if not earlier. He should also start. Tiaan and Grant back and bingo we are ready to rock.

The only reason the Stormers lost, is because they had themselves to blame......conceding penalties and getting the basics wrong. You can't afford to lose touch twice on a penalty at this level.

Its too late for the Stormers to rock, by throwing away that game, their challenge is for all intenses done.

a star ridden team with poor coaching will always lose.....
