This is quite a nice summary ex Supersport


Allow me to admit I do have a funny feeling that the Stormers will win this game, but also allow me to admit that I wouldn’t have the guts to stake my house on it or tip them as the winner given that the Hurricanes pack has been really good recently. 

That means they should have enough ball to trouble a Stormers defensive system that looks less impregnable than it once was. Eight tries in the last two games against the Stormers by Kiwi teams does not make good reading for a team that used to pride itself on defence

For the Stormers to win, and keep the likes of Julian Savea quiet, they are going to have to emphatically win the forward battle and then cut down on the error rate from last week. Their field kicking game also needs to be more accurate than it has been. There’s a lot to work on, but still, there’s just a feeling, perhaps based on the theory that no team in Super Rugby just keeps on winning and the Hurricanes may be due for an off-night.


Unfortunately the pap wee Kolisi is in before Rhodes!!! Neither has Coetzee addressed the micro light backs problem. So the forwards will have to reallly get well on top for the Stormers to win. It will be interesting to see how Schalk goes.


All all so annoying!

Wehe . . . the Stompie Blowhards were very vocal and full of themselves after the first few rounds but they're not beating their chests quite as hard now that the Hapless Stompies have been exposed an overrated bunch of mid-table plodders!

LMAO!

Go Canes!

The Stormers with their wee little backs will once again get their arses kicked thanks to useless Coetzee never learning a lesson.

 

Playing average Carizza ahead of Kleyn is also a joke

Go Canes says it all rooitwit you closet kiwi supporter. No turning back noiw for you.
Beeno has forever unmasked this turnocat! Well done!! 
Beeno will of course be supporting the Sharks against the hapless old crusties like a true South African rugby fan.
I see the old crusts have strenghened their side by putting wee mcaaaaw on the bench and Dan is on hs way back to nz re birth of second child.
Main problem for Sharks is to keep 15 on park as yellows are the kiwis main weapon this year it would seem. Crusties are also specialising also in illegal srumming but got nicely pinged last week. Hope ref continues that good work

"Forever unmasked"?

LMAO!

When has it ever been a secret, you painfully stupid little man?

Listen chump, apart from the fact that the ill-conceived current format puts such a premium on winning the local conference and almost forces supporters (vaguely intelligent supporters anyway) to hope for their main local threats to get beaten, I have  always rated the Hapless Stompies as my least favourite team out of all 15 teams in the competition and I have said this many times over the last 10 years that you and I have co-existed on message boards.

Seriously now, Baboon-ou, is it because you're too stupid to understand what other people are saying or is it because you have the memory of a subnormal goldfish?

I must have listed my S15 order of team preference 10 times or more but here we go again . . .

1. Sharks

(Daylight)

2. Lions

(More daylight)

3. Chiefs
4. Cheetahs
5. Bulls
6. Blues
7. Hurricanes
8. Force
9. Reds
10. Highlanders
11. Crusaders
12. Rebels
13. Waratahs
14. Brumbies

(Lots more daylight)

(Even more daylight)

15. The Hapless Stompies

That's never been a secret, stupidissimo.

Just a note for the sad and lifeless pedants on the board who hoard other people's posts for 8 years and longer in the hope that they eventually spot some kind of inconsistency or change of opinion, my S15 order of team preferences may have changed slightly over the last 10 years but never the top 2 or the bottom 1.

 Beeno 
I will be quite frank about the situation.  The Hurricanes struggled up front against the strongish Lions forwards and against the very average Bulls.   Their Tight 5 can at best be rated as average.
However, that is where the advantage of the Stormers ends.   Their loosies will hold their own.   It is their backline which is sub-par other than Van Wyk and De Allende.Their weaknesses are most profound in the following positions:-
*   At flyhalf - Catrakilis was pathetic last week.*   At 13 -  De Jongh played a major role in losing the match*   At 11 -  Leyds is a Vodacom C up player - nothing more.
Kolbe himself is not a strong defender - he is physically too small for the full back position.   You mentioned the tries scored against the Stormers - look no further than the four midgets mentioned above.
To my mind even if the Hurricanes gets 30% good balls - they will still run away with the match.   That is why I am so bloody mad at the village idiot the Stormers has as a coach.

We haven't hear much chest-beating about De Allende lately he was ranked higher than SBW...  If De Allende is as good as some say he should be able to do some damage with the little blokes running off him. We will see.

de Allende will always be a threat as he is freakishly strong....has enough skill to rely on a bit of subtlety but strength is his strength......as must for the Boks.....but Meyer is too stupid to invest.....gave him a sniff and then discarded him......Meyer is both useless and clueless.

I am sick of seeing Carizza on the field, he is a non-entity and I'm convinced he's just posing a professional rugby player for the money.

Exactly......but Coetzee is too stupid to realise that he has three gems in Etzebeth, Botha and Kleyn

 rooi ass if we took a poll I am sure the vast majority if not all posters here (Except you) would always be supporting SA  sides against the nz counterparts. You are a hapless turncoat rooitwit. Thanks for providing that list of yours showing the very shameful extent of your turncoat sympathies! 
Ou rooi ass  is also a very feeble sharks supporter. When his side is getting robbed blind by the ref he weakly submits - even a sharks player getting dumped on his head by a spear tackle with only a penalty being awarded fails to illicit any protest from this limp wristed" supporter". 
I have to wonder if Coetzee is subject to imposed quota selections. Nobody can be this dumb.
