After only one season at Ulster. He has signed a 3 year contract but the struggling club have agreed to let him go Good news for the Stormers as they literally don’t have a good loosehead Fuck me they have useless Brok Harris starting for them at 1 these days that’s how desperate things are. Brok is 38 or 39

I got the impression Malherbe twisted Kitsie into a pretzel last weekend. Face it Dave he is a neutral scrummager….the Bok scrum only really worked when Ox subbed on.

Stop speaking crap Moz they only faced off in one scrum on Saturday and the scrum never budged - not an inch - rock solid by Kitshoff and Malherbe Kitshoff is one of the best scrummaging looseheads in the game

I never talk shyte Dave, you should know that by now. Kitshoff got two penalties, one for the scrum where Malherbe twisted him into a pretzel:

Bullshit Moz it was not that scrum and the scrum penalties were all very suspect throughout that game including the ones against the Stormers But you are speaking shit re the Malherbe vs Kitshoff scrum - you clearly did not watch the game

I watched the game….Kitsie was yanked shortly after the scrum. Malherbe is very laid back, but this time he was motivated leaving Kitshoff laid out.

‘A disaster for Stephen Kitshoff there’ says the commentator as Frans pats Kitsie on the back. Check it out.

As I said Moz you are speaking shit. First of all there was no twisting at all, there was no dominance by Malherbe over Kitshoff. The penalty was awarded for standing up by the Ulster hooker Kitshoff was as firm as ever against the best tighthead in the game. The pressure from Malherbe had the Ulster hooker standing up Reality versus fiction as usual when it comes to your takes on rugby Moz

The pressure from Malherbe in that particular scrum, was to much for Kitshoff and the hooker… Frans had a very dominant hit, and did not allow Kitsie to get under him, resulting him pushing thru at a inward angle popping Kitsie and the Hooker…Frans is looking good….but that was the only Scrum where Frans got the upper hand….the rest scrums was quite equal…Kitshoff is having a off patch, but still a formidable Loosehead….he will get there again scrumming for the Stormers….In his defence, scrummaging against one of the best technical Tight heads in the World, is a massive task.

You are speaking shit - there is nothing between Malherbe and Kitshoff - no twist no forward movement. The only thing that happens is that the Ulster hooker goes up first followed by Kitshoff and Malherbe together The penalty was for standing up, the first player to go up is the hooker That is what happened and that’s a fact

And the Stormers scrum was in reverse….I’ll stick with the commentators on this incident. Kitshoff was subbed immediately, so apparently the replacement did better.

No it was not in reverse you are lying. It went straight up. Kitshoff got subbed as most props do at minute 55 it had fuck all to do with his scrumming. Malherbe was on as a sub for the Stormers before Kitshoff was subbed by Ulster. The loosehead replacement made absolutely no difference as there was nothing in the scrums all match The Stormers were never going to dominate the scrums with useless Brok Harris starting at loosehead
