Leeus cutting the Stmpies open in the middle of the field and getting just short of the line....


Sacha showing some brilliance collecting his own high ball too

Try time for the lions...


Great take of the high ball by Davids, Frank Horn kept up, few offloads and its try time Leeus.

Plumpster the words soft can never be applied to the Mighty Stormers!

Reminds me of tbe unhinged Card calling the Boks soft. Too funny for words!

Defence lapse by Stormers allows a Lions try!

Look like another score for the Leeus through VD Berg chipping over the top and Mpheku and Henco chasing, with Henco ultimately scoring


Big pressure on the Stompies now

Baboon-ou, if you haven't noticed Cobus Reinach it's because . . . ummmm . . . he's not playing.

Morne van der Bergh is a competitor, wouldn’t be surprised to see him emerging as the Bok incumbent.
