Come on Stormers...redeem yourselves...the weather in Cape Town is good for rugby, a little muggy and CLOUDY but there is not much chance of rain and the WIND is negligible.

 

Watch out Beeno...it looks like Cloudy is present but no Windpomp...lol...hahaha and Cloudy's favourite ref so it will be an uncontaminated result...

 

Malherbe and Smith both with tries and both converted...looks like a good game...a revived Stormers side...a good start.

 Cloudy for one thing we were playing Kolisi and not Burger. Also they have decided to attack more.The idea SA sides cant play attacking rugby is patent nonsense.
Can Stormers play hard for 80 minutes?

Another 5 points by Damian...Saffex will be happy...bring it on Stormers...the Highlanders under pressure...Coleman misses to the left.

 

Then Renata adds a try which is converted...a really good game of rugby...I love it.

Dr Moz I hope is noticing the huge difference in work rate between malherbe and Jannie.
lowlanders are nmaking all the tackles JW so we shall see who is effected most.
Not bad but we should be a lot further ahead.
Alistair bring on DEON early oak.

 One sided so far,  Highlanders just need to keep pushing it and get out of their half. Need to get the territory and possession leveled out. Keep the tempo up and don't allow stupid mistakes. Come on Highlanders

I am liking the changes to the Stormers playing style. Gert Smal has talked about going back to the traditional running rugby that Western Province have been renowned, not the defensive strangle and Bulls attack that has been the style for the last 4 years.

 I would prefer a mean boil Cloudy. Stormers off loading better and not always going to ground. Better passing and less kicking away possession.
Great try by Kebble!!!!Too much Mighty Stormers power.Sharkbok do you think the Sharks can take the Stormers if they play like this. Probably nnot sharkbok. Ou rootwit might well end the season as he does most seasons under a mountain of EGG 
Oops a yellow Bad news. Stormers need to bring on some fresh legs. Why take off Burger though he is still going great guns. Alistair you are clueless.

The Highlanders are high-lighting what is wrong with our psyche...Stormers started well but the final stages of high risk rugby relies on mind set and strength of mind which we lack...ability is all over in SA but a winners mentality is slightly lacking...when we can we master this like NZ. When we panick under pressure we make stupid mistakes...keep calm guys and play your natural game...I'm convinced it's all in the mind.

 

The "landers are bottom of NZ and playing away with a SA ref but one that has integrity...Craig never "Gippos" a game...please persevere and win this.

 That Highlanders prop dropped low just below the engagement and suckered Kebble into giving the penalty. A bit underhanded and not really in good spirit

Well done Stormers. 4 point bonus try win, which is positive given the Stormers never get 4 tries in a single game. Pity to not get the try in the end and prevent the Highlanders from getting a 2nd point for the game. Highlanders leave SA with 6 points, not very good by SA.
