Lets look at he team of the Stormers and summarize who were the poor players today - whose performances were average and who deserve the rocket for poor eprformance.
Pietersen
His goalkicking was pathetic and his line kicking worse. You do not miss kicking out a penalty kick - that says it all.
Habana
Showed flashes of very good play - deserves thoughy his place in the team.
De Jongh
Made a contribution to one attacking move by the Stormers. Handed over possession twice to the Blues and his defence was putrid. Defiitely a liability in the team
De Villiers
Brilliant performance
Aplon
One good move and tried his best - but his performance was average.
Van Aswegen
Solid performer - good ball distributor - solid in defence - good in all aspects of the game.
Duvenhage
Box kicks were atrocious and a guaranteed handover of possession. Under-par performance on the whole
Vermeulen
Very hard worker - not flashy - but defnitely had a good solid performance
Elstadt
Very hard worker - not flashy - but definitely had a good solid performance
Kolisi
Defence good - but showed nothing else. Effectively no ball carrying and ball handling skills could be classified as poor. On the balance - average performance.
Bekker
Good performance - all aspects of the game.
Steenkamp
Poor performance on average. Gave away costly penalty.
Malherbe
Very good scrummager - did well for his team
Fourie
Very good in loose play
Kitshoff
Very good scrummaging - did well for his team
Etzebeth
Not up to standard - evident that he needs more game time to get to the top
Cilliers
Poor scrumming - not up to standard
Jantjies
Does he ever do anytjing right in rugby? Came on and buggerred up repeatedly. Very poor.
