The Stormers are the lowest “points for” team in the competition at this point, with 180 posted from nine outings: that is an average of exactly 20 points per game (poor for this often high-scoring tournament) and only they have not yet gone beyond the 200-mark.


SuperSport pundit and most-capped Springbok Victor Matfield also made the point, post-match on Saturday, that if the Stormers were rattled by the Brumbies’ speed off the line, they might find the Bulls even more of a handful in that department.

Fleck needs to go whether it's his fault or not.

The poses they have to strike for these promotional photos are so ridiculous.

Talk about the Stormers, what's left of the SA Conference games does not augur well for the rest...it could well go to the Argentinian side.

Bulls home games

Tahs,Saders,Lions

Bulls away games

Rebels,Brumbies,Blues,Landers

 

Lions home games

Landers,Stormers,Canes,

Lions away games

Saders,Sharks,Bulls

 

Sharks home games

Lions,Canes,

Sharks away games

Tahs,Saders,Jags,Stormers

 

Stormers home games

Bulls,Saders,Landers,Sun Wolves,Sharks

Stormers away games

Jags

 

Jaguares home games

Brumbies,Stormers,Sun Wolves

Jaguares away games

Canes,Tahs,Reds.


Prediction that Jaguares will take all their home games and at least 2 of their away games...not a bad call...I must say that I have no confidence in the Bulls and certainly not the rest of SA franchises.

Fleck hid behind an assortment of excuses over the last few seasons ... one of which was that he wasn't worried about the thrashings his team received at the hands of the Kiwis ... he referred to them as important learning curbs and that the team would be better for it.

We all know how that worked out.

BeanDip was an avid fan of this fool ... but then again, he rates De Allende as our best 12.

They should never have appointed Fleck. To think he was preferred over Mitchel.

Why is Fleck still there?

The Stormers have a loser at 6 ... a loser as captain ... and a loser as head coach.

Of course they would fail ... again.

Gooooooooooooooo Bulls!!!!!!!

Fleck is not the problem. The fools who put him there are...the same fools who is pushing Smal out and promoting Snôrre and Ttreu to take over. All our good players are leaving. Next year Boland and the Kings will beat us easily. What a fook up!... Plesse pardon the profanity, but mess, desaster or travesty just don't work here, and I don't have a big enough vocabulary to describe this properly.

I think Draad is more or less correct...the under performing coaches in SA, like Fleckie are the by-product of the whole bang shoot system...there are no die-hard tough and committed administrators, little vision and no accountability...it's just cover up jobs for friends sort of SA thing. Be nice, give the candidates a chance...a miss and hit attitude...that's why our franchises are so unpredictable...there's huge talent in all our players but they are running around like "lost sheep"with little direction at least that's the way I reckon.

Wee cc I have said Fleck must go long time back. Try not to be too dumb oak. 

Of course Allende remains the best 12 in the country. 

Who realistically is better. 

Thought Jantjes had a good game at 12 but need to see more. 

Janse van Rensburg was looking very good before he left but I have not seen him since his departure. 

Esterhuizen is not as good as Allende. 

Let's hear from the oaks who is better than Allende.

As for that nutjob sharkbokkie - there was nothing sissy about the Stormers loss! There was a lack of attacking skills. Shadktwit is too dumb to see the difference. Certainly the Stormers never surrendered like the gutless sharks did against the Jags. LOL!!!

Beenz, nothing wrong with the attacking skills....it was the lapses on defence that kept them in the game. If it wasn't for the soft tries we let through, we would have put 50 on them. We had them on the ropes and then gave away a silly try yet again. We choked in the end, but the Brumbies put in a massive defensive effort...and were lucky not to be carded more....but that will be all forgotten when we beat the Saders in 2 weeks time.

Hope we won't have to do it without Eben.
