Holy shit. Dixon's pass almost intercepted, then Dan Dup just missiles the offload into Gelant from 30cm away. I guess conditions aren't good, eh?

Nicely done Sacha to slot a 3 from halfway and provide some momentum into the half.


Lets hope for a better second half


10-7

Looking at these games I’m trying to imagine a Bok pack without Etzebeth or Snyman and with a reduced Ox. It’s not reassuring.

Nice maul by the Stompies and they draw a penalty!


they set up a lineout in Connacht's 22 now


slick move as Roos offloads to AHV...and MCHUNU somehow scores.


Nice!!!
