Cool Plum
Mistake from the kickoff and the Stormers are under the gun straight away.
That was a quick change of fortune
Roos must be excited to be in a green jersey.
Stormers now camped on the Zebre line.
Roos must be excited to be in a green jersey.
Hehe.
Stormers maul over. Might be a long night for Zebre. Zulu misses, 5-0 S.
Arrived just on time for the first try
Those puke green jerseys are fugly though. I don't get why, it's not traditional Cape/WP/Stormers colours.
You have to feel for the guys in the Zebre scrum
Roos with a good little break from the back. What's with the ridiculously small in goal areas in Europe/UK?
Zulu throws an intercept as the Stormers rumble into the 22. No harm except they lost the chance to apply more pressure.
Weak surrender of possession Stormers and Zebre runs it all the way into the 22.
Is it just me or is the quality of the games really poor at the moment
Van Heerden with a good lineout steal.
I see Sacha is handing out a lot of orders.
...wonder if there are plans for him to be Bok skipper
Evan Roos through the gap like a 12. Hey, Plum?
Probably originally a soccer stadium
Roos doing a lot of 12 looking things
It's not been great, KC.
I swear I didn't see what I didn't see what you posted above Pakie hava
That's possible Moz. Just sometimes look like there's plenty of space still to use but they don't. Probably have to leave some to avoid crashes into the barriers.
Lol Sacha took too much time for that droppie
I swear I didn't see what I didn't see what you posted above Pakie hava
More for Dave's benefit anyway :)
Soccer goal!
I really don't like Galant.
I mean, the guy can't understand when he is supposed to secure the ball.
Why is Gelant in the team. He was great 5 years ago but ever since he returned back from France he has been atrocious. Throw dumb intercepted pass with all the time in the world. He is so kak
Flashy and erratic. 7-5 Z
Gelant does a Gelant up.
It's as I said here once before, he epitomises everything bad about the Stompies
Zeb player's head slammed into the pitch a bit there.
I hate the mind set of some of these players and you see it a lot in the sharks team. Every player feels entitled and show their arrogance when they think they are better than the opposition. They think these guys are walk overs and they don't need play with their team mates or play in a pattern that can unlock. Every player wants to heat the man first and then panics when they get caught
Galant, by the way, is another of Dave's "Boks" haha
Zeb's got the wind up their sails a bit now, even mauling the Stormers down the field.
For all Roos' failings, it's hard to fault his attitude. The guy just always wants to hurt somebody.
Moz, what time is there...must be early hours already?
Willemse more with the tractoring feet than the dancing feet so far.
Crock roll there by Zebs. Ref missed it despite being 3m away
2.19 in the afternoon…..a wet rainy day, just reading newspapers, eating and watching rugby. Sometimes it beats all the exercise
Game has a weird feel to it, don't know if it's the camera angles or the ugly jerseys. Put them in some WP white and blue stripes and I may feel more at home.
"Willemse more with the tractoring feet than the dancing feet so far."
DDA is has been spending time with him...teaching him "invisible arts"
Man I hope de Villiers turns out to be the real deal, we need a fetcher.
Zulu kicks too deep, mark taken, lots of territory lost.
"2.19 in the afternoon…..a wet rainy day, just reading newspapers, eating and watching rugby. Sometimes it beats all the exercise"
On my word...brain fart from me. I was adding on 6 hours haha
DDA is has been spending time with him...teaching him "invisible arts"
"Helping" him, yes. Adding the pass to his arsenal.
Fucking Gelant, nice backline shape and he wants to step instead of getting it to 5 players around. Gets stripped and penalty.
Can they please sub him
Jeez it's a messy affair. I was expecting more from the Stormers given their results so far.
If Gelant leaves Willemse goes fullback, which will make Dave grumpy.
If Rhonda was on here she’d be accusing you of being dumb Plumb….hey that has a nice ring to it.
Ref strip sy moer vir die Taljaners en Stormers get a penalty.
Naand manne.
Good low tackling by Zeb.
Howzit Draad
Howzit Draad. Verlang jy nie ook na 'n proper Stormers of WP truitjie nie? Die groen kak werk nie vir my nie.
Stormers over but might be held up. How the hell did they not get that down? Dude just fell down and didn't even try to wiggle it past the legs to the floor.
Groete Draad.
No worries Moz, I even fluffed the name for the Shark's match thread earlier.
And Sacha scores.
Zulu scores after his little kick went bouncy bouncy and Zeb couldn't secure it. Okay Zeb made it go bouncy bouncy form the tap back, whatever.
Sacha looks a little more muscular….probably good if true.
Ungerer is a lively little shit.
Fantastic Sacha offload…what a talent
Ja Pakie, that green looks k@k...and I'm colorblind...
Nice little breakout by Zulu. Should perhaps have fed his support while they had momentum before the tackle broke it.
The Zulu with a little break to put Zebs on the back foot into the half.
But why on earth is fighting a lost cause in the ruck afterwards!?
Ah, didn't know Draad. Ugly lime puke green as well. Anyway, I'm talking shit about jerseys because the game is kinda boring me.
HT Stormers 12 -7
There's only one green and that's Bok green :-)
I dunno if you guys get the SA adds in your streams but there was a Supersport add with Themba Bavuma on just now, and the guy really has the personality of a facecloth hahaha
On another note, they're showing the Bulls' highlights at half time...De Klerk is really bloody quick. He looks quicker than Kolbe and Arendse, perhaps rivalling Williams. And he's a baller. He's looking really good.
One thing I notice about Sacha is that he doesn't really create structure around him. Very individual. Outside of the Bulls during the moments when Willie/Moodie/Bastian combined for some nice tries, the SA sides have looked pretty disjointed.
Yeah De Klerk is a little dynamo and he accelerates onto the ball as well - think it's very evident during the first try as he accelerates onto the Willie pass.
Okay let's see if this lime green turd of a game can liven up a bit.
Lol the guys calming Roos down there. Mr perma-beast mode
Zeb thinking they'll concede some early points by throwing passes to nowhere in their own 22. They survived it for the moment.
Roos must be thinking about Rassie all the time.
And no Falant knocks one.
I don't think he has the attention span it takes to watch the ball into his hands...those 700ms are a bridge too far
Gelant knocks as the Stormers go wide.
Some more mauling and now a review, zzz.
The suits have finished their conference and decided no try was scored.
Stormers mauling themselves away from the line. Another conference. This is like watching lime green paint dry.
If the Italians fought this hard in WW2 we'd be speaking German right now. Heroic stuff by the Pizza Boys.
But they're on a warning.
Zulu scores
Zulu does it again, kid is having a purple patch year.
Maul fails again but Zulu gets over at first receiver from the ruck.
I would be in favor of being allowed to take down the maul….what a waste of time just give it to Sacha.
If the Italians fought this hard in WW2 we'd be speaking German right now.
lol

lol
Individual player, but he makes points, huh Paks?
Ja he does.
Actually, they speak some version of German in northern Italy and can't cook pasta for shit
Gelant with a 1m touch finder.
Ali vermaak, actually playing the best rugby if his life
It's that fascist pasta Blobbie is so afraid of.
Anyone been to Italy, love that place
Zeb's handling lets them down as the space opens.
Spent a lot of time in Milan
Nope, never been.
Nice defence by the Stompies there
Sacha casually clearing 50m off the penalty
Commentators finding the game fascinating. They sound Irish so we'll blame the lack of World Cup semi final and final exposure.
Stompies gaining lots of momentum now. Everything going their way.
Gonna be a tough rest of the game for Zebre
...as Zulu slices through and launches a running chip off of his left foot.
Zulu again does it all himself. You barely need the other backs. Kick almost worked for Ungerer.
LOL Pakie
We have to find a way to build our game around Sacha, for starters the inside center needs to be faster than a tractor in donkey low.
More warnings for the Mafia boss
Damn there's some bass thumping going on in the background there. I thought for a second it was something local over here.

Yeah whoever's around him is going to have to be switched on and zippy.
Agreed Moz, we've never had a tip of the spear like this like him.
Zulu boy make Gelant look like a legend
And as we say that...Sacha puts Galant in
Nice little play by the Stormers, Zulu with a fine pass to Gelant who for once doesn't drop it.
See Plum Gelant is brilliant
What's even the score, I haven't paid attention. 24-7.
Gelant might be promoted to Dave's world beating Bok C side now.
He's defos a Bok, Moz.
I mean, he caught ball
We're such bitches, but it is funny though haha
Zeb sick of waiting for Gelant to throw them another bone so they go for posts to get some gawd dayum points on the board.
I'd yank Sacha now though.
He's had a good night and the game's in the bag. Nothing more to prove. Job done.
Willemse dancing into a jackal, penalty Zeb.
Zebre 9 wants to be Sacha...that may have been the most dangerous pass I've ever seen
Willemse has had a very quiet night….perhaps he is better at 15 with space to deploy.
Jeez, Zeb is like the Sharks without the scrum.
Yeah, I don't like him at 12 either. He's a racehorse, not a utility donkey
13-24 as Zeb slots another penalty. They're making a covert comeback in threes.
Based on today’s evidence the Willemse/Julius combination looks less likely
LOL, Zebre 19 makesd a great run and then the scrummie passes all that gain away backwards to no one.
For fuck sake Gelant, again, just throws the ball away. What a cunt
Gelant gives Zeb another sniff, lol.
crazy pass by Gelant
Sacha again the one coming across in cover to clean up Gelant's mess. He truly is a one man show.
The game has now moved from fascinating to bizarre for the commentators.
Watching the games this season, JJ has done zero to warrant any hype whatsoever.
The only reason that Hooker is on the wing at the Sharks is because JJ is too slow to be there.
I still think AE/Hooker is the way for the Sharks to go
I'm sukkeling with the kakkest of streams & whenever I do get a feed there's some stoppage in play.
You're not missing much Blobbie.
Gelant takes down Bergie Polony in a good tackle.
No Worries, Blo...all you need to know is that Sacha beat Zebre.
...and Galant had three small strokes during the game. They tended to happen when he had the ball in his hands.
I doubt this match by Roos is going to impress Lucky. He looks like he is trying to be Wiese, but doesn’t have the power. He needs to find his own strengths.
Agreed on AE/Hooker
Zeb is really kak.
Indeed, Moz.
Its like he thinks he has to channel his aggression into smash. He be better off picking his moments and making bigger impacts.
He's got the right attitude but the wrong approach.
Fuck fuck gelant
Effortless Sacha 50/22
Willemse with another tractor.
Galant is truly aweful. How does he keep getting away with these performances?
Roos gets MOM.
Risky play by Zebra, Nel interception as they try to play from their 5 meter. Under the sticks
Incredible Roos did more than Sacha
Nel intercepts and toddles over.
Awe...that's just cruel.
Stompies with an intercept try to finish.
31-13
Well boys, there were only two things entertaining about this game:
Thanks for the laughs, back to the weekly grammar lessons and then more ruggas next weekend.
This is IRB messing with Rassie's head. They keep giving Roos MOTM awards to make Rassie doubt himself
Back to the F1 Sprint race I have on record….Sacha could probably win that as well. Cheers all!
Haha thanks guys.
De Klerk, Wilco and Sacha win this weekend for me.
Moodie gets an honourable mention.
Plum
Add De Wet to those three. He should be in the Springbok squad playing top match for the Bulls - has ball sense and pace as well.
