Without sounding catty, I'm quite pleased to see the Bulls being taken down a peg or two. Over the last two years we've had to listen to how wonderful they are and how they have dominated the local rugby scene, conveniently ignoring a global pandemic and the sad state of the Currie Cup.

Roos continues to look like the real deal. Let's hope he keeps improving and stays injury free until it's Bok selection time. I'm a huge Thor fan, but I'm starting to think that perhaps it's time to look elsewhere for the Bok 8 jersey, he seems to be dropping off the pace quite a bit.

Bulls have 1 game plan, bosh it up with the huge forwards, after that they have nothing. It isn't bad seeing them not winning.


Roos is the future.....................................what a player. How he never featured at the $harks is a mystery.

After winning that, anything is possible.

One thing I found very irritating in the $hark$ game are the way their players throw ref tantrums when the call is against them specially Jayden Hendricks. Look like the Premier League players.

Last weekend was not easy....no game is easy in the URC. That is why it is crucial to have depth.

But st least the decision making for Stormers will rest on one player

I hope Tito improves his game this week. He was shocking last week tbh. We cannot accept that standard from our flyhalves

$hark$ has been our bitches for a very long time. The had to poach our Springbokke to be competitive. Ox already predicted they will dominate our scrum. They bagged already this match. Stormers can just aswell give them the 5 points.

Let's be honest. He changed your fortunes up north. He was sensational. That's the difference between winning and losing.

Oh cry me a river. The only thing that makes sense in your rambling is that the Sharks are your bitches...

Let's just focus on how long it will take to get Gelant onto the pitch

Best we can hope for is to sell him to the highest bidder and use the money to pay the remaining players.

We are in dire straits. Yes we beat the Bulls for fun, but that was just a flash in the pan, not to be repeated.

I'm not even considering a sig or flounce bet.

Listen, he is a big saaks fan, just sad that he's not willing to put his money where his mouth is. Chances of a Stormers victory is close to zero. They have the players, the coaches and the money and still he's afraid of the Stormers. I guess decades of living in our shadow has damaged him beyond repair.
