Stormers kick off at 2pm. What are the predictions?

Our guys have no clue how to exit the 22.

In fairness he did get a skiddy yorker from Hershelle.

Super try Stomps.

A little reckless by the Stomps. They should respect the ball a bit.

Junkies is going to get into trouble, he seems to be chirping the ref.

Scarra: " one of the best throwers that you can ge"
Fuck me.

He is terrible.

He's a fat mess. Time for him to move on.

Cardiff pack have our number.

Statistically Stormers have the worst scrum in the comp

We need to play wide. Jantjies and the stupid driving from lineouts make us struggle.

The $hark$ still are our bitches

like that Sards.

Libbok , Willemse and Gelant rules.

I was just going to say what a dull and boring game.

And then BOOM!

Libbok acting like a puss and not dotting down immediately. Why would you do that?

Yes, doing a Fleckie. His and 5 Bars distribution is top drawer.

Roos a little overeager there.

Was dumb going for a pick and drive against 3 opposition players only to get held up.

Is it just me or has Roos become a little quiet over the last few games?

Chippie's family member isn't much of a hooker is he?

He’s still as “busy” as ever I think, just less and less effective I think. He is a little evereager and gets himself isolated so many times or he loses the ball in contact.

For me, Louw has now overtaken him as the best domestic 8.

Elrigh is better by a large margin. He is the same type of player as Vermeulen

Scrum look better with Fouche.

This heat must be hard on the Welsh

Great break and score by Roos.

Can't believe the $hark$ lost to this rabble

Finally the damn wall breaks.

But our set pieces are a massive concern. Scrums and lineouts were abysmal today.

Glad were able to rack up this score regardless.

A good win in a poor game.

Yeah!

I saw his tackle stats somewhere (Louw's) and were a bit surprised at how low they were. He's a beast of a carrier but I haven't seen much of him as a jackaller. Vermeulen is pre-eminent in this facet. I still think Elrigh is a blindside flanker. He's looked great recently but he is playing against URC sides devoid of internationals. Once he faces Dombrandt, Dan du Preez, Jasper etc I'll be more convinced. Great talent though.

Well done Saffer teams. Cleansweep

3 SA teams in the top half of the log now.

Good to see, but the Stormers and Sharks still have a lot of work to do. Neither look like championship teams as of yet.

Meihuizen is a big loss for our depth in lock. Ernst and Dixon is flankers

Stormers missing Wiese right now.

Next weekend a big test for the $hark$ and Stormers, against EdinBokke & Ulster.

Ja, we have no grunt in the engine room at the moment.

Need Moerat back badly. We’ve lost a lot of our best tall timber in quick succession; Etzebeth, Moerat, Meihuizen, Schickerling, Van Zyl…and I’m sure I’m forgetting a couple more. We need some mongrel in the pack again to steady the scrum, and some proper Lineout operators.

If we can’t fix our set pieces in the next 2-3 weeks we are toast.
