Re: Chasing the Sun 2

3rd episode - About taking the scrum in the boks 22 after Willemse's clean catch. It was well thought through beforehand as they wanted to spend the French forwards energy by calling them all the way to the 22 for the scrum. Human said this: "It's only a risk if you haven't worked hard enough".

Re: 2023/2024 European Champions Cup

Stormers centres looked more beefed up than the Bulls pair last weekend. They probably haven't played together a lot but against the current champion side defense will count in midfield. Good to see Frans Malherbe on the bench aswell. Bulls look better this week aswell Moodie/de Klerk/Arendse.
