That was due to fires in the New Pass afaik

No the wind blew a lorries trailer off the high bridge just outside the tunnel on Paarl side. Also blew a caravan from a bakkie off the bridge.

This has been talked of for years. Before the Boks pushed the envelope with forward replacements. Heard Wayne Smith talk years ago about limiting subs and theory behind it. Persecuted Saffer Complex will of course have a field day should any changes re sult. :lol: Because that would never ever happ...

Can they hold on into the wind?

The likely prize of Leinster away awaits!

Haven't watch much. Fourie is a big loss. Let's see if the Stormers can fight this out.

Winter strikes Cape Town. Expect high winds and fast rugby.

The rugby landscape have changed a lot in South Africa. Politics have no influence in it. Thanks to Rassie. He shoukd start a Rugby Party with Kolisi. How has Rassie single-handedly stopped political interference in Sa rugby? What Was happening before Rassie stopped it? His impact reached NZ.

So another substitute winner's medal to add to his collection?

What a player to have on the bench.

He is far from finish with medals.

He did, he's a terrific player, nobody's fault but we just didn't get to see enough of him

Was hoping he come to the Stormers. Obvious Nienaber played a massive role.

Really looking forward to the Stormers v LaR match. Probably the tie of the round. Some other tasty matches too in Quins v Glasgow, Exeter v Bath and Northampton v Munster. Leinster v Leicester too but I'm biased Thats different between Soup and NH. Soup is lower then URC at the moment, then you ge...

The Stormers will have to play out of their skins to beat that LaR team. It spell danger all over the park. If we play like last week against Ulster they'll get one moerse hiding. We need Libbok, Willemse & Gelant to fire. I like our loose forward combination. BJD and Roos is in good form. I'd like ...

Its done. Now for the next one. Three in a row is a perfect goal.

Looks like an all-French final to me. La Rochelle v Toulouse will be a belter. Leinster will be the team to beat. Just maybe the Stormers will do them a favor this weekend. Unless Toulouse have gone backwards since Jan, they're stlll favourites. If Leinster manage to overcome our bogey side or Stor...

He's always been good for South Africa. He went to Bordeaux a few years back but only lasted 2 years. Maybe he prefers to be in Cape Town. Kitshoff Mrs is local, must be hard for her in Ireland.

He slot in well with Cardiff. Tom Botha also look like good for them. The Cheetah lot also slot in with the Ospreys.

OupaStruisbaai

He’s clearly not the best LHP in the Boks. I never claim he is the best LH in world rugby or for the Springboks, mind you both packs of the Boks are the best in scrumming. For the Stormers he is much more then just a LH. South Africans definitely talk a good scrum. I remember this one - all the Bok...

Leinster knock out all the aspirant Bulls new Boks. KLA was by far the best.

As an Ireland fan, I'd absolutely LOVE to lose a WC final

Honestly, how "new look" will this SA side be?

Don't expect no new players. Will be the same as the WC final.

He’s a lump. World’s best, my arse. He’s not the best LHP in the Boks. He’s a fat, slow, ginger cnut, who is good (not great) at scrum time, with a hot mrs. That’s it. You embarrass yourself every time you spout this bullshit. Kitshoff is looking well past his best but, at his best, he was clearly ...

Your TH is always the most important position in rugby. Fat Frans appear and everything change from there. Kitshoff is the Stormers missing link.
