Will be dangerous to play on that field if it does not drain sufficiently before the match.
 
Good to see the Breezers managed to bag their ref for the encounter .......
 
He has been playing great rugby. Would be a bummer for him if those ligaments are torn.

Stormers not short on quality replacements though. Kolisi and Carr more than capable.

I know he hit him. That much was clear, but who says Vermeulen didn't also strike him before that? Can't see that.

Saw some shoving then the two punches. Bugger took a calculated risk expecting 10 minutes for playing enforcer on Duane (Judging by the reaction from the captain it was probably preplanned.). Should have brushed up on the law first.

Fully deserved.

Mephisto, the ref missed the Blues tapping the ball down right on their try line. Hardly proof of bias against the Blues.

Eish. Such a shame for Ryno. Luckily for the Stormers they have lots of cover in the loose.

Yeah, perhaps. Triggs is a hillbilly anyway. And Vermeulen isn't really known for playing dirty.

Look. No question the card has killed the contest but until the rules are amended, it was the correct decision.

Duane's incredible physical bordering on dirty. I've watched him as closely as tv will allow and he is often bullying players off the ball. Discreetly of course.
 
Not much to be honest.

Blues could still sneak this in the last 10min if Stormers aren't careful.
