Ruan Pienaar needs to pull his finger out of his ass now - he was very disappointing in the first game - his missed tackles (which directly caused a try against us), poor boot and piss poor tactical kicking could easily have lost us the game. In fact it was obvious that he resorted to calling crash ball with Steyn more often than not in the second half. Okay, it worked because the second half won us the game, however that had nothing to do with Ruan's calls or his boot.

I've always been a big Ruan Pienaar fan, however he has started off porly and needs to pull up his socks imo, and quickly...

+100

Especially if he wants to stay at flyhalf

The Sharks aren't convincing me so far. They are scrappy and undisciplined. At times they looked as bereft of a gameplan as the Stormers.They need to get their act together if we are going to win this year.

Against wooden spoon fodder like the Lions and Stormers we need to get good points differentials and bonus points.

Our scrumming is absolutely abysmal as well.

Another great away win. 4 games( 3 away) 4 wins:cool:
 
2 out of 2 in NZ ....... now just 2 out of 2 in OZ and I'm happy :D Good to see that the chaps are staying patient. I can handle scrappy-ish play if we come together near the end for the win.
 
Problem is that we're leaking points at the moment. The immense defence that is usually our strong point is not firing on all cylinders, so if we can continue the great offensive game and pick up our defensive game, we will be unbeatable.

Great win nonetheless. The Blues are having a sorry start to their S14 season...
 
I can see us winning most our games nd losing in the semi's or final,when it counts.
 
Blerry hell... they're liable to give me a heartattack playing like that.

Congrats on winning though, wish we'd got the bonus point though.
 
Great second half performance once again.

I got a good feeling about this season,
