Well the stormers were in it for 70mins, at least.
Nicely done by the Canes.
I fugging hate the NZ teams...because they're so goddamn good...even when they're "bad"....
Stormers could have scored to take the game 27-27 or 27-29, but it was our scrummie, I think Duvenage, which took the ball in and then tried to pass while looking straight into 3 Cane players. On this level, under that pressure, with the Canes missing an Eighthman is where you keep going with the niggle. Scoring there would have resulted in a whole other outcome.
The Stormers did well today, they had the Canes under pressure, but were unable to stay composed themselves. All in all, the Stormers displayed good rugby to carry into the next game, keep to the continuity.
The Canes though, beasts. The rugby gods themselves worship these men, that is until the Crusade...
