Beale playing himself out of gold jersey contention

Tahs look like they were on the piss for the bye week. Awful so far.

Beale playing himself out of gold jersey contention

He has been seven shades of shit so far. Attack is very lateral and stilted. No direct runners.

 

[light]

Tah's scrum dominated. Still for the life of me can't work out why loose forwards meerkat so much.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

beale already has what, 2?, passes to noone

"Noone" has been disappointing in not capitalising on the possession, Beale may be pressed to pass to someone else soon.

Taqele showed great strength in getting that try too. But I'd fire his hairdresser for missing that bit at the back.

Stormers giving a good account of themselves so far.

good to see berger back to his grubby 'best'

Burger is starting to look like Jack Nicholson in The Shining.

Cheika needs to have a word to Mike Fraser at half time

 

[Hugh Jarse]

I felt Etzebeths Rhodes knee twist from here. Ouch. He could be out for a while.

Edit: Oops. Wrong big bloke.

I love how burger shoulder charged Skelton and came off second best.

[A mutterer]

even though we got the pie, the stormers must be on thin ice for a yellow

 

[cyclopath]

Malherbe is fucking kneeling at that scrum and the peanut ref just looks on. It's a penalty, Nimrod!

 

[qwerty51]

Put TPN on at HT, should give us a little extra at scrum time.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Meat pie to Horne right on oranges.

Tahs lead 15-13 as they head for the changing shed for some oranges and lemonade.

Tahs need to lift in the second stanza and be more patient to build pressure through their phases.

 

[pissedoffihavetoregister]

seem to want to go wide all the time. They need to make some runs up the middle first.

 

[light]

Tahs to come home with a wet sail once TPN and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) get on the field.

Reckon they'll win this comfortably from here.

 

[cyclopath]

Tahs are lacking forwards hitting the ball at pace - they need to step up the intensity a bit. Stormers will smash that back all night.

 

[light]

then again....they have looked a little off .

Huge play Stormers, 20-15
