John Dobson did the treble on Jake White in a stunning Vodacom United Rugby Championship final in Cape Town,The DHL Stormers 18-13 win against the Vodacom Bulls was as much a victory for Dobson over White as it was for the hosts over their rivals from up north.
White and his Bulls will wonder how they lost a final in which they controlled everything in the first 30 minutes, but only led 7-0.The first 45 minutes of this contest belonged exclusively to the Bulls and the next 30 belonged to the Stormers. The last five, with just five points separating the teams, was a lottery.
For the Stormers, every week for the past three months seems to have been a final, and they have somehow found a way to win. But when things settle over the next 24 hours, Dobson will know that this was the season he did White – and that takes some doing.
