The Stormers and Bulls are set for a titanic battle as both teams aim to become the first SA side to win the United Rugby Championship.
be able to get the same mongrel and attitude out of players who many might feel played their “final” last weekend? I think he’ll make sure they’re still very motivated. It is hard though to repeat a very good performance again the next week.
And, unlike the Bulls who were so good last weekend, the Stormers were horrible in their semifinal, so they have their one bad game out of the way now. They’ll be pumped after beating Ulster with such a bad performance.and his men have the advantage of playing at home and having their fans behind them.I’m looking forward to a few key match-ups that will be huge over the 80 minutes.
On another matter, I really like the Springbok squad picked by the national management team last weekend. There’s so much depth and on back-to-back Saturdays Jacques Nienaber could pick two completely different 23-man squads and that side would possibly beat whoever opposes them.
