Lacking intensity against an energised Blues team cost the Stormers dearly as they relinquished their unbeaten Super Rugby record on Saturday.
The Blues who opted to prepare at altitude in Johannesburg following their win over the Bulls soon knocked the hitherto unbeaten Stormers out of their stride.The Stormers made an uninspiring start. They made elementary errors including kicking out on the full, failing to secure their line-out and tackling from an offside position counting among their early misdemeanours.
A second Otere Black penalty handed the visitors a 13-point lead before another variation in their attack – a cross kick – presented flank Dalton Papalii a try in the left hand corner.
