What are the reds missing? The pieces all seem to be there from the outside looking in. The Reds pack has punched above its weight the last 3 years. Maybe it's not at the moment.

Anyway, I tipped em. They will turn it on at home.

Nick McArdle isn't doing his homework. Opened the telecast saying it will be Saia's 100th game.

Best of luck reds and fans. A Davies hatrick is a certainty as well as a bonus point and no injuries. Will also become a millionaire after the lotto draw. I will settle for 2 out of 4 though.

You couldn't tell this Stormers team was in crisis behind the scenes with injuries, and a new coach looming over Allister Coetzee.

Stormers defence stifling the Reds momentum when they've tried to build the phases. No ball carrier consistently getting over the adv. line. And the Stormers are spending a few more phases then usual in their half putting it through the hands.

A penalty to Cooper makes it 3-7 at 20 minutes.

Fuuuuuuuu- sickening replay of a hyperextension of Gio Aplon's forearm/elbow as he was tackled by Slipper. Does not look good at all.

What is it with the people at Skysports UK apologizing for the swearing caught on ref mics, and the replays of Aplon's injury? Political correctness gone mad.

And as I type, first try in Super Rugby for Simmons! Add that to my fantasy points!

10-7 to the Reds after 27 minutes.

I was fine with the swearing apology last week, but this with Aplon was unnecessary

Reds scrum should've been penalised at the end there, unlucky Stormers.

Stormers' defence is way too passive. Giving up ground too easily. At the end of a long tour, they'll tire at the end.

Likewise Reds, coming back from SA you'd think they'd tire a bit at the end too.

Add in some sloppy slippery conditions, and I suspect that the second half will be a messy arm wrestle.

Reds falling off some tackles early in the second half.

Good rib rattler from Slipper on de Jongh.
