Waratahs v Stormers, rd 13 Super Rugby 2013

[Ash]

Stormers try to maul, Skelton gets in the way and forces Kolisi (?) to knock on.

 

[Pfitzy]

Too many turnovers. We're done here

 

[boyo]

Gee, Skelton is a big man.

 

[Pfitzy]

Barnes is back with the aimless kicking. Fuck

 

[qwerty51]

This has been a great execution of rugby* by the Stormers

*their rugby

 

[Ash]

Horne knocks on under pressure, Devanage kicks to Barnes, Mitchell gets to halfway. Tahs now getting over the advantage line. Barnes kicks to the corner, too deep, and the Tahs pay. Barnes now kicks again from the 35, rubbish kick, Hababa chips, Tahs can't take it and knock on.

Stormers on attack again 40 out. Pieterson kicks to the coerner, but Mitchell takes a mark.

Vermuelen down injured in back play.

 

[Ash]

Ouch, Vermuelen's knee is gone. Think he might need a reco there. And he knows it as he smacks the ground.

Barnes' kicking has been A-grade shit.

Mitchell with an average clearance from the mark to 45 out.

 

[qwerty51]

That wasn't forward, if he waited for the try and then went upstairs..

Okay probably forward.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Backwards out of the hands - surely...

 

[Ash]

Lucas on for McKibbin, 8 to go.

Stormers win the lineout, but Tahs drive them backwards and get a turnover as the Stormers knock on.

Strong run from TPN gets 5m. Penalty advantage, ball goes wide, Douglas taps to someone who taps to Ryan who's away to a clear line.....but forward!

Back for the penalty. Tahs kick to the corner and turn down the shot at goal.

Was forward off Chapman.

 

[Pfitzy]

SCRUM!!!!!

 

[qwerty51]

Crash ball to Rob Horne off the scrum. He's been getting over the ad. line every run.

 

[hazzaj]

my nails are getting really short right now

 

[Ash]

Elstadt limping off now. Stormers lock on at flanker for the Stormers.

Tahs win the lineout and work around the corner and the Tahs forwards rumble on. Strong runs from Ryan.

 

[Ash]

Tahs knock on, but had a penalty advantage. They take a scrum 5m out to the left of the posts.

 

[qwerty51]

ISRAEL!

3rd time this year we've done this. Great stuff.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

And we increase out score in multiples of 5 as predicted.

Izzy gets the 4'n'20.

Archie's Dad makes the conversion to put us 3 points in front. 2 minutes to go.

 

[hazzaj]

IZZY IZZY IZZY CANT YOU SEE, SOMETIMES YOUR TRIES JUST HYPNOTIZE ME

 

[Ash]

Scrum steady, Tahs going close. Another advantage being player, Tahs 1m out and they go close a lot.

Barnes to Folau, and he's in!

Try Tahs!

That's surely the game.

 

[Pfitzy]

YESSSSSSSSS! Played like a bucket of shit all night and we still might do this!
