00:00it was tc12 as mentioned matthew
00:05it was tc12 as mentioned matthew
00:17went down on this near side and that call came from amy barrett to ron
00:21with the penalty advantage going to the storm is beautiful drip pass from
00:24villumsa for gelan to gets outside of his man
00:29and looks for villumsa on his inside then hartzenberg
00:33knock on back to the penalty how good is kalanton motion
00:37it was a one-on-one day and he managed to create a little bit of magic but
00:42it was a free play from the stormers the collapse was from john ryan number
00:46three in and down
00:50yeah
00:55i think the stormers will go for touch here
01:01villumsa's line kicking has been phenomenal well the two penalties
01:05that he kicked to the corner both finding touch just five meters out and
01:10setting up
01:12close to the trick just go on the line there's five
01:18meter line outs collapse from john ryan's coming in and
01:21down
01:28four man two meters
01:34change positions way by the tap is from dixon and zas
01:38doing well to flick the pass away from villumsa
01:42and makes a couple of valuable meters
01:46just keeping munster on their heels defensively
01:50morabe excellent clean out from the stormers
01:58for david and then morabe once again
02:04making a couple of valuable meters with every carry now it's been jason
02:08dixon's turn offside call offside against munster
02:13so another free play for the home side
02:18no advantage number two offside that's the area of the field where patience is
02:23required but that's where you need your big runners
02:25right to make the dents out there it becomes a fight between the two
02:29defenses that come up we've come out and there's lots of voices
02:33you're number two shouting at me somebody else is shouting you're setting
02:36off the ball somebody else is shutting offside somebody
02:39else is showing cynical i don't want that i don't have to do
02:42anything about that number two
02:46so the penalties against munster hooker niall scannell
02:52a bit of a warning from referee mike addison to the stormers number two
02:56joseph dweber lots of chat going on that's
03:01the call against niall scannell which allows villumsa
03:04to set up another five meter line
03:14another awkward lineup well rescued by adre smith
03:21jeremy lockman conceding a penalty advantage as dweber
03:25goes in search of the stormers third out the back from villumsa it's a poor pass
03:32number one in the side it's a lot of penalties in the 22 meter area here
03:38number one i think one more there's going to be a warning you're coming in
03:41the second layer come at the back number one
03:49and the storm was more looked like it was going forward i think there's a bit
03:52of miscommunication with the lineup it was almost like a half jump but it's
03:57still got going forward considering there's a meeting down there you can
04:01see jd schickeling audrey smith having a chat together
04:05for months on the line on the five
04:24contest on the throw to schickeling and pulled the vet under all kinds of
04:29pressure as munster come piling through
04:33and well to retain that ball that storm is losing a good 10 12 meters
04:39off that line out contest morabe powerful carry from him once again
04:45then dixon pops it up for the vent duplicy
04:50inside for audrey smith
05:00no real option but to carry
05:04jenison it's a tackle now and he's on the ground
05:08tackle made munster called out of it
05:13another powerful carry regaining some momentum here villumsa
05:18oh beautiful line from hotzenberg and duplicity
05:21and now we'll go in
05:25well after a series of
05:29handling errors and some inaccurate passing
05:33a move where all the passes stuck to great effect for one now
05:39yeah how's that for passing under pressure
05:43slick slick short passes the fours are rumbling it up the backside give it to
05:48us and the storm is faithful love that but
05:51talk about crossing under pressure one two three four
05:57and over goes run now but some fantastic touches from the
06:02stormers yes under pressure monster players coming
06:0630 30 still beat the rush okay yeah thank you
06:14and as damien villumsa lines up this conversion attempt
06:18having kicked the previous two there's a change another change to
06:22the dhl stormers pack audrey smith
06:27who replaced ruben van hierden albeit with a number change
06:31in this week's starting lineup is now replaced
06:35by van hierden we're in jersey 19
06:41villumsa looking to curl it back he's done it beautifully
06:45it's an on day for damien villumsa definitely
06:53a versatile damien villumsa such a talented player two world cups
06:58already he's at 24 25 but that's the try from
07:02the storm was run out at the end he's still at a number outside him but the
07:05passing get that ball into space as quickly as
07:08possible the passes landed beautifully for the
07:11stormers
07:14billy burns
07:17114 caps for ulster now in his first season in the monster
07:24red
07:27on as a replacement
07:33replace shane daly who's looking slightly uncomfortably towards
07:39the monster bench remember with that late change
07:42the withdrawal of alex nankieville
07:46just the two backline players on the bench for munster with gavin coombs
07:51coming into the 23 weber collecting a rebound
07:56falling ruben van hierden with the carry then tiannissen
08:00looking to free his arms not quite excellent tackle from ty bird
08:05van hierden again immediately making his presence felt
08:12which we played on good collect chases from ruanel onto
08:17crowley
08:22and murray scannell pop inside for lochman
08:35excellent tackle made by the stormers meeting munster at the gain line after
08:39the pass from mike haley
08:45villumson made an early call and a brilliant catch
08:49tomahearn in with the tackle
08:54and the hole was there for hitling for sure but villumsa you want to
09:01talk about commitment or committing to the up and under that is it from
09:05damon villumsa come from it came from a long way out
09:10safe under it look at that never takes his eyes off the ball
09:13it's a safety of jumping up in the air so he's untouchable there
09:17a little bit of momentum but there's the hole for hitling for sure
09:20he just needed the ball with him yeah one of three guys
09:24john germania double change in the front row for munster
09:31jeremy lochman and john ryan
09:36being replaced by kieran ryan
09:40wearing jersey 17 and steven archer i think so
09:44so i've been told the starter last week number eight
09:48in the croat park derby against lenston now off the bench
09:51to replace john ryan
09:58okay nice and square consistent hit
10:03and another change okay time on there's the mark
10:06control the head jack o'donoghue he started at six against lenston
10:11wearing number eight today is replaced by gavin coombs who's wearing jersey 23
10:17the late draft onto the bench
10:22powerful wall carrier at the base of the scrum now
10:26for munster
10:29boom
10:38more power from the stormers eight and coombs picking up at the back
10:45important tackle from marcel tennyson but then number 19 taking the clear out
10:5019 penalties against reuben funhead and immediately
10:54a hand up in acknowledgement an apology to his teammates
10:59soft penalty a soft one
11:06what the stormers want to do is double up here but munster have been scorched
11:09at times you know held the line defensively
11:12fought pretty hard remember their record in south africa is probably the best out
11:16of all the touring teams for the visiting teams
11:22one springbok in the middle of the front row replaced by another
11:26joseph dweber departs
11:31andrei hito fenter replaces him the man who won his first test cap against
11:35portugal earlier this season in blomfontein
11:43murray crowley and then burns haley up from full back
11:52marie
11:56inside is 22 retreats
12:00neil and sas now playing everyone on side marie
12:05o'brien got away from hartzenberg
12:12jean claim setting up for a carry but popping inside for kieran ryan
12:17marie and hayley tennyson and morabi not doing the defensive work
12:25stay back stormer stay back thank you
12:32another carry for claim burns and crowley excellent tackle on
12:39ferrell from leiland sass and he earns the penalty
12:42no release of the ball
12:46that's a great read that's a great read from leiland sass
12:50that's the rush defense the outside defenders
12:53have to make some reason if you're going to kill it you kill it ball and all
12:56otherwise you're in trouble defensively willem so wants to go for this one
13:06so i think gareth wright the kicking coach is going to come on with the t
13:09for the game for the corner
13:12fought for a second he might be going for it but back to that tackle matthew
13:18takes time sometimes to get that but leonard's that's the experience there
13:21with that fantastic read
13:24good to see herschel yankees back rugby world cup winner with the springboks in
13:282019 back from a shoulder injury excellent
13:31tackle six six man never released the ball tom
13:36ferrell
13:39six yeah
13:44okay uh monster just open the gap
13:48also that position statistic was around 31
13:53for the home side
13:56last improvement since then but another misfiring line out
13:59into the midfield from scannell and crowley getting his pass away for ferrell
14:04lovely ball inside for o'brien
14:13and gavin coombs tucked the ball under the arm
14:17no subtlety in that carry
14:21hard and straight
14:25off the back from ryan crowley and then ferrell and o'brien
14:29beautiful combination between the centers
14:32and ken dellon losing the ball in contact
14:37two good combinations there between the two centers
14:40sean o'brien a late draft into the starting lineup to play alongside tom
14:45ferrell two former conic players now in the
14:49colors of munster in that midfield confirmation of the
14:52replacement of paul devette by herschel yankees
14:59they had a long-term energy
15:14the other back on the bench shami is yuri matia
15:18who you would consider a very solid goal kicker
15:24to be early in his vodacom urc career just
15:28five appearances in the competition before this evening
15:35just the two backline players on the bench but the way damian villum sir is
15:39kicking from the tee we suspect that they'll give him a
15:43little longer timing was fine in that 10 jersey
15:46and if he should depart or if yuri mater is to come on you
15:52so shifting to either 12 or 15
16:01yeah that's fine
16:22oh
16:26we're going to reset that there's a slip
16:30there was instability for the balls in instability for the balls in
16:38do you want to move it to the side of it are you okay fine here
16:42space on the crouch space on the crouch wait for the calls on the set call i'll
16:49give you more time to get your feet adjusted
16:56that's about getting the setup right here from both teams
16:59so it gives you put you in a good position to actually fire on the hit
17:05nice
17:19no clear dominance from either
17:24no clear dominance from either side
17:28if you want to go forward you can see already
17:32the angles aren't right wait for the set call
17:36wait for the set call
17:40thomas and completely disengaged from that scrum almost coming on
17:45nothing for sure
17:50the scrum is gonna he's gonna have to make a decision yet
17:54it's taking too long
18:09well he has made the call it's a penalty advantage
18:12van emsa looping around and grabbing the pass beautiful drift for
18:16clinton into the line findings us and then herschel yankees
18:24monster penalty it was a brave decision to go over the ball just
18:30slightly isolated herschel yankees and tight to the touchline
18:34gavin coombs quick to pounce yeah and that that was on penalty advantage too
18:39so it was a free play
18:44oh
18:46again slick hands from the stormers how's this pass from villum sir
18:51but we got it was on the halfway all the way up to 22 yeah
18:56but one two three four months the players around that ball
18:59good scrambling defense from munster
19:05the five
19:09five man line out for munster and over the fingertips
19:16of the skipper ty burn andre higa fenter securing
19:19on the ground for the stormers van hierden
19:24one of these standout players of last season's vodacom urc
19:28ruben van hierden good contest yeah contest in the air was
19:33good there was some contact both players clearly going for the
19:37ball
19:41good vantage over for the nose
19:45he would pass out the back just a little soft villum set
19:49and to retreat to fetch finta pulled off pulled off his feet
19:57excellent work from marcel tennyson
20:01no
20:05yankees straight up into the cape town night sky
20:10lost forward by sass crowley gathers burns
20:22too many players around that poor stormers place they needed to get out of
20:24that 10 meter radius
20:28that's a cheap penalty
20:31kick going straight up into the air from her shell yankees and
20:36no opportunity to retreat out of that
20:4010 meter radius another change in the front row newton for sure
20:44replaced by sassy sandy
20:51brilliant kick from crowley
20:54as munster chased the game in the final quarter
21:00worth repeating dhl storm is looking to achieve something they have never done
21:05in four attempts in this vodacom urc competition and that is
21:10to defeat the monster men sorry five five give you time
21:17here
21:23we saw on the field for just under 10 minutes in the first half
21:28the period in which he scored a try while scannell was off having an hia he's
21:34back on what goes on his first line out lost
21:38quickly taken throw in by nash for haley
21:44oh murray burns and that
21:49may have been a little forward crowley having a go though
21:53and nash was coming on the switch there's a little knock on there
21:58and a big let off yeah that's the danger of munster what they've been doing all
22:01day is going with those pool passes so behind the
22:04back of the front runner this time they went front door here
22:08so the defenders can slide off well that one's forward yeah that is forward
22:13and that's the one they're coming back for shim that's the danger matthew
22:17because the whole day they've been going behind behind behind
22:20eventually they start using the front options
22:23so the defenders get used to seeing the same picture all of a sudden it's a
22:26little pop to the front right now maybe we're going to be seeing
22:32okay let's play let's yuri matia out of necessity
22:35daniel phillips are looking very uncomfortable
22:41having spent a good period of time out of the game
22:47missing the entire international season for the springboks
22:50yeah and the first half you guys are down a lot
22:55i know he's done this time
23:00in munster four games
23:15that's where you got the knock on the chest
23:19but he's a tough man damon villum sir all is in the mix
23:30right
23:44going again in this half first scramble for sazzy sandy on the
23:52dhl
24:04making his preparations to come off the
24:12bench
24:22five
24:32well the penalty's gone said not giving anything the way of munster
24:36it looked as though steven archer was completely
24:40loose head straight down overextended but the penalty's gone against brock
24:44harris yeah that doesn't make sense
24:48watch your wing straight to ground there i don't know i don't see how it's a
24:51penalty against brock harris
24:55so we go on the set up watcher goes right straight to ground
24:59i didn't feel like you gave him anything
25:04get the space lads
25:09so under pressure in their own 22 once again after that
25:12scrum penalty tyke burn the recipient at the tail of the monster line
25:18one stop called as clark has control of the ball
25:24away by murray crowley looks to his inside
25:28o'brien quick ball for crowley and then feral manhandled by warwick
25:36galant and ruannell
25:41recycled for clark once again munster must rebuild
25:46burn another massive tackle and the ball knocked forward that's just
25:52a brilliant piece of defending from the dhl stories right it's a great
25:56defensive step also the tackle technique
25:59you can see going nice and low the double hits not initially
26:02bringing it together working as a unit dominating that game line
26:06and it all started with warwick galant look at this both nice and low
26:14one high so one low one high the connect and they start driving it's
26:19a great defensive work great defensive set
26:21from the stormers
26:25dixon and sazzy sunny in combination
26:31on munster's captain but previously warwick galant
26:34just got a dominant hit you know let me know before the blood is
26:39flowing jd schickeling getting some attention so too
26:43kieran ryan
26:46and norman laker the stormer's defensive coach he'll be happy this
26:50the player so much spent so much and that's take burn you remember
26:53that's a serious rugby player that bj dixon
26:57coming in with the big hit
27:02so schickeling needs further attention andre smith back on
27:06i don't think he felt it was as a temporary replacement
27:09just over 15 minutes to play here in cape town
27:14stormers starting this round round five of the vodacom urc
27:18in last position on the log just five points
27:23that being from their bonus point win against zebra in round three but just
27:27their second game of the competition
27:31nothing to show from their losses away to the ospreys and
27:34edinburgh so although they would be satisfied with their first win
27:39over munster they will feel that every log point counts
27:44he converted tries already desperate for a fourth
27:49hit square don't get low
27:53but not at the expense of allowing munster back into the game
28:01john clane replaced by finnean witcherley
28:09oh
28:14well he took his time whistle went and perhaps a call from the far
28:19side from aj yacobs there
28:24i suppose the thing is matthew not seeing a scrum contest here it's
28:27more penalty by infringement and a lot of resets
28:33so
28:47you want to see a scrum contest not really penalties because of
28:49infringements
28:55audrey smith straight back into the action away by yankees
29:00williams's hoist coming down just over halfway
29:03awkward one but well dealt with by sean o'brien
29:09marie and then burns with the switch of direction for crowley
29:15big hit on munster's fly half
29:20penalty advantage being shown and burns over the top
29:25a herd
29:27of
29:30archer didn't show the ball still that penalty advantage being played
29:35by mike adamson burns going for the cross kick
29:40a clever little juggle from oracle and high tackle and it's a high tackle call
29:47must have been the one on jack crowley i think i think it was the second
29:51tackler which might have been says he said he
29:54went all in there he tried to go big
30:02uh seven another change for munster it's uh alex kindelin replaced by ruan
30:10quinn
30:12it's on the ball a bit of backlash no he just went for a big hit i'm not
30:18convinced that's a high tackle
30:34and says he said he comes in here he's that high though
30:40uh
30:43it's just a hit and a tackle assist it's a good hit from him
30:57this has been one of the strengths of munster the ability to claw themselves
31:00back into games that's a hit on the shoulder
31:06so the first contact was on the ball from the other angle
31:09certainly some whiplash in it
31:18excellent line out for tom o'hearn clock hitting his man and one stop
31:23searching for the ball has it now as munster's mall
31:27is taken towards touch murray wonderful stepping from connor murray
31:34the defensive line being forced onto the back foot here
31:37fenneman jack crowley filling in for murray at scrum half
31:49in search of their third tribe tom o'hearn thought about the carry then
31:53popped it up for clark murray and farrell
31:59murray has it again and over they go gavin coombs
32:03powerful ball carrier john clean up off the bench
32:08the conversion should be a formality and yet again we'll be in for a tight
32:14finish between these two and it's all about
32:18getting once you're in that area converting
32:22but a questionable penalty against sizey sandy but monster
32:25coming alive here what coombs does well he almost drifts past here look at that
32:30he goes drifts he goes sideways so the pass beats the defender gets outside
32:34of sass and gets into the hole
32:43and the conversion was indeed a formality for jack crowley
32:47an extra two and just two points in it and what coombs does is that little drift
32:53as he drifts on the outside of the defender
32:57it's a bit of whip and over he goes
33:03which one it is the try scorer who now needs
33:06attention the high tackle yeah your number 18 we're just gonna wait
33:17both teams have had a lot of injuries yeah so i can't
33:20i can't favor one team and tell them to hurry up if i don't do the other way
33:37deep restart onto jack crowley there to make the tackle
33:45okay night and use it
33:52murray
33:56too much distance on the clearance kick the limsa
34:00stepping his way through monster defenders
34:04yankees
34:08galant was in there his first receiver
34:13oh the ball's been lost forward unforced error
34:16from the stormers that pass was a little high
34:20you've knocked it on into the monster player before you regularly standing
34:23still that's the problem if it hits the opposition it has to be
34:26a knock on
34:28with line speed size he says he usually got great skills he's standing still
34:32right on the line
34:37moving at all
34:40and then a pit square
34:48suddenly there's more anxiety in the stormers coaching box they look very
34:54comfortable after the ruanel tried took him out to
34:59the nine-point lead
35:03hey
35:07now back in the midst of a fierce contest
35:16burns was looping around but there's a decoy nash
35:21dan duplessis holding him up for a while
35:26whichally
35:29marie shapes to kick a little touch on there from a stormers player
35:34duplicy
35:36for galant
35:39dixon and then the limsa for now and fenta gets away from a couple
35:49brilliant work from andre hito fenta
36:00ball comes back on the monster side after a ferocious counter-attack
36:15get running backwards
36:19they carry on with a quick tap morabe strong carry from the number eight
36:25turnover is good
36:38burns hailey kicks deep galant man alone as he
36:45tracks back
36:48retreat stormers keep retreating and that's an excellent clearance
36:53down to halfway by warwick galant but you have to wonder about the quick tap
37:00penalty they're not have been better served
37:05kicking for a line out
37:10mario
37:13ethan cochran
37:16irish under 20 international on and then low now just his second
37:22appearance in this competition
37:27the place has been jason dixon
37:39so
37:55a lot of stop start in this game but we find ourselves
37:59again on a knife edge fun hidden with a crucial line out steal
38:03morabe making meters again
38:10you can't strongly kick him morabe throughout use it
38:13back foot nine
38:19hoist from yankees good work from the stormers
38:22back into the grateful arms of reuben funhilden timing was fine
38:26backwards lost backwards under pressure by herschel
38:29yankees
38:33both here villumsa
38:37and fenta
38:40there you go monster stay back don't touch it don't touch it
38:45don't touch it pulled off it three times
38:49at the ruck
38:53and the stormers have a penalty straight out in front
38:56no release what do they do here do they go for the three
39:00nuclear release
39:05that's right in front just a little bit of distance
39:15the shot has been called
39:23just to create a little bit of breathing space gavin coombs doesn't like it
39:31a judge to have been a tackle assist and never releasing
39:35as he went for the steal
39:38now the key with those is generally the refs talk to you when you're over the
39:42ball so you know whether you're right or wrong
39:44if you're wrong get out of there we had done that at the previous
39:48ruck mike adamson and that all happened very quickly and damian villumsa
39:54having kicked three out of three conversion attempts
39:58now calling in marcel tennison to steady the ball
40:02swirling wind inside the dhl stadium villumsa
40:08he loved it immediately and he has eked out a five-point lead for his team
40:18monster here well they're gonna have to go short with a kick
40:24i think these stores will be well aware of this
40:27territory of position key
40:40apologies for the temporary loss of graphics it's 24 points to 19 that's the
40:46most important statistic that you need with
40:50that penalty from damian villumsa three converted
40:53tries and the penalty from villumsa for
40:57munster three tries tom ferrell and clark and
41:00gavin coombs two conversions off the boot of jack
41:03crowley but with that attempted short restart which you predicted
41:07jimmy they haven't carried the 10 after the set
41:12gifting the storm is a strong opportunity in the center spot
41:17villumsa still holding the chest of us from that
41:20collision so there's still material on the page but villumsa
41:24does not want to go off whatsoever
41:28it just keeps getting the ice back on it storm is here i'm gonna try to go big in
41:31the scrum here but territory and position key
41:39line behind the ball
41:43behind the ball way by yankees
41:48brilliantly done by hailey
41:53awkward ball for volante but it goes for villumsa
41:56gets away from hailey makes his way through brilliant pass from nell
42:01zest to his left yankees to his right
42:06offside line into unison for keke morabe
42:13another stroke of brilliance from damian villumsa setting up this attack
42:17step up
42:20yankees for harris
42:25and then low now no monster second man back it comes from her show yankees
42:30damian villumsa looking for the drop he's got it
42:39does that make the game safe a damian villumsa drop goal takes the
42:45stormers out to an eight-point lead with two and a half minutes to play
42:52so
43:10kicks off doesn't carry the tail no he's got it just before
43:16he took possession before it went ten
43:24another substitution a late one dave ewers
43:31he's replacing keke morabe who will get a justified ovation from the
43:38crowd big game from the dhl stormers number eight
43:43you have to stay straight don't push it though what a game he's at
43:49he's just grabbed that opportunity he's always been bubbling under
43:54my goodness strong carries and contact over the ball defensively
43:58just apologies once again for the loss of graphics we're making do with the
44:02stadium scoreboard 27 points to 19 the dhl stormers lead
44:10monster on the cusp of their first ever victory
44:16time off against graham roundtree's men
44:26monster go monster go to durban to play the hollywood bed sharks next week
44:31the dhl stormers will be in stellenbosch the dining craven stadium
44:36a home fixture against the defending vodacom urc champions the glasgow
44:41warriors
44:55another reset 27 points to 19 a reminder of the score
44:59we're back times off on with our graphic he's just going to make a call
45:04right but you can see the frustration of the players i mean you too
45:08bro you have to stay square both you're just going in
45:11keep it straight okay keep it straight
45:16wait for the ball wait for the ball and don't step off the mark
45:21the time's off okay
45:25and then as you can hear what he's saying look he's going into his following
45:28him man it's what you want just two scrubs games
45:31but i think mike adamson's looking for the perfect scrub almost
45:49keep it square keep it square
45:54more power from the stormers scrum which brings them a penalty
46:02celebration from brock harris
46:06and from netland for sure on the bench the front row club
46:11is happy so eight points the margin one more try
46:21it's the dhl storm is a bonus point so damian villum so we'll surely be
46:27looking for maximum distance on this kick he
46:31put in two magnificent kicks in the first half
46:34that one is wobbly and hasn't found touch nash brought
46:38down by leo linds us monster need any points to get a losing
46:45bonus point they're currently
46:49out of range of any points they need to work field position here
46:55feral keeps it alive away to gavin coombs
47:01o'brien
47:07they are wanting to keep it alive whichally
47:11so
47:16and the monster having scored three tries as well if they can get a try from
47:2185 odd meters they could pick up two bonus points
47:25hayley
47:30be careful not to concede penalties though
47:41now they get a penalty storm is illegally slowing the ball down at the
47:44breakdown so they get this opportunity to
47:47kick for territory and set up a line out
47:53i'm still showing fight
47:58they're going for it but they need some players to get off the ground and
48:01get the medics off
48:13deep into time added on
48:26and just on the edge of the fight
48:30initial yankees in with a tackle then
48:36we've been fun here then you can see just not rolling there
48:39slowing the ball down
48:52clean win at the front from
49:00the dhl stadium erupts as ruanel goes over for a second
49:08monster looking for a little piece of magic from inside their own half
49:13to try and draw something out of this game
49:16but ruanel just needed a snip of the opportunity
49:24flat ball in the midfield little pop pass and
49:28ruanel wise to the trick one of the better defenders
49:36in the outside channel you got to make those reads and you're doing it
49:38perfectly there the perfect finish for the stormers as
49:42they get one over monster for the first time pretty convincing at the end
49:47but it was 88 times it was tight it was an arm wrestle
49:52but the stormers fronted up when it counted desperate
49:55stormers team but they managed to get it over the line
50:01what an evening for damian villumsa four successful conversions a penalty
50:10and a beautifully struck drop goal
50:14it was the drop goal that took the stormers out to an eight-point lead and
50:18forced monster
50:22to play from deep inside their own half
50:27to try and take something out of the game it was not to be for graham ramtrees
50:31men
50:33but for john dobson's dhl stormers a good response
50:39to their two losses out of three games on their tour they have a second
50:43bonus point win in their fourth match of the vodacom urc
50:48in round five so they go from five to ten points

51:24leaving the field in the second half after that cut to the forehead
51:30replaced by adre smith excellent work from a number of the
51:37stormers pack delight between the props with keke
51:40morabe marcel tennyson ben jason dixon led the tackle
