yes, as the officials favoured the Sharks on all calls. Three times they should have issued a yellow card plus that penalty try was a joke and that pass for the winning try looked forward yet they did not even bother to take a look.

There will be times when decisions will go in favour of the Stormers during the season and then you will likely be cheering the referees and those that support the Sharks will castigate the referees in future matches when things are not called in favour of the Sharks...

I'm not keen on the new Super Rugby format...I think it a bit of a joke the way the pools are set up...in my humble opinion, there should have been two pools with the teams from each country split and top two in each pool playing in home and away semi and then final in neutral country with neutral referees...

I've canned my DSTv and just follow some sports on the net so don't exactly know what is going on in matches when I read comments from Clanners but gauge the state of the match from the tone of the comments !!

And from your comments @cnc, I gathered that things were not going too well for the Stormers given your (wind-up?) prediction, during the week, of a comfortable win by the Stormers...

If it i were the Stormers coach i would rest 5 players for more pressing opponents in the future and kick off this match with just the 10 players on the pitch which should be more than enough to beat the fin less Sharks :whistle:
