Toulon's passing has been terrible and is going to cost them this along with Isa's greedy f**k up for a near certain try.

Seran is keeping Stormers in this one. He’s gash.

Indeed. He's always been sh*te and only France would have capped him as many times. :sick:

Pollock is an amazing player, for someone smaller than average, he is incredibly strong and breaks so many tackles

The one on Ribbans was called by the tmo as no foul play despite a clear arm to the neck with force

Maybe. Ribbons went down on the ball fast, Dwebe had no time to adjust at knee level.

Saints do play the brand of rugby we want to watch. I fear for them though when they come up against a side with serious force up front.

Stormers scrum get penalised regularly , but Toulon can go down on their scrums and Dixon ignores it.

It's a tough call between both set of 1/2 backs for that accolade in this one.

I had Stormers by 1 because I was utterly unconvinced they'd win this but hedging bets early on in the FR.

You’re not wrong. Both back lines look like they met their teammates at the breakfast buffet this morning.

The way Pollock carries reminds me of Schalk Britz.

Very similar.
