The only way Ulster can beat them is to open it up. Play a Stormers gameplan. The Sharks defense is kak. They get cricket scores against them.
How did that work out when we met this year......oh I forgot. We beat the Stormers with our C team
How many log points for that victory?
I am finished with Sards. You can sort him.

Ulster are averaging about 40 points a game so far this season
Well Duanne Vermeulen will be valuable (double his money) worth to Ulster.
That's the difference between Soup and URC. We play against excellent vokken Saffers.
What might count against Ulster is how much they exerted themselves last week in the high veldt. Can see Sharks finishing the stronger.

Sharks are inconsistent. Brilliant one week poor the next. Let's just hope it's a cracker like the first 60 in the Leinster/ Sharks game.

Frans Malherbe will become the most capped Stormer player , passing Schalk Burger
“What Frans has achieved at the age of just 31 is incredible, if you think about some of the players who represented this team before him.
“He is a great example of a top team man and just his presence in the squad this week has given us a lift,” he said.

For a bit perspective in 2007 Duvenhage played u19A for Paarl Gim, Zak Burger played u10A for Kleingim.
That's amazing. WP players playing for other teams. Nooooo.
Shocking

At least with the 4G pitches at this time of the year, you've a better chance of a clean, completed scrum.

Scarlets young SH is getting a bit of a schooling tonight. He's made a few costly mistakes, & he looks like he's not used to the pace of game yet.

36 - 14 FT in Galway
I don't think I've ever seen this toothless a Scarlets side in attack before. I know they've a load of injuries, but they were gifted their only try, & the rest was just penalties.

Jake White is a shit coach. There I said it. Over-rated. Just a tiny bit better than Sean Everitt.
