Rassie Erasmus, head coach of the Vodacom Stormers, on Wednesday announced his team to play the Chiefs at Waikato Stadium, Hamilton, on Friday 14 March. Kick-off is at 08h35, South African time.
The Stormers official website reports that the only change to the team sees the return of Springbok flank Schalk Burger to his customary No 6 position. He takes over from Luke Watson, who was outstanding in that position in the victory over the Reds last Saturday.
Watson moves back to the No 8 position, where he played since the start of the competition. He replaces Robbie Diack, who reverts to the substitutes’ bench. Pieter Myburgh falls out of the match 22.
Erasmus said it ws difficult to leave out Diack. “Robbie is an excellent player, we all know how good Luke is and Francois is an unsung hero. Pieter is going to be a really good player.
“We will need all of them over the next ten to eleven weeks. The plan always was to start rotating them some time. It is not about any individual. We are busy with a process.”
The coach, who tasted his first victory with the Stormers the past Saturday, regards the Chiefs as a tough nut to crack. “If we arrive in the right frame of mind against the Chiefs, I believe it will be a very close game.”
The Vodacom Stormers team is as follows:
15. Conrad Jantjes

DAMN YOU KSA !!!!
oh dear…
I really think Bolla should come on a bit earlier, he gets the ball to Grant alot quicker than Ricki does.
What is KSA doing on the official Stormers website btw?
😯
😳
I agree PJLD.
He did very well when he came on last week.
If only he can get rid of that windgat attitude…
So which teams still need to be names.
Force
Highlanders
Hurricanes
That’s it I think.
I may actually get to make my SB picks early for a change 😎
Cmon Wes, Bolla wouldn’t be Bolla without the attitude.Also, whats a scrummy without an attitude?
That is not a bad side.
This is one of my more difficult picks of the week. 🙁
Bolla isnt windgat.
He is just plain GAM!
I have gone with the Chiefs…
I know… but did you see what he did after scoring the try against the Reds???
Oh and btw, spoken like a true scrum half hey???? 😎
And miracles do happen,
MY SB PICKS ARE DONE!!!!!!!!!! 😎
I can’t recall who I picked.
BUT I WILL SAY
I have made sure Kette doesn’t crib off my picks. 😉
Although maybe i should have cribbed off of her. 😳
Okay i picked the Chiefs also
check the email you just received KSA, sheesh do I have to remind you about EVERYTHING 😆

Die enigste organisme meer arrogant as jy, word nog ontwikkel. Jy verkeer
skynbaar onder die indruk dat alle lede van homo- sapiens moerse beïndruk is
met ‘n platberg, suurwyn en vrot snoek. Jou “laidback” lewensstyl is jou
verskoning om luigatgeit te regverdig. Jou idée van “foreplay” is ‘n

Jou oumagrootjie was die eerste prostituut op die Johannesburgse goudvelde.
Jy gaan kyk net rugby op Ellispark as jou span wen. Ellispark is dus ‘n
uiters vreemde planeet vir jou. Anders as ander spanne se ondersteuners moer
jy jou vrou wanneer jou span wen. Dus is jou uitgebreide familie reeds vyf

Jy gee die konsep “oningelig” ‘n heeltemal nuwe betekenis. Besoekers aan
Bloemfontein beland elke keer by die Ford-garage wanneer hulle verwysings
vra na die naaste Escort Agency! Die enigste ding platter as jou provinsie

Coloured girl is giving directions to her new boyfriend to get to her flat.
She says: ”You come to the front door of the complex where I live ne,
and look for unit 14A. With your elbow push button 14A. Come inside and
you’ll find a lift on the right. With your elbow hit 14. When you get out of the lift you’ll find my flat on the left. With your elbow, hit my doorbell and I’ll open the door for you.”
The boy says: ”Ok duidelik Baby that sounds mos blaaind easy to find. But why must I do everything with my elbow huh???”
Girl says “Excuuuuse me, you’re not coming empty-handed mos? Jirrre!
Where is a coloured girl going to say “unit” ??
I think Ricky is the right man to be starting the game, he is far more robust round the fringes, Ricky isn’t always the man at the base more often than not its Luke ‘I am versatile’ Watson or Bekker or Muller who all seem to have a debate with themselves as to weather they should throw the dive pass before actually throwing a long loopy pass to Grant.

BWHAHAHAHAA
Sauce
do i understand your comment correctly?
You saying Ricky should start and then saying he is never at the base of the scrum?
If so then to me I would start with Bolla
Hehehe KSA but i also think that Ricki is a definite starter, but should play 60 minutes max.
Reason he is missing from the base sometimes is that the boy actually gets through alot of tackles and sometimes has a few fatties chilling on top of him.
KSA – yea it comes across like that, but its not the case Ricky can handle the slow ball the Stormers forwards seem intent on delivering to him and the rest of the backline, not sure Bolla could. And he often carries it up to set the next phase when one of the forwards makes the decision to launch the backline with aforementioned looping pass.
Sauce, you have a legion of fans over at Voldy these days! Seems evryoe missed your calmness under fire 🙂
Rob, nah i suspect its the few i drank beers with.
perhaps you’re right 😉
