This is probabaly going to be the game of the weekend, it is certainly the one with the most significance.
AND I WON’T SEE IT. 👿
Both teams are level on points with the Stormers edging 2nd spot because of having a better points difference by 40 points. A loss could see either team’s home semi chances slipping away.
The Stormers have let in only 12 tries thusfar with the Crusaders only 3 ahead having let in 15. This is significantly better than 6th placed Brumbies who are next best having let in 20 tries. Does this mean this is going to be a boring game? Not on your life. Expect a humdinger of a game.

Peter Grant runs to the Streamers try line, calls one of the Saders over and hands him the ball to score a try.
