Stormers vs Blues

Blues v the Stormers (it's missing one game vs WP back in 1996)
Pretty even
The last 6 matches have been won by the home side

@Duluth my tip for this game was decided by a coin toss...

You're much more confident than me
Stormers are on a good roll, the Blues will need some luck

@Duluth the margin I picked was double that of the average result above too...

Highlights from the 2019 match vs Stormers
That Tele’a try was great. Anyone know when he’s due back?
Other than the Tele’a try the main thing I remember about that match was the stoppages the Stormers created. They were really concerned about their fitness last year

@Duluth I went to that game. Tele'a also got ref carded for taking a man out in the air. It was far tighter than the scoreline suggested,with our defence standing up to the task.

TJ has been defending extremely well this year, and issue last year when played at 13 and Marchant has certainly improved defence when he played at 13. A risk swapping them around, but I like this backline.
that Marchant Ioane swap is weird. Must have some reason, but Rieko seems a better winger, and Marchant a better centre. I dunno, hope this isn't back to the days of Tana's lottery...
I think it’s the same with Nock, we have nothing to lose with this game so giving Nock his last try to impress, and letting Rieko have his shot at centre.
If it doesn’t go well then the coach can say he tried and put him back on the wing.
Yeah.
I'm moderately excited about Nock though. A good game here, and it's on. Ruru has been pretty frustrating, and I'm keen to see how Christie goes.
Hopefully Kurt's improved. Any update on the Parsons injury? I haven't seen anything, but getting trampled by a couple of monsters didn't look good

Rieko defending at centre... Doesn't look pretty.
