[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 376820, member: 39190"] Stormers vs Lions at Newlands. What do you guys think? On paper the Stormers should walk it especially with home advantage but the Lions have had the benefit of a real game under the belt and it was a game that they would take a lot of confidence from even if they didn't get the result. The Stormers on the other hand have had a decent unbeaten preseason BUT have yet to impress in 2011 and show they are ***le contenders. That said their defense did look spot on and that should see them through; the defense putting pressure on the Lions. We have good wide defense as well which is crucial for this game as the Lions look to give the ball air and play a very Australasian game with John Mitchell at the helm and some dangerous runners at his command. 25-18 to the Stormers; Stormers letting in a last minute try after dominating the game through gutsy defense and tries from counter-attacks and a driving maul.
