Stormers coach John Dobson said he had 'mixed feelings' following his side's 22-22 draw against Leinster in what he described as 'insane' Dublin conditions on Friday night. | Sport24news
The Stormers went from dominating proceedings to barely hanging on in their 22-22 draw with Leinster on Friday night. The Stormers are the first side this season to avoid defeat against the Irish giants.
It took a late try from Clayton Blommetjies against the run of play to rescue a draw for the Stormers.While the result might be a case of what could have been for the Stormers, they are the first side this season to avoid defeat against table-topping Leinster. Dobson praised the character of his side in coming back when defeat looked almost inevitable, but he was scathing of their poor execution - particularly in their tactical kicking - in the second half.
"It was a game of real intensity with two quality teams going at each other. Mixed feelings. We were under the pump for large parts of that second half.
