Will it be Stormers or Bulls fans cheering the loudest this weekend? Picture: EJ Langner/Gallo Imagesand according to analyst and former player Joel Stransky, there will be joy for only one of the three South African teams in action this weekend., in Cape Town in a repeat of last year’s final and last weekend’s Currie Cup clash .
Stransky added: “The Bulls have looked more organised recently. However, I can’t see how they’ll dominate against that Stormers pack, break down their defence, while the Stormers’ backline is very under-rated. I think the Stormers will shade it.”Turning his attention to the Sharks match against Leinster, the former World Cup-winner from 1995 said Neil Powell’s men had a “tough task” in front of them.
“And with no Siya and Eben they’re going to struggle. Their game just isn’t suited to beating Leinster.”
