For Warriors captain Kyle Steyn, who grew up in Gauteng, it was also a great moment to lift the trophy in front of his family at Loftus.It was a well-deserved win for the Warriors; they defeated two former champions, the Stormers and Munster, in the quarter-final and semi-final before dispatching the Bulls in the final.
They eventually dotted down through Van Staden who powered his way past the Warriors’ defence, carrying a few players on his way to scoring. Goosen added the extra two points. That allowed the Bulls’ defence to take a break after absorbing pressure for ten minutes. They returned from that entry with three points through a penalty by Goosen.
Their backline ran circles around the Bulls’ defence and created a chance for Huw Jones to score a try with George Horn slotting in his third conversion.
