[QUOTE="SomeOke, post: 890306, member: 59145"] I know the general mood about the Stormers seems pretty pessimistic, but I have some hope, the fact that Kitsoff and Louw are both fit I think really means our baseline is somewhat solid, despite losing Eben/PsdT/Bongi. On paper the Tahs are still a great side with some of the best players in the world featuring in; Hooper/Folau/Beale/Foley, that said I don't really rate Daryl Gibson and for some reason they seriously under performed last year. Again there aren't going to be many chances for us to win away from home so we have to consider this one of the golden opportunities. If we kick to Folau, Beale and Foley all day and give the Tahs a chance to attack we are going to get crucified, I feel if there is a route to victory it's going to be upfront dominance, tight defense off structured play, and when they kick it at us run back at them rather than getting into a kicking battle we will lose to Folau.
