[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 99564"] Well Blackbird, I for one tend to agree with you on the Stormers coaching- not since the days of Alan Solomons have the Stormers had a decent coach- look, anything is an improvement on the Carel Du Plessis/Gert Smal duo- great players that they were, they were just plain shite in the coaching dept. Unfortunately, Kobus looks like a bad Van der Merwe joke at this stage- even though his team performed well in last year`s Currie Cup, it was more down to some individual moments of brilliance by some very talented rugby players than any semblance of a game-plan. I seriously wonder why a very successful coach in Gary Gold gets stuck with the Province u/21 team, with the backline guru Slapchips Rossouw as his assistant, while V D Merwe is allowed to muck up our forwards even further. Look, we don`t exactly have a powerhouse pack at the best of times, but there is some very exciting talent around, even in the tight 5, and he should be able to do better with the talent at his disposal. That said, I do believe it`ll go much better this weekend, as the Stormers are up against a team that can`t really hurt them as much up front- the Force only really have Sharpe and Flava in the forwards who warrants some sleepless nights.
