Stormers Bulls clash set to be a bone cruncher

Although the Stormers are at the top of the log and the only unbeaten team in Super rugby so far. Their performances over the last few has has left a lot to be desired. Winning unconvincingly against teams who had depleated due to injury. A lot of stupid mistakes by players which led to the other teams creeping back into the game. The fire power of the Stormers should be suficient to put down any team covincinlgy but they havnet yet sparked into form yet. The Bulls on the other hand apart from their two loses to the Crusaders and Blues by narrow margins have been in devastating form this year, destroying both the Cheetahs and last year champions the Reds. The Stormers will have to lift their games and their big name players will have to step up if they are to quell the rampaging bulls.

Liverpool football club is statisticly the most succesful English football club. They have won the league 18 times, the FA cup 7 times, the league cup 8 times, the champions league 5 times and the europa league 3 times, giving them a total of 41 titles, moving them 1 place above Manchester united who have 40. They may not have been in winning ways over recent years but they are still one of the power houses in English football. They are on the rise again winning the Carling cup last month and in the running for the FA cup stand a chance to win another title this year. This may be the comeback fans have been waiting for.

Western province, rugby power house?

Throughout history Wetsern province has produced the most Springboks of any franchise in South Africa. In the recent past they have produced some exciting young players such as Johan Sadie and JJ Engelbregcht just to name a few. These exciting young players have recently moved from the Stormers franchise. So they produce these players and other franchises reap the rewards. Francois Hougaard being another of the players moved from Province. There are of course some more young players coming through now who have shown some great potential such as Steven Kitshoff, Frans Malherbe, Siya Kolisi and Eben Etzebeth, lets hope that they can hold onto them.
