As a proud capetonian that’s pathetic from the Stormers. Even with the entire first team injured basically. That scrum with our 9 peeling off for their first try. It’s a danger zone, get the ball and get it out
I’m a South African and I don’t think we should play in Champions Cup. We send bullshit sides to go earn a few euros but not compete. At least all the Boks are at home resting but this competition is diluted now. Only the French should send development sides and that’s because they’re scared of the equator.
As a Stormers boy, I am absolutely embarrassed by this result, even for the other SA clubs in this tournament we got to go back to the drawing board and be better or go back to Super Rugby down south…
Very tough to put out strong teams week in and week out when you need to rest players. And SA plays rugby all year now so it seems to be proving difficult
The SAREO said it's for players welfare and that they agreed to it. Very silly to agree to play for 12 months when you now realise that SA teams get hammered now. SA fault lol
I'm very surprised to see attendance in the UK matches which seem very low how can english premierchip teams can have very good players and old and small stadium I'm a supporte of UBB with more than 30k at each match
Because of the geography. Africa is not part of Europe. I'm not bothered about having global competitions but at least recognise it for what it is. A revenue earning opportunity for broadcasters. Shame for English clubs that TNT didn't renew. I'm not paying for PremierSports too, so I now have 9 weekends free during the season. EPCR is going the best way I know to devalue the competition. TNT didn't think the tournament was worth the price.
@@TCt83067695I don't think it's racism! There's just a lot of tension between NH rugby fans and Saffas. They all need to just sit down and have a beer together 😂
If they stop complaining about travel , pitches,Northern hemisphere refs against them, etc, etc, they will get on just fine. It's the victim mentality that no one wants
Send SA teams back to super rugby where they can finally win something😂 would rather help grow the game getting other european clubs in from Portugal , spain , georgia etc…
@@fxpremium8822 cause no one wants to move to africa to live they’d rather come to Europe 😂plus so your saying south africa have never had other players outside sa represent them… and you do realise other countries have won a world cup before not just sa? Theres a reason no one like SA fans
absolutely not a Stormers fan here at all, but SA sides clearly sending 2nd string sides overseas for the ICC is a bit of an indication of how highly Saffas think of the comp 🤣🤣
Most of the SA sides smashed this weekend 😂😂😂 its hilarious hearing all the excuses, and to think SA fans saying this tournament was easy acoiple of weeks back😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Champions Cups are not for SA clubs..They should have known this already . That was embarrassing. The Sharks were embarrassing. At least the Bulls did put up a fight but failed
It’s different philosophy. SA teams are filled with just SA players. So we build depth and win 50% of the World Cups we’ve played in. European teams are filled with players from all over and your national teams struggle when it matters! “European elite” means big salary budgets and players from all over the world. If you’re proud of that you’re a plastic fan
@@michaelbaxter7452 And you completely missed the point. Sometimes it's better to be thought a fool than commit comments to TH-cam and remove all doubt.
Rugby authorities are completely out of touch.They have obviously never heard of less is more.What is the point of having a competition when teams are juggling their players around.Its not just SA teams doing that as Leinster also do it in the URC. More games doesn't mean more etc the crowds dont come and im sure its the same with TV. The peanuts who run rugby should wander around the pubs in South Africa.At a pure thumbsuck 90% have a Premier League soccer game on even with shit teams on like Man U (13th on table). The Champions Cup should be exactly that just the winners of the Comps and if you must the runners up. There will be genuine interest and no silly buggers with team juggling. Any SA teams making this Comp shud play their games in Europe.That includes England. South AFRICAN teams were whining about travel in Super Rugby.I think there is more backwards and forwards now just less time travel issues. Lastly all senior rugby administrators should intern with an NFL team for a year. If Rugby wants to survive it could well do with borrowing some of the razzmatazz and the b 0:00 ullshit of NFL
Agree on NFL. The main problem in the Champions Cup though is the English clubs decided to destroy the original successful format before SA even joined. What we have now is an already shit competition with more teams added. Would be dying anyway without them. As an Irish fan I'm happy to see the URC go from strength to strength.
Te veel rugby , spelers is tam en moeg ,stop oorsee klub toernooie , kry curry cup aan die gang soos ou dae en skare sal paveljoene volmaak en klub sal weer geld maak . Baie mense kyk nie meer rugby , hul mors nie hul tyd op kak nie .
Not that it bothers me as id rather Quins win. That yellow from the restart. Rubbish the 2 players lifting him let him go mid air. The stormers player had every tight to compete for it. Very very soft yellow that. Just a mild penalty.
Thank you Quins for such a magnificient early Xmas present even against an under strength Stormers😅
Loving having the refs make on field calls for head contact, much more transparent and often much better decisions
As a proud capetonian that’s pathetic from the Stormers. Even with the entire first team injured basically. That scrum with our 9 peeling off for their first try. It’s a danger zone, get the ball and get it out
What was he thinking??
@@real_bakerman he wasn't
The Stormers are all wind here.
This completion is a joke now, two South African teams conceded 50 plus points today .
Only bcoz they played 2nd XV when playing away as competition set up allows😊
@@andrewharris1837But altitude fc were home today and still got beat 😂😂
Let's see if all of them end last then you can say that. Just remember the teams you want in there place are worst than them in the URC.
@@andrewharris1837 they shouldn’t participate if they’re not going to try, devalues the whole comp

Stormers are in a dip with an injury crisis. But a good win for Quins.
The salary and depth deficit starting to show once you have more than 5 regular starters injured.
One more year, DC
As a Stormers boy, I am absolutely embarrassed by this result, even for the other SA clubs in this tournament we got to go back to the drawing board and be better or go back to Super Rugby down south…
Dobson, if this isn't a sign to pull out!
Dobson: "Moerat has an enormous presence" Killing myself... Cant stop LOL
🤣🤣🤣 delusional right.
Stormers got embarrassingly battered. Too easy for Harlequins
It was a B team though.
@@FJM992always excuses, if it wasn't that it would be the ref, typical SA fan reaction
@@MrJonnyd81 I’m Scottish. Just pointing out it was a B team. I understand that conclusion though as I agree it would be a typical SA fan excuse.
A reality check for the South African clubs in the Champions Cup. It's a real tough competition.
50 + points is embarrassing
Dobbo..love ya . But time to say goodbye..technically Harlequins just shredded you .
Very tough to put out strong teams week in and week out when you need to rest players. And SA plays rugby all year now so it seems to be proving difficult
@@michaelbaxter7452 especially as SA sides see higher chance of winning URC
The SAREO said it's for players welfare and that they agreed to it. Very silly to agree to play for 12 months when you now realise that SA teams get hammered now. SA fault lol
Then when injuries mount up it gets even worse, this Stormers team right now has at least 10 injuries
Rugby's always better with Alan Partridge doing the commentary. 3.44
Romping like a derby winner
If the SA teams aren’t gonna bother sending proper teams to play, then kick them out of the tournament.
Something like 13 injuries and counting in this Stormers team right now man, believe me they'd like to send a first team too.
Yellow card? They need clarity over this challenge in the air rule
I'm very surprised to see attendance in the UK matches which seem very low
how can english premierchip teams can have very good players and old and small stadium
I'm a supporte of UBB with more than 30k at each match
What it seems quite high here?
Because revenue from match tickets isn’t the clubs only income
For a start The Stoop capacity is only 14800 but it does sell out most weeks and looked pretty busy to me
Stormers Fan here. This is a coaching problem because i can see talent on the field but i don't see any proper strategy, structure or defense
Get the South African teams out of EUROPEAN competitions
Why are so many people annoyed about the SA teams being in europe
Because of the geography. Africa is not part of Europe. I'm not bothered about having global competitions but at least recognise it for what it is. A revenue earning opportunity for broadcasters.

Think you said it yourself, Africa, playing in a European competition. Why.
Racism of course. What's new?

They won URC in their first season…
You are winning with players from all over the world in club rugby that's why you can't win World Cups with your own players 😂

Win super rugby? Didn't do much of that either
absolutely not a Stormers fan here at all, but SA sides clearly sending 2nd string sides overseas for the ICC is a bit of an indication of how highly Saffas think of the comp 🤣🤣
R Kelly sang a great song titled The Storm is over
respect to stormers they kept going and got their try in the end, but why are they even in this competition?
Most of the SA sides smashed this weekend 😂😂😂 its hilarious hearing all the excuses, and to think SA fans saying this tournament was easy acoiple of weeks back😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What happend here can someone explain to me ? They fielded their under 14 team ?
See someone said stormers were ravaged by injuries.
I bet all the Sout Piels are grinding 😂
It’s concerning that all the SA teams are getting trashed with 20/20 cricket scores.
What a joke . All that noise every year 😂
We win World Cups with our own players 😂 You win Club comps also with our players and others from all over the world
Champions Cups are not for SA clubs..They should have known this already . That was embarrassing. The Sharks were embarrassing. At least the Bulls did put up a fight but failed
@@Paul-v2e2o funnily enough only the Bulls used a strong side...they really should have won.
Bulls ain't a hope of winning the Champions Cup or even a URC title.
@@Paul-v2e2o nobody said they do...we were talking about this round of matches...
stormers seeing more yellow than a daffodil farm 🤣
You are funny
COYQ
Stop with all this excuses about "B-" and "C-" and "D-teams."
We got beaten by teams that were plainly far better - and better coached.
SA teams are not good enough.
But they are better than the teams you will replace them with. So what's the logic here?
Player welfare. Stormers are resting their good players
Springbokke poesneus
Logic ? European championship, european teams.
Because you’ve won a game or two 🤣 SA teams have dominated since entry
Major damage to SA rugby, …
And...let the SA excuses begin.
back to back world champs
Its time for the coach to move on. He has no more ideas, the team hasnt improved over the last two seasons. Its time
SA teams out of Europe pleaaaase
Well many SA players are playing in your European clubs helping you win ...
Agreed
South Africans are not too pleased about this tournament either mate. It's boring.
@@thembelanihdlamini5395 seker omdat almal verloor ja
The South African players are the ones making your clubs win, but okay, we won't complain.
Stormers getting destroyed
Stormers going down hill maybe a change is due
South Africa won more Rugby World Cup compared to the whole six nations combined.
And yet that does not change the fact that the Stormers just got completely spanked...
That is relevant to this video how?
Because that’s relevant 🙄
Time for Dobson to go useless
Kinda disagree with the Stormers second Yellow Card. Player went for the ball.
Terrible highlights. Someone needs to have a word. The AI ain’t very intelligent!
Total kak.
Disgraceful
What a waste of time and money going overseas to play rugby!
Stormers is a waste of time watching nowadays especially so late in the evening SA time. Not worth it at all they are a bunch of losers😂
SA clubs are the whipping boys of Europe's elite club competition. Better off sticking to second tier competitions like the URC and Currie cup
SA has more RWC than all of Europe combined, you dingus.
You beat a second 15 SA club side get over yourself 😂
