With revenge on the mind for their earlier defeat at Loftus by the Stormers and a playoff spot in sight, the Bulls travel to the fair Cape with the intention of 4 points and the desire for 5.

So the Stormers beat the Bulls at Loftus. Ancient History. That Bulls side was lacking in confidence and was off to a terrible start to the season. The Bulls have been on a serious run of form lately and have played themselves into a position for a playoff spot.

Yes the Stormers are currently the top of the South African conference. Yes the Stormers have conceded a disturbingly low amount of points. But the Bulls are not the same team they were in the first few rounds of the competition.

The Stormers will be without a very influential and key part of their fight against the Bulls, one Peter Grant. He has the ability to mobilise their backline and turn the midfield pairing into more of a threat than the Sprinbok duo already pose.

The  Bulls still have an advantage in the lineouts and the scrums, in my opinion, which allows them to secure good first phase ball to give to the backline or to set up that now infamous maul from 15 meters out of the opposition try line to score some points.

With 5 wins on the trot and Victor's statement of intent: "The Stormers have a good defence, but we have a plan or two to get through it. We have analysed them and there are ways of getting around it." I can't wait to see what this game brings us.

I'm also on the lookout for the battle between the Springbok wings. Both Bryan Habana and Bjorn Basson are capable of something special, Basson is having a better time of scoring this season but this is never the less going to be interesting to see who can cross the white wash. Bjorn also has a massive point to prove after being left out of the Springbok 'planning squad' of 37 players (for some reason I cannot imagine)

Massive game, I'll be watching, so should you.

DHL Stormers v Vodacom Bulls
18h10 - Saturday, 11 June 2011
DHL Newlands, Cape Town

I think it will be a close game i dont think either side will get 5 points out of this one both packs are evenly matched i think it will go on who kicks their penalties over and i must say Morne is a match winner.Bulls will have to find some way through Stormers defence which is very good but i still think will be low scoring game

we will be giving the stormers a 'pakslae' in the scrums.

lineouts can be even with bekker there. loosies they have the edge by a bit, and we take the halfbacks by a mile.

centres is adv stormers, and back three adv bulls.

it will be close, and there will be blood flowing.

can't wait!
