00:00converted by Bowdoin Barrett for the All Blacks a triumph of Deon Ferri converted by Yakin Ahmed
00:04for the Stormers halftime this magnificent stadium constructed ahead of the 2010 FIFA
00:10World Cup and then another stadium created for that purpose 16 years ago the FNB stadium in
00:20Johannesburg and then the fourth and final test of the greatest rivalry series will take place
00:26in Baltimore in the United States four consecutive weeks of pulsating test rugby so much to look
00:35forward to and a negatively competitive attritional first 40 minutes this opening tour game and Bowdoin
00:47Barrett gets the second half underway but the ball not traveling the required 10 meters
00:54just confirmation that the DHL Stormers lost the services of their scrum half Imad Khan early in
01:01the piece replaced by the 38-year-old Diyabh Duvanaka just one of two backs on the bench for the
01:06DHL
01:07Stormers Terram Tembu with me in commentary how much of a factor is that going to be they all
01:11blacks with a 5-3 split on the bench the Stormers having to go to their bench for one of
01:16their two
01:16backline players inside the first 10 minutes and that's a danger unfortunately when you go with a
01:216-2 split where if you do get an early injury you're gonna some players will have to stay on
01:27the
01:27field a little bit longer that means a Wandi Similani not get a lot of minutes here today
01:32how important will the Achieva Daimani be who has to cover for the backs the youngster
01:38Wandelem Laba as well so tactically they have to be sharp how else you keep your break foot up
01:43a free kick at the first scrum of the half and Yakin Ahmed takes it to the line didn't see
01:48much
01:48of that in the first half the under 20 world champion fly half his first carry of the game
01:55he took it flat and got smoked on the line he's a little more cautious after that but a good
02:01carry
02:01first up in the second half Warwick Chalant goes to the boot backwards backwards off the hands of
02:09Rico Ioane but secured by Evan Roos for the Stormers for sure flat on the line and out the back
02:15for
02:15Galant
02:17now
02:21Dubonacher Daimani
02:29Connor Evans he was the go-to man at line-out time establishing those Stormers malls in the first
02:35half Galant goes to the boot as a medic on the field there who almost took contact with the ball
02:45it's not a lot of options for Warwick Chalant putting in the front foot kick
02:50seeing the backfield cover from the old blacks wasn't there and forced that said peace battle in
02:56the 22 force all back to exit I know I'm going to apply a lot of pressure on them Anton
03:02Cegna
03:04okay a little bit groggy must have got to hit somewhere five five took a blow terror in the
03:11first half he saw it quite a nasty cut around the eye and waved off the medics pretty quickly obviously
03:20had some attention to that I'll do my best during the half-time break but now getting assessed
03:26all-black's medical team a possible head knock
03:32where we have to know there is a change for the DHL Stormers one to see less similarly
03:43running that is for Ruan Nell Stormers captain try and get some more news on that talk a whole
03:49finding Parker black eye and Cegna we're inside slick combinations between you all black's back row
04:00Rattima goes to the boot for Rico Ioani to chase
04:10a little unfortunate for Rico Ioani he lost the ball backwards Dion Ferree was pouncing on it but he
04:18had to get back to his feet to play the ball there's a disconsolate looking stormers captain Ruan Nell so
04:25no more backline players on the bench i think you're right i think achieve a diamante may well end
04:33this game playing somewhere in the back line we've got clicking morabe and wandelia blaba
04:41on the bench there's the loss backwards from Ioani
04:47instinct took over no definite penalty Mary did all the hard work contested knocked the ball back
04:53and just played the ball in the ground said peace opportunity for the stormers
04:57another ball for connor evans one one stop called no contest from the all blacks that time so they were
05:09better positioned to resist them all
05:14they went to play the ball and they got out of their own Marc
05:15Johnnie roach as first receiver taking it over the gain line now Ahmed
05:22fabian holland doing the defensive work first touch for one to see Simmelani
05:28no no thanks
05:31that lovely little ball inside between the lock forwards Evans and Smith quick right ball for
05:37divanaka Matongo now yucky no I'm it quick to shuffle it on for Leo Linsas Billy Proctor
05:49cleaned off it in the nick of time divanaka goes short side Evan Ruiz with the clean
05:58don't go in don't go in Billy Proctor in considerable pain as well
06:08he is that stayed down on one knee just trying to get back in the defensive line
06:13I'm not sure he's going to be of much effect now yucky no it goes aerial again towards
06:20Siobelo Sanatla who claims he was taken out in the air and Matthew Carley
06:26has it the assistant referee on the far side I know you haven't been around for a bit but
06:31that's not anything naughty there from Bowdoin Barrett not contest in the air just pulling
06:39Siobelo Sanatla down while it's in the air unnecessary penalty
06:45if you have a look at Bowdoin Barrett again just disrupting pulling Siobelo down
06:52naughty penalty from the experience
06:54love
07:04Billy Proctor on the near side looks like he got a high shot on the shoulder hopefully it's not too
07:14bad in the first game of rugby's greatest rivalry a solid player is Billy Proctor
07:21quarter off then quarter off
07:27number one storm in one storm in one it's definitely an AC joint
07:34you got near think Fashia getting a run up on you just need to brace yourself
07:50the stadium staple all over the world sweet Caroline
07:58as well they sort some injuries and substitutions out Billy Proctor coming off
08:08to Tukum Kunu also coming on for DHL Stormers replacing Burnham and Tongo at
08:14loose head what a contest from Fabian Holland but Connor Evans getting the
08:20better of that contest All Blacks taking the ball towards touch
08:25Dion Ferree staying up on his feet trying to keep that ball going forward
08:32now Dubin off it all black players were through the middle
08:35netling for sure
08:39black eye cleaned off the attempted still Connor Evans
08:45just went a little too early before he had ball in hand
08:48and now Leonard Brown can burst out from near to his own try
08:52on you are any will give chase to his kick what a collant tracking back here
09:01and Simulani trying to step his way out of trouble big contact from Leroy Carter
09:08no hands 14 14 second second go and devil Dubinaca with a hurry kick into touch amazing how the all
09:20blacks
09:20were able to transition from desperate defense after the loss forward by Evan Roos into devastating attack
09:28that's the danger of the all blacks in history we've seen in the transitional attack and Leonard Brown in the
09:34thick of it once again
09:37on it's been an arm little meter and talk a whole
09:46power
09:50they're on a penalty advantage here
09:53Cortez ratima having been played it was by Dion Ferree a couple of racks back so a free play here
09:59see a bellison at the court offside
10:01and Morby up in the line
10:0914 offside you know that play in the night
10:13but Josh Morby okay so we have a exciting attacker with borderland just a couple mistakes
10:19in the 22 one in the first half one in the middle for playing another opportunity lost again
10:24an offside penalty just the old blacks building that pressure it's good no look offload from the experience
10:32Ricky Johani but they have another opportunity momentum is with the all blacks at the moment
10:41oh what a moment for that young man see Ali lawaki 23 year old from the hurricanes
10:48towards south africa with new zealand's under 20 side but now
10:52the first appearance for him in the famous black jersey
11:01two consecutive years as a new zealand schools player so it's come through the ranks through the
11:06under 20s as well now replacing basilio tosi
11:12and that tight end
11:15which is good tolkeoho great athleticism from the all blacks captain lovely little pop inside for
11:22cigna as well
11:28ratima got the call to go short side for leonard brown still they go
11:40the call coming from the assistant referee lovely to see so many traveling fans taking advantage of
11:53this journey through south africa
12:01it's good chick play from you're part of the great legs in one meter
12:05with that forward pass just not retreating it quick enough if he's not within the middle
12:10around the corner right now that process forward maybe maybe it's good chick play but just poor
12:18execution unfortunately they love that clear break the old blacks are just building pressure with
12:24ball in hand testing the home size defense but i must say they've been really really solid is the
12:30stormers i'm staying in the fight to tackle fight the work rate to get numbers
12:39some of these players haven't played a lot of rugby in the past two or so months since the urc
12:47count
12:49cut on the face of anton c is leaking again needs to be
12:55better attended to
12:58two new props hit square both plenty of encouragement from him for the new cap siali lawaki
13:06it's an extraordinary story anton cigna born in germany went on an exchange to new zealand
13:14as a rugby player a year later was playing for new zealand schools
13:23through the under 20s and into test rugby
13:29it's quite a journey similar to fabian holland in many ways who surprisingly grew up in holland
13:36five to new zealand earlier fulfilled his lifelong dream of playing for the all blacks
13:45that's a wonderful scrum looked as though the all blacks got the early hit on there
13:52the exceptional counter from the stormers eight wins them a penalty advantage
13:59oh what a collant almost sidestepping himself
14:05so unpredictable is what it's a land and that's what that's what makes him a great player
14:11i just never know lost the battle what he's gonna do and i love those types of players and
14:16a quick tap from the youngster yakin ahmed finding siabella sanatla and then andre hito finta he's got
14:22on it to his inside yakin ahmed could this be the moment finds sanatla again
14:33well the penalty is one that is a critical steal leroi kata was back there 14 20 pleading with the
14:41referee to award that penalty and what a breakout that was from yakin ahmed walking towards the penalty
14:51spot to kick to touch sensing an opportunity a brave play from yakin ahmed deep into his half and having
15:02the confidence in his first game for the stormers look at the support play a good run from the hooker
15:09under yukha venture born in two hands and look at the work rate from siabella sanatla after his pass a
15:16great tackle but look at the numbers back from the all blacks to get back into defense exceptional work
15:23rate
15:28and closing the gap the dhl stormers so free kick awarded
15:34moving into the gap bigger boden barrett the option of the up and under went for the tap and go
15:41leonard brown
15:46ratima for you only even a strong tackle
15:52lackey got man and ball simultaneously and caleb clark jersey 23 with a little tip on tauke oho
16:04he's done
16:04okay use it please latima
16:10no way through for the visit
16:15penalty advantage conceded by connor evans
16:21using your hands to get to the break now stop was disciplined in the second half
16:28have let themselves down. They've given her quite a fair bit of penalties in the second
16:33half and have given this all-black side easy entry into their half. They were in control.
16:41Great hit. Good double head from Andre Smith. But unfortunately Conor Evans is using his
16:48hands while he's trying to counteract. You know a good idea but just poor execution and
16:53then ease the entry into their own half. Well the Stormers are a man short here. Johnny Roach has
16:58stayed down still receiving attention from the medics. Caleb Clark. And he was just slightly
17:08isolated. Guess who gets in over the ball to win the penalty. Six is on his feet. Over the ball.
17:18Dion Ferri. He'll be in that all-black dressing room afterwards swapping stories and maybe
17:26dishing out invitations for his 40th birthday party next month. He doesn't look like he's
17:33not he's going anywhere anytime soon. Dion Ferri is special. The low center of gravity. You
17:40could hear him in the mic telling the ref that he's holding on. I mean the brutal strength.
17:46To stay in the breakdown is John Ferri. He got to commend his physique, his conditioning,
17:51his discipline to still be playing at the highest level at 39 years of age is incredible.
17:59Down by Andre Smith and Ferri again. And Siabello, Sanatra, that is just magnificent.
18:20Siabello, Sanatra, doing what he does best. A dummy more from the Stormers. That man again,
18:27John Ferri picture perfect parts. And no one was going to stop. Siabello.
18:41Heading towards the final quarter of this opening game. The greatest rivalry tour. Yakin Ahmed.
18:50Just letting the shot clock run down. With a kick. To level it up at 14-all.
19:02Yakin Ahmed gets the extra two points for the home side and takes the score.
19:08One level. Picture perfect parts from Tion Ferri. Siabello, Sanatra. We're never going to stop him.
19:17And as we know, we've seen a signature celebration every single time he scores.
19:23We deserve to take a bow, sir. Just six matches in the United Rugby Championship for Siabello, Sanatra this season.
19:34But just cherishing every minute on the field. After a horrific car accident in which he almost lost an arm.
19:46Such a legend of the sevens game. Oh no, I don't think that was that.
19:50Prolific scorer. Made his way back into the 15-man version of the game.
19:57And what a moment in a wonderful career.
20:04Says a lot about him. That to come back from. I mean, he's out for almost a year.
20:10You know, the mental battle that he had to go through. I mean, to come back and still be playing
20:14at this level.
20:15Good kick-off take from Andre Smith. And that Maul again. Just an all-black struggling to deal with them
20:21all.
20:22From the line-out. Even from the kick-off as well. The momentum has definitely shifted to the Stormers.
20:38That's one.
20:39Only Norris wearing jersey 17. He's replaced George Bauer. Loose head. Andre Hitler-Fenta staying up in the tackle fight.
20:48Let go. Let go.
20:49He's been waiting for support to arrive. Achieva Daimani. Growing in confidence as the contest wears on. Now Johnny Roach.
21:02Evans.
21:08A little knock on there. Miscommunication maybe between Yakin Ahmed and Wanda Sile Similani.
21:21Not the pace pass, but he could have caught that. This poor communication between Yakin Ahmed had the numbers.
21:31But the rhythm again is going to come the more time they play with each other.
21:35Now there are the boys from his alma mater. Weinberg Boys High School. Not far from here in Cape Town.
21:41So proud of his achievements. More replacements for the All Blacks. Sam Darry and Ethan Blackadder.
21:47Now here's a story. The last time New Zealand toured South Africa in 1996. The first game of the tour.
21:54was against a Boerland Invitational 11. Not far from here. And Ethan Blackadder's father, Todd, played in the opening game
22:04of that tour.
22:05And now Ethan at 31 years of age.
22:11Boerland Invitational 11.
22:12Gets on the field in the tour's first game of 2026.
22:17Break foot.
22:18Must have your break foot up. Still no completed scrubs.
22:20Booker.
22:21It's time for a break foot infringement.
22:24Leonard Brown from the quick tap.
22:26Ratima.
22:28In the chest.
22:28First carry.
22:30For Sam Darry.
22:31Don't pin him.
22:35Barrett.
22:36At the back from Tolkeoho.
22:39And Blackadder lurking out in that wider channel.
22:52Barrett again.
22:54For his captain.
22:56Tuipolotu.
22:57Caleb Clark.
22:59Wins a good tackle out of Wandi Simulani.
23:02That's a huge hit.
23:03On the ball.
23:04On the ball.
23:05Says the referee.
23:06And then knocked on.
23:08It was tight head on tight head.
23:10Here's Daimani.
23:11And Simulani.
23:12Facing his own pick.
23:17Wonderful cover from Sam Darry.
23:21Who's being hunted.
23:25By Evan Ruas.
23:27And Simulani.
23:34Stormers.
23:35With just under a quarter of the game to go.
23:38Sensing.
23:39The opportunity for a piece of history.
23:43Denied by.
23:44The athleticism.
23:46Of Sam Darry.
23:47A grip.
23:52Ahmed.
23:53Slicing through.
23:55Held his ground.
23:57Then lost forward by Bowden Barrett.
23:59Scrum advantage here.
24:00That's enough.
24:01The chest.
24:02So we've got two knock-ons.
24:05No knock-on.
24:09Okay.
24:12Knock-on.
24:13A couple of knock-ons.
24:15First by the Stormers.
24:20No no no.
24:21Now he's ground in turn.
24:23Had a bit of a line break.
24:24Seeing that space in behind.
24:26And a double knock-on.
24:28From both sides.
24:29Maybe a bit of fatigue starting to creep in.
24:32Lots of penalties starting to happen.
24:34You know what.
24:35Third quarter of this game.
24:40Substitutions for the Stormers.
24:42Ruan Ackerman.
24:42We're in Jersey 19.
24:44Replacing Andre Smith in the second row.
24:47And then.
24:48Keke Morave.
24:49Another one who's spent a big portion of last season.
24:52Out with a terrible knee injury.
24:55He's replacing Dion Ferree.
24:57Who will get a rousing reception.
25:00As he returns to the bench.
25:04As he so often is.
25:06But having made significant impacts on this game.
25:10A try scored.
25:12By him in the first half.
25:14Turnovers one.
25:17And now takes his leave.
25:18Keke Morave to the.
25:20Open side flank.
25:23How?
25:26Fine.
25:30Set.
25:37Peter Lacai.
25:38Off a static scrump.
25:40And now takes his leave.
25:41Brave tackle from Yakin Ahmed initially.
25:45But then.
25:45Unable to roll.
25:46And conceding the penalty.
25:50Clark for two.
25:52That's going forward.
25:57And another change.
25:59Asafa Omua.
26:00For Samsoni.
26:02Takeo.
26:06Yakin Ahmed.
26:08It's not rolling away quick enough.
26:10And a very good hit from him.
26:12But just unfortunately.
26:13Not working hard enough to roll away.
26:17So the ball.
26:19Can be played.
26:19Good hit from the young man.
26:21Just need to work a little bit harder.
26:23So Cortez.
26:25Was able to clear.
26:28Of the definite penalty.
26:32Asafa Omua.
26:35Three test appearances.
26:37Against South Africa.
26:38In his 22.
26:39Internationals.
26:41His first line out.
26:44Pinpoint perfect.
26:46Leonard Brown.
26:47No help.
26:49Ratima.
26:50At the back from Derry.
26:52And Barrett for Ioane.
26:55Carter filling in at Scrum half.
26:58Norris.
27:05Derry.
27:06And Tui Pelotu there.
27:07To assist with the clean.
27:11Morby up from full back.
27:12His pass not going to hand.
27:14Caleb Clark.
27:16Carter.
27:20Elusive stepper.
27:22Leroy Carter.
27:23As he showed in his.
27:24Sevens career.
27:25And his first opportunity.
27:27At test level.
27:28Last season.
27:29Against the Springboks.
27:31Clark.
27:34And then.
27:36Kicked into touch.
27:38Option.
27:39By my line.
27:40Both options available.
27:41To the Stormers.
27:43An unforced error.
27:45From Leroy Carter.
27:47He'll be extremely disappointed.
27:49Had a bit of space in front of him.
27:53Wonder what.
27:55Conversations are happening.
27:56In that coaching staff.
27:58I mean it's not a bad start.
27:59In a 64 minutes.
28:00Influis came out.
28:02Now get the international side.

30:33this all-blacks team just playing everything
30:36of nine with a bit of pick-and-goes seeing that the stormers have got a massive line speed
30:42but this is one way to contain line speed with the one or two pick-and-goes
30:46short everything of nine exhausting the touchline and eventually the wall had broken
30:52five tries in the black jersey against the spring box for rica joani now one in the first match of

34:56cortes ratima
34:58leonard brown
34:59joani and lack eye
35:01wonderful step to get rid of lierlin's
35:03that's chased down by simulani
35:05part
35:07to the inside and back up
35:09and over
35:19you sense just a little bit of back line disorganization with the reshuffles
35:27the holes
35:29inevitably appearing
35:30a good head from the all blacks
35:33could step on the inside
35:35but like i showed great turn of face
35:37good little offload step on the inside
35:39from leroy carter
35:41had a bit of work to do
35:43the all blacks getting the ball to with
35:47and just have abundance of loose forward step on the inside
35:50from leroy carter had a bit of work
35:52one two three and the dive over
35:55what a try from the all blacks
36:03josh jacob

36:11taranaki in the npc
36:14got his chief's debut in 2024
36:16and now gets his first points on debut for the all blacks
36:19but step on the outside from peter lackey
36:22does extremely well to suck in one dissimilarly
36:24the record the steps on the inside
36:26beats one two three tackles
36:28showing his seventh experience
36:32then elusive runner hard to stop
36:35when running in pace
36:39confirmation of another substitution young herman libert

39:23black jerseys in front of him
39:24tried to go for that kick
39:26clearance kick
39:27but unfortunately
39:29a masterful
39:30masterful performance
39:31here from the old
39:32the last five or so minutes
39:33playing the ball
39:34a reward for
39:35an absolutely outstanding
39:37super rugby season for the
39:39Hurricanes
39:40who were imperious
39:42in that competition
39:45lost forward off the restart
39:48William Laba
39:51regardless of the results
39:53some of these youngsters will
39:54simply never forget this moment
39:57so early in their careers
40:00wonderful offload
40:01from Keke Morave
40:02for Warwick
40:07half a metre short
40:10as he tried to twist and turn
40:13Ackerman
40:16tapped on by Ahmed
40:19lost forward by the All Blacks
40:21Daimani
40:22Morave

40:45in the second half
40:46good line break
40:47from Morik Galant
40:49had a bit of work to do
40:51exceptional tackle
40:53three All Black jerseys
40:55work great
40:56to make sure he doesn't score
40:58the try and missed opportunity
41:00from the Stormers
41:02the shots are great fight here
41:04in this game
41:05they should be proud
41:06just looking at
41:07potential cynical play
41:09there on the floor
41:13Andrew Jackson
41:14the TNO
41:14has come in
41:16with
41:16some potential cynical play
41:19Laba had it
41:20as part of the tackle
41:29so we're looking at
41:30actually the Black
41:41it was Josh
41:43moving on the floor
41:44while he's on the floor
41:45preventing him from
41:46he grabs that
41:47running and placing
41:49needs to be on his feet
41:50to do that
41:51so
41:56so he lets go of the ball
41:57then he comes back round
41:58with that right arm
41:59and holds on
42:00just give some space please
42:05have you seen the same thing
42:0615
42:07lets go
42:09I'm happy with that
42:10and then he comes back
42:11over the top
42:11while he's off his feet
42:13are we looking at
42:14a potential penalty trial
42:15or can we not say that
42:16Stormers are not going
42:17to be able to roll again
42:21sorry
42:24so we're looking at
42:25ok can we just watch it
42:26once in full speed
42:27and then I think
42:28we're ready to have a discussion
42:29so we're allowed to place
42:31once
42:32ok
42:33so we're looking at a penalty try
42:34and a yellow card
42:35against 15
42:36happy with that
42:37ok
42:37Jacko we have a decision
42:40well
42:40coming back to you now
42:41yellow card
42:41third one of the game
42:42ok 15 originally makes a good tackle
42:45he takes his arms up the player
42:46then his right arm
42:48comes back over the ball
42:49and stops the Stormers player
42:50potentially scoring a try
42:51it's a penalty try
42:53and a yellow card
42:53against 15
43:01there was at least one spectator
43:03in the crowd
43:03who agreed with that decision
43:06visually
43:08back to your point
43:10terror on work rate
43:12that is one of the things
43:13that Dave really will be
43:16pleased about
43:17he won't be pleased with the
43:19discipline
43:19the number of penalties
43:22sure a number of those came
43:23from scrums
43:26the discipline has let them down
43:28on occasion during this game
43:30and there's
43:33one other example
43:35spent
43:37seven minutes or so
43:38down to 13 men
43:41when
43:41both Simon Parker
43:43and Anton Leonard Brown
43:45were off the field
43:46for yellow cards
43:48it's lost forward
43:49by Patrick Tuikolotu
43:55so discipline an issue
43:59as it can be
43:59so early in a campaign
44:01early in a tour
44:04but work rate
44:06outstanding
44:07you can see the desire
44:10every player wants to make a
44:11statement put their hand up
44:12and say select me for a test
44:14match on the South African soil
44:16I mean you always get that
44:17with a relatively new coach
44:20match where you want to impress
44:21everyone want to play the first
44:23test against the spring box
44:25and I'm sure everyone in the next
44:26two or three games are going to
44:28get a chance and they want to
44:29impress
44:29so they make that starting 23
44:32against the box
44:33time
44:33it's worrying her Lance turn
44:34at scram half now
44:35set
44:39to feed this scram
44:41back in 1976 when the
44:43All Blacks
44:45played the equivalent
44:47of the Stormers Western
44:48province of Newlands Western
44:50province
44:51we're 11 nil down came back to win
44:54that game by a solitary point
44:5512
44:5611 it's not going to be the case
44:58here in Cape Town
45:01what a privilege to have been here
45:03to witness the first match
45:08of this tour the first time
45:10the All Blacks
45:11visited South Africa for a full
45:13test series tour in 30 years
45:16Sean Fitzpatrick's All Blacks of 1996
45:19left
45:20our shores victorious
45:24some wonderful matches await us in the next month
45:27stay out
45:27stay out
45:2816 16
45:29stay out
45:30on what
45:34Sam Derry the taker
45:36Moor going
45:39sideways
45:40and a stop called
45:41down by Black
45:43and then
45:44Almoha bursting away
45:46and putting the exclamation mark
45:49on a powerful second half performance
45:54led by 14 points
45:56to seven at half time
45:59with Simon Parker's try
46:01just 90 seconds before the break
46:04but they have
46:07streaked away powerfully in the second period
46:11and Almoha was not going to be stopped
46:20a good set
46:21from the All Blacks
46:24which has
46:25taken
46:27the score to 38 points to 21
46:30we spoke about work rate the quite a few mistakes
46:33even the discipline did relatively let them down
46:36but the effort there was
46:38exceptional
46:40Josh Jacob
46:43hooking his
46:44third attempt
46:46off the kicking tee
46:47but it was
46:47four tries
46:49in the second half
46:52they made the final
46:5410 or 12 minutes
46:55really comes in their favor
46:57Dave Rennie's All Blacks
46:59mission accomplished
47:01on the first
47:02match of the tour
47:07six tries
47:08and four conversions
47:10scored by the men in black
47:13INE
47:13two converted tries
47:15for the DHL Stormers
47:16and a late
47:18penalty try
47:18as well
47:19and that brings us to the end
47:20a late penalty try as well
47:20and that brings us to the end
