As it stands, the Christmas derbies against first the Bulls (December 23) and then the Sharks (December 30) could prove season-defining for the Stormers if they win the two games they play before that. Their first post-tour home game will be against Zebre on December 2 and then they switch to the Champions Cup in the gap between then and the Bulls game. The Stormers will not want to be too far behind the Bulls when they play in Cape Town two days before Christmas.

Temperatures reaching 29c in the city today and it certainly feels hotter in the DHL Stadium 54 Monstrous hit from Ben Thomas on Willemse but it does little to halt the Stormers, who go coast to coast.
Max Llewellyn the latest to chip in with a big defensive hit but another chip behind unlocks the Cardiff defence. Jantjies and Libbok combine to send the latter over for the home side's third try of the afternoon as we head to the break. 19-3 #URC 36 The Blue and Black pack can be very pleased with their maul defence there to strangle the Stormers' possession and force the turnover.
Three reasons why the Stormers should win Saturday's 20 Oct 2022 — IOL Sport's Wynona Louw gives three reasons why the Stormers should win their United Rugby Championship game against Cardiff this Saturday.
“The Cardiff game has become an incredibly important one for us and while I hate that term ‘must win’ as you go out to win every game you play, it is crucial for us to get the win, ” Dobson said. “If we pick up five points against Cardiff it will leave us with seven points from the tour. “That is just one point less than two wins, which would be four points each, and while it would be less than what we would have liked, it will still leave us in a good position as we head back to SA. ”In saying that, Dobson is clearly mindful of the amount of jeopardy there has been in the competition in 2023, something that has made three consecutive defeats less damaging to the Stormers than might otherwise have been.
There is no unbeaten team left in the competition now that Glasgow Warriors have beaten Benetton, and it has meant the teams in the top 10 (the Stormers are now ninth) are all still fairly close together on the log. The leaders, Leinster and Glasgow Warriors, are eight points clear of the 2021/2022 champion team and 2022’s beaten finalists, but one game can change that significantly, as the Bulls discovered when they lost to Edinburgh. The Bulls were considered highflying a week ago and now they are just three points ahead, the point being not that the Stormers should be worrying about the Bulls but it showed how quickly things can be changed by one game when the Bulls dropped from first to seventh. If the Stormers do pick up five points in Cardiff, and one of the two front-runners loses, the difference will be just three or four points again — and like the Bulls, the Stormers have a run of home games now to look forward to.
Dobson remains positive despite Stormers’ run of URC lossesThe defeat to United Rugby Championship (URC) champions Munster in Limerick at the weekend ended any hope of the Stormers returning from their four-match tour with the 50% success rate that was the minimum aim, but coach John Dobson is far from despondent. The Stormers play Cardiff Rugby in Cardiff on Friday night in their last tour match and Dobson makes no bones about the fact they will be going out to get a full house of five log points in an attempt to minimise the damage of three consecutive tour defeats. The Stormers lost at Arms Park in 2022, so he will be mindful of the need to win first, but he left little doubt that was the aim when he spoke to the media after his team’s 10-3 defeat at Limerick Park.
