STORMERS: DOBSON DUMBFOUNDED AFTER HEAVY LOSS
Stormers Director of Rugby John Dobson was bitterly disappointed with the way his team’s impressive unbeaten start to the season came to a humbling end with a 61-10 Champions Cup thrashing at the hands of struggling Harlequins at Twickenham Stoop on Sunday.
It had been an unprecedented start to the season for the Stormers, with them brilliantly winning all 10 matches in the United Rugby Championship (URC) and Champions Cup, up until this past weekend, only to produce a disastrous performance in London.
