Stormers director of rugby John Dobson said he was happy to take the 24-20 United Rugby Championship (URC) win against the Sharks on Saturday despite all the handling errors and missed kicks that almost cost the home side the game.
The return leg derby was held in front of a sold-out Cape Town Stadium, where the Sharks have not won since May 2021.
There were multiple handling errors and disallowed tries from both sides of the field. However, the cheering of over 50,000 fans saw the Stormers never give up, deservedly winning the game with 56% possession and 382 metres made compared to the Sharks’ 217 metres.
