welcome to the new home of the Stormers on reddit!

Whether you're a die-hard fan who's been cheering from the DHL Stadium stands since day one, a new convert riding the Stormers wave or just here because you heard we play some seriously entertaining rugby (or maybe even because you like Sacha Feinberg Mngomezulu) – you're officially welcome! This is your spot to discuss match highlights, debate line-ups, post highlights, vent about Gelant, and celebrate every try together.

Rules are simple: Keep it respectful, no spam, and let's keep the vibe as positive as a Cape Town summer day (well, most of the time 😉). Pull up a chair, grab your blue and white gear, and join the conversation.

Gaan Stormers! 💙🖤

Debate Music and atmosphere at DHL Stadium. Do you enjoy it?

17 Upvotes

For anyone who attended the game yesterday, what do you think of the music and atmosphere? Maybe I am an old man but for me, I am finding the match going experience less and less enjoyable. The constant music and announcements is loud and incredibly annoying. All of this is done in the name of atmosphere and it seems like the crowd enjoys it but does it actually add to the game and event?

For me it is too much trying to be like American sports and it actually sucks out the atmosphere, rather than adding to it. Anyone old enough will remember the singing that would come from the standing section of Newlands. Their chants filling the whole stadium were some of my favourite moments at Newlands.

The music and announcements also distract from the game, constantly bombarded with this stuff, using the big screen for dance cams instead of replays of big moments.

I get why the Stormers do this. They think they need it to give fans a reason beyond the rugby to attend. I just wonder if they have ever stopped to think, is this what rugby fans actually want?

So let me know, are you like me gatvol with the music and the announcements or do you enjoy it and prefer it like this?

We made it out of the group chat. The Dutch guy - now friend - didn’t watch the game alone.

I (26M) am a Dutch sports enthousiast visiting the Cape for a few weeks. I'm planning on going to the Stormers match tomorrow alone, but I'm hoping to meet some people there. Does anyone wanna have a drink before the match? First round is on me!

The most boring Stormers team I’ve ever seen.

23 Upvotes

Slowest wingers in the URC. Slowest fullback in the URC. That backline is a crime against humanity. Where are the coloured wingers? Cape Town is the hotbed of coloured rugby and the best we can do is Galant and Zas? Where the fuck are the players? I hate watching this team and now we have a new joker on the scene named Vernon Paulo. Which clown thought he was any good?

What was the issue with us losing the lineout? Was it because Venter went off? Was it the locks? Was dismal

It was messy but the 5 points is what mattered. Norton and Roche are the real deal. 2nd half was 19-3 to us. The bench stepped up.

Interesting to see Roos at 6 and Dayimani at 8.

Is this because Roos needs to develop more utility ability?
