Currie Cup result: Pumas outclass error-ridden Stormers
The Pumas next host defending champions Griquas on Friday afternoon while the Stormers XXIII travel to Pretoria to face the struggling Vodacom Bulls XV.
In Mbombela, South Africa, the Pumas secured a convincing 29-7 victory over the Stormers XXIII in the Currie Cup match held on Saturday. The Pumas demonstrated their dominance with four tries, showcasing resilience despite the Stormers' early aerial challenges. Jimmy Stonehouse's side took the lead early with a penalty from Nevaldo Fleurs, and the Pumas responded with a flurry of tries in the second half.
Thomas Bursey and Banie Britz both scored tries before Jan-Henning Campher and JJ Scheepers added to the Pumas' tally. These tries were converted by Fleurs, who also kicked a penalty. The Pumas' strong performance indicates a late surge in their efforts for the playoffs, while the Stormers will aim to regain momentum before their next match against the struggling Vodacom Bulls XV in Pretoria.
