Stormers clinical in bonus-point win over Jaguares
By Ben Spratt
The Stormers came from behind to cruise to a bonus-point 35-8 win over the Jaguares in Super Rugby on Friday.
The South African side claimed a third consecutive victory, but they trailed their conference rivals early on as a superb move saw Bautista Delguy deservedly open the scoring.
However, a group of Jaguares players soon got lost under a high ball and Daniel du Plessis pounced to score, turning the tide of the match.
The sides traded penalties before the break and the Jaguares kept pushing, but Siya Kolisi crossed for the first points of the second half, before Herschel Jantjies dummied through for a third home try.
And it was replacement Justin Phillips who secured the bonus point and wrapped up a comfortable win for the Stormers two minutes from time.

The Top 14 isn't profitable. Google "Toulon rugby deficits" and read the rugbyrama article from 24 July 2024. Lots of clubs losing money.

Borthwick has obviously earned the right to expect people to look elsewhere when the sort of personal problems likely at the heart of Jones' departure occur but it's hard to believe he's, if not entirely to blame, at least most of the problem.
