Sounds like a decent plan... Will head down that way shortly.

Plenty of chats with Stormers fans this morning, would be good to find someone in green!

Not heard anything, but there's an Irish pub called The Ferryman in the V&A about 15 mins walk from the stadium so I'd wager that's a decent bet

I picked one up in the lower tier pretty much on the halfway. If there's a bung going in together in happy to get another - they rather cheap!

Just landed - Any plans to meet up pre game tomorrow?

Did people decide where they're sitting yet?
Heard tale of a supporters page on Facebook where it was being discussed but can't find it.

Strictly off topic as this is a travel thread but,

DHL Stormers v Connacht
DHL Stadium, Cape Town – KO 15.00 IRE & UK / 16.00 ITA & SA
Referee: Mike Adamson (SRU, 72nd league game)
AR 1: Sam Grove-White (SRU) AR 2: Hollie Davidson (SRU)
TMO: Ben Blain (SRU)

My sympathies, should be Hollie on the whistle.

Looks like tickets are live on their site. Not expensive

Not predicting a sellout for this one. I'd say if freebies don't appear you'll get them on the day. I think it was 3 quid for the Cheetahs game last time but Stormers could be treble that ...

If anyone is around tomorrow morning at 9.30am (Tuesday May 9th) pop to the Clan Entrance at The Sportsground. Will give the lads a good send off on their trip to SA.

I was booking it until I remembered I will have the pleasure of having 2 auditors instead onsite on Thursday and Friday so that's the trip put to bed.
Murty's will be hopping on Saturday so get in early if you are thinking of heading in. Also if anyone is free tomorrow morning we might try get a crowd at The Sportsground in the morning to see the lads off.
Once I know what time I will put up posts on the usual spots.

I know a few Clan are heading over.
Cape Town is a great spot, we had spent a week there while on a tour a few years ago (Cheetahs and Kings).
I was seriously thinking of this one, KLM to Cape Town via Amsterdam on Thursday, back Sunday evening....Accommodation very reasonable too!!
Unfortunately (lucky for my wallet) Work blackballed me this morning :(
Will be going to HQ to watch this match..
Something tells me there will be a good Crowd on Rabbitts :P

Don't post here much anymore but I'll be going :)
Capetown is a great spot for the most part so if people could tie it into a last minute city break I would really recommend that.
