Seabelo Senatla bags hat-trick as Stormers hammer Zebre

Seabelo Senatla scored a hat-trick of tries as the Stormers claimed a comfortable 55-7 United Rugby Championship victory over Zebre Parma in Stellenbosch.
The hosts had a bonus point wrapped up by the 23rd minute at the Danie Craven Stadium, as Manie Libbok, Damian Willemse, Leolin Zas and Senatla all touched down in a blistering start.
Scarra Ntubeni added the fifth shortly before half-time, with Libbok converting all but one of those tries.
Erich Cronje stopped the rot by going over for Zebre early in the second period, but Zas and Ntubeni added second scores and Senatla completed his treble, while the visitors had Asaeli Tuivuaka red-carded for a brazen swinging arm to Zas’ head prior to the home side’s final two tries.

Ominous for Italy. I reckon the All Blacks have got their timing spot on for this world cup. Hard to see them not make the final and I suspect they'll make it four take homes of the Webb-Ellis trophy.
Go to commentsWith what he has said, he needs to be held account able for, to be held up to the same standard as every other coach, but I can't see how anyone would think that anything that comes out of his mouth is worth listening to or is to be taken seriously. Anyone who read this would have to look back at their interactions with Eddie and perceive them in new light. I can't help but feel that he's like one those high profile celebrities that go down, that what we see as the on-TV-coach persona is really now how Eddie treats everybody. He's basically a conman. The shameful thing is the way he does it, how he thinks he's too good for the people downunder, how he ruthlessly blames his players and their leadership for not being able to hang in there in games. How his ideas are too good for the home of running rugby, q I would say show some humility Eddie, to the people in the game, to the fans, to rugby, and you can still save it, but we can see here that after last week he has doubled down. There is no chance of a eureka moment of realization dawning on him.
