Semi's for Stormers?

What a game we saw on Saturday, easily the best first half performance we've seen from the Stormers this season so far. But it is worrying that the Stormers allow the opposition to get back into the game in the final 20 minutes.

To me it looked like fatigue because of all the running they did in the first 40 but it's probably something alot deeper. Are the Stormers running on empty?

A bold question I know, but think about it. They've played the same brand of rugby with the same personel for most of the season (with a change here or there obviously) and it's only a matter if time before fatigue sets in.

Here's the conundrum for Rassie Erasmus: Does he keep playing his starting fifteen for the next five games and risk losing them for the semi-finals through injury or does he rest key players and lose a few matches?

Either way, it's going to be tough for the Cape outfit to reach the semi's. I hope I'm wrong, but that's how it looks! at the moment.
