Any team that can dominate the Pretoria Bulls for 60 minutes like the ACT Brumbies did last weekend is a genuine title threat, Stormers coach Allister Coetzee says.
Coetzee fears the Brumbies are the biggest threat to his side navigating its way through the first half of the season undefeated.
The Stormers, who host the Brumbies at Newlands tomorrow night, have won their opening two games of the Super14.
They play their first six matches in South Africa before having a bye and then a four-week tour of Australasia It's this weekend's match their coach views as the danger one.
The Stormers overcame the NSW Waratahs last week but according to Coetzee, the Brumbies pose a significantly bigger challenge.
''We had a look at the Brumbies' game of last weekend and they led for a lot of that match and not only led, but were in complete control and not many teams can do that at Loftus against the Bulls,'' Coetzee said.
''The Brumbies have a great set piece, they are a very good contesting lineout side, they've got brilliant match winners like Matt Giteau, an exceptional outside centre in Stirling Mortlock and a couple of other Wallabies in there.
''That alone makes them a very dangerous side.''
