Dobson humble despite 6-0 URC win record against White: 'I'm never going to win a World Cup'

Stormers coach John Dobson has downplayed his recent dominance over Bulls counterpart Jake White.

Dobson's Stormers outplayed the Bulls 33-21 in the URC quarter-finals in Cape Town on Saturday.

White was visibly irritated in his post-game press conference when he was reminded that it was their sixth straight URC loss to the Stormers.

"Norman Laker is one of the best defence coaches around ... we really are a collective."

The Stormers coach did acknowledge that Saturday's performance was a step up from their previous triumphs over the Bulls - even better than the 37-27 win in Cape Town on 23 December.

"In the context of our rivalry against the Bulls, it was one of our best. It felt a bit better than December's one, where we got away with those quick tries.
