Week one of the Super Rugby trials is already done and dusted. Anyone reading into the form of teams in trials surely must realize…
Last year was jam-packed on the rugby front to the point that even I, a confessed rugby addict, found it difficult to muster up…
“The all black for instance, win something like 90 per cent of their matches when they are leading at half-time.”
I think you’ll find the All Blacks generally win 90 per cent of their games in general, let alone a halftime lead. bit of a flawed stat there…nonetheless was a good win by the tahs
SPIRO: Horwill, Genia, Cooper: They're baaccckkk!! And Kurtley's out
The announcement came around the same time as Craig Thomson faced about 140 charges. Coincidence I think not… if you want to get everyones attention away from something, why not hit them in the sweet spot of the activity they love? Coincidence I think not.
No different to the timing of the election 1 day before the Thomson stuff broke.
MARK GERRARD: 'Disappointed athletes were thrown in deep end'
Not sure of the whole ‘points victory’ Toomua and Lealiifano had over Cooper. Granted you’ve already made it a 2 on 1 battle in essence. Hands down the Brumbies were the better team on the day and deserved to win, but alot of that came from their forward dominance.
Forwards need to go forward – hence the name.
Brumbies ready for next Super challenge
As soon as I read the headline of this article (despite it being related to cricket, I just knew it was you behind it. I’ll admit I’m not sure I’ve ever watched a cricket player I have admired more than Kallis. A constand thorn for any opposition side. Surprised you hadn’t mentioned about Faf in there. Still early days but looks like he’s got the goods with bat in hand and makes the ladies swoon at the same time. As you mentioned, the only weakness in the side looks to be spin so if you manage to include a master of that then it’s a complete team.
Australia has just come out of it’s golden period so I say lap up the glory days while they last, the unwavering form of this cricket team prove that all the allocades are well deserved.
The Proteas are on a roll
Interesting you say that with regard to the line-out jumping proposition. He’s actually only marginally taller than Pocock (Pocock at 184cm vs Gill at 185cm accordingly to Wiki).
Another option is to someone groom Pocock into a hooker which on face value, sounds ridiculous, but he’s the same height as Stephen Moore and proven to be as strong as an Ox
Is Liam Gill the new David Croft?
Thoroughly enjoyable read – you’ve got a way with words. Just lay off the sauce-loving props…we are people too

got any indication on what you see the NSW equivalent side being? Obviously Tom Carter would be captain and coach but otherwise…
