top 8

Super Rugby has been a success to date not just because of Kiwi Power.

Oz Teams SA Teams and now the new 2 new teams Japan and Pumas expand a great Comp

If you want NZ die Hards have no one else take your ball and go play in your own backyard

And then your NZ franchises implode with no TV coverage except local stations

Don’t forget it’s Super southern Rugby lol

The truth is Southern Hemisphere has been the envy of North with a good quality Super rugby Comp to date

Yes it’s not perfect however fine tune the end year play off maybe knock out season only for the teams forget confrence style format

Teams that play at end of year only the top 8 positioned teams based on highest tries count not points

Play on nuteral grounds NZ OZ SA Argentina Japan share the love on venues

Sudden death for the final 8 then top 4 winners are the teams in finals

1 play 2 winners to GF then usual end year 3 play 4 winners play losers of 1/2 for GF spot

GF winners Super Rugby Champs look know it’s not how it’s done however what a difference for a super running game

Just a solution realise not everyone will agree however just love the game enjoy Guys

Super Rugby needs more teams - five more, in fact

Great to see all the Banter before the big clash on Saturday in off to a wedding for a top rugby bloke and his lovely bride to be hope there is a TV close to the reception
The coaches have started the mind games and the talking and soon it will be about the players on the paddock that’s where it counts going to be a cracker go the wallabies this is back to the wall stuff against the double back to back World Cup winning mighty ABS
Rugby the winner once again marvellous let the game begin can’t wait for Saturday night in Sydney

What’s got Steve Hansen's goat?

Not sure if I picked the correct forum from commando to super rugby however Realy like the inclusion of sunwolves team Japan and Jaguars Argentine team also Kings SA and the opertunity of the new season.
To be honest we seem to be able to see new countries and enjoy the development and pathways of Sourthen hemisphere rugby in 2016

However the same commentary from the fox team and my favourite rugby guru Greg Martin back on fox sports early days of course before once again we are subjected to his pearls of wisdom in the positives of Australian rugby and the Reds in particular

Would u have thought after World Cup Greg would have a different pathway away from the media after the complaints previously of his usual wilting wall flower negative comments.

Of course it’s my fault to subscribe to the enjoyment of the revamped super rugby competition with fox sports.

I Realy have a hope and belief one day Mr Martin will join the circus in his natural role as a clown and be no longer available to grace our flat screens

Of course it’s just wishful thinking maybe should just cancel my full sports package or last resort mute his wonderfull shock jock voice he loves to hear lol
Just my own personal opinion of course

Five curly questions for Super Rugby Round 4

Have all ready commented on Marto previously in ‘2015 once again confirmed Greg you don’t have to have a long neck to be a goose the bloke is a loose cannon and has lost the plot again this time on JC he really needs to retire and get off radio and fox sports
comments like this are to often he runs off at the mouth with his opinion only and the bloke has had more backflips than a Chinese acrobat circus when he talks about his expert rugby guru views no one else can get a word in and the truth is no one really cares about your biased views give us all a rest please Mr Martin there I’m being nice lol

James O'Connor lets fly in long Facebook statement

Great match displaying courage in defence full marks take my hat off to wallabies they displayed effort of guts by the buckets when down to 13 men
Wales had their chances and will feel short changed in this bruising encounter however they failed to breach the magnificent wallaby line and win the match
Not all doom and gloom Wakes still playing QF after horror start to RWC 2015 injury toll before and during the Cup I’m proud of my countrymen and it takes 2 to Tango for a game of no tries it still had us all up on our feet and rugby once again the winner this ugly Welsh exile of choice living on Goldie requires beauty sleep after the late match to look forward to another sleep depraved weekend next week go the Wallabies and Wales seems as a dual Welsh Aussie get to barrack now for 2 teams in QF and hopefully 2 SF then both teams in RWC final stranger things have happened hang on must be dreaming lol and have all ready been in bed for at Least 10 min Sin Bin if I wake the Wifey going to get a red card out for rest of this RWC 2015 and my tournament will be over like the English all ready bags packed and tickets given away lol

Five talking points from the Wallabies' win over Wales

Waugh it is tonight that’s War of course Wales V Australia in pool of death big hurdle for the Wallabies before getting to carried away about favourite tags for RWC 2015
Both teams up for this encounter and once again Rugby the winner can’t wait for the battle to start should be a cracker to be honest all ready ecstatic that both Teams are through to QF and England failed to get out of the pool of death what ever happens next is just a bonus for this Welsh dual Aussie

Wallabies are World Cup favourites: Waugh

Loved the article allways my favourite on the roar and great to see the wallabies get up at HQ mutual RESPECT is the key next week when the clash of the W v W teams go head to Head next Sat at now the English Twickers graveyard where both teams have done the business.
Looking forward to the action and Wales are going to be Up for it and allready have displayed they are not easy beats realise you are probably right in your statement England lost the game not Wales win however a team is only as good as you let them play and Wales never say die attitude was refreshing to see
To be honest as a welsh man by choice living on the Goldie able to relax knowing both teams are in the QF but when the lads go head to head it should be a cracker and not a game to put a bet of confidence on to what team is going to get the group winner Pathway avoiding the ABS for me as a Welsh Aussie whatever happens going to enjoy and still have a smile on my face at the end of the night

SPIRO: Brilliant Wallabies boot England out of World Cup

Hi Brett let the games begin m88 good thought provoking article

Michael Cheika’s coached and Steve Moore passionate Wallabies has a great opertunity to win the pool of death to go all the way to RWC Final 2015 and meet NZ im final have allways said over many years only one team in the world has the belief and the wood on the all blacks that’s the Wallabies
Also had a welsh exile downunder Wales can still be absolute nuisance to the English and pull out a runner up spot can’t wait for the weekend and the fantastic world stage of rugby bring it on boyo

Time to believe in the Wallabies' selections

Hi redsfan1 yes the past results have been in fairness to the Wallabies however you must admit they have been very interesting score lines not a great point margin to the Wallabies so in RWC 2015 should be a good encounter then to be honest as a welsh exile by choice living in OZ hope both teams get through the pool of death beating the Poms in their backyard
After losing a quality full back in Leigh is bad news as he is one of the best kickers in the game and very hard to replace however think Wales can give anyone a run for their money on the day so looking forward to RWC let the games begin gentlemen

Wales can't take a World Cup trick

Interesting Comments from Chris and rest of the forum yes first up tackles are crucial however hard to coach defenders against the ER Factor StrongER fastER BettER players it’s not only second rows require to tackle bit tough on the Rows they worked hardER to be in Tackle contention in first place what about the Aussie players in D they were missing in action
As for what shoulder to position defenders you can’t allways position yourself on inside shoulder as the speedstER will burn you every time on the outside at least if you stand on outside shoulder you can make the attacker run into heavy traffic cutting out attacking options wide and dictate the D
Good example the great Aussie Cattle red or true blue Dog is king of getting cattle or sheep to run where they need them to go no different to the concept of rugby D before cutting the attackers down with some bite in the contact
So let Aussie Players become cattle dogs not wallabies and get that D Sorted out for RWC 2015

To win the World Cup, Wallaby locks need to learn to tackle

Really do not understand the risks taken with not enough front row players named for RWC what has J Hanson done he should be on plane also the row is a gamble with 2 players Simmons injury Douglas fitness and past injury gambles tight 5 looking dodgy if players are injured then look out
Cooper picked really ? Michael to be honest also fan of Will G also injury cloud understand the club international pair less risk would have been White and Toom the Brumbies any way it looks like a rehab list not a RWC squad
The platform from forwards at line out and scrum so important must win your own hope I’m wrong really want Wallabies and Wales to get out pool of death

Is Michael Cheika fearless or reckless?
