2 Minutes to go in the match
So, Reds will win… Tahs wont have time to score, convert and score something again
Hooter goes.. and the Reds get a penalty
Final Score: Reds 25 / 17 Waratahs
Good result actually, no bonus points for tries, Reds win and the Waratahs get ZERO Log Points
Well done Reds.
OK, so so far only the Blues farked my Bru for the weekend… 4 from 5 on Bru… 2 games to come today
Jake’s Brumbies looks the Aussie team this year. None of the others look even close to the Brumbies.
pakistan 9/0 lunch day 2
99 @ grootblousmile:
I am 1 from 4…. 😯 Need some serious catching up…hehe.
So, Reds have won 1, lost 1, Brumbies have won 2 on the trot, Waratahs had a bye and now a loss, Rebels lost 1 and won 1…. and maybe later tonight we can say the same about the Force.
103 @ grootblousmile:
So far the Brumbies look by far the best Aussie team.
103 @ grootblousmile:
Early days… but yes I predicted before the start of the season that the Brumbies might win the Conference there
No use looking at the OVERALL Log, SuperSport…. the freegin Aussie sides started a week early!
It will appear skewed till end of June somewhere, when the SA & NZ sides catch up that extra week….
105 @ grootblousmile:
They look confident and well prepared. Looking like a well coached team and they all seem a real happy bunch of guys, which makes it it easier. I wish them well under Jake, so far he has done very well with them. With Pocock there this season as well, think they will top their conference this year, which they almost done in their first year under Jake. All the best to the Brumbies.
106 @ grootblousmile:
I know it makes it a little awkward to read the log each week. Then it is all the Aussie teams a week ahead except Tahs which only started this week. Can work it out though as we go along.
Okay going finally now to clean the pool. Back later for the Sharks/Cheetahs game.
Cheers see you all on the Sharks/Cheetahs thread later.
@ Puma:
Is it awkward seeing aussies on top….long my it last 😆
How are you Puma?
@ grootblousmile:
I also got 4 from 5 but tahs stuffed me up!
@ grootblousmile:
Symptoms from the strongest conference!!!
112 @ Wallabie.:
Hello Walla,
Bwahahaha!
Friend, your 5 Sides do not really inspire… Aussie will have no more than 1 side in the Top 6 after ALL the regular rounds are played.
I suspect though that the Force will beat the Southern Kings tonight… with ease.
By far the worst side in Super Rugby 2013 will be the Southern Kings, by a country mile. But that suits the other 4 South African sides, because they will get 10 Log Points each from their 2 games against the Southern Kings, whilst the New Zealand sides would have to all beat each other to a pulp, home and away to get Log points.
Quite frankly, I’m not fazed by any of the Aussie sides.
@ grootblousmile:
No wurries that you are unfazed….! Bulls to collect 20 points from their own easiest conference hence your lack of concern! 😆
I think the Aussie conference is going to upset a few saffa sides
The Tah’s rugby team. Good on paper shit on grass
