At the 2nd Day of the tournament, New Zealand and South Africa advanced all the way to the final, with Fiji beating England in the 3rd place play-off.

    Helllooooooooooo

    Back from a very successful afternoom of rugby meeting!

    Basically what it amounts to is that Rugby-Talk will be one of the sponsors of a Club Rugby Day on 22 February (2nd week of Super Rugby), where 18 Club Games games will be played, by giving media coverage and exposure to this Rugby Day.

    … and there might be a Radio Station involved too.

    Rugby-Talk will set up and handle not only the Rugby Day, but also the 2 Super Rugby Live Game Articles of the Saturday morning and the 2 Super Rugby Live Game articles late afternoon and evening, from the Rugby Day venue, interact and interview the Captains, Coaches and Sponsors of these Clubs… and have them answer Rugby-Talk reader questions, live.

    Rugby-Talk will also tap into the Sponsors and Suppliers of this Rugby Day, who will take Banner and other Adverts on Rugby-Talk for the day… and earn revenue out of these Adverts.

    Rugby-Talk will be presented as spoonsor, might even get some Radio Air Time and Rugby-Talk will be regularly punted on the Rugby Day PA system…. a lot of new readers and subscribers to Rugby-Talk will be garnered in this manner.

    Rugby-Talk will run a competition at the Rugby Day, by means of Facebook and Rugby-Talk interaction, and a sponsored prize will be given to a winner, given by one of the Liquor sponsors / suppliers of the event.

    Whilst the Rugby Day gets exposure, so too will Rugby-Talk, whilst earning some money for doing it and networking and connecting with Sponsors, which could be valuable in the future too.

    At the same time, Club Rugby in the Platteland gets valuable exposure!

    So, what do you think?

    Exciting stuff congratulations GBS well done, good to see you doing something for the club rugby there, what are the words I think something like this ek hoop alles loop klopdisselboom

  • 76

    Great GBS, hope you make a lot of Moolah, you deserve some rewards for the endless hours you put in here.

    I see on facebook there is a place where you can check how many hours you were busy on FB. One guy said he was shocked to see he spend 25 days 21 hours and 56 minutes on FB. A lady replied that she were more than 115 days active on FB. I am scared to check. But you might beat her here on R-T. Time to get something back.

    To Puma and cane welcome back.
    All other returnees that i missed you too welcome.

    My team is the underdog of SA in my eyes, i think i will try and stay calm and accept the crumbs on offer. This is not a hands up from me but i honestly wont bet any thing of big value on a Bulls winning year. I will enjoy the ride. And i will hope to see some great new ideas from my team.

    With no new coaching staff that might stay a dream.
