Super Rugby 2014: Weekend Teams – Round 7 (Final Revision)

Published 27 March 2014 | By grootblousmile

It is Round 7 of Super Rugby 2014 this weekend! We have 6 games in Round 7, with 2 games on Friday and 4 games on Saturday.

The Lions, Toyota Cheetahs & Western Force have bye weekends.

In June / July 2014 the Antipodian teams will catch up in played games with the South African counterparts, when the South African sides sit out for 1 Round.

The Combined Log will therefore be skewed for the majority of the competition and one has to question why individual countries are allowed to start such a long competition ahead of it’s rivals. In 2013 the Australian sides started a week early, but at least they had the excuse that they needed an extra week in the middle of the year to prepare for the British & Irish Lions series, which they lost.

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:41 pm

9 to win
125

grootblousmile on 27 March 2014 at 2:41 pm

9 Needed off 12 balls… 1 wicket remains
126

Ben on 27 March 2014 at 2:42 pm

Het Steyn die reeks gedrop daar?
127

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:42 pm

Juicy full toss to start with

SA win by 6 runs
135

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:45 pm

And thats it, eish, that was too close for comfort. Now lets see England struggle – if only to make our route to the finals a tad easier. We need all the help we can get
136

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:46 pm

Was that the most embarrassing win in the Protea’s 20/20 history?
137

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:46 pm

Right, back to work!
138

Ben on 27 March 2014 at 2:46 pm

Kan jy glo, ons is bly om te wen teen Nederland, hehe.

Maar wie weet, vorige toernooie was ons gunstelinge, dalk kan ons hierdie jaar strompel na die finaal?
139

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 2:47 pm

Tahir MOTM. Well deserved
140

Gumboots on 27 March 2014 at 2:48 pm

Stealing a win… Well done Holland – well played…
141

Gumboots on 27 March 2014 at 2:53 pm

…for a team that wants to win the world cup – just not good enough… So se ons kaptein…
142

grootblousmile on 27 March 2014 at 3:00 pm

So, basically the Blomme need to beat England to end in the top 2 in the Group…
143

Ben on 27 March 2014 at 3:02 pm

Sal Parnell inbring vir Tsotosbe, hy kan kolf ook.
144

grootblousmile on 27 March 2014 at 3:03 pm

143 @ Ben:
Parnell is in an Indian Court today, stemming from Drug Charges which goes back to 2012, during an IPL season.
145

Ben on 27 March 2014 at 3:06 pm

144: o gits, watter boulers is daar nog, waar is Abbott, MaCLaren en Rudolph vd Merwe?
146

gunther on 27 March 2014 at 3:30 pm

Lops must be looking over his shoulder.

His bowling is nowhere and he fields like a landmine victim.
147

Bullscot on 27 March 2014 at 4:36 pm

142 @ grootblousmile:
As long as that game is a completed one, lets hope the weather for that one is good, we could be struggling if that one ends as a no result…
148

Bullscot on 27 March 2014 at 4:39 pm

Sri Lanka doing well at the moment against England, batting first 105/1 after 13 overs and 2 balls
149

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 4:49 pm

Well, if you think we’re bad – just take a look at the England/Sri Lanka match. Englands fielding is simply horrendous – worst display of catching I have seen in a very long while.
150

Just For Kicks on 27 March 2014 at 5:34 pm

At least we know that if England play like this against us, we have a chance!!! I think, right now, it must be harder being an English fan than a SA fan!
