Looking at the games played this year, it is amazing how superrugby changed from the game we saw in the 90’s.

We had some great running rugby those days. It was such great running rugby that even the Stormers could not qualify to take part in the spectacle for a year. After the Stormers return rugby has gone downhill gradually.

The Blues chose quite a horrible day weather wise to play at 100mph
They are going for the 38 points

Ja, and he is extremely mobile for a big guy, just check him out, always available to take the ball up, good man this.

@ Pietman:
think he made an AB squad once, but fell away again, maybe due to injury.. if he gets it right he is very destructive
will check his wiki page

Weather is foul!

@ nga puhi:
yep, memory still works 😀

In May 2012 he was selected for the All Blacks[5][6] to train for the three Test series against Ireland. At over 130 kg, he was the heaviest member of the All Black squad.

@ MacroBull:

Can we expect Puma to throw the camo out with the pink next year and produce a Brazil like away jersey for the 2015 Bulls?

Pietman on 11 July 2014 at 10:14 am

Bring back rucking!

No I don’t, but just thought it might be a good idea to greet GBS with the same one!

Yeah, hope my team can reverse that unlucky “last match” omen, we’ve lost out last round-robin games for the last six years or so!

We started sabbaticals long before NZ did…..only ours lasted for 12 months and we gave the whole team off

The way Victor was arguing with the ref, one might have been excused for thinking that it was a soccer match….and the score also reminded us of a soccer match
