Vodacom Super Rugby 2017
RBS SIX Nations 2017
Hi,
We have 2 NEW SuperBru Pools for all to join!
- The RBS SIX Nations 2017 starts tomorrow (4 February 2017) at 16:25 SA Time, so hurry up and do not delay to register and pick for it!
- Vodacom Super Rugby 2017 starts in about 2 weeks, so for that too!
As of 2016 we have been doing it a bit differently and opened our Pools up to all readers of Rugby-Talk.com, but we encourage you to register as a subsciber on Rugby-Talk.com anyway, as our banter and commenting about our Pools will mostly take place here on the website and not on the SuperBru banter boards! It is so easy to register and such fun to discuss rugby here.
Our SuperBru pools are all lively and taking part in them adds to the spice and rivalry here on Rugby-Talk.com.
To all our recent registered users who have not played SuperBru with us yet, kindly join up and become even deeper entrenched in our community here.
Now get hopping, don’t delay your registrations and also do not delay picking for the first games!
SuperBru’s system has queued a heap of Invitations, so if you do not receive an Invitation, kindly manually apply to the Pools!!
The Pool details are:
Pool Name: Rugby-Talk SIX Nations 2017
Pool Code: deafbike
Pool Name: Rugby-Talk Super Rugby 2017
Pool Code: reedburg
Regards,
Thanks you for the early Six Nations pool, Groot Blou Ballas!
We appreciate all your hard work!

Hi there, yeah been a bit busy, man!
My girlfriend had a hernia operation to boot, apart from my normal committments, so I had to juggle a lot of things to get MOST things done… hahaha
Hope she’s recovering well. Thanks again for all your hard work on the site.
RIP Joost.
Rest in Peace Joost. Was an inspiration to many. Feeling sad especially for his youngsters.

@ Bullscot:
Pretty much a full strength Bulls side.
LIONS media announcement just received:
Elton Jantjies will lead the Emirates Lions against the Stormers at Newlands on Saturday with some familiar faces as well as some new ones in the side that will travel to Cape Town on Friday.
Stalwarts like Jantjies, Malcolm Marx, Franco Mostert, Faf de Klerk, Courtnall Skosan, Rohan Janse van Rensburg and Howard Mnisi will all start for the Lions in the warm-up with some new faces like Marvin Orie and Madosh Tambwe in the starting line-up and Hencus van Wyk on the bench.
Lions captain Warren Whiteley had his wisdom teeth removed this week and could not recover on time.
The Lions will take a squad of 29 to Cape Town before they kick-off their Vodacom Super Rugby campaign on 25 February against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein

@ Scrumdown:
Agree. Can’t wait for 25 Feb. Then the games will begin in earnest.
Stormers flyhalf Brandon Thomson has joined Glasgow Warriors for the next two months.
Thomson has joined Glasgow basically to help out during the Six Nations with regular flyhalf Finn Russell away on Scotland duty. But he says his father is Scottish so if he does well could this turn out to be a longer term deal…
First Huw Jones, probably Oli Kebble and now Brandon Thomson seems like Newlands has become a nursery for us
