Los Jaguares (13) 16 / 25 (15) Emirates Lions (Final Score)
So, a Lions win by 9 points, without a bonus point. No Log points for the Jaguares,
Interesting 1st Round of Super Rugby 2019…. 6 AWAY wins, the only HOME win was the drubbing by the Vodacom Bulls on the DHL Stormers, which was a surprize in itself!
The Logs look good for the SA sides…
Bulls on top, followed by the Sharks… and then the rest.
Players of the 1st Round for me, were:
Rosko Specman, Lood de Jager, Duane Vermeulen, Handré Pollard, Marnus Schoeman, Malcolm Marx, Daniel du Preez, Robert du Preez, Akker van der Merwe, Manasa Mataele, Akira Ioane, Braydon Ennor & Etene Nanai-Seturo.
It is early days though… and tough games and Rounds to come.
