Super Rugby – Rugby-Talk Super Rugby 2019
Hi,
We have 2 NEW SuperBru Pools for all to join!
- The Varsity Cup 2019 starts TODAY, so hurry up and join up for the competition. I have left Pool creation slightly late again… what’s new!!
- Super Rugby 2019 starts in just less than 2 weeks, so please join up for the competition.
Immediately also make your picks for Round 1 of the Varsity Cup Tournament!
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.

Edinburgh have retained the 1872 Cup after a strong second-half performance was enough to put Glasgow Warriors to the sword at a blustery Scotstoun.
Leading 6-3 at the half, the capital side capitalised on robust forward play and set-piece dominance to eventually grab a well-deserved win on the road, with captain Stuart McInally snatching the only try of the contest.
The victory now means Edinburgh have lifted the trophy in four of the last five seasons, whilst the four league points gained keeps the capital side well within the race for both the Guinness PRO14 Finals Series and Heineken Champions Cup qualification.
Pete Horne will play his 150th game for Glasgow Warriors in today’s 1872 Cup first leg at BT Murrayfield.
Pete Horne made his Warriors debut against Ulster nine years ago and has 343 points to his name to date, including 20 tries.
The 29-year-old has represented Scotland 38 times during his Warriors tenure and started Glasgow’s 2015 Guinness PRO12 Final win.
He starts again this weekend, at inside centre with Nick Grigg outside of him in midfield.
His younger brother George starts at scrum-half with Adam Hastings his half-back partner, both fresh from signing new contracts with the club this week.

Head Coach Gregor Townsend today named six personnel changes to the starting Scotland side to face South Africa in this Saturday’s Autumn Test match at BT Murrayfield (17 November, kick-off 5.20pm, 7.20pm SA Time).
The home side last faced the Springboks in the Pool rounds of Rugby World Cup 2015, losing 36-14 at St James’ Park in Newcastle, with the 2010 Autumn Tests the most recent home success on a day where stand-off Dan Parks kicked all of Scotland’s points to win 21-17.
The return of Glasgow Warriors centre Huw Jones is the only change to the back division, with Scotland’s pack featuring the remaining five.
