Well another weekend I still haven’t seen much ruggers. Only caught the glimpses of the Tah’s match and was pretty pissed by the time I saw the Force match, so cant really add much light on that game. It was all a blur of Cameron Shepherd and Nick “Man-Perm” Cummings.
The weekend started with an upset, [...]

Well, what can you say other than WOW!
What a start to the season.
Highlanders went crazy against the Brumbies in the first 20 mins leading 19-0 with only 28% territory. Then their only All Black (Cowan) left the field with a sore finger (but mullet still intact) and they were lost in the wilderness for the [...]

Crusaders take on kiwi bottom of the table team. Everyone’s predicting a drumming, but against reasonable teams, the Crusaders have been relatively quiet. Reckon they’ll be nervous about injuries again and will be playing conservatively, whereas the Dunedin crew has nothing to loose. On that basis the 3.40-1, odds on Crusaders by less than 12.5 [...]

The Blues have the slimmest of chances of making the semi’s and this weekend will be crucial for them. Blues have an awful track record at House of pain, having only won there once before. Blues scraped through a great game last weekend against the reds, which won’t exactly fill them with joy. Highlanders have [...]

Our first up match is the big grudge match of the weekend, certainly in our household. Baba has a shark’s outfit plus Crusaders hoody and booties. Oh dear.
Although it rips my heart out to say, I can’t see the Sharks pulling a fast one over the Knights-of-the-odd-shaped ball this weekend unless the last 2 weeks [...]

So tomorrow, Reds meet the Force in another Aussie Derby. Force have traditionally thrashed the Reds. Pretty much all Rugbyoracle indicators are going for the Force. Obviously Giteau is out, which is a huge thing for them but even still I’m struggling to find any logic in backing the Reds. They may have had a [...]

So I’ve missed the two most interesting matches already. This time zone thing is rubbish. There should be only one.
So the Stormers managed to get a 9 points deficit on the Chiefs at home, which isn’t bad. I would have gone for the Chiefs based on Stormers’ rotation policy. Their playing-well rotation policy, that is. [...]
