    How long will Quade get?

    yellow for me, was reckless but BB ducked into it too. Bad feeling he will get two weeks and the Reds will be stuffed. Meanwhile the stormers player who only got a penalty tonight will get nothing for a worse tackle. God I hope I'm wrong, Reds played some magic rugby today against a fired...

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    well, what a game. Very very proud of the boys. Hats off for the gracious jersey to Stirlo, hard to dislike guys who just beat you when they show class like that.

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    The Canes win has made the job a lot tougher. But in the event we win, it is quite possible we will have four tries along with it. Muggleton must be tearing his hair out, but at least they keep sides on their toes. Oh how Id love to see the boys add a Stormers win to their year of scaring...

    Reds v Waratahs Rd 18 2012

    Nice post WJ.

    Adam Freier - Retiring

    For me the calibre of the man has been summed up by two things, his great outlook on life so well communicated be it spoken or by pen, and the fact someone so small for the position managed to achieve so much success.

    Waratahs - Positivity thread

    Mitchells looking good. Barnes was pushing the ball around hard last week. Those could combine into a very big positivity!

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    But PB that is exactly my point, so in that we agree perfectly, the Stormers need to lift their game. They are a conservative side playing a mercurial side that can play anything from woeful to superb in any 5 minutes. Fail to dominate and they could find themselves tries down and in a hole...

    Brumbies v Blues Round 18

    Sounds to me like they want to announce Kirwan asap. Ath.

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    PB I think you're missing my point, it is the prospect of the Stormers playing conservative rugby that led to me making the point. Ath.

    Lol, I did say it sounds crazy, and can not will.

    Quade Cooper's defence this year

    I wouldn't drop McCabe at all myself. McCabe made that evident for me in the Brumbies Tahs game. All game he played a floating defender there to shut down emerging threats. That is huge for us when faced with players like carter/nonu or worse linebreak wise cruden/nonu. I can't see how...

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    Because I think their attack is weak PB, no more, no less. Oh I daresay I could dig up stats, but the simple truth is I think their attack is limited. I'm not going to get dragged into saying the Rebs are better, they aren't, not this year. But I do think they can win. If it makes you feel...

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    Rebels under rated. yep. Stormers over rated. yep. Rebels favourites? No, and shouldn't be - but I believe they are capable of winning this game. They are also capable of being smashed as we all know, but I am not writing them off. I think most people are. But then I happen to think...

    And yes Kingi deserves more gametime.

    Stormers vs Rebels Rnd 18 Super Rugby 2012

    I can see the Rebels winning this crazy as it sounds, the stormers struggle in attack, and the Rebels, even without Beale and JOC (James O'Connor) are a good team and for me the Stormers are over rated. Oh I don't doubt the bookies will have Stormers at big odds, but I think people keep insisting on...

    Quade Cooper's defence this year

    Paradox, our forwards were crap alright but Quades brainless play that day drove me to distraction. Looking a lot more collected now.

    No more SBW in black

    Sorry to see him go, good guy and one of the finest athletes I have ever seen. His can do anything if you put your mind to it attitude is inspirational.

    Will the Reds make the Final?

    Oh I agree they deserve it BB, just an observation on their form of recent games.

    Will the Reds make the Final?

    I have my reservations about the Bulls this year, they have looked brittle and I would rate Sharks, Canes and Reds ahead of them for current form. Not sure the Lions have enough in the tank to beat them though.

    Quade Cooper's defence this year

    Quade has always been a good tackler when he wanted to be, particularly in the chase, though he still tackles upper body too often for me. It is exciting to see him tackle properly more often tho! Play wise he seems to be picking his moments more selectively. That will stand him in very good...
