Very thin in the backline indeed. Gee the Sharks need to think about their backline depth for next year's S14.

That is not advisable. He is in England. Get a Pom to do it. They are the only ones who speak English. :fishing

Paarl you might create the odd Bok down there by you need to be more concerned to keep people like Francis in the Cape. Why the heck was he allowed to go and you get a carthorse like de Waal in? Hougaard, Steenkamp and now Francis to the Bulls? Someone should lose their job over that. Anyway...

Surely the Aussie comment SWB dropped was just a tactic aimed at pushing the price the NZRU will pay for him...

It's more like the Irish and Welsh Lions with a Token Englishman and Scotsman thrown in

Good Wallaby performance but the Baabaas were terrible. It was obvious that McCallister hadn't played ten in ages (the two big hits on SBW were a result of Luke selling him to the defense with poor passes). So I think there isn't much you can learn from this except: 1. James Horwill can still...

Can't see Alexander on bench come 3N. If Baxter goes pop you're farked.

Bliss. We've done a couple of weekends without little Ms Blue, a seven year old negotiator par excellence. Enjoy.

Fantastic news. Hope it happens. Seems unlikely but will be great news. Enjoyed the rugby last time around and without the ELV's to get used to this time around and some of the bigger names around it should be very good viewing.

Yeah I think it's a case of saying he wants to be part of an exciting young side that's on the way up and be a part of that. Maybe he doesn't have faith in Hickey?

I think it's great and maybe he deserved a start just for that. Lions used him in the Super 14 as an impact player and to good effect. This game could be a cracker. Although on the whole the Lions weren't great in the S14, they usually started games well and theybeat the Canes and almost beat...

Joubert a flake? Most in SA would say he has been our best fullback. I would agree. That was always a huge problem for Joost.

Boks scored 8 tries to three in the series. Kicked just over 40% or something as ridiculous. Yet we lost. It still hurts thinking about it. I was there when Guscott kicked the drop. A few people around me actually cried and they weren't all women. I still feel sick when I think about it.

A Lions tour thread turns into a Reds Tahs shitfest. :o :lmao: :thumb

Hey. I'm Strayan. I have the paperwork to prove it. I had to travel to Paramatta to get the deed done. Three horses died on the way and the natives in Parra tried to sell me an Eels membership when I got there. I earned my right to hate League. Now leave me alone. Soneeee, sonnnnnnnneeeeee. O0

Soneeeee, soneeeeeeeeeeeee, soneeeeeeeee :)

The one with some Blue.

Mainly players from Kimberley - Griekwas and a few from the Falcons. Usually prop up the Currie Cup although they won the Vodacom Cup, I think? To put things in perspective - they provide players to the Cheetahs. Two to be exact.

Unfortunately the NH fans will always talk of the Super 14 rugbny as "touch rugby", "fairy rugby" etc becuase they read Stephen Jones in the Times and have never actually watched much of it. They are just caught in a totally disillusioned state. Intersting was how Peter Hewat cleverly avoided...

Lions 37 - Royal XV - 25. What stuttering start from the Lions that was. They only really pulled that one out the fire in the last ten and if it wasn't for O'Gara they might have suffered a very embarrassing loss against a bunch of nobodies. The Lions set piece was solid bit that was to be...
