The local derbies you cant afford too slip your home games. You just win them no matter what because for the Sharks it was double points on offer. I agree we play it tight and my biggest concern is the Stormers coping without a fetcher. Bismarckt and Botes were huge at the breakdowns and we...

When the Lions went to uncostested scrums I just knew they are going to struggle against the Hurricanes. Mitchell still have to learn to Saffer alter his gameplan against the Kiwi sides.

The problem is that both teams are in the same conferense. I had a look overall of all the conferenses and I saw some Aussies are a bit worried about the differenses of quality between them and SA and NZ after round 2. Still early days and mostly derbies, we'll keep this one going. Dont shed a...

Well the Stormers started with Harris and replaced him with Frans Malherbe round about the same time Dr Jannie Doep joined Bismarckt. From then on the Stormers scrum was impressive. I'd love to see the Stormers young guns against the Brutes at this very moment. Have to wait till 31 March, not...

Bulls the form team in SA but they sure had Jouberts help on saturday. I havent seen him this bad before and had two sets of rules for the teams. Brutes got away with murder at the breakdowns while he penalised the Cheetahs no ends. Anyway the Brutes was just to good all over the park on the...

The Sharks scrum dominated the last couple of seasons but I enjoy the first and the tight head the Stormers got and scored the winning penalty from it and the Doep broers were in the Sharks scrum in that last one. Ginga sure as hell lifted his strength and power. For a 20 year old I just hope he...

Glad the Chiefs pulled this one off. The Blues will now travel to SA and face the Stormers and Brutes. The Chiefs vs Saders next week in Napier. I just have a feel the Highlanders have a good change to upset the Saders tomorrow morning. They looked pretty organised against the Chiefs, played...

This lot will be in the Stormers match 22 this weekend.

OK I'll throw in some Stormers young stock: Siya Kolisi http://www.thestormers.co.za/profiles.asp?id=1071 Position: Loose Forward Physical: 1.87m, 101kg Born: 16 June 1991, Eastern Cape Province: WP WP Caps: 19 WP Points: 25(5t) WP Debut: 2011 v Lions Siya is another of the WP young guns...

New season after a WC tournament means a lot of retired or NH pensioners brings a lot of new players to SupeRugby. Which ones impressed you so far?

My pleasure Boet. Maties started way back experimenting in their koshuisliga with the ELVs and I updated Oom Lee with all the info during that time. I'll update this as it go along.

Maties and Cambridge Boarding schools will test out new rules to help sort out scrums and a few other grey areas to try and speed up the game (This is pretty fresh from Stellenbosch and I cant find any english version or dont want to translate it via Google and sound like an arse hole) Die...

Yep they sure will have the backing from Saru. Great timing and wise move from Taranaki.

Spoony is in this regard like my Mrs. Our biggest family fights usually are when the Brutes play teams from Aus and NZ. Her hatred regarding the Brutes also go back to Naas days and she'll support any teams playing the Brutes. My blood is way to green to not support SA teams against the others...
