Hardly, if Heyneke stays true to form and cherry-picks Saffers from the NH who were a part of the 2007 RWC team.

A bit uncalled for Franklind, and a bit of a stupid comment in my opinion!

Jake ball rugby can only take you so far. Tahs v Saders final would be entertaining.

Bollocks to that. I call it as I see it. SA get another side because of money - not rugby quality. Exhibit A the game just now.

At the risk of repeating myself:
All together now: C'mon Brumbies, c'mon, c'mon/ c'mon Brumbies c'mon... (repeat ad nauseum).
Pretty sure you'd know the tune, just gotta get down with the lyrics, dude.........

Very pleased with how we played. We created the much needed space for Reado, Nadolo, McCaw and Matt Todd out wide to run from deep and with pace.
Our tight 5 were excellent at the breakdown.
Whilst the Sharks did not threaten with ball in hand, they are a tough team to play because they are physical at the breakdown and create plenty of turnover opportunities.
But they were plagued by poor kick execution, poor chasing and lacked finesse with ball in hand (couldn't draw and pass for anything tonight).
Loved how we interchanged Slade and Carter at first receiver to vary the attack.
Saders defence was staunch as well, but again there was a real lack of variety in the Sharks attack.

Jesus, don't let the Bok-something's & something-Boks see you say that. There will be blood, or if not blood then lots of spittle.

Super Rugby separate to ability at Test level. They are diluting the standard of the S15 or S18 as it will become.

I hear you, just don't say you weren't given the heads up, the Bok-something/ something-Boks are nothing if not unforgiving.

So THATS how they're rebuilding Cheechee & why it's taking so long, after all he is only one GOAT & has a lot on his plate other than his day job........

And don't forget Waiopehu, Brumbies got a Levin born boy and a former Logan junior in their team so I have to support them, nothing to do with where final would be

Well I was sure wrong about this game being close. The Sharks were absolutely rubbish.
Pretty much all they can take away from that game are the frequent flyer points.
