Preview, Review and all things rugby
This is going to be a massive game and probably the game to watch this weekend. If the conditions are better than what they were against Scotland this game is going to be a thriller. The English who bounced back against Scotland after losing to France in their first game are coming in onto this... Continue Reading →
This is going to be a very exiting game because Wales is a team that relies on their defense and does not want the bulk of the possession. France on the other hand relies on a very open game to give their teams elusive backs space to run. Wales are going to bring a very... Continue Reading →
This is the bottom of the table clash, but by no means do I think it is not going to entertaining. Italy lost their previous game against France, but I believe that they where the better team in the second half. They finally attacked with some intensity and they found gaps in the French defense.... Continue Reading →
This is going to be one hell of a battle. The Chiefs who is probably the best team in the competition this far taking on the Brumbies the best team in Australia. The Chiefs is coming with a very strong team and will look to dominate the game in every asset. They will want to... Continue Reading →
This game is coming at a very bad time for the Rebels and a great time for the Sharks. The reason for me saying that is because the Rebels finally won their first game and now they are playing one of the form teams of the first 3 rounds. The Sharks on the other hand... Continue Reading →
Both these teams have won their previous games and although the Crusaders won by 17 and the Highlanders only by 1 this game will be closer than you think. In the first few rounds of the competition I read the Crusaders team sheet; it is impossible not to think that they are going to win... Continue Reading →
Props: Steven Kitshoff: He played a very good game and was very important in their win and I believe that the captaincy helped him. His stats: Carries-5 Meters-5 Tackles-8 Missed tackles-1 Penalties conceded-1 Turnovers won-1. He only missed one tackle and won 3 turnovers there are not a lot of props that can do that....

This game was played by two very different teams with two very different strategies. The Lions wanted to speed the game up from the beginning and bring the altitude into play and the Stormers wanted to slow the game down and make their energy last longer. At the end of the day the Stormers came... Continue Reading →
This was a very competitive game and I believe that the better side came away with the victory. Brumbies: They had a great set piece and that is where most of their points came from. In the beginning of the game the they defended very well and were able to get crucial turnovers at the... Continue Reading →
This game did not deliver what I expected but it was not because of the player not playing good rugby. The Sharks was very unfortunate with the injury of Thomas du Toit just before the game and that continued losing Mapimpi and Chamberlain early in the first half. The Canes continued with their of the... Continue Reading →
