Preview, Review and all things rugby
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 →
This was not a very interesting game to watch and to be honest I almost fell asleep just before half time. The Rebels did however come away with the win like I predicted. The conditions was not ideal for running rugby but that was what made the Rebels win at the end of the day.... Continue Reading →
This was a very scrappy game and I don't know why because the conditions was much better than in the Rebels vs Waratahs game. The Crusaders came away with the win but it was because of the very bad decision the coach made. The Crusaders played a good game pouncing on all the mistakes by... Continue Reading →
Another South-African derby, but it is not as good a game as it would have been previous seasons. The Stormers is another undefeated team and as far as I know the only team yet to concede any points. The lions got of to a rocky start against the Jaguares, but got back on track with... Continue Reading →
The Brumbies is the only team in the Aussie conference that actually have a chance of making the playoffs. They are playing a Highlanders team that last week still were rusty which will be gone this game. This is going to be a game of two very different teams the Brumbies who this season did...

This is going to be a thrilling encounter and I can't wait. Two of the most exciting backlines going at each other. The Sharks who have had the perfect start to their tour will want to continue on the trend and take down the Hurricanes. The Cannes have won their previous game against last years...

The Sunwolves are coming of a bye, but the week before they won their opening game against the Rebels. The Chiefs on the other hand is a great team and one of the favorites after their previous two games. They have won against the Blues and Crusaders who are both great teams. It is going...
