Super Rugby 2016

What a great start 64 points in the game :woohoo:
I'm sure all rugby fans are excited to see the Sharks get there campaign underway, think they can win it this year :woohoo:
Don't see much interest being shown when the minnows of the competition Bulls and Stormers meet :whistle:

You must be pleased that the Du Plessis brothers no longer play for you as the penalty count against you will go down. Can't see you beating the Kings as let's face it the Sharks are the weakest team in the entire competition. :whistle:

Have a look at the Inside centre for the Hurricanes.... That oke is a bus... One of his upper legs is bigger than my waist....

these guys are bigger nowadays due to the fact that they are all full time. They do heaps of weight training, not like 20 years ago when you had practice 3 times a week for a couple of hours and all you did was run, do a few exercises and then play for 20 minutes have a shower have a beer and go home. no video analysis no real tactics. All very pro for these guys and they are well looked after financially. No excuse to be complacent or kak (well unless you play for the Sharks) :woohoo:

How Pocock stays on the field game after game is unreal.

Last season the Hurricanes did not lose any of their first 11 or so matches. Tonight they will lose their first match of the season

There goes my prediction for a ball of shit.... :lol:

Now i hear that you dont get an automatic bonus point if you score 4 tries or more Why change something that has been working for such a long time? In order to score a bonus point you have to score 3 or more tries than your opponents. So lets look at this scenario. Lions who love to score tries play against the Chief who like wise like to score tries for fun. Lions 45 Chiefs 50 each side score 6 tries and they dont get a single bonus point whereas lets say the Sharks beat the Kings 21-6 the Sharks get a bonus point as they score 3 tries to nil. Crazy this will make the game go backwards ie once a team has scored three more tries than the opposition they will close up shop and play slow boring 10 man rugby.

The Jaguares are going to cream the Cheetahs. They look far too strong and thats just in the tunnel. 35-15 prediction

I backed OFS outright at 23/10 and just came in to see a blue team scoring - I thought that would be OFS not Jags!!

Cheetahs seem to have sorted most of their defensive probs from last season ?

Yet another ref who has spoilt what could have been a good match. 2 yellow cards for nothing offences Wh did he not take another look at that potential Jaguare try?
