    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Hehehe. I know I've seen some doccies on Pitcairn, but can't remember. Think it was 'bout Orcas barging seals off ice-sheets or something.

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Fozzie is probably making it all up. Ulrich says he met an All Black and they partied in De Aar. Sounds very much like that. Wouldn't be surprised if it's the coach himself that has the issue and not the players.

    All-Time Crim 1st XV

    Don't know if his name has been thrown in here, but Rob Howley and Rudolf Straeuli to be considered for the coach of this team. One for a betting scandal and the other for Staaldraad.

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Part 1 of the 5-part Springbok doccie "Chasing the Sun" aired yesterday. Really insightful stuff. Don't know if it is aired in other parts of the world or if it will be. This article covers it briefly, but if you can watch it I would highly recommend it...

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Bok Green beat Bok gold 25-9 in the last game ever at Newlands. Error-ridden shitfest. Only highlight was the scrums with teams exchanging dominance but ultimately the green team had more firepower in the forwards. SA in enviable position considering Koch, Qoboka, and Malherbe among others...

    Everyone's unhappy with NZ lately. https://rugby365.com/tournaments/super-rugby/news-super-rugby/new-zealands-shady-super-rugby-plan/

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Have faith and chill. Work together as you always have in the past between AUS and NZ. My personal opinion here is NZ is trying to get a Hawaiian team in their comp (US money). Whether that will benefit them more on their own or together with AUS is what they are trying to figure out, but they...

    Maybe these administrators are all playing mind games to drum up interest for the championships.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    We may be forced to play CC among ourselves if we're not accepted into the Pro comp. I wouldn't mind that to be honest. Wonder what competition Aus, NZ and Arg will play in. Feel really sorry for Argentina in all of this.

    Springbokke moving forward.

    We're not sure on the 8, but the guy touted to progress through the ranks is Juarno Augustus. Of course, with Rassie and Jake being around we could see bolters there, for example, Arno Botha might actually be able to play there and those coaches are not afraid to try something like that. Dan...

    I'm hoping the Boks keep South. How would that work anyway?

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Seems SA is fekking off to the north with franchises at least. Not what I wanted. Something had to give at some point I suppose. Love you Aussies and Kiwis and I'm sorry for SARU's action on this.

    I think provided you are physically fit, you will play better after a few games. That's just logic, takes the body and mind some time to adjust to the contact and speed of things.

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    I think hitting the 500 minute mark is to get the players performing to an adequate level rather than being a de-facto "you cannot play with less than 500 minutes". Of course they can and will play with less minutes but their physical conditioning and reflexes etc will not be so attuned...

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    I think I should put some things in perspective here. The SA public is literally "gatvol" of COVID restrictions. Think we had like 3 infections before we went into lockdown. We were not allowed to drink or smoke in that time. We're literally rebelling as a nation. Most people I know don't...

    Heard on Rugby365 that French clubs are fighting against this release. Don't know how true it is. I think Willie is also in Japan now though so he might not be able to travel either? I think we will be okay at lock. They may even use Juandre Kruger as a stop-gap.

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    The "squad" means nothing here. Only 50 will be chosen for the 2 teams. Gives the coaches some leeway in choice. Would be a much better game after a domestic season, but we're forced into this unfortunately.
