scotty Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Also called the Blues beating Bulls but by 7, Reds beating Rebels knocked me. Still very tight, combined log 8 points separate 2nd place from 10th. Edited May 15, 2015 by scotty
flymango Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Bad weekend for SA teams. Not wanting to sound alarmist or pessimistic, but I do sense that we are in dire straits with RWC just around the corner. The foundation of the Bok squad is either not up to scratch in the S15 or injured, and form players won't be blooded into Bok rugby in a RWC year. Big problems I foresee (in order of significance):tighthead (3)scrumhalfopen-side flank (6)centre-pairing (12,13)locks (4,5)

'Dale Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 Bad weekend for SA teams. IndeedIt really hurt watching the Leeutjies being outplayed.Hope they can still surge forward with a few more wins.
Shebeen Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 my crystal balling has the super rugby playoffs with 3 kiwi teams, 2 aussie ones and a single SA team. that's assuming the crusaders don't have their usual late surge and bump one of the aussie teams out. who will that SA team be?I don't think even the bluest of bulls supporters are that confident of them turning their tour around enough to make the top6 after last weekend.Lions are running out of options...they have only got three games left and are level on points with the saders. they need to win all three, get some bonus and hope for some other results.The stormers are now out of the top6 - BUT have got the easiest run in of all the teams in possibly the competition. If they can get their sh(7 together it might not be all doom and gloom. Here's my unapologetically optimistic longshot of the finals. Step1:Stormers win most of their closing games, in fact all they really need to do is finish top of the SA conference, and have more points than whoever wins the Aus one(brumbies or tahs)Step2: The home semifinal will probably be against the winner of the aussie conference. they should be beaten.Step3 - final - the hurricanes have basically sewn up the top of the log slot, so they get the final, assuming they don't slip up in the semi(in which case it would be at newlands)...either way, They are definitely beatable (stoempies got a bitlot unlucky in the league game there). stormers are 8/1 on this...i would go for that.
Fruity Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Referee Rohan Hoffmann and TMO George Ayoub have been demoted following their officiating in the Sharks' defeat to the Waratahs in Sydney.http://www.sarugbymag.co.za/blog/details/referees-get-the-axe Edited May 19, 2015 by Craig N nickc and GLuvsMtb 2
Frosty Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Stayed like this a couple hours, but was nice to see... 'Dale, _David_ and scotty 3
dev null Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 What is scary though is that if it was not for the conference system, the first SA side would be 6th on the log. Wannabe 1

Oh yes and Muscles Spies.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 So who else thinks the new bok jersey is a disgraceful affair??All the hype around the science being punted to mask the fact that the bok has moved and is now virtually one tiny step from being removed!!!
