2007 Super 14 (Rugby)

Its the time of year, its way to hot and humid, E.g. 37C in Kimberley is not rugby playing weather... in an interview Kurtley Beale said he didn't celebrate his try because he was just thinking about getting back to other side of the field, he was too tired to think of anything else. And that was in the first half, which makes the pace the Cheetahs played at all the more impressive.. I hope it stays tight, for some reason SA teams are winning the tight games lately (except the bulls :()
 
*sad bulls supporter*

WTF Matfield.:mad: Two penalties infront the post. Last time I checked a draw is better than a loss. I noticed this trend these past weekends with the teams opting to go for a try instead of taking three easy points and not getting through the defences to score. The Crusaders tried it against the Lions aswell with no luck.

I think it's the Bonus point System that forces that into the game. Loose by less than 7 and 4 tries. I might be wrong. Now this goes for the winning team aswell. That try can mean the difference between 1 or no point for the losing team.

If they scored the try the would have won.

Think they wanted 5 points for a win instead of 2 points for an draw.

Well they only got 1.
Wonder how important that 1 point is going to be in 2 months time? :p

And that last try of the Force was in the corner with an excellent conversion.

If that kick wasn't over, I think they would have taken the penalty and be happy with 4 points :rolleyes:
 
Without Aplon, Watson & Burger, the Stormers might win!!! :mad: Replace them now I say!!

WTF is wrong with this team. Stop paying them. Big names not pulling their weight & a k*k coach to boot.

I'll have to stop watching soon. It's beginning my weekend on a shtty note!

-and they leak a bonus point.:mad:

Thank you Lions. Great result.

(fckng stomers. I'm still pissed off at them):mad:
 
The Wet Drizzle disappointed yet again. Get rid of the damn coach. Anybody notice how poor the tackling was? My 3rd team at school (many years ago) could've run rings around them. For goodness' sake - are they all scared to tackle around the ankles?

Lions! Weel Done. What more can you say? What a thrilling game that was.

Yeah! I was turning blue from holding my breath. Shocking that they left it that late tho.
 
Another Whiney Aussie

I think with the Sharks sitting so pretty on the log, and the title of this thread being apropriate, that this thread becomes the official Sharks supporters thread. :D

This news article is a little old but it's another Aussie whinger so I had to post it. I had heard the accusations of foul play but couldn't find any article about it. Whiney wimp.

Well I totally agree, still in third place with a game to spare...

Although the weekend is going to be a helluva game.

Sharks vs Crusaders
 
OMW - The Stormers hammered the Hurricanes and have done all the SA teams a bit of a favour. Particularly the SHARKS. Excellent.

Who would have thought!!!!!

yeah a win and a bonus point as well...looks like the SA teams are going to have their best season to date. should bode well for the WC as well.
 
Another great result. And no bonus point for the Brumbies. Well done Bulls! 19 - 7.

On a critical note. The Bulls seem to go off the boil in the 2nd half. This, if it continues, will have them continuing to lose close games!
 
I'm in shock!! just woke up a bit hung over and I see 2 wins from 2 this morning :D :D :D
Go Cats!!!
