Official 2015 Super Rugby Thread

Frans Steyn, JP Pietersen, Willem Alberts and maybe even Beast Mtawarira should all come very strongly into the selection frame this week as the Sharks make an all-out assault on Fortress Newlands.

some of my fave players ..... nice to see them making a comeback!
 
Is there a replay on youtube or something wrt that bulls forward pass?

Can't remember.

But I do suspect there's an informal competition amongst the SS cameramen to get at least one "through the Assistant Ref's legs" shot in per game. We've suddenly been getting a lot of those.

What about that slow motion thing they do when there's a kick at posts?
You see the ball slowly going towards the poles, but you already know the result of the kick from the noise of the crowd and commentators
 
This game seems to be a lot tighter than I thought. I was thinking the Chiefs would run away with this. There is still time :)
 
YELLOW CARD, HIGHLANDERS, WHEELER! Joe Wheeler will spend the next 10 minutes in the sin bin when he deliberately slows down the Chiefs' ball at a ruck close to his try-line.
 
The most ridiculous yellow of the week has just been shown, how utterly bloody stupid!

Refs are winning games in a big way this season huh but still, they are completely untouchable.
 
Some poor decisions at the end cost Chiefs some points...

Yellow card for a decent tackle.
SBW pinged for a legal challenge on the ball.

:wtf:
 
It's not even ruggers anymore, refs/officials are deciding how games go too much these days. If it's not a fair contest, why bother watching.
