I just had a look at the supersport website and it seems they will be broadcasting atleast one of the warm up matches.

Have had way too much downtime already! :) Bring on the rugby already!

The Heineken cup game I am watching now doesn't appear to have any saffers (which is a good thing considering no self respecting South African man would be caught wearing this jersey! ha ha) and earlier I only saw Januarie which doesn't really count. :D

Ryno Gerber - prop for Stade Francais, who lost 9-7 to Edinburgh.
 
Good result for the Stormers. One wonders how seriously Force are taking these warm ups but good result none the less. Stormers have bought some very good players in the off season.

Lions have lost a few unfortunately but they've gained the services of probably the best coach in SA, Dick... Going to be very interesting to see how the Lions perform...

What's news with the Sharks? I believe Plumtrees made a duck. How's that going to effect their form? What about Francois Steyn? He available for Super 14 duties?

I could not believe it when I saw it on Supersport.

Apparently Sias Ebersohn, Juan Smith, Brussow and Ashley Johnson had good games but the backline never fired. And EP defended like animals.

EP just made a massive statement for inclusion into the Super 15 as Southern Kings.

If Cheetahs can't improve drastically before 12 Feb. Bulls will put 50 past them.

**** yes! I was there and what a game. EP played like animals and put on a great show. The Cheetahs team was just about full strength, so I don't want to hear excuses from Cheetahs fans. I think that this game showed that EP should at least be playing in the Currie Cup Premier Divivion, that needs to be the goal for this year. The crowed was a good 20 000, so PE is really in need of a top flight rugby team. :)

Can anyone explain to me why the Sharks are going to play the Western Force at Newlands? Not going to that game because I don't support the Banana Boys but it does seem a bit strange.

Have to agree with Sandman. I was at the game yesterday and the Stormers had 3 tries inside the first 20 minutes and were leading 41-0 by half-time. The game was effectively over from then on. Nonetheless, the Stormers are looking very exciting this season, especially since we've got the additions of Habana and Fourie.

It's a pre-season tri-team friendly series. To fly around the country would make it very expensive!
