The Rugby Thread - Part Deux

[DarkStarMonday]

No Bok game this week. Only Currie Cup but I feel URC and Champions Cup have spoilt it for me. For the last few years I have not really been interested in the Currie Cup.

There’s always the F1 gp.

I enjoy it. Go Griquas! George Whitehead banging every kick over! Jimmy Stonehouse flexing his muscles in the Puma's coaching box!

Stupid handling errors costing them

The ball passing... wobble wobble passes. They need to learn how to pass properly.

Faf dismantled the Sharks in the Currie cup, was like men playing with boys.

Ja, Faf was class in last night's game. Reminder to Rassie that he's still got it.

That yellow for head contact was an absolute joke though.

Just tuned in for the last 10 minutes. Why are both teams in blue?

To assist the colour blind.

Bulls probably has the pink away kit again this season, don't they?

Not their currie cup side I don't think. That's their URC kit but it's actually turquoise blue (Griquas) and Blue (Bulls), isn't it?

No top tier rugby this weekend led to a very boring weekend Cannot wait for more Bok action.

 

[Werner1975]

WP, Bulls and Pumas suffering big losses this weekend. Looks like the top teams so far are Boland, Griquas and Cheetahs.

Faf was also good to give away a bonehead penalty every game. Rassie probably got tired of that.

I don't think that is the reason. More like expanding the scrumhalf pool with an eye on the next WC. Plus the other guys have been playing well.

Episode 4 of the Rassie Erasmus podcast pulls back the curtain on the Springboks' "Foreign Legion" — the foreign-born performance analysts working behind the scenes with the world champions. Rassie sits down with an Irish analyst (Munster, Pau, Montpellier, 2023 Rugby World Cup) and a Welsh analyst (Sydney, Principality Stadium) to talk career paths, near-death health scares, and what it really takes to make it in professional rugby without ever playing for your country.
