Geesus that was a kuk game. Bulls Glasgow. A win is a win though. Bulls lineouts a bit hit and miss. Backs not particularly sharp either. Missing Edwils x factor and the Vorster/Mapoe cohesion as a centre pairing.

There is absolutely no way Bulls can even think about winning the URC with a performance like that.
 
Watching Munster and Cardiff game now and asking myself hoe Munster is so high on the table...
 
The Crusaders aren't what they used to be...

Absolutely useless. I'm fuming. How can you play so bad with a team jam packed with Springboks.

What does this mean for Springbok rugby. :oops:

Completely different performance. Like day and night difference. They need to be more consistent from the 1st minute.

That's the Sharks for you! They can play at test level one week, school boy the next! Remarkable 2nd half though!!! Wow! Connacht will be scratching their heads wondering who they were playing in the 2nd half. 31-0!! Hiding of note!
 
Rohan Janse van Rensburg returning to SA with the Sharks. Big signing for them.
 
So we have some Currie Cup, URC and 3 QF of the HCC.

Jam packed day today. Finally SuperSport is showing the HCC matches and not just 1 or 2 of them.
 
Stadium is absolutely packed with Munster fans.
 
And we lose the feed on a crucial time on the 1st QF in extra time... Sigh
 
Toulouse win 4 to 2 place kicking knockout.

First time I saw this.
 
So Faf plays the ball so fast the the breakdowns when he plays for Sale but for ZA he slows it down extra slow...
 
Vincent Tshituka and Carlu Sadie also heading to the Sharks.

The Lions are in a massive spot of bother. Not the same funding as the Sharks or Bulls. Not as prestigious a rugby destination as the Stormers and then you also have the most morbid support base likely because of the shitty location of Ellis Park.

Not sure the coaching staff is helping either.

EDIT: The funding shouldn't be an issue since all sides have R65.5 million to spend so it must just be that players would rather play elsewhere.

I am beginning to think the Sharks may be using some Roc Nation top-up or something to supplement salaries (legalities aside) or, perhaps they have more Bok contracted players which is covered separately by SARU?
