Watching the Gloucester vs Harlequin game, and it's better than a few of the RWC games
 
So today it's Grand Final Day in NRL.

Watching the Knights and the Titans (w) game and it is interesting. They are playing on the same level so not sure who's going to take the final.

Later it's the Panthers vs the Broncos, chose the Panthers on Superbru.
 
NEWS: Springbok legend Bryan Habana will be inducted into the Hall of Fame at the World Rugby Awards in Paris on October 29.

He is one of five legends that will be inducted. The others are Dan Carter (New Zealand), Thierry Dusautoir (France), George Smith (Australia) and Juan Martín Hernández (Argentina).

Habana was crowned World Rugby Player of the Year for his stunning contribution to South Africa’s World Cup 2007 victory, becoming the second Springbok to receive the award after Schalk Burger in 2004.

The lightning-quick wing, who once famously took on a Cheetah in a sprint race, was nigh on unstoppable at the tournament in France, finishing as the top try-scorer after touching down a record-equalling eight times.

Habana scored two more tries at World Cup 2011, to become the Springboks’ all-time leading try-scorer, and added a further five in his tournament swansong in 2015 to take his overall tally to 15 and draw level with Jonah Lomu as the men’s World Cup all-time leading try-scorer.

Habana announced his arrival in the test arena in November 2004 by making a try-scoring debut off the bench against England at Twickenham, scoring with his very first touch of the ball. That was the first of 67 tries in 124 tests for the Springboks, a record only bettered in world rugby by Japan’s Daisuke Ohata.

So the Gallagher Premiership Rugby just started (Bristol vs Leicester) and it's going to be interesting to see how the teams cope with some of their stars still in the RWC.

And Bristol already scored the first try within the first 3 minutes
