So 5 English and 4 French teams in the top 4 of the Champions Cup pools so far...

What is our excuse again? Too much rugby and tired players and the challenges playing all these leagues but the English has the Premiership and French has the Top 14 and now they going to the Six Nations.

The only disadvantage I see is they have way more foreign players but other than that the challenges are pretty much the same and they find ways to win.

Can't even sey we are focusing on the URC because we aren't really bossing it either we are just getting enough results to stay relevant there.

Perhaps they need more time but yeah it is a bit strange to me.

South African is so pathetic due to SARU not getting enough Broadcasting Monies from SuperSport due to the Frnch and English viewers not paying SuperSport to watch the rugby
 
Yip, a tough weekend for us. Only the Stormers winning handsomely. Cheetahs got a late try for the win. Sharks, Bulls & Lions were pathetic. We just don't have the depth of players to play in 2 tournaments. hard to watch those games.

He's pushing 35, I reckon he'll see out his career there.

Yeah. He'll likely act as a mentor to the youngling nines in the Stormers squad which I think will prove invaluable. Think he's a fine acquisition though, what with Jantjies heading overseas and de Wet going to the Bulls.
 
See this is the kind of performance we expected from The Bulls. They were ruthless. Really good to see. Just sadly too late.
 
 
RG killing it for Leinster against Bath. 2 tries, 2 lineouts steals and he's only been on for 35 minutes.
 
People reckon SA fans are bad online but damn did anyone see French fans? They are so much worse.
 
Well what a sad weekend. All SA teams knocked out of the Champions cup.

As it is I find it hard to believe that any SA team will be able to win the challenge cup.
