Re: South Africa overflow of rugby players
What is the new comp for non-URC teams? I don't see how the URC sides (without their Boks) will be able to field strong teams for a Jul-Sept Currie Cup. I think the Jul-Sept window for CC makes the best sense overall but that means the bigger unions will be fielding development sides. the non-URC t...

Re: South Africa overflow of rugby players
Unfortunately the Currie Cup has become the "Vodacom Cup" of the current era. The days of strength vs strength are gone. Mostly the young players that are not often involved with the URC games will be the ones to do duty in the Currie Cup, so we will see the smaller unions taking the cup more often...

Re: WALES OUT!!!
I do hope than Sam Warburton will give the playoff game idea a rest now that is isn’t a given that it will always be Italy that has to play in it. No he was still banging on about after the wales match yesterday. The only way I could see this as remotely possible would be for the 6n monies to be sh...

Re: I can’t wait for Jeff’s ratings. Is this the worst Welsh team ever?
I predict you'll see a renaissance in the Wallabies, culminating in them at least making the final of the 2027 World Cup... Wales are doing the right thing, starting again... it's a new era... seeing who can handle test rugby and who can't.. things will settle down over the next few years once he s...

Italy will be disappointed to only be 11 points ahead.
Wales will be relieved to only be 11 points behind.
Doesn’t feel enough for Italy. Wales still in this.

Wales have Italy right where they want them. Lulling them into a false sense of security rope for the inevitable comeback.

Re: Wales out
Sam Warburton has been banging on for years that there should be a promotion relegation game.
Wales should still beat Italy but it would be interesting to hear his comments in the unlikely event that Wales win the wooden spoon.
