Re: Super Rugby format is retarded #34,456

Keep padding those records boys. :P We've always known that the soft Australian and weak South African teams have benefited from the current format. Never mind, the star studded & very strong Chiefs team get to play the weakest of the soft Oz teams, the Melbourne one, tonight. They'll obviously pic...

Re: Super Rugby format is retarded #34,456

Can we at least agree this is less than ideal? 1. Hurricanes 38 2. Brumbies 32 3. Stormers 30 4. Chiefs 37 5. Highlanders 33 6 Waratahs 31 The Brumbies and Waratahs have already played twice (and split the points). The leading NZ teams still have some intra- conference games over the next few weeks...

Re: Super Rugby format is retarded #34,456

2014 - final six were in points order at the end. That's great, but it wasn't in both 2012 and 2013. So far it's produced a stupid result 50% of the time, are we supposed to celebrate the times it doesn't? :?: 2013 it was, and 2011 it was as well.

Re: Brumbies versus Waratahs - Official Match Thread

The citing commissioner, in a round about way. has said the ref should have given Kuridrani at least a yellow for his swinging arm on TPN, instead of ruling TPN knocked it on. Take away the Brumbies (forward pass) try a couple of minutes later and the game doesn't look as close. The Brumbies didn't ...

I wonder, what is the average amount of tests Wallaby players play now (i.e. all players/tests since 1996)? And what is the average time they have a complying contract?
