Hier kom die Bokke
On the whole, most SA rugby fans will be pleased with the performance of the Springboks on Saturday. There are a few concerns, notably at the kick-offs, where they did not field the […]
Of Mice and Men
The announcement of the Springbok squad for the incoming series was generally well received by rugby lovers. Heyneke Meyer blended experience and youth, using Super 15 form, to produce an excellent combination of […]
Sports Galore
That peaceful process, which unites us as a nation, happens on Saturday, when Heyneke Meyer announces his side for the first test against Italy. We introduce you to a lekker website where armchair […]
Mixed Emotions
If you want to listen to Rick Nelson’s song as you read here, click on this link. Stormers 20 – Reds 15 The day after the match I saw a picture in my […]
Three out of Four
Wind uit hul Seile En daar vind die Stormers toe uit jy kan nie oornag van super verdediging oorskakel na super aanval nie. Veral nie as jy twee ysters soos Vermeulen en Elstadt […]

On Friday, the Stormers reverted to their tried and tested approach in grinding out a two point win against the Hurricanes. How ironic that their winning margin was thanks to the never-say-die spirit […]
Bulls & Cheetahs win away from home
The much anticipated clash between the Sharks and the Cheetahs produced the expected result, based on recent form. The score was exactly the same as in the earlier encounter in Bloemfontein. The significant […]
Super Surprises
As most SuperBru* players will testify, it was a weekend few could have predicted. The Super Surprises of the weekend in terms of results were the Chiefs losing at home to the Reds […]
Cheetahs and Kings take honours
Brumbies v Kings An amazing performance by the now not so unknown Kings! The log leader Brumbies would not have expected a display like that and I imagine Jake White could be a […]
Vat hom Ouboet!
This weekend, the Kings face yet another steep hurdle, playing the Brumbies in Canberra. Jake White has already indicated that he will not select an “underweight” side, knowing how physical the Kings are. […]
Not quite the Two Oceans
The Blitszbokke finally came right. What is more, they did it against New Zealand, a side that seem to have a mental stranglehold on them. Hopefully this will pump them up to improve […]
