Halfway to paradise
Mutual music maniacs may have heard echoes of this Billy Fury song after the final whistle blew in the match between the All Blacks and the Springboks on Saturday. In particular, the final […]
Kyk Vorentoe, Springbokke
Kommentators na aan die Bokke beweer dat hulle die teleurstelling van verlede Saterdag verwerk het, en nou op die groot stryd teen die aartsvyand fokus. Ek dink nie dit sal ‘n slegte ding […]
Clansey's Clangers & Proteas win!
Clancey Clangers not the only reason – Paul Kruger If the Springboks had the benefit of appealing against the result of Saturday’s match against Australia, their chances of success would be excellent if […]
Who wants it most?
When Australia hosts the Springboks on Saturday, both sides will have something to prove after their previous performances. The Aussies may be smarting after the drubbing at the hands (and feet) of the […]
Mooi Rugby is ook Wenrugby
Dit is baie bemoedigend om na vier weke van die kompetisie te sien dat die spanne wat bereid is om hardlooprugby te speel, bo-aan die punteleer is. Die Pumas se oorwinning oor die […]

One can hardly be blamed for looking at the weather forecast, rather than the team selections, for the second round of the Rugby Championship. This line from a Crowded House song keeps ringing […]

The End of an Era
Bobby Londt To describe King Kallis’s career in a blog would not be possible, nor would it do justice to a career that ranks up there with the best. For this reason, this […]
Springbok Squad for Rugby Championship
The announcement of the squad was delayed to this coming Saturday as a result of the Sharks making the semi-finals. One suspects that the ultimate list of 30 players will be a mixed […]
Gold for the Super Sevens Side
Winning the gold medal at the Commonwealth games is fantastic. Beating New Zealand in the final is priceless. As Supersport puts it: Their 17-12 victory meant that the Kiwis lost their first ever […]
Will History Repeat Itself?
