Worrying times
A much improved bowling and fielding performance by the Proteas in the 2nd one day international was not enough to secure victory. They fell 17 runs short in the rain affected, Duckworth-Lewis influenced […]
Bleak Day at Black Rock
Aussies and Proteas Annihilated The Aussies got truly trashed by the English in the second test. Unfortunately the same fate awaits them in the remaining tests. Ignore the media hype regarding the series […]
Wales to the Rescue?
Warren Gatland, the Welsh coach who is also in charge of the B & I Lions, put a cat amongst the pigeons when he announced that two thirds of his starting line-up would […]
Reversal of Fortunes
The reality of test rugby was very evident on Saturday when Australia sneaked from behind to level the series against the B & I Lions. How ironic that a missed kick, at the […]
Wimbledon Wipe-out
First Nadal went, then Sharapova, now Federer. The people running the show must be very grateful that their tickets for next week are already sold. The two gentlemen, Rafa in particular, are the […]

I blame the poor rugby, from all but one team, squarely on today being Monday the thirteenth, and I am doomed to try and find something positive to say after the way the […]
A Sweet and Sour Weekend
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 […]
Stormers must win & Cheetahs on the brink
Rebels v Kings: Saturday – AAMI Park, Melbourne 11:40 Friday morning sees the Kings play their last tour match as they meet the Rebels in Melbourne – both sides would have this fixture marked […]
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 […]
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 […]
