RE: Super Rugby Quarterfinal Analysis
I think this highlights where worldwide rugby is at... Australian teams are really struggling and NZ teams are going on there merry way, which is displayed in their national team... In Aus, state rugby is becoming less prevalent in news...
True but not just Australia, S African teams except the Lions have struggled also. It will be interesting to see how the super rugby form transfers into the international season during the Rugby Championship. I don't believe Australia or S Africa will have their european players available.
South Africa is always struggling because of couching period. What is really strange is that two teams the cheetahs and western force are being kicked out and they will be playing in Europe's Pro12. I am looking forward to that but it is still weird to see them play in a different tournament.
You mean the cheetahs & kings? I didn't know they would be playing in europe but same/similar timezone makes sense. The Australians are potentially facing legal battles to cull a side as Force & Rebels dig their heels in. & then they have their striking cricketers to deal with...
Kings yes how could I mix that up.
