Arno isn't fit yet. He is set to return in three weeks.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Re: Super Rugby 2017
Shame many of the later PM games in Africa on busy Saturdays are only on the red button.
Regarding the Bulls: Liebenberg is the Super vice captain and possible starting 8. From what I saw last year he's more likely to keep his balance through contact than the quicker Arnie Botha.
Can Jacques Potgieter replicate any of his 2014/2015 Waratahs form (Competitions best blindside)?
Roelof Smit stood out against the BaaBaas. Love the squat frame. Back in 8 weeks. A successor to Frannie Louw for the Boks openside?

Re: Super Rugby 2017
Enjoyed the first half but too many errors in the second half for my liking. Thought Dagg was different gravy in the 1st 40 - unplayable at times. Vardy was very impressive as well.
Thought the high-tackles were being reffed more leniently than in some NH games I've seen. Lots of choke tackling that were marginal but the ref let it go.

Re: Super Rugby 2017
Blues V Chiefs was a cracker until a red card just B4 half-time. Late and high so fair enough. Shame as it was looking like a good one.

Re: Super Rugby 2017
Missed the Crusaders game but caught the Sharks game. Good win in the end against a good Brumbies team. We should have a few of our forwards watch that a few SR games.

Sunwolves v Stormers is a try fest. Defence is optional it seems

Australian rugby seems to be in serious decline. http://www.newshub.co.nz/home/sport/201 ... ralia.html

Re: Super Rugby 2017
Fantastic Stormers v Chiefs game early. Stormers players celebrated like they had win the whole thing but its some change to getting stuffed by the Chiefs in the play-offs last season.
