May only be three months out.
Still a huge step down for Wasps on the field and a liability off

But if the english feel their business model can handle it

He's probably less of a liability than their new (or not so new) outhalf.

I was raving about this game on Friday morning, particularly the Highlander's 5th try. It appears SKY agree, here'sit

Some try indeed.

Couldn't help noticing that the Crusaders' kit looks a lot like Saracens'. Is this just a coincidence or is there some sort of link between the two clubs?

The link is real...................they have the same kit designer.

Ironically given that NZders are running around upside down, if they were playing at the same time, viewed from space the kits would look identical.

I bought the Crusaders shirt at the start of the season.

I'm too fat to comfortably wear it in public.

Jaguares winning 22-17 v Kings in Port Elizabeth, only problem is they have had 2 red cards and just got a yellow as well!

Update: as bad as the Kings are, they managed to win 29-22 with their 3 men advantage!

The Waratahs Chiefs game was an attacking blinder.
Short bursting carries, offloading fest, less ruck time.
Go the Tahs!

Blues looked pretty decent last night. The conference thing is a joke. Any other conference they'd be right up there.

Christ crucified, you turn on the magic bax in the corner to watch rugby and you get this bullshit. Rebels just not bothered Crusaders 28-0 up in less than 15 minutes. Disgraceful Aussiebastards. :duh:

As things stand 4/5 of the NZ sides above the best AUS side.....with the Blues only 4 pts behind them.
