2008 Super 14 Rugby
 

Well, you thought we were in the cricket season? You were wrong.
Super 14 starts this weekend! Not that I can be too arsed watching it, but I'll try to catch a few matches.

http://www.super14.com/fixtures/

Fixtures are there.

Wonder if the Force will do any good this year aye DU? Maybe you'll be sporting that Crusaders avatar again ;)

I dont know what you all think, or what the papers say, but i see this year as the year that the Hurricanes will actually make a decent go of it and not make the semi's by fluke

GO THE 'CANES

Well the Force are off to a stellar start with Henjak smacking one of his team mates in a pub fight and breaking his jaw.

yay


Mitchell is letting him fly to South Africa and the ARU are having kittens (as they should) now the cunts are talking docked points - fuck that, you only get one shot at Super 14, if we get docked points, both Mitchell and Henjak are going to cop it at the first home game.


ANYWAY, we fucking destroyed Queensland last week in a trail match, and although it was just Queensland :lol: I thought we looked pretty good.


Fuck the 'canes and stick the crusaders up your arse. :foc:

I've always thought the Force would come right, this will probably be their year.
That's some dumb shit with Henjak, but maybe the fella deserved it.

Canes look alright this year, as do the Chiefs. I rekon the Crusaders will do it tough.
Tahs, ACT, and QLD will be shite, you never know with the SA teams... But I'd say the Bulls and Sharks will be the ones to look out for, as they were finallists last year.

We have the sharks first game. I hope we come back from that shit hole of a country with at least 2 wins.

(Mitxh will tell the boys not to eat the food)

well, i just hope that this year will see a different champ. im sick of it being Auckland and Cantabery nearly every year

I'm just sick of Canterbury full stop.

Dare i say it, but i would really like to see a Australian team win it. Rugby in Aussie is wicked, its just a pity that teams like the Crusaders can fluke it year in- year out.

so What are you guys picks for the winners tis week end.

Crusaders v Brumbies
Highlanders v Reds
Sharks v Western Force
Blues v Cheifs
Waratahs v Hurricanes
Stormers v Bulls
Cheetahs v Lions

My pick is in bold

Crusaders v Brumbies
Highlanders v Reds
Sharks v Western Force
Blues v Cheifs
Waratahs v Hurricanes
Stormers v Bulls
Cheetahs v Lions

My pick is correct

Crusaders. Who smashed the brumbies :D
Highlanders
Sharks
Chiefs
Hurricans
Bulls
Lions

looks like the CVantab train is just starting, NOT AGAIN

If you ask me, 34 - 3 is more than smashing them, its handing them a bloody lesson on the game. On the plus side, it was good to see a foward bag a double, even if it was a number 8.

Brumbies for the spoon this year, no doubt.

No Greagan, no Larkham, no chance.


Force lost 17-10, no Nathan Sharp (another South African stomach virus) I wsh they would stay away from the food in that filthy fucking country.

LOL, seems the only way the SAF teams can beat the rest of the world, bet they had Rosie cooking in the hotel.

But i do think that the Brumbies will do better than the spoon. I think one of the SAF teams this year will get it, seeing that SAF dont have the talent to stretch out to 5 teams.

Reds beat Highlanders 22-16. so far i 2/3 this week, best yet for me,

Blues 32 Chiefs 14

looks like i slip back a bit to 2/4. but it was a good match, after the half time break.

You mean Susie WestNZ :D
Blues looked strong. It was probably the fastest game of footy I've ever seen, love these new laws. Canes and Tahs has just started. Looks quick too. Which is better for the canes I rekon.

Blues are my NZ team :cool:

i may mean Susie, but the name i saw in the papers at the time was Rosie

Final Score Waratahs 20 Hurricanes 3
Oh the pain, my boys lost.

Final Score Stormers 9 Bulls 16
Well. looks like i got both these games wrong, man i suck, only 2/6 now, i sure hope the cheetahs beat the lions.

Final Score Cheetahs 22 - Lions 23

Didnt see this result on the Super 14 page. real bad week for me, only 2 correct out of 7 fukn games.

Lets hope that i get it right next week.

Big boost for the rest of the teams this year, for a month anyways

shouldnt show boat when scoring a try, IDIOT:?:

Also read that in total, only 241 points were scored by all teams in the first royund of play, which is the lowest scoring first round since the late 90's when opening weekend netted 239

These African teams cant keep away fron controversy.

I think it was pretty error ridden, but it was the most exciting footy I've seen in years.
Go the new laws!

i reakon the new laws are ok, but it will take time to get used to them, but yes, it was exciting to watch.

when did he join the team, and why didnt he come play for one of the NZ teams, or at least an aussie team.

wow, didn't know he was playing Super 14, that's awesome.

Blues played awesome as they will continue to do. I'm picking an all NZ final, likely Crusaders and Blues.

Scuse you- i do believe the gods in blue will be retaining their title thank you very much.

More than a team, its a religeon. GO BULLS!!!

Dear god! let go! it was 1995 and was never proven. It was suzi not rosie. That loss still hurts hey? ha ha!

im picking this to to be honest, but i would like to see something different, like say, a Western Force v Bulls final or something, a game you would not pick in a million years

they should both go, if they wwernt semi decent rugby players, they would be in jail, or facing charges

It happened, even if it wasn't proven, and New Zealand supporters will never forget how SA cheated to win. You should let go and stop denying the undeniable.

please playa- you didn't get beaten by 15 men alone. You had a whole nation against you. You pretty boys thought you only had to show up to collect the cup and you walked into a wall of green steel. Scrum near the 22 m line of New zealand... Van der Westhuizen to Stransky... boom! glory glory glory!

We walked into a bowl of poison, but if thats what you fellas call a wall of green steel, then yes I agree with you.

Henjak is gone, Sare got 8 week suspension and a $5000 fine.


Good fucking riddence - fuck off to South Africa and play with the scum.



just don't eat the food

LOL

Its not poison. You Lot lack two vital rugby ingredients.... balls! you got no balls! When last did you win the RWC? it was in the last century ha ha!
