Hope top see it come as we will have some real rugby issues to be discussed soon.   What Mozart and co comes up with now is too much of their standard BS - as brainless as only they can be.

Go the mighty Crusaders, another 3peat from the 2nd best rugby team on the planet.

Cant wait

Keep on the lookout for a Fantasy team selection to replace Foxsport, please.

IF you want another boring, predictable season of Super Rugby yeah go Saders! . If you want a more balanced season, and a more compeitive one than go everyone else. Ratings came out and the Hurricanes were the most watched Super Side in 2018. I guess fans love their attractive style of Rugby. In any case. Be interesting in World Cup Year.

As for Fantasy Rugby. As Fox Sports has now ended their competition. Looks like Superbru is the most viable option. Their prediction game is better than their fantasy game however. So hopefully something pops up. 

ETA: Just found a real good Fantasy Site for Super Rugby this year. Similar format to the one at Superbru, slightly different. You have a $2,000,000 Salary.

Thanks - it was not the idea of starting a "NZ civil war" that cause me to raise the issue.  

I think the lead-up to the competition that would provider clarity on the Fantasy issues and I already registered the Pools on Superbru.

I am sure by the end of this month we will discuss Fantasy options extensively,

Well  ... regarding this year' s SR competition ... Rassie will be focusing his attention on the darker skinned folk out there ... as he needs to find his promised 50% quota mix for the up and coming WC.

The only three worthy of their spot so far ... imo ... are Dyantyi, Nkosi and Willemse ... the rest are really poor sub standard gravytrainers ... including our "captain" ...

I'm not sure how he's going to do it, as we've all heard that he doesn't want to "cheapen" the transformation process with random, absurd selection ... lol!!

Should be the most entertaining part of this year's competition ...

To think that he was so confident at first of putting a fully transformed side together ... one that can actually dominate the world ... how things have changed ... 

I guess that's why he's opted out of extending his stay as Bok coach ...

The issue of the contract with Erasnus was discussed extensively recently,    He apparently never signed a contract to be coach for six years - but as Director of Rugby.   That happens to be the official organizationally the position under which the Chief Coach falls.   His usage as a coach until the world cup stems from subsequent arrangements made iro of coaching od the team up to the WC, where-after a Chief Coach would be appointed,

I do think that there is nobody who disagree with you about quota selections - but we will have to live with it and hope for the best. .
