Heineken & Challenge Cups

Stade France vs Lions on now....Lions leading 0-7....but why are the Lions playing in Vetkoekpaleis kit?

Money I guess.

In this professional sport world of today nothing counts if you are sponsored.

Pity.

Thinking of sponsorships and the monetization that ruins the direction of sporting codes, I can't help but think of Captain Amazing from Mystery Men...



And Wayne's World...

Wotsa score please

They lost 17-7...got carded twice in short succession., game over...

but the Sharks beat Bordeaux very well in the Heineken Champions Cup - 32-3

Well it was something different for sure....thanks for the info.

Lyon vs Bools...7- 0

Bismarck looking like a 80's TV police detective ...or porn star...

Whole day of rugby today ...with the SA sides in the Heineken, the competition has become much more interesting for me, even if the SA sides are not involved.

12-10

What a kick Gelant!!!

Racing can't stay down...great perseverance!!@

lekke WiePie!!!!

Well done Stormers....Happy to see Jean luc du Plessis back....impressive start after long layoff....Dan du Plessis is growing in stature and a great 12.....Roos also showed his strength....what,s happened to the bulls? Compared to last season, there is something off ....smart try from Eben 

I saw Wolhuter starting for tje Stormers in two games and then vanished from sight due to injury,  Liked what I saw of him last night.   

Roos when he came on from the bench was huge in the g ame.    

All 8 URC teams through to the last 16 as compared to 5 Gallagher Premiership Teams and 3 Top 14. Bodes well for the URC as a league.

If Munster pull off a win today which is unlikely Stormers will be playing the Bulls at home in the last 16.

If Toulouse beat Munster which is likely than its Bulls will have to travel to face them in the last 16.

Stormers will then either have Munster or Montpellier at home.

Most likely the Sharks will drop a position today after the Edinburgh Saracens match and will most likely have the Ospreys at home who I suspect will also drop one place toady.

You would fancy Stormers and Shark to make the quarters but I think the Bull won't go beyond the last 16.

Stormers has got a flyhalf headache. 

Libbok, Kade, Jean Luc, Sasha, Willemse. 

For years we had to suffer with Peter Grant or Chris Russouw. Now all of sudden we have to bring 4 flyhalves into the match day 22

Monster making a game of it.
