Rugby Fever

Morning All,

Well can you feel it ?  Rugby season has almost started again. In fact it has well it does. Tonight up at the Green Mile of UCT its a repeat of last years Varsity Cup Finals. Could be a cracker, here's hoping the Tigers can slip one past the Dutchmen. 

Along with the Varsity cup we see the arrival of the Cape Town Tens. It seems like its going to be a hit with some big names rolling into town to watch, play and be Ambassadors ( Dan Carter )

Fleckie and Bob have gone all out and hopefully Cape town come to the party too. The Nadoes have got a crack team in the Beer League and are looking like hot favourites to take the title. Lets get down there and support the lads. All the best okes.

Last but never least is the Super 14 which kicks off next weekend, there is the small matter of the Sharks coming to Newlands to play the Stormers who are looking better every year. I am still concerned about backline cover in certain positions with the nature of this tournament who knows how it will go. I will delve into more detail about things nearer the time. 

For anyone who hasn't heard about Dan Carter and his injury over in France here is a little article about the costs of his sabbatical on his club Perpignan. Shame, its an unlucky investment in a horrible financial time http://www.rugbyheaven.co.nz/4835767a22363.html

Read it and you can throw some numbers at DC when he is here this weekend.
