Super Rugby R1 Kneejerk Reaction Thread

From 10 to 15 the Crusaders are ridiculously loaded with talent - except if Mo'unga gets injured.

They've got nine or ten guys who could play test rugby on the wing for most international teams!

[voodoo]

I didn't watch a single second of any game. But im pretty confident the Canes have the goods to go all the way. I mean, there are only 2 more international captains to take out for the season, right? After that, plain sailing!

I can coonfidently say that Fifita has done his dash with being an AB

Round 2 now, but....The Mako would take that Hurricanes team - especially with the ABs still on restricted minutes!

Except for all the ABs in that chequebook team who would need to be rested, and as shown by the results in the US the team doesn't do as well when relying on homegrown players.

@Nepia Speak louder, please - I can barely hear you from up here on the Ta$man pinnacle.

The Mako would take those Jaguares.....

Gatland should be AB coach and the competition is the Chief's to lose. Massive choke if they don't win it from here!

[taniwharugby]

Competition is dead, results are soooo predictable!

Jordie Barrett isn't just the best Barrett. Jordie Barrett is God.

MODS need to update thread title to remove R1.

This is just kneejerk.

Blues have won a game, THIS IS OUR YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO THE FINALS

[sparky]

Crusaders are finished. Their ERA is OVER!

Blonde, break-dancing surfer dude needs to go back to surfing.

Gats to be AB coach by year end after a horrid string of results by the AB's

First AB coach to win Lions series while still coaching AB's

How many of the Bokke stars will be playing in TRC? A lot will be up north - something people didn't talk about much at the RWC is that Aus and SA brought in a number of stars that really lifted them

[Machpants]

@nzzp Bok have ditched the overseas rule, but I'm not sure if that was a special for the RWC. It wil be interesting if anyone get's called back for RC, I remember a while ago Bok players having to fly back to Europe during the bye weeks, even when they didn't play back in Europe - NH Clubs being fluffybunnies

Australian rugby needs a safe space more than an ugly humanities student in the US

Richie Mounga disagrees.

How the fuck are we supposed to knee jerk now? The Highlanders were dog shit then beat the Brumbies who were supposed to be the one Aussie hope. The Sharks have been unreal and now lost to a team that looked fucking hopeless a fortnight ago.

Really all we know are the Chiefs are probably about the best 2nd tier team in World Rugby (and probably now better than Wales) and the Blues suck. Again.
