    Brumbies 43 - 40 Drua

    The Drua will be a fun watch this season -

    I went along to this and it was a f'ing hot day. Which helps explain why I was muntered when I got home at 12:30.

    For those that only watch the highlights, the Drua looked like they could play all facets competitively too - you just cant give them space. They'll be devastating on the counter attack too.

    @SBW1 he'll be going to Japan or France. Won't be a Super club.

    Two clauses in rugby’s current offside laws state that players can be put onside by a kick receiver who runs back five metres or passes the ball, even if they are ahead of the kicker.
    
    Super Rugby Pacific officials have effectively thrown those clauses in the bin, Stuff understands.

    @Duluth Defenses are going to have to rotate much more to get someone constantly sprinting forward to put their teammates onside, which should help those teams that can kick tactically and get 50:22s.

    It will be nice to see players running the ball back knowing half the opposition are offside too.

    At least this should help make SR entertaining even if the NH won't let it translate into Test football.

    Another load of shit Arcticle by Rugby Pass the Crusaders may not win this year but they will crumble Fuck off.
    The Hurricanes will fight it out with the Highlanders for worst NZ team.
    The Canes look Ok to me early days yet.SR is not won in pre season as we all know.
    It is the last half of the comp that matters pre season means nothing.
    The Crusaders had 11 players of their top 23 not in the UK they beat Bristol easily and almost drew with Munster that is probably their best Pre season for a few years.

    That is definitely written by someone from the North who barely takes any interest in Super but was forced to write about the upcoming season.

    Isn't there a rumour that Ben Smith isn't actually a real person but rather a pseudonym for Jamie Wall?
