Who are the worst Super Rugby debutants?
The Jaguares and the Sunwolves are currently finding it tough going in their debut season of Super Rugby and that got me thinking – who is the worst debutant to the comp? The Force, the Kings and the Rebels have all been new to Super Rugby and know first hand what it’s like to compete […]
Where did it go wrong for the Protea’s?
Another World Cup year, and yes… another disappointing Protea’s campaign that ends in failure. How did we get it wrong this time? The Protea fans that I feel most sorry for is the young ones. The young boys and girls that are just starting to follow their hero’s and are all excited to watch their […]
Fantasy Football – GW31
With only five fixtures this gameweek, many teams fielded less than 11 players. Luckily we planned ahead and had a full quota – we were hoping it could help us climb the rankings. Five minutes before the gameweek went live, we changed our captain from Aguero to Kane, and it paid off. Alderweireld (7) managed to keep […]
Our Protea’s starting XI
I’ve been keeping a close eye on the Protea’s T20 side over the past few months. I haven’t said much, knowing there’s a world T20 competition on the horizon, I wanted to watch as many games as possible to see if we actually have a chance of beating India, the outright favourites for the competition. […]
Fantasy Football – GW28
With six green arrows in our previous seven weeks, our side seems quite settled and strong. We can’t say we’re making great strides though – seven weeks ago we were in position 62,260, six green arrows later and we’re only in position 52,845. Time for a few risks. This week, there were only eight fixtures, so the […]
Super Rugby: Predictions
Super Rugby returns to our screens tomorrow and for many of us this means stepping back into the competitive cauldron that is SuperBru. The first week is notoriously difficult to pick. To complicate things we also have 3 new teams to make a call on. Not to worry – we’ve got you covered. Here’s our […]
The Charles Glass Society
Last October I was invited to attend a talk at the brewery for something called the Charles Glass Society. I had no idea what it was, but was told that Matthew Pearce was the speaker and was being interviewed by Tank Lanning. So I was super keen and went along. It was hands down the […]
10 Superstars Lost To SA Sport
South Africa is a land of immense sporting talent and while we are fortunate in that a decent percentage of our stars do go on to represent our nation at the highest level – we’ve lost a few to our countries too. When I heard that CJ Stander was going to ply his trade in […]
Fantasy Football – GW18
We had a feeling that this week was going to be a high scoring one, and it was. But we must say – this season is so bizarre that it’s almost boring. The same players are scoring points every week. Alderweireld was our only defender who kept clean sheet for us. Barkley, Vardy and Ozil all got two assists (the amount […]
