Super Rugby

The sacking of league star Benji Marshall has led to a revival of the Blues, who thrashed the Queensland Reds 44-14 in Auckland on May 2.

The Hurricanes may have killed three birds with one stone in beating fellow New Zealanders the Auckland Blues 39-20 in Wellington.

With his styled beard Force coach Michael Foley looks like a stage magician. Two years ago he performed his greatest disappearing act, vanishing from the Waratah coaching staff.

The Hurricanes slipped into Super Rugby title contention by beating the Bulls 25-20 in their Round 8 clash in Napier, New Zealand, with fly-half Beauden Barrett passing 100 points for the season.

Don’t pick a fight with Jake White—that is the lesson that Waratahs coach Michael Cheika should have learned from the 10-32 loss to the Sharks in Durban on the weekend.

The Waratahs face the table-topping Sharks in Durban on Saturday (March 29), with both sides needing to win.

Each year the Waratahs start the Super Rugby season like world beaters – then as the going gets tough, they stumble, perform ineptly, then end up being booed from the field by their supporters.

Somehow the Crusaders beat the Stormers 14-13 at home in Christchurch—but the victory failed to hide flaws in the champion side.

As the Chiefs celebrate their second Super 15 title in two years, southern hemisphere rugby turns its attention to the upcoming Rugby Championship, which starts next week.

The Brumbies success has added to the optimism in Australia, brought about by the appointment of new national coach Ewen McKenzie.

The Bulls and the Chiefs are rested and ready for home Super Rugby Semi-finals against the Brumbies and the Crusaders respectively.

The British and Irish Lions put a “second string” Western Force to the sword last night in the first match of the Australian Tour.

The top-of-the-table clash between the Reds and the Brumbies ended in a 19-all draw—but only after 80 minutes of high-pressure rugby.

Despite heavyweight clashes across the Super 15, the lowly Western Force stole the limelight by beating the Crusaders 16-14 at home in Perth.

An impressive debut by 19-year-old open-side flanker Ardie Savea, helped the Hurricanes beat the Waratahs 41-29 in a crucial game at home in windy Wellington.
