Man buns.....sorry, Canes 21-0 up V Lions after 20 mins...

[morepork]

Coles doesn't eff around hooking the ball. Good stuff.

[morepork]

41-17 to the Man Buns.

Coles is just smooth with the ball in hand. Sets up a try like a center.

Better skills than Jamie Roberts

[morepork]

They put 50 on them. Canes look to have some beasts in the forwards. The Bus got two, but still looks like Bill Cosby in a diabetic coma.

Canes - best team never to win the title !!!!!

I believe the Stormers & Bulls are marginally ahead of the Lions, with the Bulls having a couple of games in hand. Right now the Pretorians look like the only side capable of breaking the Kiwi stranglehold . . .

Stormers and Bulls are ahead of the Lions in the SA division, but they're both in the conference that is not playing any NZ teams (ie they avoid arguably the 4 top teams). It's no surprise they're ahead on points.

Yeh, but I think the Bulls are on about a 6-game winning streak since losing in the opening round. Their last couple of victories against Aussie sides have been very comprehensive.

Speaking of which, the Jaguares annihilated the Kings 73-27 today

That's comprehensive, even if the Kings are a joke.

The Bulls are 6 from 8, with 5 wins coming consecutively after an opening heavy loss to the Stormers, a win v the Rebels and a draw with the Sharks. You can only beat what's in front of you but 5 in a row isn't much to write home about when what's in front of you are Sunwolves, Cheetahs, Kings, Reds and the Force.

Is an all-Kiwi semi-finals possible? On form, that's the way it's shaping up...

Cracker of a South Island derby on at the moment. Highlanders leading the Crusaders 20-12, having scored 3 tidy tries. Cru were dominating the game, had 2 tries disallowed, but resolute Highlanders defence kept them in the game before equally shoddy Crusaders D let the Highlanders strike back.

[Spy]

FT 34-26 Highlanders, a late Dagg try making it sound closer than it really was. The Crusaders totally dominated the first quarter, but a couple of Highlanders tries against the run of play turned it round. Highlanders were excellent in the end. Good rugby.

Brilliant match. Hard to see the Kiwi teams being beaten on that performance.

C****s.

The Blues are the New Zealand rugby equivilent of anal prolapse.

[morepork]

Such jolly japes.

[UGagain]

Do I need one of those Rolf copters?

Len has one UG. Few miles on the clock, but popular with the ladies.

Just watched the game. How good are the two Smiths? Benjamin just Zen and right decisions almost every time. The little Smith has such a mean flat pass and keeps his dick in his pants, focusing instead on getting on with continuity.

Crusaders have an issue at centre maybe. They are relying a lot on consistent paint by numbers players like Todd. Forwards are definitely carrying them. Len, your mate at 14 had a good go at being Owen Farrell for the first 15.

I thought Len had a Dyslexia.

Kiwis still a cut above the others...

Apart from Blues poos.

[rowan]

Yeh, bit shocked by the magnitude of that result. I thought they were coming right now, since axing JK as the coach. Possibly just an aberration? I guess that's why they call them the 'Blues!' Anyway, let's see what the rest of the competition brings. . .

[rowan]

Graham Henry is disappointed in this year's Super Rugby competition, including the Kiwis' dominance, and says expansion to Argentina and Japan has diluted the quality:
