    Leon McDonald's heading to the Force

    I saw him having picnic dinner with his wife/partner on the field of that historic kindergarten on AKL Queen Street the weekend before last. Trying to convince her to move to Perth maybe 😂

    If the tournament can maintain the quality of entertainment it has shown so far this year, then how long until the South African teams and their fans will want to rejoin Super Rugby?

    What's helped a lot has been the lack of NZ v AU games. Will be interesting to see if the games are as close and entertaining when the trans- Ta$man matches kick off in earnest.

    I know Super Rugby doesn't translate well to Tests, but this year's 6N I feel has been pretty stale. The first 2 weeks of Super Rugby on the other hand.

    The rugby isn't as fun to watch but I think it's been a pretty good tournament so far? England beating France, and both of this Saturday's games have been tight. Definitely not as good a spectacle but I wouldn't say it's necessarily been stale.

    Yeah that didn't age well as Scotland scores in the corner.

    Yeah I dunno, just doesn't feel as intense as previous years.

    Tahs V Highlanders 37-36, Force V Moana 45-44, Reds V Moana 56-36. All signs point to it being a lot better than previous years. Hopefully the Aussie teams can keep their momentum going, will really spice things up.

    How good is Super this year. It seems like any team can win on their day. Great for fan engagement, is Super Rugby SUPER again?

    Tell you what, the Blues haven't dropped off much at 3.50. We lose next week and we're in massive trouble with still a trip to Fiji in there as well which as was proven by the Brumbies yesterday, even if you win over there, most teams always lose the next week. Its almost the new South Africa in terms of how hard it is to recover from the trip.

    Watching the impartial panel (not)on the breakdown
    You may as well give the Chiefs the title now according to Beaver and Joe Wheeler thinks Tavatavanawai should replace Reiko at centre

    All impartialness goes out the the window and they become fan boys and girls
    Ironically only Goldie displaying common sense
    For Christ sakes I thought these people were more measured

    I have barely watched super rugby in years. Living o/s part of it, maybe the product has deteriorated, I dunno - just not engaged.

    But last night I couldn't sleep so whacked on the Stan highlights - shout out to Stan, the product is bloody amazing - you can want a full replay, a 25min package, or a 10min package, quality stuff - and I ended up watching 4 game packages. High scoring (that ain't new), but high skill level, players looked engaged and cared, some close finishes.

    Thoroughly enjoyed it!

    Might even watch a whole game again one of these days...

    Based on Timoci doing well at 12 at the beginning of SR he should play 13 for the ABs? Good to see Sky's DEI policy extends to the mentally handicapped.
