Shocking attendance - I won't even use the word crowd.

Apparently 20,000 turned up in Bloemfontein to watch the Cheetahs win in a 13-try humdinger against Zebre - 54-39.

Won't be long before the SA sides are knocking over the Welsh sides too.

Yep. Welsh sides either playing like shit or throwing games away at the death so far this season.

Stargazer

Not sure where to post this; posting it here because he's playing in the NH.

Andre Taylor has been named in Japan's national development squad.

taniwharugby

@Stargazer fark has he been gone that long?

Stargazer

@taniwharugby Yes, he's in his fourth Top League season. After three seasons with Kintetsu Liners, he's now with Sanix Blues.

Stockcar86

Stargazer

@Stockcar86 Haha, that's a shocker. Lucky for him that Clermont beat Brive 62 to 6. All will be forgiven!

Crucial

Embarrassing but at least he is in good company. Quite a few good players have worn that egg on their faces over the years. Remember Cully's shocker?

Thumb grip issue obviously.

pakman

Check out Raka try at 2 minute mark. Commentary in French.

Stargazer

@pakman Nice hat-trick, too! Haha, and Clermont-Brive wouldn't be Clermont-Brive if there weren't scuffles. Always a fierce local rivalry.

Stade Marcel-Michelin only has a capacity of about 19-20k, but it's great to see stadiums like that always full (and noisy).

Stargazer

From the few La Rochelle games I've seen this year, this is very well-deserved!
