<p>Fucking Sunwolves.<br><br>
Not fit enough. Did enough to win, but just couldn't keep up in the last 5 minutes.</p>

<p>They were so close! Considering what the expectations were of the Sunwolves at the beginning of the season, a draw is not that bad. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>How big was the crowd in Singapore (I only saw the last minutes of the game)? I know S'pore is only a pseudo home for the Sunwolves and forced upon them by the Saffas, but it is really not helping the Sunwolves. It just adds extra travel to their already awful schedule.</p> -

<p>TJPs passing is so slow at the moment. Really dulls the attack.</p>

<p>I think that his indecision is because of poor organization of the runners. Hard to identify where the pass should go.</p> -

It's not indecision. You can boil an egg while he picks the ball up, winds back and lobs it slowly. <br>
I would say that the ball runners find it hard to time not the other way around -

<p>Stormers score a try at the death, convert the try and .... it's a draw: 17 all. </p>

<p>The Stormers are the Africa 1 conference leaders, so they get a home play-off game if they stay on top, but they can't even beat the bloody Sunwolves twice!</p>

<p>Sharks burgle a win over the Jaguares with a last gasp scrum penalty.</p>

<p>I only watched bits and pieces of this but seemed like some mystifying work from both ref and TMO - including the very long knock-on advantage that led to the winning scrum.</p> -

The Jaguares are unlucky, they okay in the South African conference with South African referees in most of the games. They got completely reffed out of a game in which they were clearly the better side this morning.<br><br>
Not the first time either -

<p>Barrett can f off in regards to kicking. Give Woodward the duties. Barrett's cost us way too many points and he will continue to lose us those bigger games i.e. Chiefs and Highlanders - we would have won if he got his kicks over, its as simple as that. Or bring Black in and send Barrett to Fullback.</p>

<p>If Rennie can take the kicking duties away from Cruden then Boyd should feel OK with doing the same for Barrett. It's about winning games and he's cost us two at least this season</p> -

<p>They have to change it now before it's too late.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He cost us the Final last year as well because he couldn't knock over those kicks. You think the coaches would have learnt that Barrett is not the answer.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Why don't they give the duties to Woodward, that will allow Barrett to focus solely on his game management and it will probably result in an increase in form.</p> -
<p>I would have Woodward over both Marshall and Jane. He seems to offer alot more. Just needs to work on his finishing. Botched a few tries this year but he has also created a few opportunities. I find that Woodward grows in confidence the more he plays. </p>

<p>Woodward has to make the team first. Still the old saying goes the first player selected is your goalkicker and the second player is your back up goalkicker.</p>

<p>For the AB's, I think the first player picked is your halfback these days</p> -

<p>I think a good dose of his money comes from endorsements. I can't really find anything on his Reds pay though, but if they've paid a lot for him, they're obviously not getting their money's worth.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think he'd be close to the slowest fullback in the comp. I'm not sure if he's the sort of fullback that thrives in a comp like Super Rugby.</p>
