Sorry, thought I had attached a picture from my emails.

<p>Look forward to seeing whether Mafileo has the goods at this level. The kid is one to watch for the future imo.</p>
-
<p>be good to see the Pryor brothers get a chance to square off against one another! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Stoked to see Waa on the bench, he musta put in some work in the off season!! </p> -
<p>YEah I think it was Daffy, I had heard he was highly rated but struggled with fitness (weight) and injuries last season.</p>
-
<p>Anything has to be an upgrade on Sam Prattley. Good luck to him.</p>
-
<p>Really looking forward to this game, and to the rarefied air of the Soup season in general - have taken Friday off to watch.</p>
<p>Better than the stodge served up by the likes of the NH comps - 6 nations/European Cup/Top 14 and the godawful pro 12.</p>
<p>Wales has been good - but the 8 nations draw hinders their progress.</p>
<p>Will be good to see free-spirited, creative open running rugby for a change.</p> -

<p>Don't get your hopes too high in the early stages. Some of the first rounds can produce messy crap and I am apprehensive as to the rule changes until teams get used to them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But generally, yeah I'm ready to watch some good rugby.</p> -

<p>Sorry, please remind me, which rule changes are you talking about? I'm only aware of a trial of rule changes in the Mitre10 Cup, not Super Rugby (apart from the bonus points). Did I miss something?</p>
