Well that's that then, the first competition match of the season completed. The Hurricanes won. Unfortunately they won more through their boot than their running game, which looked rather scrappy. Lets hope they improve that before the next game.

I managed to watch it by checking out the streams on Myp2p. The quality of the stream was bad but watchable for the dedicated. I am seriously considering the paysite rugbyzone.com but must first fiqure out how it works and what it costs.

Super 14 starts friday =)

I can't wait...
I will try and follow this season's Super 14 rugby tournament. It is made up of provincial teams from New Zealand, South Africa and Australia with 4 teams coming from Aus and 5 teams from NZ and South Africa respectively.

Historically the New Zealand teams have been the main contenders to take home the trophy and it is no different this year as it is the "Crusaders" tipped to win. Something, no doubt, the current holders, the South African "Bulls", are determined to prevent.



Being a Wellingtonien  by heart I have to support the team that represents that part of the country.. namely the "Hurricanes". They finished third last year... here's hoping for a better result this season.



It's now just a matter of finding a reliable stream to watch..... wish me luck.
