Eednud Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Super Rugby starts today with the Blues v Chiefs at Eden Park in just under an hour followed by the Brumbies v Reds in Canberra. Temperature in Canberra just now is 40.6 down from a high of 41.1 C it should have dropped to 37-39 by kick-off time. They also might a smoke issue as there a state of emergency was declared earlier today due to bushfires. First time one has been declared since 2003. Watching the England v India Women’s T20 and no smoke haze and no wind so all going well it won’t affect the Brumbies game. Why they are starting the season this early is a joke and it will not help improve attendances or interest in Australia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy Snake Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) In the sevens, Scotland got a penalty try to equalise 14-14 against Australia with 4 minutes of the second half left. Kicking off they were going to get one play with Australia down to 5 men. Scotland immediately gave away a brainless penalty allowing one of the sin binned men back on, but still leaving Scotland with a man advantage. Four minutes later, final score 31-14 to Australia. Quite incredible even by Scotland standards. Edited February 1, 2020 by Jaggy Snake 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been very poor so far this season, need to beat Japan to salvage some pride. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 10 minutes into the six Nations and the refereeing is already abysmal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 jesus christ. Italy are getting nothing here. The most obvious entering the maul from the side an the officials just ignore it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
same_ol_g35 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Italy have no chance. Wales getting away with everything at the mauls and breakdown. Blatantly holding Italians in and when defending, hands all over the ball when off their feet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Decisions are going Wales way but Italy haven't suggested they have anything to offer regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Welsh scrum woeful, only winning as they got a few penalties early as the Italians got isolated 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Great start - Ireland doing their usual borderline rugby - hopefully the ref doesn't let them away with murder as they have done in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
