Went to my first game of Super Rugby last night. I was actually surprised at how poor some of the handling/skill errors were by the Rebels. Having said that, I thought the Blues were an impressive outfit. I haven't followed the fortunes of the Super Rugby clubs for a while, are the Blues anticipated to be up there this year?

Blues are a good side but it is hard to tell how much of it was the Blues being good or the Rebels being terrible...

I think the Rebels should move heaven and earth to get Beale back. Play him at 15 and put Debreczeni at 10, then we could have 9 Sirzaker, 10 Debreczeni, 11 English, 12 Hodge, 13 Inman, 14 Naivalu and 15 Beale

Team with a losing record making the finals ahead of a team with twice as many wins would be a bad look.

Routed the Jaguares in Argentina to pretty much sew up the conference once again.
Really can't see us troubling anyone in the finals though
