    Super Rugby: Bulls vs. Stormers in Pretoria (22/02/2013)

    Yeah swings and roundabouts as they say, it's unfortunate but them's the breaks in Rugby. Hopefully the ref gets a decent punishment, but you just gotta take it and play the rest of the season. Even Allistair didn't use the try as an excuse, saying bulls seemed more clinical and we were too...

    Super Rugby: Chiefs vs. Cheetahs in Hamilton (02/03/2013)

    Wow, that has to be the most afrikaans afrikaner boer name ever, brilliant. I mean I am an afrikaner and I love our culture, but that's some name :P

    Super Rugby: Sharks vs. Stormers in Durban (02/03/2013)

    Actually I'm picking the Sharks to take this game, I don't doubt we've got what it takes to beat the sharks, but I think this season we're starting slow, we'll hopefully end up with a good winning streak after these first few tough games, but I think the sharks might just be a few points too...

    Super Rugby: Kings vs. Force in Port Elizabeth (23/02/2013)

    Now now, As much as we all know the Kings are most likely going to take a hiding in their first year of Super Rugby, don't count them out on the chance of actually winning the relegation matches. They lost to the lions pre season sure, but only by about 4 points, and after this season is done...

    Fox Sports fantasy Super Rugby 2013

    Quick question, I'm sure it's somewhere on that site but I can't seem to find it. If I have three locks in my team (two in the actual team and one in reserve) each from a different team, will only the two in the actual team be making me any points, or will the player on the bench get subbed in...

    Minimum wages

    So I've been chatting to a girl at my dance studio who used to live in Brisbane as well for close to something like a decade. Seems like a wonderful city, I really need to go visit at some point, I was planning on saving up for a trip to New York, but perhaps I should do Australia, although it...

    Minimum wages

    yeah the quality of living thing is probably even a bigger factor than the money to be honest, I absolutely cannot imagine living without a 6 foot wall around my home with no gate or burglar proof windows or any sort of decent security, I've just been through too much crap over here for my brain...

    Minimum wages

    Yeah no obviously I wouldn't go over to earn a minimum wage, I work in the insurance industry, so I'm not exactly sure what they make over there, but it ought to be more. actually, I should go read up on what service consultants or intermediaries make over there, just for interest sake.

    Minimum wages

    Yeah it seems renting is pretty expensive over there. I basically live in Centurion CBD (although Centurion is much more of a residential business district with it being nowhere near the capacity of say Johburg, which is a lot more expensive as I gather) in a nice enough area, renting a 2...

    Warm up matches

    A shame really, but the lack of funds in rugby these days simply means you are doomed to eternal mediocrity, no one wants to play in the middle of nowhere for next to nothing in pay. I do enjoy watching the griquas cuase their annual upsets though, they almost always seem to knock either the...

    Minimum wages

    Yeah well NZ seem to be no slouches in the minimum wages department either. Let me give an example of what minimum wage is in SA (they do quickly cover it if you follow the link I posted as well). A farm worker now earns a minimum wage of R1376 per month that's 150.4 AUD per month, if you work...

    Minimum wages

    Ok I finally figured it out, I finally get why -everyone- from south africa is constantly emmigrating to Australia (apart from it being exactly like SA in terms of climate minus the record breaking crime stats). Minimum wages. Honestly, got this from BusinessTech this morning (apparently these...

    Fox Sports fantasy Super Rugby 2013

    err, I probably missed it somewhere in this thread, but can I join your pool or group or however this newgangled fox sports thing works ? I know I'm late, but unlike Superbru it can't really affect the points you get joining late can it ?

    Wait what ? How can I deny you sending me a PM (and why would I do that haha), I have noticed my PM system has been fudged for years though, not sure why, I see I've got a new one, will read now after lunch EDIT: Ok so I've accepted your invite, that might have been the problem, try sending...

    Fox Sports fantasy Super Rugby 2013

    Bleh, made a pathetic 10 points with the first match, and ended up on only 142 for the round. Scott Higginbothom, you disappoint me. Now to start transfering my Saffa and NZ players in there, although I'm thinking of keeping my brumbies, they seem to be on fire, especially stephen moore (who's...

    Super Rugby: Bulls vs. Stormers in Pretoria (22/02/2013)

    Hehe was just about to post the same thing Gena, That was a fantastic win by the Stormers, with Habana scoring the winning try if I recall correctly :P I feel this is gonna be a really tough one to call, we've had the Bulls number the past few games, but they seem to be really fired up this...

    Fox Sports fantasy Super Rugby 2013

    wait, Supersport has fantasy rugby ? Why did I not know of this, is it any good ? I found that the Fox one seems to be pretty detailed in the way the points are allocated according to each player's stats per game

    Southern Kings 2013

    Yeah but when you take an objective view on the whole situation, SARU are the ones who effed up, I agree that the kings don't get a free pass just because, but I also get why they feel aggrieved. Don't hate on the Kings because the Lions dropped out, that was SARU, they're the ones who promised...
