    Rugby Rule Question - Restart full reverse

    I was watching a clip from the Heartland Championship where a restart got caught in a gust of wind and was blown directly back towards the restarters' try line and it bounced all the way dead past the posts and try area. What the hell would a referee do in this case? 22 drop? scrum at halfway...

    Relative conference performance

    yeah you can't include games when they're playing themselves, that just squashes all the stats.

    Playing inside centre

    All I can say is make sure you work on your ability to take down anyone you come in contact with. You're the man they count on to not miss tackles.

    Oh, no, that's all the picks so far. I'm just Smith and O'Connor.

    It's for a game. But yeah, if it was earlier in the season this would be quite fun to use for both purposes.

    Nice choice. He went 3rd, right before my first pick (I picked Conrad Smith)

    The best players in Super Rugby

    If you had to build a team around a single player, who would it be? Another thing that should be considered is this. I have more picks in the draft later on, so ideally I want to snatch up a player who won't be around later. For example, I feel like Stephen Moore won't get picked right away, so...

    The best players in Super Rugby

    I mean at the moment, I'm mostly supplementing knowledge for use in a fantasy serpentine draft. I have the 4th overall pick and I'm trying to decide who I might want to take. So far Carter has been taken. A reds fan is up at the moment, and then my housemate, who doesn't know much about rugby...

    The best players in Super Rugby

    Period. Like, good to the point where other players can't really compare at their position. I don't want to hear about 5 flyhalfs, or 5 backs. I'd like to hear about at least one guy with a number 5 or less on his back.

    super 15 on usa tv?

    Very little from the world cup, and most of it on tape delay. You also need a certain cable provider to get a few of the channels. To get all the world cup stuff you had to pay like $125 dollars or something ridiculous. I'm sure the next one will be better. However, if you get the right...

    super 15 on usa tv?

    I go to California-Davis. I was playing on the Rugby team for like 3 months but then I got sick for a few weeks and when I went home for break we learned we couldn't afford it, so I had to quit the team. Most of the collegiate teams are funded purely by player fundraising and dues, and community...

    Talk About Your Teams!

    Cool, if anyone agrees, disagrees, or has anything to add, please do so. Also, I need an Aussie to do something here, and I'll have all the teams. My roommate and I read through all of the teams, and ended up equating them to some American teams. For example, the Hurricanes have been deemed...

    Talk About Your Teams!

    Cool, thanks. This should really help, I wish I could get this kind of thing for every tournament! Now I just need to hope I get a couple Aussies and South Africans too. My roommate has friends from Australia so he'll likely be picking one of their teams but everyone else are wild cards.
