Highlights and replays - NO SPOILERS

More Portugal. This time in the Rugby Europe Championship chasing the REC ***le, but more importantly RWC qualification.

 
RWC qualifier. Russia would be eliminated with a loss. Spain would have very little chance themselves with a loss. Played in Sochi due to winter weather. Sadly no support for rugby in Sochi. :(

 
Pretty basic game for the first 5 mins of the highlights (so you may wish to skip that), then gets pretty interesting. Expansion team Dallas going for the win on their home debut which would I imagine be the first victory globally for professional side coached by a woman.

 
REC ***le decider in icey conditions. A few nice tries but weather and Covid restrictions limited the crowd.

 
Second semifinal of the Rugby Europe Supercup. Georgian Black Lions versus Iberians (drawn from three of the best Spanish clubs) for the right to play the final in Lisbon against Lusitanos of Portugal.

 
A bit of history with the first match by a professional Fijian side played on home soil. Could almost bring a tear to a glass eye.

 
1st leg of the promotion and relegation playoff between the two biggest team names in sporting history. Dynaboars seeking promotion against Laidlaw and Folau's Shining Arcs. Includes a candidate for most boneheaded penalty of the year.

 
SR semi. A Brumbies win may herald a new positive breakthrough for the Aussies or a sign of the decline of NZ rugby. Anyway, I thought this was an important match.
