Not really. Think the only full union game I've watched was the 2003 world cup final.

On stadion?
I remember it I did skip school, It was cool game, but this WC was best for me.

On TV. Never been to a union game. Saw the 2008 league world cup final at the stadium, though.

I never have been on rugby game, but its on bucket list. I watch nowadays on internet, as much as can.

2023–24 United Rugby Championship
2 rounds before end of regular season and play offs


I saw to games

Sharks Durban 24-25 Treviso Benneton
Sharks got 2 bonus points, one 4 trys, other lose under 7 points.
Sometimes its weird see how South African teams play bad, what's wrong? I am happy see Italians progress and its good. Check out they national team.
Weird much in mid day in the sun, even in S Africa ist winter, its hot summer day there
After late try and conversion Benetton lead
Sharks had one final chance , but pass , player lose ball and it was over 80 min and game stopped, if he could keep it ity had chance., Rugby ends when winner team, kicks out ball after 40 and 80 minutes or looser team lose it

Pretoria Bulls 40-34 Glasgow Warriots
Warriors 2 bonus points, 4 trys and and lose under 7 points. Warriors was bad in firts one then they came back, they could win. They lead regular season to me its be hard say who wins
Warriors, Lenister or Munster in theory Bulls and Kaapstad Stormer can do it. We will see, I believe Warriors and Stormers be in the final unless they meat them selves earlyer and one of those teams will win.

Johannesburg Lions can manage play offs

Quastion is since its one game, Can S African teams play at home or must they play in Europe?

rt/comp/nrl/results

what is economical situation in Aus and NZ RU and RL teams?

Why super Rugby ha sonly one game against each team in season 7 home 7 away plus Super Round? Why not as in Europe one at home and away. 12 teams it means 24 matches, 11 at home and 11 away?

Premiership Rugby

Andy tell us more
London Irish are ineligible for a place in either the 2023–24 Champions Cup or the 2023–24 Challenge Cup, despite their table position, due to the club's off-season suspension from all competitions

I believe Newcastle Falcons only 5 points will leave league since Gloucester has 35 points.
Northampton Saints won regular season


Play offs
Semi-finals
Northampton saints - Saracens
I like Saracens. Cool name

Bath vs Sale Sharks

Final at Twickenham Stadium what is home of English rugby union




Top 14

France's bonus point system operates as follows:[2]

4 points for a win.
2 points for a draw.
1 bonus point for winning while scoring at least 3 more tries than the opponent. This replaces the standard bonus point for scoring 4 tries regardless of the match result.
1 bonus point for losing by 5 points (or fewer). The margin had been 7 points until being changed prior to the 2014–15 season.
From the 2017–18 season onwards, only the 14th placed team is automatically relegated to the Pro D2. The 13th placed team play the runner-up of the Pro D2 play-off, with the winner taking up the final place in the Top 14 for the following season

This is new to me , seems well maybe legit 3 tries more as opponent is harder to do as 4 tries at game, maybe its logic, but I am use to 4 tries get ponus point

Regular season will end 8 June 2024

This weekend ends United Rugby Championship regular season. It will be cool. I will talk about all play offfs

Challange Cup Tier 2

Gloucester Rugby 22-36 Sharks Durban
There will be years when S African teams be bad, and years when they will take all.
After group stage this was more like S Africa in WC good machine, play smart, slow and dont waist energy and do what have to do.
Gloucester late 2 tries was to latte to win, in dying minutes Sharks get try.

They are champions

European Rugby Champions Cup Tier 1

Leinster 22–31 (a.e.t.) Toulouse
3th time in competition history its extra time. Toulouse won 6 times and its record Leinster has 4.

Game was sloppy due sun, I hate watch sport at sun, thats why we need roofs. 1th was bad defense, take care about own and not adventure,
In end when it was 15-15 Leinster player missed drop goal, from more as mid field, if he would score, it would be a hellowa win.
Overtime was well, Toulouse had more fuel .

Short Super Rugby season is probably because they play more internationals. Don't know about NZ, but Aus union isn't so good financially these days.
The NRL has 27 rounds, 17 teams, and each gets 3 byes each. They play about half the teams twice and other half once.

In Europe they play international to, what's different?

Andy I just heard that London Irish and London Wasp was banned from premiership rugby. Tell me why?

They entered administration, or lack of funds to compete.

Sad, loosing g those teams, will good Saracens are there, but still.
Why Scotland can manage 2 teams in United Rugby Championship. Glasgow Warriors and Edinburgh, thought they could have 4 teams.
