This is a biased look at Rugby (from a Gamma point of view...hence the fuschia) and I make no apologies for that. Go The Wallabies! Go The Brumbies!...and ouch...Stephen Larkham...

Super 14: Round 5 Fixtures (scrum-ptious pi)

March 14th 2008 02:00
Happy International Pi Day Everyone!....and that would be pi as in the mathematical constant...not meat/potatoe/cherry.

Super 14 Round 5 Happy pi Day!


Why today March 14?
Well...Pi Day is observed on March 14 (3/14 in American date format), due to pi being equal to roughly 3.14.


Cool huh? On with the sweet as pi and just as briliant Super 14... and apologies for the lack of commentary. I'm halfway up a mountain that looked like a molehill...

Friday March 14th

Chiefs (NZ) v Stormers (SA)
Waikato Stadium, Hamilton,
LIVE at 5:30pm AEST Fox Sports 2

Last meeting: February 16, 2007 (Cape Town) – Stormers 21-16 Chiefs

Did the Stormers get lucky v the Reds last week?...or are they really playing Rugby? The Chiefs may be running out of steam.

Stormers to win.

Hurricanes (NZ) v The Brumbies

at Canberra Stadium, Canberra,
LIVE at 7:30pm AEST Fox Sports 2

Last meeting: Hurricanes 11-10 in Wellington, February 23, 2007

Oh boy. The forecast calls for pain. For the Brumbies to win this...they need Stephen Larkham a miracle Stephen Larkham. And they need to win this. (2nd last match before their bye)
They're on home ground but the Canes are looking dangerous. Anywhere.

Go The Brumbies!! Even if they don't win...

Saturday March 15th

Blues (NZ) v Western Force

at North Harbour Stadium, Auckland,
LIVE at 3:30pm AEST Fox Sports 2

Last meeting: Blues 33-6 in Perth, May 4, 2007

The Force didn't lose too badly v The Crusaders last week. Let's hope they grow from that because the Blues are feeling bruised after their loss to the Sharks.

Blues will win. Just in case they don't...The Force will.



Crusaders (NZ) v Cheetahs (SA)
at AMI Stadium, Christchurch,
LIVE at 5:30pm AEST Fox Sports 2

Last meeting: Crusaders 49-28 in Bloemfontein, February 24, 2007

Oh come on! Is this a Rugby match or a public flogging?

...but...are the Crusaders getting cocky and therefore complacent? If so, the Cheetahs may stand a chance. About as much chance as I have of getting picked for the Wallabies. It could happen but only if I'm the last human left standing.

Crusaders by default. Goliath wins this.

Qld Reds v Bulls (SA)

at Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane 8.05pm
LIVE at 7:30pm AEST Fox Sports 2

Last Meeting: Bulls 92-3 in Pretoria, May 5, 2007
This stat is no joke.

I don't think it will be as bad as their last meeting but the Reds need to get angry...otherwise that koala is going to say "you clipped us" (say it fast)...

Really really want the Reds to win. I don't think they will....but stranger things have happened. Their full strength side lost against the Foals (Brumbies...).

Sunday March 16th

LIONS (SA) v SHARKS (SA)
at Ellis Park, Johannesburg,
LIVE at 2:00am AEST Fox Sports 2

Last meeting: Sharks 33-3 in Durban, April 28, 2007

Daaaaa dum. Daaaaa dum. dun dun dun dun dun...you know where I'm going with this right?

As Brody (Roy Scheider RIP) would tell the Lions...you're gonna need a bigger boot.

Sharks to win by 2 arms and a leg.

BYE: NSW WARATAHS, HIGHLANDERS (NZ)
