Super 14 Week 3 Results

There’s really no reason to comment on these posts where I post the scores and a brief summary of the Super 14 weekend results so I don’t know if it’s a waste of my time to relay that information or if I should just put the scores up and call it a day. So I’m [...]

This Friday the thirteenth Super 14 Rugby starts and then Saturday there is a full slate of games including my Stormers (Cape Town, South Africa) taking on the hated and typically awesome Sharks (Durban, South Africa).
