I think the Western Force stretched Australian rugby enough, a fifth Australian side would be overkill IMO.

definetly agree, the western Force decimated the Reds when they first arrived, the reds are just now starting to recover (though the efforts on the field dont really show it)

a fifth team would be over kill, and if based in Melbourne i think it would struggle to survive. Australia needs an APC competition to be in full swing before it could field another super team imo. Pity such a thing costs so much.

Tahs Stormers was one of the worst games I've ever seen. Complete shower of ****e and no wonder no one turns up to watch the Waratahs. Stormers are complete rubbish, their backline is a disgrace and that Fijian winger is making money under false pretenses.

Chiefs Lions game was a great watch, Lions for the second week running don’t know how to win a game and lose from a seemingly impossible position but Louis Ludik (or Stefan Terblanche) should play 15 for the Boks against the Lions. Top talent.

Chiefs vs Lions was the only game I watched in its entirety this weekend. Had anticipated the Lions being thumped but they were committed and created some brilliant tries, with Ludik and Fourie especially threatening. Was hoping somewhat that they could hang onto their lead for longer but with so much territory in the final half hour the Chiefs were eventually going to go ahead. Worrying for the Chiefs though, they can certainly score tries but their defence is still shaky - three weeks in a row they've won AND conceeded a four try bonus point to the opposition - and I can't help but feel that when they face the Bulls and Stormers in South Africa after the bye, that defence could be their downfall.

Fantasy Rugby Standings after Week Eight:
The Fen Brumbies (BoyBrumby) 1,733
Somerset (Somerset) 1,674
PSV Eindhoven (Simon) 1,073

Brumby breaks away from me again after I closed it to within a handful of points the previous week. I have a $430,000 team value advantage though which could be important in the last few rounds...

Indeed, Andy friend (The coach) was told of his passing on the flight back from South Africa and he had to break it to the rest of the guys when they landed, would have been terrible, especially as TT mentioned, it was thought he was improving and would be back in aus in a few weeks.
