Superb final nerves

Will hope for a setback of 2017

Both teams get a little nervous at the l. approaching the final of this weekend

While Lions worry about getting a good start, the Canterbury team worries about the unleashing of the Lul.

Coming from behind in their semi-final, the Lions scored a few tries of their maul. Something Matt Todd does not want to see repeat this weekend.

Speaking of the season, he said: "This is a real change for them, not only for the tests, but also for their position on the field.

"When a team has great strength, as it does in this area, it takes time. (The attacking coach) Jase Ryan will come up with a good plan for us there.

The Lions also know that it's a force, Lions captain Warren Whitely alluded to it after the semifinal. the drawing board, tighten a little, we went to our rolling maul and our scrums and I think it worked well. "

Meanwhile, the Lions hope that they will come out with all the flaming weapons when Gus blows the clock, they lost 14 points behind in the early stages of their victory over the Waratahs and there are Doubts that they will be able to come back against a well-trained Saders team that aims to win consecutive championships.

Trainer Bruin's Swys put the slow start to a lack of possession by saying, "Honestly, come back to game, we've never had the ball …… .But once we got the ball, the game changed. "

Hope everything happens, whether it's slow starts or a confidence in the mauls, that the match is up to the expectations of a season finale.

I will encourage the Joberg team but I suspect that I'm hiding for nothing …..

Souths Hoping to Reprieve from QRU

Yeah, that's not it this guy they hope to have back …

As the Super Rugby season draws to a close with its grand finale, Queensland Premier Rugby is also reaching the peaks of its season.

In semi-final Uni Square with GPS then Souths

Souths filed a request with the QRU to allow David Paice to take the field

The product Darwin, which has eight tests in English to his credit , did not play the required number. for the club this. To be eligible for finals football, a player must have played at least one-third of the matches of the teams this season. With 18 rounds, he had to play 6 games but, like Karmichael Hunt, he was running out of time.

While the Souths made peace with Hunt, they asked the QRU to dispense Paice, a specialized prostitute, from being allowed to play as their other front-line actions were decimated this year . Coach Elia Tuqiri exposed the dilemma the club faces: "We lost two alternative hookers for the end-of-season injuries and we simply do not have a spare hooker at the club who can play at Premier Rugby level. "

Their case is centered on the security of the players involved with Tuqiri:" Alex Casey is our starting hooker so our application to the Queensland Rugby Union is based on security so we can have David on the bench if necessary "

The way the QRU will go is unknown, we have to consider the return if Paice arrives early and has an badault match.

For the last, either stay tuned to the largest site Rugby World, or, alternatively, go out to Ballymore on Sunday, park on the hill and enjoy an afternoon of top rugger.

Bledisloe Heads West

"Best in the West", hehe, it rhymes !!

In addition to finally coming home to the WEST of the Tasman Cup the Bledisloe is planning an even greater trip to the west in 2019.

Ok, so the first part of that can be a fantasy but the second is really true with Perth who will be getting his first test of Bledisloe next year. 19659009] At the announcement, Raelene Castle, Rugby Chief Australia, said: "This is not a test match, it is one of the most important games that the Wallabies will be competing next year.Black, but also because it is one of the last opportunities to get ready before the kickoff of the Rugby World Cup at Japan ". Australia and New Zealand launch their respective RWC campaigns on 21 September.

The match will take place on August 10 at Optus Stadium with the stadium and the government entities involved receiving a nod from Castle, "It's turned out to be one of the" going through Western Tourism Australia, the Government of Western Australia has already set up major events that have starred Perth in Western Australia. "

the world and we are proud that we can add to that on August 10 next year.

Hopefully this is another benefit for rugby in the west and the game can continue to build there after a trial period.] The prodigal son, Dane Haylett-Petty, has high hopes for the code in the west … .. that we are going to develop, there ->

Strength still to count, hopes DHP

The Force continues to produce players

While she was in Perth to launch the Bledisloe series next year, Dane Haylett-Petty spoke of his hopes of national selection for players from his homeland while trading in the world series Cricket Rugby .

The product of Perth and current "Wallaby gun with a double last name" more than Ashley-Cooper, Scott-Young and Farr-Jones before him, a tradition that started badly with Montague Mbady-Westropp who won a Lonely cap against New Zealand in 1914, probably before deciding the enlistment was a better option) is completely behind the Wallabies coach, Michael Cheika, who brings players to the match Force for the Probable vs. Likely in Sydney.

"I think it's awesome that Cheik (bringing some guys to play in this test game and I really hope the Force guys will play in the Wallabies in the near future" , he said.

The test match comes in an effort to stop the Wallabies' poor start in both the first game and then the series.Who could forget the score of 40-6 in the middle -time last year and 32-3 of 2016?

Dane Double-Barrel participated in both matches and supported the idea of ​​the pre-test. "The last two Bledisloes we probably had four weeks off between Super and Bledisloe and we were swept away in the first 20 minutes and probably not prepared enough. "(Although the Cynic may suggest that the focus be on the fact that more Australian Super Rugby Teams Can Qualify for Final …)

But Haylett-Petty did not listen s the nay-sayers adding: I think it's a great initiative to bridge that gap a bit and last year the two sides were really tight but the first 20 minutes in Sydney were not good enough. "

* I suppose DHP breaks both syllables.
