Colossal, epic, sensational – these are just a few words that have been used to describe the brutal battle between the Wallabies and the Springboks this Sunday. This is poetry in motion. The Tri-Nations Champions against the defending World Cup Champions. You could not ask for a greater contest.  

I have been slightly out of the loop as I have been preparing for my matric mock exams but have I missed something? Why is Peter de Villiers punishing Gio Aplon and Francois Louw?

The Springboks 39-20 defeat against the Wallabies can be summed up in one word- EISH! But seeing as I am required to write a bit more than "EISH!", let’s explore it in more detail.

The hype surrounding this weekend’s semi-final between the Stormers and the Crusaders seems to grow each day. Not too many journalists are hopeful about the Stormers chances and I will admit that the Crusaders are the one team I did not want to have to face twice. But what’s done is done and we have a mammoth task awaiting us this weekend.
