Rugby Analysis

k there is a lot of rugby that was played this weekend but now here is facts that is been noticed… Firstly Aus Vs New Zealand… Wallibies Had a magor amount of Possession and Territory but lost the match? why? Answer is simple. Counter attack of New Zealand is a major facter New Zealand Thrive on there counter attack Although they looked Very Average they clored out a victory against a world class Aus team… 

Score: Aus 28-29 New Zealand.

Secondly Lions vs Sharks very onesided afair lions THUMPED sharks at all aspects of the game… for a Semi Final Sharks looked weakend. here  are few things sharks messed up. Forward play was pothetic, drop goal attempts where you hve and overlap that would be a deffinate try can always cost you.

Score: Lions 50-20 Sharks 

Rugby festive weeekend

 

Well we saw a crazy weekend if everyone knows Ewin Mckenzi Resigned with imediat effect witch is bad news and sad for Wallibies Concidering they had every All Black fan worried this weekend. But i am going to ask what went wrong for both teams that were on that field on Saturday. was it that the All Blacks thought they had to just show up and gain the win? well to me the All Blacks Problem is now they getting predictable and its sad concidering they number one… Aus had the problem of there 10 point lead… they couldve carried and streched the lead… They had territory, Possetion and more importantnly they had the crowd on there side… so what went wrong? Simple Aus got sloppy on Deffence where new Zealand were desperate on Attack…that ultimately was the difference in the Game All Blacks are never a team to write off butthey are getting predictable witch is showing now.

Sad weekend for sport

Ok Let’s start with rugby. The game that was meant to be the more entertaining game turned out to be the Freak show!!! Boks vs all Blacks 1…. 29-15 to All Blacks… Yes they Deserved it but the reff was pathetic!!!! The more entertaining game was Aus vs Argentina. 14-13 but what a game. I believe that game was special because both teams Were down and out and played with Passion that I never knew existed.

IRB seadings for 2015

To IRB seadings should be done in a draw not via Rankings…

Teams like SA and New Zealand (1 and 2) and England (5). Should be the only Teams that Automatically sead in Pool A, B and C.

That may Make the world Cup pools more Competitive Because that way Teams like France and Aus may end the same pool for example. If IRB do that more people will tune in to more intresting pools….

Teams disapointing me…

There were some disapointing performances this passed weekend…

Let’s start with the Boks… Ireland went into half time with a 9 point lead (12-3) the boks shouldve played 80 minute rugby not only 40 minute rugby.

Secondly yes all blacks won 51-22 but if the played like the supposed 2… They couldve done more damage….

Aus and France… I knew France were going to win but hell not as far as they did… What does that say about Southern Hemisphere Rugby… That was Pathetic!!!!

Are Sharks Chokers?

Do we consider sharks being chokers now?

Sharks are a good side… Played Super Rugby final and currie cup Final. But they did not win any of the 2. Do we say they chokers?

For the passed 3 years Sharks have become an infamous force in SA rugby Date back to 2010 when sharks almost made Semis of super rugby and won Currie Cup.

Last year in Currie Cup Sharks made finals and got thumped by lions… 42-17… This year sharks made both Finals and lost…

So to my viewers please write your opinions and Comment…

The Lower ranked nations need more Exposure.

Why are the higher ranked nations so strong compared to lower nations?

Answer to that is lack of exposure and game time… You can’t even blame the coaches because coaches don’t get experience. Portugal, Namibia, Japan and USA those teams have the players and potential to be top contenders with South Africa and New Zealand.

If you ask me I’d say that USA has a high population and they have more than enough people to chose from to make great rugby players… So If I were IRB I would say let those teams Compete a series of 3 matches against top contenders and give them advice and coaching clinics.

That is my view on how to expand rugby.

Why are All Blacks so good?

Why are the All Blacks doing better than The Boks? Boks have a gold mine of Talent here….

Reason for the All Blacks Success is because Firstly the coaches Communicate. Look at their Super Rugby teams. They have the same game pattern. Which is why their international players can blend so well. Secondly… They go out and search for new talent yearly and they groom those youngsters.
Thirdly they rotate their players… The All Black team can send out their second team and they will do just as well as their A team.

Now if the Boks did that we would be the number 1 team in the world… The Boks did that in Jake whites days and found Frans Steyn and many more youngsters…

What went wrong with the Bulls?

What went wrong with the bulls?

I can answer that for you… Bulls had it stuck in their minds that they will lose the game because Mr price kings park is the shark fortress… Second problem… You can’t up and under the ball in wet weather… That will lead to knock on’s and may as well cost you Ball Possession as well as you will 10 to 1 lose all that field possession…
Sharks were a much better team on the day… The score board said it. 20-3 bulls were undisciplined and could only get a penalty in the 65th minute.

Well done Sharks you even had me congratulate you.

Home or away match is irrelivant…

Why do people or teams worry about home ground advantage in rugby?

To me it doesn’t matter… Only differences are the fields and surface… Sometimes its the weather.

All Blacks are the only team that play with the right mentality… They don’t care where they play… To them you have a field, its 120 meters long (in goal included) and they have posts… Now my question is if All Blacks can win all there home and away matches why can’t the other teams….

To me History is stuck to much in the other teams minds… History is not meant to decide the result on the day. The scores are 0-0 and the better team wins… That’s what decides the result not the history….
