Front Row Grunt

@wcsteyn007 No idea ... Did not watch a lot of the SA Cup

@FrontRowGrunt Who’s coaching the valke this year? They looked much better that previous years

SWD under Heyneke Meyer were the surprise package, and came agonisingly close, but it's the Cheetahs, Boland, Griquas and Pumas who qualified for the 2026 Currie Cup Premier Division by ending top 4 in the SA Cup.

@andrewhdonohoe True ... Both shouting for each other :)

@FrontRowGrunt Ulster need a Stormers favour too

With Leinster and the Bulls likely to pick up 5, Storm may have just become the biggest Ulster supporters around ... Could do them a massive favour by upsetting Glasgow in Belfast!! And they will likely need a win to stay in the top 8!! Feisty!

@ruggaman96 Interesting ... Not heard that one

@FrontRowGrunt Doesn’t matter if stormer finish 2nd to Glasgow.glasgow will not host a final due to no free stadiums so who ever finishes 2nd to Glasgow will have a home final

CANAL+ renews agreement with SARU that will see SuperSport continue to be the only official broadcast rights holder for all SARU’s domestic competitions and Springbok women’s and junior age-group matches in Sub-Saharan Africa ... Gap for SABC to show Bok games?

@rhinostove Going into the round, they were

@FrontRowGrunt Log leaders?

Hells Bells ... What a game of rugby! Ulster v Storm had everything! Saffers Kok and Augustus just brilliant for the home side. Obviously would have preferred 5, but 3 points on the road for the log leaders is one they will take

Storm scrum might not have notched up pens, but that pressure made life very difficult for Ulster ... Yes he knocked one on, but Sacha was back to his imperious best. That tackle might have been hus best moment! That's work rate and commitment

@glennrgoldberg I know it's a cliche, but you literally can't keep them all. It's proper money over there, and people leave for multiple reasons, not all rugby related

@FrontRowGrunt Why did we ever let both of them go. We need a wing like Werner Kok

@KelRo736 @BedalPaul Plus the resources and time afforded to junior rugby nowadays ... Not always been the case ... But when Rassie got results because of the resources he demanded, I think the powers that be followed suite with the juniors

@BedalPaul @FrontRowGrunt 4 Were the Baby Boks missing players?

And that's a wrap ... Baby Boks have already won the U20 Rugby Champs!

@KelRo736 @BedalPaul Markus Muller for one ... Plus a few others playing in the URC, and 2 injured I think ... Depth in SA is just next level

@BedalPaul That's the best that each country has to offer (one could argue that the Baby Boks have more to come with the players that are playing URC rugby), and the Baby Boks are just streets ahead of the other 3 sides

@FrontRowGrunt Couple questions. 1 Did the other 3 teams bring their B teams 2 If not, are the just very poor 3 If not, are we just that much better. Thank you

Sensational scrum from Baby Bok bomb squad ...

Rambo feasting on some properly under cooked Aussie ribs! Aus tighthead literally cannot hold his weight through the scrum set up process. Twice, illegally, put his hand on Rambo to stabilise himself

Going to watch Baby Boks live in any case, but was just checking in prior to the teams running out @ NMB Stadium

Bordeaux v Bath with SA commentary? Surely there are non French options coming with the feed?

Ella, Ella, Ella ... Zero reward for clear Argentine scrum dominance!

Great point by Matt Pearce ... How often do we hammer a player for a deliberate knock? But when it gets a lucky bounce off the hand, the player is a hero!
