Front Row Grunt

@dylanvdspuy14 @SardieqWP Nope. Sad. Looks like none of the U23 league will be televised. Crazy

@FrontRowGrunt @SardieqWP Will the 2nd game be televised?

Very convincing from Bulls, Lions and Sharks ... Now for Storm to join the party ... Should be a fun day with Storm being the curtain raiser to the XXIII side hosting the Sea Wolves from the US of A ...

That's factually why we watch rugby! Storm literally used Dragons as a plough to score a tighthead pushover. Spectacular 🦍💪🏻

@ZAAfrikaner To my mind that's after the hit ... Which would have Sharks going early

@FrontRowGrunt One can clearly see the Munster player not taking the hit and going backwards thus rendering the Sharks player to drop to his knees...

Scrum battle perhaps the most intriguing of one sided affair in Durbs. Especially before they brought on the heavy hitters. Sharks edged it for sure, but Munster were competitive. Tough call this one ... They clearly take the hit, then Sharks over extend, and drop knee

@ManusLeRoux Beautiful to watch

@FrontRowGrunt It was quite spectacular to see what diff Koch and Ox made. Reverse gear all the way.

Jeez whizz ... Munster were embarrassingly inept yesterday. Hacked to find a lineout jumper, and when they did, maul set up was worse than Eskom's collection of revenue for services rendered ...

@henzeroZA Not sure they want us any more. And that travel was horrific

@FrontRowGrunt Hows about we put together 2 teams from all the other unions and join Super rugby?

Four years out of franchise rugby hitting Cheetahs where it counts ... Likely to retrench 12 staff ... 41 contracted players are safe for the time being, but can't be a fun scenario for them ...

@Forest__O_O @TaitaCap They also have excellent park and ride facilities

@TaitaCap @FrontRowGrunt Its not that bad during the day and when the boks play at night its crawling with police so its also not bad Personally I still have hope that we'll finally get a competent government in this year's elections but otherwise id be OK with a new stadium

Supersport getting pretty good at not including images of the stands at games taking place at Ellis Park ...

@TaitaCap Community Stadium ... Don't know Jozi well, but all the varsities have amazing facilities. As do most clubs ... It's complex given commercial requirements, and that their contracted juniors live at the stadium

@FrontRowGrunt Whats the solution to this Ellis Park issue? The area will continue to degrade, it will only get worse... I won't take my family there (we live in Jhb). The last time we went was about 10 years ago. Can a new (or other) stadium ever be on the cards? 🫤

@JacquesMaree73 Bwahahahahah .... France are leading the charge, so we are safe from World Rugby ... For a bit

Carlu Sadie coming in at 138kg, while JJ van der Mescht takes the scale damage to 145kg's!

@DominicWard14 Rassie loves a wide, wide net ... I would not read too much into it

@FrontRowGrunt Is this an indication of a Bok November touring team which rests established Boks (ahead of RWC 2027) and features promising newcomers instead, I wonder?

Carlü Sadie and JJ van der Mescht invited to first virtual Bok alignment camp Sadie currently plying his trade in France with Bordeaux Begles, while Van der Mescht playing for the Northampton Saints in England

@Gianci28 Unconvinced ... But let's see

@FrontRowGrunt JJ, under the right conditioning program, would be amazing.

@maxalexander44 Lots ... Can scrum, mobility improving ... Boks have plenty stock at tighthead though

@FrontRowGrunt Watched Sadie play? Looks good on paper..

Adding more than a little ballast to the programme!
