Great win by NZ in the weekend. The ultimate Test in rugby, beating South Africa at the old Ellis Park.
All Blacks win % the last couple of years is insanely good. As well as a long list of titles and trophies. Could make a strong case for one of the greatest sporting teams of alltime in any sport.
Great win for Edinburgh against Munster to get their European campaign off to a great start! Glasgow and Edinburgh really do have decent squads these days.
Edinburgh are on the rise no doubt. Always have a soft spot for Scottish, Irish, Welsh rugby as they are passionate and respecful people generally when it comes to rugby. Have ancestors from that part of the world too.
In the next 7 days, the highlights are : The 2nd full round of Heineken Cup games for the season. The ITM Cup finals.
The Currie Cup finals and one big International NZ v Australia at the relatively new covered stadium in Dunedin.
I'm familiar with a few of your players. Namely Aleki Lutui, ball of energy, great with the ball in hand, must be getting on abit now though. WP Nel have seen abit of too. As well as all the guys who have played alot for Scotland.
Don't watch much European rugby, aside from the 6 nations and other Internationals. Would love to, but am usually asleep when its on and if sports not live, I'm not one to watch much on delay.
Not a good result, last Bledisloe Cup Match in Dundedin, a dead rubber, NZ beat Australia 41-33.
High scoring match that seemed close, but Australia never really had a chance of leading or winning.

It was an Improvement though. The last 2 outings. Wouldn't be surprised to see significant Improvements in the Wallabies in the next 2 years under McKenzie. I rate him as a coach.
Couple of major Internationals this week. Japan hosts The All Blacks and England hosts Australia.
