oh man i'm so out of the loop. sorry for not replying earlier arch.
i moved to tokyo a few months ago, and now i'm reduced to either going to shit gaijin pubs to catch the games, or just getting updates on the web.
to make things worse, i'm now living with two kiwis... which should make tri-nations time rather hostile round here.
you're right about the 'tahs arch, they never, ever finish out a season. the first half is usually impressive, but they always get shit around the half way point... which is a shame, because a 'tahs appearance in the finals might be enough to coax me home for a bit (provided they are home games).
super14 is going to be interested. i really hope it doesnt happen, but i think the perth team is not going to live up to expectations (mind you, many people said the same thing about the brumbies when that team was formed and now look at them...)... the coach situation should be interesting as well. can't wait to see it though.
japanese club rugby is fairly predicable. the stars here are all former kiwis (all of whom were rejected by the ab's). actually, its rather boring. but i'm still hanging out to catch a game or two next season.
