Title: Anyone Catch the Rugby?
Post by: Deuce'sScoundral on September 30, 2007, 11:12:09 PM
Zomfg!!! I don't care how well we played, did you see Brian Habana getting left in the dust in a straight race? I felt like crawling into a dark corner and crying. Brian was the fastest guy in world rugby, and he got beat by that Zimbabwean American.

Anyway, whaddya think sofar of the world cup? I think the first two games we played well, but then sort of lost the plot. Even against America, I think we just weren't playing at our best.

Yeah that was great. I was cheering away with the Americans during that run.
Takudzwa Ngwenya runs 100m in 10.5secs. How fast can Habana do 100 in?

I think this is the first time ever I found myself cheering for the boks.
The Amercan team is the only team (in any sport) that I hate more than the boks.

Is it just me or.....cant they put a rugby team with actual americans in it together.
listen to them sing the national anthem...the ones who attempted it.
that didnt sound like american accents to me!

So far the worldcup has been to  easy for the first-tier nations.
nice that argentina got thru - boys earned it.
now we will see what rugby is.

Coz the Sables haven't made the Rugby world cup since the early 90's & that was just coz RSA had sporting sanctions.
I'd play for the Eagles too if I were him.

Witness in silence, why don't yous support the boks? They have a really good chance of winning the cup this time.

Brian Habana is more than just raw pace (ie. Ngwenya), he's also great on defense, and unusually strong for a winger- the dude bench presses 160kg!!! He's probably the best winger in world rugby.

Anyway, it's a real pity we don't have Pierre Spies there, imagine what he could do!

SA vs. Fiji, gonna be a great game, Fiji is my second favourite team, after the boks ofcourse!

The duel between Zimbabwe-born Ngwenya and Habana was always going to be a fascinating one, and it provided arguably the moment of the tournament in the first half of yesterday's clash in Montpellier. Habana had just gone over in Ngwenya's corner to put South Africa 24-3 up when flanker Todd Clever launched a breakaway from the Eagles' 22.

Via Mike Hercus, the ball ended up in the hands of Ngwenya, who found himself one on one with Habana. Ngwenya teased his opposite number by feinting inside, before dabbing on the accelerator and flying past Habana on the outside to ground under the posts. It brought the crowd to their feet and was probably the try of the World Cup so far.

As Ngwenya celebrated with his team-mates, Habana remained on the floor, his head buried face-first into the ground knowing his reputation had been slightly marred by the US player.

"I was thinking of kicking but then I thought I would try and get him to stop, and then gas him out wide," Ngwenya said. "And he did stop. It's not that I'm fast, I just got him to stop so that worked pretty well. I knew he would be annoyed. If I got beaten by a slower person, I'd be annoyed."

I've always supported the All Blacks - way back when Zinzan Brook & Andrew Mehrtens were playing.
