SUPER-RUGBY 2011 WEEK 5 http://ruggachick.com/ http://twitter.com/RuggaChick In the Headlines: http://www.skysports.com http://www.3news.co.nz My Match Report: The Road is looking shaky for the Canes, they only featured for the 1st 20 min of this game! After that the home side thought them a rugby lesson and produced a superb spell of ruby when they dotted down 6 tries, to clinch their 2nd Super Rugby Victory. They might have got off to a slow start but the Reds are on FIRE!! By halftime they already had the bonus point in the bag and the only positive point for the Cheetahs were their scrums.Other than that the Reds ripped their defensive line apart, dominated position and used their Speed to run in 6 tries, securing that top spot in the Australian Conference! Blues Lock Anthony Celebrated his 50th Super Rugby game, but the Blues really had to put some effort in to clinch this victory and they started at Discipline!

This match was full of handling and tactical errors which lead to a kicking contest between Giteau and Beale, with 12 all at half-time.Then Brumbies hit back with a late try to level the scorers with 3 min on the clock, but some Magic managed to seal the win for the Tahs. Even though if was Nathan Sharps big day (editing: Nathan Sharpe's record-setting 137th Super Rugby appearance), the Stormer’s didn’t have any mercy and were on attack from the 1st whilste.The Force had their hands full whilst the home-side powered over six tries. The Stormers remain unbeaten and comfortably lead the South-African conference. Well the Lions brought the Bulls a game, but it was clear that the men in Blue were not the same team that lost a few in a row.They gave the Lions a go with their expertise in the line-outs and Morne happen to be back to his 100% strike rate.Elton Jantjies kicked a few monster penalties, but his side made curtail mistakes, which have the Bulls the upper-hand ...
