I hope you all enjoyed the truckload of rugby since yesterday afternoon :)

The rugby fest began with the Bulls thumping the Hurricanes (21-12) - so much for my tip! The Bulls played a hard defensive game and were obviously very hungry for a win. Good luck to them - they deserved to win the game.

Round 4 glamour event between the Crusaders and the Blues saw the Canterbury boys win by 41- 19 in front of the Auckland boys' home crowd. The clash was entertainingly fast and furiously paced as the old rivals tried to better each other. Ali Williams copped a red card in the second half for a stomp on Richie McCaw's head in the ruck. McCaw had a top game for the Crusaders, and Aaron Mauger was superb as well.

The Waratahs 25-10 had a good win over the Stormers (back luck Hansie :) and they remain on top of the Super 12 ladder after Round 4. They didn't pick up a bonus point, but they were certainly impressive on the paddock. They managed to pinch a pile of lineout balls, and Morgan Turinui scored a try in each half - he seems to grow with confidence every game. Phil Waugh, Nathan Grey, and Lote Tuqiri were awesome! If you didn't catch the game, it's worth seeing the replay even if it's just to check out Lote's facial 'do'. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a weird moustache or what.... :)

Matt Giteau was named 'man of the match' in the Brumbies 34-29 win over the Cats in Capetown. Giteau, back at flyhalf this round, scored a couple of tries, four conversions, and two penalties.

The Highlanders played very well indeed this week for a convincing 43-7 win over the Sharks in Durban. Ben Blair scored three tries for the Otago boys. Sharks' fans will be doing it tough with their team still winless after four rounds.

Six Nations - Wales toppled Ireland 32-20 to win the Six Nations event in a magnificent game of rugby at Cardiff. More than 74,500 people packed into the Millenium stadium to cheer on Wales to their first Six Nations title in 27 years. That's a loooooong time between drinks huh!! I like Ireland, but I like Wales as well - they sure did play a fine game and are deserved title holders.

I'm exhausted after all that rugby!! :)
