Questions from Round 13 of Super Rugby

It's the Heineken Cup final this evening, as the biggest game in European rugby takes place in Cardiff. And I'm in Edinburgh. But this is life, things don't always go according to plan, as you'll see in the short video below.
A return to Edinburgh was long overdue, having lived here over ten years ago. It's a beautiful city and while rugby seems to struggle for popularity up here, it's been good to see the marketing efforts of those pushing the Edinburgh Sevens, which takes place next weekend.
If you're in the area, make sure you get along as it's sure to be a good fun, and a could be an excellent introduction to the game for those who aren't usually rugby fans, so drag them along. The same can be said for the London Sevens, which is taking place at the moment down south.
As for the rugby fifteens calendar, the Heineken Cup final kicks off in a few hours time, but then there's also been some fantastic Super Rugby going on, with much more to come later today.
While there's a few critics of the tournament due to it's open, attack-minded style of play, you can also be sure that there's always something entertaining happening. That's the beauty of rugby, as often the small incidents make great viewing. With that in mind, here's a few questions for you from last weekend, as asked by Reunion in New Zealand.

Still a pretty lame try, but at the end of the day, the Rebels lost by a mile, so in the long run, it didn't much matter.

So lame. Trying to copy Play of the Week.
Lame comment. They're doing something similar, so what!? I still enjoyed it and saw stuff I haven't seen elsewhere. That's what I come to RD for.

It was a classic game either way, stunning comeback in a pressure enviroment, can't beat cup competitions.

Yes, that's the solution. I'll buy a tv, and still not get any rugby coverage; some of us live in countries where rugby is sparsely shown on television without a hefty subscription fee.
Sorry if I was disappointed that some couch potato got so excited watching the match, he thought, "geez, I better get on rugbydump.com and comment on whatever post is on the front page, regardless of its relevancy!"
Why not just hold on until the clips for the match get posted? Is that asking a lot?
Vagrant May 22, 2011 8:45 am

The UK has higher TV subscription fees than all of Europe (and all of the southern hemisphere) and you can still view the HEC for ONLY 1 a day, less than most people spend on coffee.
It's more retarded to view a rugby site and HOPE that nobody mentions a result than to actually watch a match and view a rugby site to see what other people are saying.

It's stupid to argue with you about this, but my point was this this post (regarding Round 13 of Super Rugby) has nothing to do with the Heineken Cup final.
Perhaps I came on the site to see something regarding Super Rugby before I get the chance to watch the HC, and clicked on comments for this video to discuss...this video.
Why does someone feel the need to emote over the results in this particular thread? That's what was annoying.
It's not a big deal. I just think the people who brought it up were dicks. The end.

and YES: the invisible man is a better defender than the incredible (but only in attack;) ) man Cooper !
