Collective quality lacking in international rugby

Collective quality lacking in international rugby

While Argentina and Australia have been torrid, New Zealand hold a 50% win record for the first time in years, England are treating controversially beating a French C team as a World Cup final and the general state of northern-hemisphere rugby appears dire at best. Some perspective on the state of world rugby please, asks JAMES DALTON.

Improved Stormers need to adapt

There are positives to be taken from the Stormers’ six-try victory over Griquas but there are areas of their game that need improvement, especially an ability to adapt to the other side’s style of play, writes JAMES DALTON.

Stormers need to dictate pace against Sharks

The Sharks passed their proverbial acid test in hammering the Jaguares in Durban, and they will now host South Africa’s other top side, the Stormers, in what will be a defining match for the two sides, writes former Bok hooker JAMES DALTON.

Sharks pack set for Jaguares test

The Sharks’ match against the Jaguares will act as an acid test of their capabilities against premier sides in the tournament such as the Crusaders, Chiefs and even Brumbies, writes former Springbok JAMES DALTON.

I’ve never been a Sharks supporter, but they’re the one side this Vodacom Super Rugby season that I’m really starting to like, writes former Springbok hooker JAMES DALTON.
