Well, round 2 of Super Rugby just got started but what a win by the Highlanders to remain unbeaten in Super Rugby, beating the Reds in a close encounter at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin but unfortunately to our beloved Hurricanes, they fell to the dominant Crusaders side (One of 2 New Zealand teams undefeated during the season but they unfortunately didn't get the bonus point) at AMI Stadium in Christchurch after beating the Waratahs away from home in round 1 then the Chiefs & Blues didn't get wins over the Brumbies & Sharks in Canberra & Durban respectively while other results include the Tahs, Stormers & Jaguares get their first victories of the season by beating the Sunwolves, Lions & the Bulls but in Six Nations news, Wales came out on top against England to remain unbeaten in the Six Nations at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, playing their best rugby in years (Although England's innovative defence were finally been broken by the Welsh) while France wallop Scotland at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis after back to back defeats in the 2019 Six Nations against both Wales & England then Ireland got the better of Italy at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
But this is my last blog my friends before the South Island trip where I will be going with Pops, Aunty Tania & Rejean from the 27th of February on a flight from Palmerston North to Queenstown until the 10th of March where Pops & I are heading back from Queenstown to Palmy on the way home.
So that is my 274th blog of the year 2019 (MMXIX) & my 14th of this year.
