Super Rugby round 11 wrap

Well, the Crusaders have won the 2018 Super Rugby final rematch by toppling the Lions 36 - 10 (Both Crusaders wingers George Bridge & Sevu Reece have both got doubles) at Christchurch Stadium in Christchurch (Which is New Zealand's most protected city in wake of the Christchurch terror attacks (Although it's worse than Aramoana in 1990 but it's reminiscent to the mass shootings in Port Arthur, Tasmania, Australia in 1996 & in Oslo & the island of Utoya in Norway in 2009) last month because there's armed police everywhere in the city especially at mosques (Not just New Zealand but around the world that there's heightened, beefed up security measures at mosques in response to the mosque shootings in Christchurch (Well, we followed the footsteps of both Australia & Norway by banning carbine rifles in our country as a result) while the Highlanders completely thrash the Sunwolves (Who are out of the competition after next year with Super Rugby reducing the number of teams to 14 from 2021) 52 - 0 at Chichibunomiya Stadium in Tokyo while the Hurricanes humiliate the Chiefs (Who are missing both Damian McKenzie (Gone for the season as well as the Rugby World Cup) & captain Brodie Retallick) with a Jordie Barrett double (Well, he may have sent a message to the All Blacks selectors of making the squad for the 2019 Rugby World Cup) at Westpac Stadium in Wellington.

So that is my 282nd blog of the year 2019 (MMXIX) & my 22nd of this year.

P.S. And it was on Sunday morning that me & Mum watched Star Wars & I literally enjoy that movie so much but I've got The Empire Strikes Back on record on Saturday (It'll be shown on Three after Newshub) so me & Mum can watch it on Sunday morning because we've got a rugby game to watch on both Friday (Crusaders Vs Sharks) & Saturday (Which is Hurricanes Vs Rebels & Highlanders Vs Chiefs (Same day as I record another Star Wars movie).

And finally I still miss Pops because I miss him already but Carole has sent me an email about a picture I saw of Pops, Carole, Martin (Who had his 60th birthday on June 26th), Leyla, Marat, Andy & Kelsey on that boat trip in Hawaii but I gave Dad a phone call last night to tell him that I had no problems whatsoever (And he had been back to school working but he has been watching Dancing With The Stars New Zealand but his favourite dancing contestants were legends of both rugby league & union such as Manu Vatuvei & Whanganui police constable Glen Osborne).
