Well, the Crusaders have won another game in round 4 of Super Rugby, continuing their dominance against the Highlanders in a great southern derby match at Orangetheory Stadium in Christchurch then the Chiefs (Who were without star winger Solomon Alaimalo, potential All Black Lachlan Boshier & mercurial halfback Brad Weber) hopes of remaining unbeaten in the competition have been dashed by a very good Brumbies side (Who bounced back after losing to the Highlanders in week 3) who beat them at FMG Stadium Waikato in Hamilton meaning that Warren Gatland's record as Chiefs coach has ended before an Otere Black (Who had returned from a rib problem) penalty have sealed the deal for the Blues to win in the Republic against the Bulls in Pretoria (Well there were 4 yellow cards have handed out during the match such as Bulls player Andries Ferreira for repeated infringements then Bulls skipper Burger Odendaal for a shoulder to the head on Blues winger Emoni Narawa (It would have been a red card if Narawa didn't duck) before Blues player Jonathan Ruru for cynically killing the ball in a ruck 5 metres out from his line then it was Hoskins Sotutu who got sin binned for an apparent high tackle).
And here are the other results from the 4th round of Super Rugby:
Rebels 24 - 36 Sharks
Reds 64 - 5 Sunwolves
& Stormers 17 - 7 Jaguares
And in Six Nations news such as Scotland have taken victory against Italy by 17 points & managed to keep the Italians scoreless at the end then France for the 1st time in 10 years, have beaten the defending Six Nations champions Wales at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff before England have managed to beat Ireland at Twickenham in London to defend the Millennium Trophy crown.
So that is my 344th blog of the year 2020 (MMXX) & my 4th of this year.
P.S. And I went to Carole's to Pops to have a big brunch or lunch there on Sunday then a day later me & Pops went to Red Eye Cafe for lunch & yesterday went to Columbus coffee at Mitre 10 & saw Carole there where I had a CAB salad there.
And there is something important that I gotta tell you (1st we had the Christchurch mass mosque massacre in March last year along with the the protests in Hong Kong, China & the mass shootings in both Dayton, Ohio & El Paso, Texas which claimed many lives before we had the White Island volcanoes here in New Zealand in December last year then they had the bushfires in Australia (Many koalas are in danger of getting extinct but many people saved them but most of them are donating to the bushfire appeal fund), that there's coronavirus everywhere coming in over in Wuhan in China that there's so many confirmed cases all over the place (And many people have been dead with that disease) especially all over the world (Especially in Japan on a cruise ship (Many Americans & Canadians have been affected with that disease), Iran & in Italy (Both Chinese people have been tested positive for coronavirus meaning that the Ireland Vs Italy Six Nations rugby match have been postponed) but there are certain travel restrictions in place but the Chinese Formula 1 Grand Prix in Shanghai has been postponed as well as the Tokyo summer Olympics could be called off due to coronavirus) but this is like a throwback to the SARS disease that they had in 2002/03 & the H1N1 swine flu in Mexico in 2009.
