RUGBYHEADS - Passionately one-eyed and proud of it!
Welcome to Rugbyheads! The website for the discerning Rugby fan who has had enough of the "sit-on-the-fence" attitude of the main stream rugby press and is hanging out for someone to tell it like it is!

Rain or shine, these Crusaders showed tonight that they can grind out a win, whatever the conditions. And a tough win it was too, only sealed by Sheriff Crockett's late try, which gave them an 18-10 win over the nasty Sharks.
Bring on the Reds and Highlanders, and go the Chiefs and Canes! (We want another shot at those Mooloo Boys this season!)

Ah, regular service is resumed after last weeks hiccup which I won't discuss any furthur (because like the RWC, it's in the past... grrrrr).
The Crusaders held on to take it 26-22 over the Blues in a classic matchup between the big boys on NZ rugby, full of fast frantic rugby. Not exactly error free from either side but fortunately for the Crusaders the key errors were made by the Blues, and Nick Evans in particular.
With DC out of action it would appear that the next best first five in the country plays for the Chiefs, with both Evans and Brett putting in patchy performances, again. Come back quick Dan!
