Thuds Rugby Stuff

Thinking out loud about rugby union, exploring some (possible) insights and information about the game, professional, club and international rugby and possible trends. 

I'm all about club rugby, including Champions Cup (Heineken Cup), Super Rugby Pacific, URC, Top 14, Gallagher Premiership, the National Provincial Championship and the Currie Cup, and of course Six Nations, the Rugby Championship. 

Really love delving in to statistics and the the interesting aspects of rugby they reveal, but also the intricacies which the numbers don't show. 
And I enjoy thinking about the game conceptually, and thinking out of the box. Great coaching innovations, and players who change the game.
