Bulls win back to back Super 14 Titles
The Bulls have won their third Super 14 Title, defeating the Stormers 25 - 17 in front of a packed Orlando Stadium in Soweto.

And then there were two – Bulls vs Stormers
As per my tip last week, this Sunday morning's Super 14 final will be an all South African affair, with the Bulls playing host to the Stormers, at Orlando Stadium in Soweto.

Huxley looks forward to Melbourne
They say strength comes from adversity. We often hear stories of people overcoming personal challenges. They don't only succeed, they shine. Essendon Football Club's Adam Ramanauskas is one example. He overcame fibromatosis, a low grade cancer to return to senior ranks. His story captured the football public. Melbourne though, as a new hero in Julian Huxley.
Time for the business end of the season
After 14 rounds, only 4 teams remain at the top of the table. The Bulls are looking to go back to back, while the Crusaders are looking for a record 8th title.
