Chasing the sun on DSTv
I am visiting my parents in South Africa from overseas and have not used DSTV in years. Am I able to cue the docco on demand or is it not that simple?

Very interesting interview with Rene Naylor. Some great insights into the team culture and Springbok rugby in general, and her journey.

Champions cup
Another disappointing weekend for the SA teams, when if ever will we see our teams reach the level of professionalism that the Irish, French and as much as it pains me to say the English teams have?

SA teams still using twitter
Given the toxic cesspool that has become twitter it’s really disappointing to me that so many SA teams including SA Rugby continue to use the platform. It’s especially disappointing given SA’s history and current problems with hate, misogyny and racism.

Finally got a RWC 2023 Jersey but not sure if real or fake
Hi,
After over a year of searching for a Spingbox jersey for the RWC23, I finally got my hand on one. But I am unsure if it is a real or fake one.
The SKU seems legit (FQ1695-330) but the stitching on the RWC 2023 logo is a bit weird with some dots in the letters.
Does that jersey looks legit to you? There are so many fakes online and I really want a real one.
(And congrats on the back to back WC!)

What did everyone think of the first round of the Champions Cup?
Generally, the quality of rugby was good (especially the French giants of Toulouse and Bordeaux) apart from all the ill-discipline (there were a lot of justified cards over the weekend). However, I got the feeling that the organisation and marketing was slapdash and last-minute. There were some tech difficulties with some of the matches and many sides did not have special champs cup jerseys made. You could see the logos were just pasted on the players' sleeves, and some were peeling off to reveal the URC logos underneath, for example. Not all the matches appeared to be screened on SuperSport, either. If this is supposed to be the pinnacle of club rugby, it seemed below par to me. We whinge more about it below, but keen to hear opinions, regardless.
