Eddie Jones says that Fourie du Preez is playing some of the best rugby of his career and would add terrific value to Heyneke Meyer's Springbok team. The Boks' World Cup failure marked a gutting end for retirees such as Victor Matfield, while Danie Rossouw, Bakkies Botha and Du Preez departed New Zealand with the knowledge that their Test playing days were almost certainly done. Du Preez may have signed with Suntory Sungoliath prior to the 2011 Super Rugby season, but his underwhelming performance at the World Cup may have convinced many, perhaps even the player himself, that he could no ...

Alan Solomons says the Southern Kings have the necessary plans in place that will make them competitive in Super Rugby next year. There have been mixed reactions following the confirmation of the Kings' admission to Super Rugby for 2013. The Eastern Cape franchise has been given a free ride into the tournament, despite Saru not being sure of how they will be accommodated along with the country's five other teams: the Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. While Saru's proposal of entering six franchises next year will be formally discussed with Sanzar in the near future (despite CEO Greg ... Read ArticleAuckland 8:35am - 10:00am (SAST)

The EP Kings have taken former Griquas flyhalf Earl Rose on a month-long trial. The 28-year-old was released by Griquas at the end of the 2011 Currie Cup campaign after only spending one season with the Kimberley union. Rose will now hope to impress First Division losing finalists the EP Kings over the next four weeks to earn a contract. 'Earl is with us on a trial agreement,' EP Kings head coach Alan Solomons told keo.co.za. 'He will be on trial until 17 February.' Rose has suffered a series of disappointments over the last couple years. Prior to his exit at Griquas, he spent five years ... Read Article8 Nov 2011
The Springboks will play Argentina in their first game of next year's Rugby Championship, the four-team southern-hemisphere tournament replacing the existing Tri-Nations. An agreement confirming Argentina’s participation was signed in Auckland recently by the Sanzar Joint Venture partners after several months of negotiations with the Unión Argentina de Rugby (UAR) and the International Rugby Board (IRB). The new-look tournament has been given a new name and a new fixture line-up with two Tests on each match day. Each participant plays home and away matches against each of the other three ...

Stuart Lancaster has named an unchanged match 22 for England's next Six Nations Test against Italy. England beat Scotland 13-6 last week without producing a particularly convincing performance. Nevertheless, Lancaster has decided to keep a winning team intact. 'We have decided to leave the starting team the same to allow them more time to gel together and we are expecting our bench to come on and make an impact as they did last week,' said Lancaster. 'Italy will be a very difficult challenge with nearly 700 caps in their starting line-up and it promises to be an outstanding occasion at ... Read ArticleRome 6:00pm - 8:00pm (SAST)

Former Wales wing Shane Williams will retire from all rugby at the end of the European season. The 34-year-old ended his Test career against the Wallabies in Cardiff last December. He then signed a contract extension with his club Ospreys until the end of the 2013 season, but both parties have agreed to release the veteran from the deal a year early. Ospreys have announced that Williams will then take up an ambassadorial role at the club, where he 'will promote rugby in and around the region whilst also working in conjunction with the Ospreys' existing and future commercial partners'.

Shimlas thrashed defending champions UCT 38-10 while Maties, Pukke and Tuks won their matches in the opening round of the Varsity Cup. At the Green Mile in Cape Town, Shimlas hooker PW van Vuuren, No 8 Fanie van der Walt and scrumhalves Kevin Luiters and Pieter Rademan secured the students from Free State a bonus-point win. Wing Nico Scheepers also added four conversions and three penalties. UCT could only add two tries through fullback Dillyn Leyds and skipper Ntsolo Setlaba as they lost their first opening game since 2009. Three-time champions Stellenbosch University recorded a 52-2 ... Read ArticleJohannesburg 5:00pm - 7:00pm (SAST)

Springbok Sevens coach Paul Treu has replaced the injured Paul Delport with Renfred Dazel for the Las Vegas tournament. Delport has returned to South Africa after picking up a cheekbone injury at the Wellington Sevens, where the Blitzboks won the Plate title (5th place). This sees 30-year-old Dazel, who has featured at 35 tournaments, as the only change to the team that featured in New Zealand. The Blitzboks won the Cup title in Las Vegas last season, and will defend their title this weekend. Meanwhile, Treu lamented the team's defensive showing at the Wellington Sevens, especially in the ... Read Article11 Jan 2012
The International Rugby Board are considering hosting some of Wales' World Cup matches in 2015 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. England won the right to host the event and organisers are expected to make use of some of the country's numerous world-class football stadia. The venues will be confirmed once the tournament dates are finalised with the pool draw to follow in November. However, IRB chief executive Mike Miller said travel logistics could make the 75 000-seater Millennium an option. 'Yes there is an issue of Wales playing at "home", but for people in the west of England, ... Read Article24 Jul 2010
