Southern Hemisphere Rugby
The Super 14 Rugby tournament is a competition between the top provincial teams in the Southern Hemisphere. This tournament is arguably the best in the world and has 5 South African teams, 5 teams from New Zealand and 4 from Australia. Most of the players of the national teams of these countries play in one of the teams of the Super 14. So that definitely adds to the excitement and level of the games played. The Stormers are the team for Western Province, and play their games in the capital of this province: Cape Town (what a nice coincidence). They have been performing
average in the past years, but this year was their best year ever. For the first time they made it to the finals, but were beaten by the Blue Bulls.
Of course, the fact that it was an all South African final was a huge achievement in itself that was proudly emphasized by commentators here.
