The first weekend of the inaugural European Rugby Champions Cup didn’t fail to impress as the continental elite united once again but from here on under a new banner. The competition’s name might have changed but the quality of the collisions at hand has remained, and it only seems right that Toulon’s Mathieu Bastareaud features in our first-ever ERCC highlight reel.

Ben Tameifuna took little time in making his presence felt upon returning to the ITM Cup stage this weekend, showing Bay of Plenty exactly what Waikato have been missing during his absence from the line-up.

Poland will play host to Germany on Saturday in the latest leg of their bid to qualify for Euro 2016, a fixture that promises to pull apart two sides currently on level pegging. Both teams won their first qualifiers and currently sit level on three points apiece, Poland top of the pile by virtue of goal difference, having thrashed pool minnows Gibraltar in their last outing. Joachim Low’s reigning...

The Republic of Ireland will seek to replicate the success of Group D leaders Poland on Saturday when they welcome Gibraltar to Dublin with Euro 2016 qualification in view. The Poles put seven goals past European football’s newest outfit as they cruised to an unanswered victory, and Martin O’Neill will hope his men can be just as menacing in all areas. The boys in green won’t be taking...

Another successful Rugby Championship title defence and the faces of the New Zealand squad still shared a look of disappointment upon their 27-25 loss at Ellis Park last Saturday, such is the winning desire of an All Black. Steve Hansen’s side nonetheless come out of the tournament with a long list of positives, however, and we analyse several key members of their competition and how their reputations...

The Rugby Championship rounded to its close this weekend, with New Zealand reigning as champions once again despite South Africa’s victory, but the biggest hits reside elsewhere among the global rugby masses. In Europe, the Pro12 endured a difficult weekend of off-the-ball collisions that gave referees a few tough decisions to make. Liam Williams of Scarlets and Dan Biggar of Ospreys were among...

Bet365 and Sky Sports F1 confirmed the finish: A bright performance...
