2010 ABSA Currie Cup Fixtures
In less than four weeks, South Africa’s premier domestic rugby competition kicks off.
Favorites for 2010 must be the Blue Bulls and Western Province after their Super14 teams topped the Super14 table and also contested the final.
Both the FS Cheetahs and Sharks started winning in the second half of the Super14 and they will be looking to build on that momentum.
The Griquas will be out to prove that they were not a flash in the pan during 2009, where they dominated the first half of the competition and narrowly missed out on a semi-final spot.
And the Lions will look to get back to winning ways after a terrible Super14, where they failed to record a single win.
The Pumas and Leopards will be looking to cause some upsets.
