The Dropkicks - 2007 - Episode 03

Dom flies solo this week. Or does he?

We review our (dreadful) first round picks, make our calls on the second round match-ups, a quick postmortem on the tri-series cricket, and retell one of the best wacky stories you'll ever hear (courtesy of Blind Hamish).

Virtual Super 14 - Week 1

So, here we are, the standings of the Dropkicks Mates table after one week of the Super 14. Preferring individual brilliance over solid teamwork, the individual Dropkicks seem to be saving their best picks for themselves, with Noizy out in front of the pack (with over double the points of the Dropkicks score), the Mallet not fair behind in 3rd, and Mouth of the South tied for fourth (along with Blind Hamish, supplier of our brilliant wacky story of the week for Episode 3).

Feel free to join The Dropkicks to your own mates list. And sign up to the game here, if you haven't already.

The Dropkicks - 2007 - Episode 02

Here it is, virtually (and in fact, actually) un-edited due to time constraints on the currently over-worked Dropkicks editor, episode 2 of the 2007 Dropkicks season, featuring the build-up to the first round of the Super 14, Six Nations, Tri-Series Cricket, mountain-biking (Vanessa Quinn), Dicks of the Week (Turkey Shooters), Athlete of the Week (Jacob Oram) and Roger Federer still being awesome.
