Global Results - 14 February
There was drama in the second round of the Six Nations with that miraculous burst of scoring at Millennium Stadium that gave Wales 17 points in the last four minutes, a great performance by France and a sterling performance by Italy.
Then the Super 14 started and it was bright and cheerful from the first match to the second last. The last was as dismal as the weather with a tropical storm in Durban.
In the European Nations Cup it looks as if Georgia and, for the first time, Russia are heading for the World Cup.
And in Las Vegas Samoa hit the jackpot.
