For their top five this week, the lads at Fox Sports Down Under put together the top five moments of the Super Rugby season, which includes some great tries, some big hits and the most Australian sentence of all time.

Normally we have a tiny little gripe about the lack of a northern hemisphere or even an Irish reference from Sean Maloney and the Fox Sports crew but that’s not an issue this week as it is based entirely around the most memorable incidents in the Super Rugby competition this season.

The Chiefs winning the final against the Brumbies is obviously a huge highlight, as is the Brumbies’ epic semi-final win over the Bulls, while there is also a massive hit on Israel Dagg squeezed in there too.

Our favourite moment, however, is undoubtedly the post-match interview conducted by a couple of Western Force players following their victory over the Crusaders which included the lines ‘We come out as mad as a treeful of galahs there’, ‘They can be as tough as woodpecker lips mate’ and the fairly dodgy ‘Sweating like a gypsy with a mortgage’. Can you get more Australian than that?

At the end of the clip, Sean also mentioned that he will be running in the City2Surf event in Sydney this weekend and if anyone reading this Down Under wants to make a donation for Sean’s chosen charity, the MND and Me Foundation, they can do so here.
