Barely more than one year ago, NTU Rugby created history in the Singapore rugby community by becoming the first ever team to have their very own publications - www.nturugbynews.blogspot.com

The blog took the community by storm . Fans started visiting the site by the hundreds every day, messages started to flood the tag board and the counter never stopped increasing. The blog has reached out and touched the hearts of many ever since then. Some fans even took blog surfing to the limit by making this site their homepage.




When interviewed, NTU rugby news BIGGEST FAN aka "Confused (on the tag board)" said "I set it as my homepage so that whenever I surf the net, this will be the first site to check out"

However, after a glorious year of providing great reviews, news and insights to NTU rugby, we had to say goodbye to 3 of our pioneer editors, leaving 1 pioneer to hold the fort of this site.

Seeking this vulnerability as an opportunity to strike, SMU Rugby has recently announced their intention to enter the market of blog publicity. With their rich sponsors' blank cheque signed and all ready to invade the market, the captain of the team is keeping the faith and very confident that SMU rugby's blog will take over NTU Rugby News as the most visited rugby blog in Singapore.







In his speech during the press conference, SMU star center/winger Amos Siow said "We dont see ourselves as the next big thing. We ARE THE THING!" Strong words from the self proclaimed "the Real Refresher of NTU Rugby News" himself.

First to react to the comment were 2 of our pioneers. Stormy Normy called in from his office saying "@#%&*! We see what they write lor, I'm pretty sure that their articles will somewhat look familiar to ours!" Indeed having not let go of the incident which happened in Oct 2006, Stormy condemned their blog even before it started. For a full understanding, please refer to http://nturugbynews.blogspot.com/2006/10/varsity-plagiarism.html

Potato Thiam showed a more positive response by offering them his service - "how about we write for you guys, $50 per article?"

Whatever it may be, to maintain the harmonious relationship between SMU and NTU, NTU rugby news shall put on a friendly front and welcome any competition.



Our surviving editor - "We welcome any challenges. If they want to challenge our blog, so be it. With SMU entering the market, im sure it will not only benefit the fans but also NTU rugby news as we will continue to provide the latest news and rumours for our fans"
