Super Rugby 2018

In genuine rugby terms, and wishing the best for our National team.... I really hope the lighty, from Province Willemse continues his rise to fame.... He had a great game today, bot attacking and defending... Really nice to see a SA pivot who can defend.... Imvho, should the natural progression continue, Willemse at 10, and Pollard at 12, will be lethal at international level.... And no one will get through them....

The formbook has been upside down last few weeks hopefully this weekend sanity will prevail
Bulls + 20.5 vs Crusaders - Crusaders have lost 2 on the bounce and will be looking to bounce back here but 21 points does seem a lot
Rebels -5.5 vs Sharks - Cant see Sharks even getting close in this game , Rebels look too strong for them :sick:
Sunwolves +23.5 vs Chiefs - Sunwolves have surprised last 2 weeks but the travelling should start taking its toll if Chiefs get on top expect a hiding
Hurricanes - 5.5 vs Highlanders - Match of the weekend , this will be high scoring and entertaining , cant wait :woohoo:
Reds + 12.5 vs Stormers - Stormers where impressive last week but seem a bit in and out , Reds on handicap looks the way to go
Lions - 8.5 vs Jaguares - Lions are battling to dominant teams this season and dont see anything changing here , this could be a tight one

Stormers will win by the very very least 15 points

Sharks will make my weekend miserable as they will somehow find a way to beat the Rebels :whistle:

Cnc, I agree. The Sharks nearly always lose when you think they cant but win when they know the game is going to be hard. Go into some games in the wrong frame of mind

Early kick-0ff Easter Sunday Lions v Crusaders.

the handicaps for the weekend will once again be way out - last week the 2 matches with the biggest handicaps finished the closest on the scoreboard - Italy/Scotland and Lions/Sunwolves

Crusaders will have Crotty and Whitelock back and will also be licking their chops not to have NZ opposition for a change - rain is forecast and this will further help their dominant forwards -
Crusaders -25.5 at 2/1

Sharks keep on playing brainless rugby and appear to have no basic skills - Rebels -12.5 at 2/1 is the way to go

Entertaining start to the morning with the Chiefs heading towards 50 points against the Sunwolves :woohoo:

Two top teams playing in Wellington and the stadium is not even half full. Think that there is far too much rugby been played and in order to attract the fans back into the stadiums they should honestly reduce the number of matches and split the entire Super rugby structure into two sections.

From next season they should form a premier div and a 2nd div. They should take the top 7 sides and stick them in the prem div and the rest in the 2nd div. Play home and away, the team finishing bottom of the prem gets relegated and the top side in div 2 promoted. If they cant even fill half a stadium with the Canes v Highlanders what chance of getting even 5k for a Canes match against the likes of the Sunwolves?

I hope that i am back in time to watch the mighty Stormers as i have to go and fill in potholes

Mighty Stormers :lol: filling potholes ? Are u visiting Durban CNC :lol:

oh so its just as bad there as here, crazy you have to play dodge ball when you are driving and when it snows or the road has laying water you have no idea if you are going to hit one.

Reds should be down to 14 men tbh...

i am going to take a leaf out of your book and not complain, but yes how the ref missed that and then he said that the tmo said it was fine when questioned, then they show a replay and the ref says to late the game has restarted. Where do they find these refs? In Durban? :whistle:
