Bulls Rebels Canes Tahs Brumbies (if Toomua plays) Highlanders I don't feel comfortable with any of these picks so will change them.
SBW and James Lowe out for the match - massive advantage for the Canes!!! Good thing I got in on good odds before that.
Yeah well done U2. I am pissed that the Bulls lost. They played the better rugby. Just poor exit routines from their own 22 following each Blues kick off cost them the match. Also a lack of penetration from pick n goes by the tight 5. The backs were the only ones making metres all night (exempting the rolling maul). I knew I had been too conservative with my picks this week. Your picks have to have an edge to them or you will lose. Hope now the Brumbies can pull one off against the Lions or I am in strife.

In the first few rounds I was making my tips right away. These days I am really bewildered who to tip. take that reds sharks game for instance, goodness knows if Reds will show up. i am tempted to go sharks as the Reds stink. The force vs highlanders game really tears at me. I can see the force winning but will the landers actually play badly at this time of the year. In the nhl all the best teams turn it up a notch down the stretch.
