Good to see my low scoring team topping the South African Conference. Oh, good win by Province over the Blue Bulls and congrats to the Pumas.

Lions better do us a favour this week so we can get a home semi

They would do themselves a favour as well by winning and thereby giving them a chance of making the playoffs. That would also mean winning the Stormers at Newlands. Stormers have to go to the Shark Tank in their last game. The Brumbies also have tough games ahead (Bulls, Force and Crusaders) so 6th is also up for grabs.

Finding the Highlanders/Chiefs game the hardest to call this week. Could shape up to be a glorious matchup. Was one of the best (if not the best) game last year.

Had some incredible passages.

Cheetahs have signed Fred Zeilinga from the Sharks.

Will join them immediately.

Joe Petersen looks like he will be joining the Sharks for Currie Cup.

He will suit the Sharks nicely, we need another versatile back in the team

I'm not counting on a Crusaders win. They're playing badly this year, and don't have Sam Whitelock, Kieran Read, Colin Slade, Ryan Crotty, Israel Dagg, Joe Moody or Wyatt Crockett for this game... Against the top team this year? Nah, don't think so.

For the first time ever, I changed a pick from Crusaders to Hurricanes. I really, really wish I hadn't done that because now I want to change it back, but that would make it even worse if the Canes take it :crying:

Wow. Barbarians actually won. Sounds like it was a nice game.

And then this try by Krusty. Not bad, not bad at all.

Love the commentators comment where they said that they haven't seen enough of that type of atepping from him for his club. .
Pretty good try though.

Was a pretty enjoyable game. Can't believe it's the 3rd time the Barbarians have beaten Ireland by 1 point.
