Kieran Read not being there evens things out - imo. Previously tipped Saders their form and home advantage. Taufua should be ahead of Luke Whitelock.

Should be a great game if both play to their potential. Conrad is pumped.

The rain will hurt the Canes just as much if not more than the Tahs.

No it wasn't. They knocked the ball on with the try line close several times. They dominated the Reds, but just couldn't finish the bazliion chances they got. However, they did finish enough of them to still win. I think they are doing better, and this will not be easy for the Tahs, but I...

Braid is probably out for the Blues. His back up isn't much chop. The Blues still look very disjointed. That said, I think Eden Park plus their good backs will get them home against a very average Reds outfit.

Logged on this morning intending to apologize for my provoking (I'd had a few yesterday), but when I read my post, aside from the Japan remark, I stand by it. Canes should have won by 20+ but for some poor handling(pushed passes) and Barrett's missed kicks. There is no way the Reds will be in...

Total bullshit. The Reds were dominated.

When the Canes were in possession, it was like the All Blacks vs Japan. The Reds are shit. Cooper showing all the frailties of yesteryear and Genia was average. Canes should have won by 20+.

Good try Reds - right back in

Reds ahead (somehow) at half time.

Canes 12 getting over advantage line at will.

As an AB fan Will Skelton worries me - serious go-forward.

Upset of the tournament. Or was it? Sharks still to travel. Brumbies and Saders are my picks at this stage.

If the Canes continue their recent form, I think they will comfortably beat the Reds in Wellington. Home advantage counts for a lot. However, they are so hot and cold, that they could also easily lose it.

The Blues are very good at Eden Park and their season is on the line. I think this will be very close. Simon Hickey was very good until the Brumbies game. I don't think he should have been benched against the Canes last week.

The Saders are definitely back.

I think Retallick is the best lock in the world.

Brutal game. War of attrition at the moment.

I think the Chiefs scored the points when they wanted but lacked urgency and was also tired from the SA trip. There is a greater gap between these two teams than the scoreline suggests. Saying that the Chiefs don't look like 2 times champions at the moment.

Tana wants more experience before becoming a Super coach. He has been very good for Counties. I expect this was timed so people wouldn't bug him about it.
