I've only seen the highlights. That Coenie Ossthuizen is a great ball runner. If his lineout throwing, scrummaging and workrate are good, he must be in Springbok reckoning.

Hurricanes win away with Conrad Smith. A very unexpected result. Lam gets absolutely done in the first minute. Brutal. Poor attendance. I think the Cheetahs likely underestimated the Canes.Highlights here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHsEI6fvexM

Though the Chiefs' defence will likely leak a lot more tries than the Reds' - if the Force can score some.

Though the Chiefs' defence will likely leak a lot more tries than the Reds' - if the Force can score some.

Aaron Cruden and Tim Nanai-Williams are both in doubt. This is a real boost to the Force's chances if they don't play - especially Cruden. (Anscombe is a relatively poor back-up at first-five, much better at FB) Although Ben Afeaki and Kerr-Barlow will be considered for selection this week. I...

The ref missed a lot of things for both sides.George Smith was living offside for much of the game. The Brumbies defence seemed to pushing the offside laws continually. As you said, a lot of frustrated fans, and I'll add on both sides. The Brumbies were totally outclassed. Any attempt to...

Shamelessly ripped from the Fern...(credit to Crucial) Had a quick play a round on a spreadsheet where I took the current points, added any 'free' points from upcoming byes to give an effective total. Then took 60 as a possible cutoff for the top 6 (although I suspect it may be slightly lower...

Rassie, you are making no sense. I am sure there is a point in there somewhere. What is it?

The TMO has to be accountable for bad decisions.

Rennie has laid an official complaint about the TMO That 3rd ruling, ruling a knock on when no one even had sight of the ball from any camera angle, is the most ridiculous I have ever seen. - especially in the context of the previous two decisions where the benefit of the doubt was given...

Is Robbie in two minds as to who to support?

Crusaders too good. Forward pack too powerful. Out-Brumbying the Brumbies.

Two lineouts lost by Cru, blame Corey Flynn's shit throwing.

Thank you very much Force!

Blue, I think Meyer's attachment to the Bulls' rugby philosophy is holding the Boks back. Long may it continue!:)

Actually DeVillers has been a disappointment in attack for the Boks for a few years. He is a "solid" option with good game awareness. I have always felt the Bok backline would be better with someone more dynamic. Perhaps this year Serfontein will replace him?? No, probably not.

Chiefs deserved the win with possibly 3 dodgy TMO calls. Nonetheless, their D is too weak to win the title I think.

One question, how did the TMO rule that was a knock on by the Chiefs to disallow the Anscombe when neither of the TV angles give any view of the incident whatsoever ?

Great try Beale. Game on.
