up to 45th in GAGR now! Still haven't used the wildcard yet, I think that might be getting played this weekend though.

Mate, I would be quite worried about you if you didn't back your team! I think that the Highlanders are still mathematically still able to make the finals, but they would have to rely on a hell of a lot of results going their way. IIRC, the Clan were in the same position last year as well. They...

There is a distinct possibility that the Crusaders could miss the finals if they lose to the Chiefs. For that to happen though, the Reds would need to win both of their remaining matches, and the Hurricanes would have to dust the Chiefs in the final round. You are right there Paarl. It is...

Well, I'm sitting on 481 points for this round. Thank heavens for Moore, Zac Holmes and Hougaard! I'm a bit annoyed at my props though. I when I saw that Nel was benched this weekend, I decided to bench him and draft Crockett into the side. Big mistake.

Bang on Scotty. Our attack was layered, but really simple at the same time. To me, that is (was) the calling card of Australian rugby. Clever, thought-out back play that would cut a defence to ribbons. All facilitated by efficient forward play. It also speaks volumes of the game plan. I see...

That's a big call.

Spot on Cat. The University is really anal about the condition of the fields (and surrounding areas for that matter). I am not surprised they wouldn't let the club play on the fields.

Yeah, I believe he played ice hockey and raced in nascar, or something similar. If I am not mistaken, he had a massive crash a few years ago.

From memory, Quade didn't pop up at fullback too much last night. He seemed to occupy to 10 channel in defence a lot more than he has in the past. His biggest problem when defending at 10 is that he attacks the ball, rather than focusing on getting the man down. Invariably, this will lead to the...

Yeah, I wouldn't have kicked Kelly out either. Maybe I should have put up Dylan, he was way tougher than Brandon. Except that Dylan had a poor taste in women, and kept boning Brandons sister, Brenda. Probably shows how much of a pussy Brandon was there RT, just rolling over and letting his mate...

I think that JOC (James O'Connor) has been watching too much Beverly Hills 90210 during the break. Maybe he would prefer to be called Brandon over Beiber.

Both! They will both be player/coaches too, as the Rebels are not likely to have anyone left after all their players move on at the end of the season. ;)

Looks like Carter, Read, Dagg, Jane and Vito won't be fronting up for the Crusaders/Hurricanes clash this week: http://www.superxv.com/news/super15_rugby_news.asp?id=35659 Cruden could be out for the Chiefs as well, considering he suffered an injury on the weekend. Doubt over Beale too...
