Super 14 2010 Predictions

[#1 Tah]

You wouldn't have to do a correlation. Just a total of place differences. Like the points differential total each week in Superbru.

But we shouldn't do that until after the final.

yeah.. maybe we should wait until the wallabies season has finished.... maybe next year....

This year will be different in a big way to the previous 3 years. Important factor is back to the old rules, no short arms to try and quicken the game, so expecting teams with strong lineouts, big boot 10s and good defense to end at the top side of the log.

1. Crusaders
2 Bulls
3 Stormers
4 Waratahs
5 Hurricanes
6 Brumbies
7 Sharks
8 Blues
9 Cheetahs
10 Chiefs
11 Highlanders
12 Lions
13 Force
14 Reds

Underestimate Reddy's Reds but not to bad from your wise Boer from Paarl. Now waiting for my G and G TShirts. :fishing

How'd the Cheetahs finish in 10th? I mean they were hopeless most of the year and have still never won outside RSA

Various reasons. Myself never doubt their young talent and strong structure. This was their second year with the same sqouad mostly. They also played in the CC final last year but I thought Griquas has rise a lot since Dawie Theron took control. Griquas won the Vodacom Cup last year and ended 5th on the CC log after having a very strong start , being top of the CC log past halfway. They sarted strong in the S14 , beating the Sharks at home but then they lost their talisman Brussouw and Juan for a fair bit. Also thought Naka havent used his Griqua part of players that very well and players like Pretorius, Viljoen, Raubenheimer and Basson had to fight for a Tin Ear jersey. Now at the end they were the shiners in that Tin Ear team. If they can hold on their top players, the Tin Ear thread to the other teams will get bigger and bigger as the likes of Waltie Vermeulen (lock), the Ebersohn Twins, Wilmore and others start making their mark on top level.

You hear it here first.
