Thanks mate. Seems as though the selections are fairly similar this week, except for the Cats v Highlanders game - that could extend my lead even further or bring things right back to close the gap.

^ Im tipping the highlanders this week.. i feel with their capability they should be able to win against the cats.. it could be a small score or even a narrow margin though..

Why are the Cats so highly regarded by people, sure they won their opening game and came close against a Brumbies side that seems to sneak home every single match... but I can't see many other reasons to select them.

I picked the cats over the brumbies last week and it almost paid off with the brumbies just winning. I thought the brumbies would struggle is africa and they did..but still got the win.

I think I will pick the cats again this week. Otago won't play as well as they did last week again all season

Highlanders
Hurricanes
Brumbies
Waratahs..

I have a feeling that the 2 new zealand games will be tight and even a turn around victory is on the cards imo..

I'm pretty certain it hasn't kicked off yet, so he's probably ok.

 

[lord_of_darkness]

yeh the game hasnt kicked off btw "PREDICTIONS CLOSE BY Friday 7:00 NZST - 5:00 Melbourne Time, Predictions wont be taken after that"

But damn my revelation didnt pay off as the Highlanders Beat the Cats 16-12 !!!!!!!

 

[JASON]

Damn, My favourite Brumbies lost to the Sharks. two Flukish tries from intercept passes helped the Bloody Sharks.

There will be 2 brilliant games next week. Blues host Brumbies and Waratahs host Crusaders IIRC.

Well what did I say, can't believe you changed at the last minute Lord. I didn't actually see the match but it sounds as though the Highlanders played a tough but effective game, nice to see them winning for a change.

The Brumbies haven't looked convincing this year, and a loss was just around the corner IMO. Incredible to think that the Sharks, who were winless leading into the match, and sacked their coach during the week, were still able to beat the defending champions though...but from a Kiwi perspective I'm certainly not complaining!

 

[lord_of_darkness]

cant believe the brumbies lost to the sharks.

btw som the cats put up a really big fight to the highlanders.. it looked very close right through..

Teams always lift the first week of new manageemnt, unless they greatly detest the new coach. Generally to impress the new coach. So I'm not at all surprised, and also considering the Brumbies have never won in Durban in the Super 12's I'm more surprised I didn't tip the Sharks TBH...
