Western Province without Grant score four tries.
I haven't seen the match, but doubt this is a coincidence.

Not just Carter's out - All Blacks like Ben Franks, Thorn, Sam Whitelock and Ellis are also missing. They've still got a strong squad but I didn't want to go against the flow and back the Crusaders given they're without a few of those important players, they're away from home against a side with just one loss so far, and the way they let the Force back into the match last weekend, particularly with their high penalty count.My whole logic is that Carter isn't playing and the Stormers are at home. But I could easily see the Crusaders winning and I am surprised more people havn't backed them.
RedsStormers are just a well drilled unit and I'd back them against anyone at home.
RedsBlues on a 6 game winning streak, the Canes are missing Nonu, Jane, Smith and So'oialo and the Blues have already put 40 past the Canes this season. Looks like an absolute banker but then I just read that the Blues squad is currently down to 18 and Toeava, McAlister, Woodcock and Boric will all be missing this one.
