[QUOTE="SomeOke, post: 939220, member: 59145"] So Blues have their first win against Kiwi opposition since round 1 of 2016, one can't help but feel that there is a reshuffle happening in the NZ conference, Crusaders are steadfast as the best but positions 2-5 are up for grabs. [B]Hurricanes [/B]to beat the Stormers. [B]Crusaders [/B]to smash the Waratahs [B]Lions [/B]to put away the Sunwolves [B]Bulls [/B]to be too much for the Chiefs at altitude and at home [B]Sharks [/B]to finally come right agaisnt a Genia-less Rebels This game is the only tough call, I'm going to be a bit contrary and go for the [B]Brumbies [/B]away from home, just a gut feeling I do think the Stormers are perhaps a capable team but we are traditionally awful travelers, compounded with the fact the the Canes despite having a slow start, seem to be back to their best, the one worry for the Canes would be our forward pack which is one of the best in the comp. Crusaders are gonna pump the Tahs, one of the best packs vs one of the worst packs backlines none withstanding, this could get ugly. Sunwolves are a good fighting team but they keep changing their lineup and at the best of times are easy to beat when dominated physically Lions should be up to the task. I expect a high scoring game. Chiefs actually look to be on the up and up, if any upset is going to happen I expect it to happen in this game, that said i sincerely hope not, Bulls look in great form and have dominated the rest of the Saffer teams, time to assert that dominance on a Kiwi team that's flagging. Again no reason why the Rebels can't win this game, Sharks have been shakey of late, I do feel like it's a bad game to rest Genia, it's a winnable away fixture and Genia is their talisman, one player does not make a team but he can make a difference. Without him the Sharks to dominate upfront and the Rebels to mentally check out. Brumbies win I suppose, Aussie derbies, who knows. [/QUOTE]
