    It's probably raining in Suva. I guess that would make it harder to get Fantasy points?

      The simple life of not getting lost walking around corridors. Old school keys. Being able to open windows and not having the shame of walking through a reception area.looking like death. Give me a motel any day

          @Yeetyaah Blues playing in Fiji, in what looks like average weather conditions.

          So you should definitely back Beaudy! 😉

                  Interesting quarter finals for the Chiefs and Brumbies?

                  In week one of the Finals Series, Qualifying Finals will be 1 v 6, 2 v 5 and 3 v 4 with the higher-seeded teams to host
                  The three winners of the Qualifying Finals will progress to the Semi-Finals
                  They will be joined by the highest-seeded losing team (the ‘lucky loser’), who will drop one seeding for the Semi-Final draw
                  Semi-Finals will be 1 v 4 and 2 v 3 with the higher-seeded teams to host

                    I'm going to guess this:

                    Pos Team Pts
                    1 Chiefs 51
                    2 Crusaders 51
                    3 Brumbies 44
                    4 Reds 41
                    5 Hurricanes 36
                    6 Blues 36

                        If we finish 1st, a first round against the Blues may make me change my mind about allowing the highest ranked loser to advance..

                          Hearing the Ofa Tu’ungafasi injury could possibly be career ending , has a neck injury similar to the issue that ended Springbok prop Steven Kitshoff ‘s career which left him with severly reduced neck rotation
                          Lets hope we see Ofa back on field sometime in the future but if i was totally honest as a father i would be advising him to pull the pin
                          Has anyone else heard similar whispers ?

                            Spotted Ofa in public a week or so back, had a neck brace on (obviously).

                                Fk I love that sort of coaching aye. No need to raise the voice, no need to lay down the law, just a very subtle way of getting a message across to his team. Definitely worked this week.

                                  A few millimetres is the difference between full recovery and retirement.

                                  But safety absolutely paramount.

                                    Don't bet anything you can't afford - especially until Will is declared fit.

                                    I'm expecting the Chiefs to win - but, it's a season where away from home victories could easily happen.

                                    Wouldn't surprise me if the Canes won.

                                    Anyone in the six is a chance.

                                      I doubt that the Blues can win from 6th (assuming they even make it), but they have a team of guys who are starting to look a lot better now that they have a starting HB directing them. It should be a cracking finals series and I actually don't expect us to win, there are just too many hard games, which makes for a great comp.

                                        @gt12 It's quite possible that if the Blues beat the Chiefs in the quarter finals, then they would return to Hamilton to play them again in the semifinal.

                                          You fluffybunnies will no doubt roll us but I'd hope we wouldn't get tripped up two weeks in a row.
                                          We need to lock in 1st though, that seems crucial this year
