3rd place is the 2nd game on Saturday

Epic Brumbies academy v Hurricanes academy

real possibility would be a BS scenario.

The Canes can risk it by sending a B team over but then if the Blues all of a sudden beat the Chiefs (which is unlikely) the Canes will be in the shit. I can see them starting their best side and then pulling guys at halftime which any team would do in that scenario.

I hope they don't if they pull players at HT fair enough that is smart protecting your players.
I hope the Canes smoke the Brumbies to stick it up their whining boring fans.
Something like 50 -0 would be great .

We beat them pretty well a few weeks back so hopefully the Canes can do the job.

Have to beat Moana today first.

Yeah - I'd be pretty happy to have the Reds first up, so don't fuck it up!

I tend to think the Reds and the Brumbies are good match-ups for us - Canes and the Chiefs, not so much.

They are just if not more pathetic.

So, done and dusted I think:

1 Chiefs v 6. Blues
2 Crusaders v 5. Reds
3 Brumbies v 4. Hurricanes

Not unhappy with that!

First time I’ll be rooting for both the Chiefs and Crusaders in a while.

This should e a cracking couple of weeks coming up with so many teams in form and playing well.

Reds to beat the Crusaders on Friday, Chiefs to throw their game on Saturday to eliminate the Crusaders and still retain top spot. Don't care about the other game.

Duluth

Three games away from being back to back champs

Lol if that happens and the Canes win you’ll play the Blues again in the semi.

We would then host the Reds.

Can’t see it happening.

Ioane getting cocky because he scored three tries against a weak Tahs team to make him look good.

There's many things you can rightfully say about Ioane but getting cocky is not one of them!

If that happened the Chiefs wouldn’t be ranked 1st out of the remaining 4. They drop a ranking to 2nd. So the Blues and Chiefs would be in different semis

No it wouldn’t because both the Crusaders and Brumbies would be out. So the rankings would go Chiefs, Canes, Reds, Blues wouldn’t it? Or would the Canes then go top?
