So with the lucky loser dropping to the last seed, this would've been the SF's
Crusaders v Chiefs
Brumbies v BluesSeems tough on the new top seed but at least the loser gets punished more
That seems a better system. Losing in the finals should be painful, getting the second life is reward enough

@Canes4life got my timing out by a week
-
@Canes4life I'm not sure I like the idea of the Super Round as games played in front of neutral fans lack atmosphere, but at least his year it should be played in a full or nearly full stadium.

I don’t mind it. They should try and incorporate a party atmosphere. I think Chch with the new stadium will be a success.

Have had one person tell me ticketing will be through day passes. Interested to see what the schedule will be.

Makes most sense to leave the Force out, with how far they have to travel.

Make the Aussie teams give up a home game this time.
I’ll be super pissed if the Canes lose a home game considering we’ve had to play in Canberra for the last twenty years.

Brumbies and Canes, and Blues vs Reds on Saturday I believe.
Friday and Saturday will be the sort after days. I think a lot of those travelling will head home on Sunday.

Financially better to have it as a home game. 30k crowd and gate takings v what would turn up at the Cake Tin to watch a game against the Brumbies? They'd make more money!
I'd guess teams will be clambering to have this weekend as 'home games'.

Hopefully they can sought out the schedule soon.
