    In case anyone gives a shit this is what the table would have looked like going into the trans Ta$man comp. Crusaders Blues both got 2 points for their cancelled game.

    @chimoaus that table is so unfair

    The Reds and the Brumbies weren't lucky enough to get to play the Chiefs twice

      So if it starts from scratch it is possible multiple teams could win 5 from 5 and it would come down to BP and PD. I almost would have thought the Aussies would have wanted the points to carry over to at least give them a shot of being in the top 2.

        This could happen. But at least this outcome will show how a 12 team competition would be a waste of time. And bad for Aussie rugby

          @chimoaus yeah seems like a missed opportunity to give the Aussies a chance without it being a complete gimme.

          Under this system it's very likely the best two Kiwi sides will play two finals IMO.

          Oh wells. Should be good regardless.

            Do they have a final in the SRA 2021 comp or is it just points based?

                I can only imagine the poor analysts at the start of round 5 trying to predict the possible outcomes when 5 or 6 teams could all make the top 2.

                  https://www.rugbypass.com/news/hurricanes-sign-freakish-wellington-teenager-as-2021-squad-nears-completion/

                  Four of the five New Zealand Super Rugby franchises will announce their 2021 squads on December 1, with the Crusaders reportedly expected to name their squad the following day.

                  For some reason I thought it was the 3rd. 4 out of 5 of the Super squads are named tomorrow.

                    The Crusaders confirmed they were to name their squad on Dec 2nd But I also thought the other squads were released on Dec 3rd

                        I read 7 am on Thu morning for the Chiefs unless that has also now changed.

                        Edit: This is what is written at the end of the articles about the re-signing of Ta'avao and Weber.

                        The 2021 Gallagher Chiefs Squad will be officially announced on Thursday 3 December.

                              The franchise confirmed ahead of this week's squad announcement for 2021 (7am Thursday) that their entire coaching group had reupped for next season at least as they look to make further ground in the wake of their 2020 breakthrough.

                                    @Tim I reckon if he hadnt missed almost 2 full seasons with concussion issues, Kane Jacobson would be on a full contract somewhere, TBH I'm surprised he has made it back!

                                    At 27, I think a super career has likely passed him by.

                                    Also Matich wont let anyone down.

                                      Anyone else going to pick a 38 man squad for their team? Midfield looks the hardest to cover this year.

                                        Anyone else going to pick a 38 man squad for their team? Midfield looks the hardest to cover this year.

                                        @Tim I had already done that for the Chiefs with some bracketed players.

                                          Wonder if anyone will try to sign Meihana Grindlay away from the Blues?
