Super 15 Rugby

[godoubleblues]

I thought this could do with its own thread, could get confusing on the other rugby thread with the 6 nations going on at the same time

[godoubleblues]

games for this week, round 2 as follows

Highlanders v Chiefs
Rebels v Brumbies
Cheetahs v Bulls
Hurricanes v Crusaders
Tahs v Reds
Sharks v Blues
Stormers v Lions

some more good games this weekend, how will the Rebels go
also the derby between the Tahs and Reds, Tahs were good last week but the Reds were far from convincing in beating the Western Force

some interesting travel in this comp, the Blues spend the next 2 weekends in South Africa then stop off in Perth on the way back to play the Force

[Dogmatic]

There are some pretty good streaks going with h2h battles this week.
Chiefs
Bulls
Sharks
Tahs
Stormers

Come out of that with a 4-0 record, and they could be on the way to NZ conf title

Put some cash on the Tahs to beat the reds, sportsbet.com.au have a promotion where if you back a team to win head to head and they lose by less than 3 you get your money back in a free bet.
Last week I had some pretty comfortable money on the tahs, hopefully it continues his week!

[Jim05]

Tahs easily

[godoubleblues]

due to the earthquake the Crusaders v Hurricanes match this weekend has been cancelled and called a draw for both teams
the Crusaders withdrew from the game and the Hurricanes fully supported their decision

tough times for the Crusaders

[Jim05]

Highlanders 23-13 chiefs
Picked the highlanders by 7 and chiefs missed an easy penalty with a minute left

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

Melbourne still half a chance here, trail 15-19 with 20 to play

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

Mortlock scores Melbourne's first ever try ever and they now lead 22-19 with about 6 minutes to play.

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

ACT hit back, 24-22, questionable try, looked like a certain forward pass.

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

Cipriani scores a penalty and wins Melbourne the game, 25-24 what a finish.

[Jim05]

Ref gives a dodgy penalty
Rebels win.
Enjoy it while you can you pricks it will be the only one you will win.
We were shit tonight, absolute disgrace

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

Ref gives a dodgy penalty

What about the forward pass for the late ACT try? Fair square up IMO.

Nah no complaints, it evened up.
We were rubbish, we should have scored 10 trys tonight the ammount of times we had the ball only 10metres from line.
Rebels toughed it out but cant see them winning too many, they play a very stagnant, negative style of game.

[Wedgie]

What a brilliant result, well done Rebels, I hate the Brumbies!

[Wedgie]

Great win by the 'Tahs tonight, getting the bonus point against the Reds!
What a game of attrition, be a lot of sore boys tonight!

[Wedgie]

Brumbies coach has been sacked.
I also put some money on the 'Tahs to winthe Australian conference, barring a heap on injuries I can't see that losing.
Also put a tiny amount on them to win he whole thing but knowing the 'Tahs thats a longshot!

Good he was a muppet.
Now hopefully larkham will take over next season.
Also happy to be written off this early, its the same story every year, we just go about business quietly whilst the tahs and reds get pumped up by everyone only to fail as usual
