Saders played well, Tahs played well, Chiefs played well, Stormers and Canes played well and the Sharks had a bad day in the office. Who's going to miss out on the Semi's. The ones that have to travel or those that get to stay at Home? Saders look pretty safe what about the rest.

Just watched the Chiefs/Saders replay, wow Stephen Donald had a blinder I retract anything bad I've ever said about him. He could be the AB no. 10 if Dan is injured/OS. Serious skills and vision that lad...

<<Woot Grant... FINALLY in front!>>

Yes and the way I am going with my picks this year you should be ashamed of yourself. LOL
Good to see your team finally get some wins. They did my team a favour last week.

Hi, hey what was of Christian Cullen, the golden boy? Is he still playing somewhere?
I support the Kiwi Hurricanes, but I think the Crusaders are to win the games, again.

Yes they do. I said at the start of the season the Crusaders win games. Sometimes ugly, sometimes we see 80 minutes of brilliance and sometimes they just manage to get over the line. They don't have the best talent in the world across the park but they are the best team in the world. Average players give 100% and contribute to a fantastic team display. Ellis's try last week went through 12 sets of hands. No one dropped the ball, no one throw a bad pass, no one was selfish and no one was in the wrong place at the wrong time. But the first half they couldn't get over the line. They do enough to win a game. Something other teams should look at.

By the way the Crusaders have scored 350% more points than their opposition this year. That is impressive.

If the Blues are going to salvage this season they need some surgery fast. I think they need to take the pressure off Flavell and givethe capaincy to someone like Mealamu who leads by example. Flavell is a great player and if he could concentrate on his own game for 80 mins it would make a huge difference to their pick and drive around the ruck.

I'd also bring Nacewa into 12 to give them another kicking option to gain territory. They keep trying to score from inside their own half and its just not working.

If they spent more time building phases in opposition terriory they would have score more often.

Just my thoughts.

Just watched the Blues game and man, what has happened to these guys??? I've always doubted Nucifora, very glad he isn't the next Wallabies coach! Don't know if it's his fault that they're once again wasting another promising start to the season, but I doubt a good coach would see a team stall like this as many times as he has!

ACT won't make the finals, but a promising performance nonetheless. It'll be interesting to see how they go against the Sharks this week. Moreso to see how the Sharks go away against a team bouyed by a good away win.

The problems are way bigger than the coach. Lam would do a better job, not because he is a better coach, but his style is more suited to Auckland's normal game.
I hope you supporters of Auckland give the next coach a few years because you aren't going to be much better in the short term.

Re:Super 14 thread !!! Reply to this message
Well, i guess four years and no GF means time for a change.The blues have been woeful since 2004.I remember the days when everyone wanted to play for them,now everyone wants to leave.They lack the depth, they lack the composure, they lack the flair and the mental toughness.They have become a bunch of girls in Blue.

It may not be Nuciforas fault but maybe his game plan is inept in this day and age.The Forwards used to control the game..now you don't know who's in control cause they are all over the place...

What's with the Saders?? They wonder around with their thumb up their nose, singing lullabies until... the other team score and are looking a threat.. finally and then the clowns open up... call it flair, call it exciting, to me, it's hand to the throat and I'm kinda getting sick of it.

No I meant Don is back!
ACT are a pretty average team and will finish in the middle of the table. Against the Blues they produced perhaps their best game of the season.
Well the Blues, what can you say. Captain Spastic leads from the front. They have the talent but not the team. The coach isn't to blame in that he is one of the better in the comp but he just can't get these guys to play like a team. Everyone is calling for Nucifora to go and that will make a difference but mainly because the players won't have any excuses.

Re:Super 14 thread !!! Reply to this message
Well Gk, I think they are as back as they're ever going to be this season. That was the first time all year the Broombs have had their top line up on the park and they were very good around the ruck.

They may not have the tank to make the finals but I reckon they will upset a few people along the way.

What's happened ot the Blues??? They looked interested for about 5 minutes on the weekend. I thought they would climb out of their slumber for this game and hammer the broombs, but they looked like they were asleep.

There is soemthing horribly wrong over there at the mo and I don't think you can point all the blame at the coach.

Any ideas?

Smokin Joe Rococoko is out for the rest of the S14 and at least half of the international season. He has to have surgery on his wrist. One of the few Blues players to mturn up in the last couple of weeks, a big blow for them.

Looks like the Highlanders are no longer cellar dwellars, that dubious honour goes to someonr else for a while at least.

Well done to them.
