Crusaders really depends if they turn around from last week - they should have won against the Bulls, they're looking very sub par atm - only the Cheetahs win was decent.
Hurricanes Rebels (this shall be close) Chiefs Brumbies Crusaders (another close one, banking on the Saders to turn around) Bulls

Sooo the Lions Sharks game should be good and the battle of the south for the rivalry but apart from that no great games on paper.
If the Stormers can actually play like they did in the 2nd then yes but otherwise the Tahs will be too much for em.
Sharks are favs to win the match yet I am alone in backing them. I had better check the injury list to see if I am missing something.
I thought long and hard about that one. I have changed mine to Sharks now too to try and get a leg up on those above me.
