@stargazer I was looking the other night at the standings and it seems unlikely to me that the composition of the top eight will change from here.
Sharks, Bulls and (especially) Brumbies have difficult programmes to finish and the other teams are effectively gone (Stormers still a mathematical chance).
Agree that the makeup of teams wont change but with a number of NZ derbies to come it is possible that the Jaguares can move up the ranks and screw things up a bit. Rebs and Tahs could swap too.

@pakman Spots 1 to 3 on the table are made up of the conference leaders (Crusaders, Tahs, Lions). The rest of the 8 are best of the rest.
So the maximum number of kiwi derbies possible in the quarterfinals is 2 (as 1 plays 8, 2 plays 7, 3 plays 6 and 4 plays 5).

As predicted at the beginning, the Tahs would own the Australian conference and come home with a wet sail.

@kiwimurph be better if the Blues could avoid the Crusaders, Chiefs, Highlanders and HUrricanes....

Also in the draw - confirmation that Super Rugby 2019 will run uninterrupted (no June international break)
That was also the case in the last World Cup year wasn’t it? No June tours in World Cup year.

Crusaders have a pretty rugged regular season draw. No Sunwolves plus the bye in the final round effectively means only one break in the regular season.
Plus nine games - including six derbies - before we get to the first bye. We're going to have the shit beaten out of us!
On the plus side, we do get a week off before the play-offs, if we make it that far.

@unite Yes. Though my understanding is moving forward there will be no more June breaks.
Awesome.
