@taniwharugby That huge win brings them right back in a wildcard position.
.
Some great tries in that game as well. Awesome seeing a loosie (Matera) chase his own kick and score from it!
-
@Stargazer did you watch the Jaguares? I'm thinking of finding a replay to look at - but if it's an error riddled mess then probably not worth it!
Edit: asking if anyone has seen it and recommends it as a watch

@Stargazer get your pesky hands off him Highlanders.

-
@Canes4life Well, if the Canes don't offer him a (development) contract ...
I doubt he'll see any/much game time for the Landers, but it will be a good experience training with them. It's expecially great because of that combo with Fakatava that will continue in the Mitre 10 Cup season.
-
@Higgins Yeah, that's exactly what the missus and I concluded, last night (I saw a post from McC on instagram that he was in Dunedin and we hoped/thought that he might have received the call-up from the Highlanders). Only one sentence in the Hawke's Bay Today article about the weekend's club rugby confirmed the call-up. Weird that they didn't discuss it further.

Sorry, forgot to answer. I have only seen the highlights, so I don't know whether the whole game is worth watching. I think I'll record the replay on Sky Sport 1 tomorrow morning at 11.25am and watch it later, if I can find the time. I think that is the only replay; the rest seems to be highlights only.

From Yealden:
Random Super Rugby stat of the day:
- In the first four games this season (Blues, Hurricanes, Reds & Chiefs) the Crusaders have outscored their opposition 79-17 in the first half, but were outscored in the second half 67-62 of those same fixtures
- In their last four games (Waratahs, Hurricanes, Brumbies & Highlanders) the Crusaders have been outscored 40-31 in the first half, but have outscored their opposition in the second half 92-19 😲
That's all ... as you were 🤓

Everyone look at the tipping superstar bragging. I'm 0-3.

Bloody good competition this year. Not many games you know the result before kick off (unless the Crusaders are at home).

Pretty sad to see two NZ teams at the bottom of the table - Sunwolves are almost a non team and are mostly Kiwi anyway!
But then when you look at the points difference from 5th ~ 14th is only one bonus win 5 pointer - it's as close as it's ever been.
2nd and 3rd are only 2 and 1 points ahead of that, too
Saders > daylight > canes> the rest > wolves pretty much sums it up. Saders +121 points differential!

@antipodean the big thing is the 75% weighting to historical data
