QF - Hurricanes vs Rebels

I am sure the Rebels are on the piss already. Those making the Wallabies already know they are in, everyone else is unemployed.

@antipodean only 1 game of the quarters looks like it wont be a flogging.

If it were a 6 team finals, you'd just skip the 1v8 and 2v7 that is silly. You'd still have the Brumbies Highlanders and Chiefs Reds.
Chiefs REds looks the game of the round.

Hopefully next year it will be like this with the top two teams taking a week off. If players require mins they could play club rugby e.g. Shields and Lomax.

The only one where the favourite is 'only' at $1.22 and playign their bogey team.
The comp is broken when you have favouritism in playoffs like this.

@nzzp I was asking Taniwha what one he had in mind… because you know, as you posted above, they are all hot favorites so I was asking for his opinion.
Cheers though

WTF. The short lock disease has returned. Or at least replacement lock.
Im pleased Rayasi starts. After week after week of both wings doing SFA. THEN RAYASI HAD 2 WEEKS WHERE HE WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE AND THEN OUTSTANDING
f++K caps lock

@Winger I knew he wouldn’t replace Moorby but I can see why he’s started. Just hope the ‘good’ Rayasi turns up and not the ‘dumb’ Rayasi.

Hope so too. And also Moorby starts playing instead of just going through the motions
Canes need to do a lot more on keeping fans up to date on these injuries. We esp need Lomax back even though Tosi is going very well he's missed as an impact Powerhouse
Unavailable: Cam Roigard, Caleb Delany, Tyrel Lomax, Ben Grant
https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/350300439/super-rugby-pacific-teams-named-quarterfinals
But when is he due back??
All Blacks tighthead prop Tyrel Lomax remains on the sidelines with bone bruising to his ankle. Pasilio Tosi will continue his streak of playing every Hurricanes match this season, in the No 3 jersey alongside Xavier Numia and Asafo Aumua, who made an encouraging return from a knee injury last weekend.

Severe bone bruising can take a couple months to recover from apparently. Hope he’s back next week.
