@nostrildamus nobody is chasing whitelock are they, he has retired? Frizzell has been mentioned previously.
Fihaki is a bizarre selection so there's really no need to make stuff up re bias. -

Draws been leaked online.
Opening game is Crusaders v Hurricanes on the 14th of Feb.
Waratahs v Highlanders also on Friday night.
Blues v Chiefs on Saturday at Eden Park.
Interesting.
Must be a deliberate plan to repeat the final in Round 1 given it happened this year too.

Love this, probably the first time in 5 years the Canes haven't kicked their season off overseas.

So the Blues get a game at Eden Park straight away. This year the first one was round 5, the year before it was round 4
Generally to do with limited overs cricket, but as the BCs are away in Pakistan there is no issue this year.

Highlanders must be playing the Tahs 2x. Would seem bizarre that we would play them away three years in a row.

Hurricanes playing Blues in their first home game of the season in round 3

so no super round? i always thought it was a good idea that had just been poorly executed in Melbourne and would work in QLD

From memory, it has been axed for this year.
The bright idea is to bring it back next year.
In Perth. Definitely a recipe for success.

it doesnt seem that hard to understand, play it where you will get crowds, at least for enough years so as to make it "a thing"...that then smaller markets might want to get involved
