I thought the Highlanders skill levels were pretty average the week before but they played with a bit of spirit
This week, they came up against a team with similar skill level to their own but maybe were a bit more desperate

Saders got he benefit of the doubt with the contentious decisions for the second game running but tbf probably just about deserved to edge it
IMO, this game didnt answer too many questions about the Waratah's potential to go a long way in the comp but it's difficult to imagine them doing much when their halves are playing so badly
Blues - horrible

Absolutely outstanding performance from the Stormers tonight and quite frankly they demolished the Chiefs. Without three of their All Blacks the Chiefs weren't at full strength again (Muliana, Sivivatu, de Malmanche) but I doubt it would've had much of an impact. Burger, Bekker, Fourie, Grant, Habana, Liebenberg, Vermuelen all particularly brilliant. Habana's try (and the lead-up top it) must rate as one of the best in the competition. Put it this way, I can't remember a more comprehensive display from a South African side in New Zealand in all the matches I've watched in this competition over the years.

I have put $5 on the Hurricanes.
I am not impressed by the TAB web site's activity report seems to only go back for a month. I want to see all my bets since the beginning of time.
I sent them an email once with such a request. They said they would feed it through to the higher ups.

Good bet that turned out to be, well done. The way the first 20 minutes went I'm surprised they won by such a margin in the end - I put it down to the Brumbies being woefully off the pace just as much as the Hurricanes hanging on despite having few opportunities to score points.

Who's that Number 10 for the Hurricanes? Never heard of him before. Absolutely woeful kicking, passing, and general play display from him I thought. Luckily though, the Brumbies were shocking in everything they did.
Going into the RWC next year, quite concerned at our lack of depth.

Aaron Cruden, wasn't it? Thought he was a decent talent when I saw him for Manawatu in the ANZ (which is obviously a different level, but basic skills one should be able to spot - and they didn't finish last as usual, so he must have something going for him)
